Report Industry Investment Rating There is no information about the industry investment rating in the report. Core Viewpoint - The overall sentiment in the commodity market was positive yesterday, and the prices of finished steel products continued to fluctuate weakly within the bottom range. The supply and demand of hot-rolled coils both declined, and the inventory level gradually decreased and approached a relatively reasonable range. For rebar, production increased against the seasonal trend, apparent demand continued to weaken, and inventory began to accumulate slightly, but the overall pressure remained limited. The black - series prices continued to oscillate within the bottom range. The actual terminal demand for steel remains weak, and the macro - level is currently in a policy vacuum period. Attention should be paid to the inventory reduction progress of hot - rolled coils, the possible marginal strengthening of "dual - carbon" policies, and their impact on the supply - demand pattern of the steel industry [2]. - The price of iron ore adjusted at a high level due to fluctuations in the commodity market sentiment and unexpected accident disturbances, showing a short - term oscillatory and weak trend. The overseas iron ore shipping volume continued to decline, and the proximal port arrivals decreased. The daily average pig iron output was basically flat, and the profitability of steel mills improved. The port inventory continued to accumulate, and the inventory of imported ore in steel mills continued to rise. The follow - up focus is on the restocking of steel mills and the rhythm of pig iron production [5]. - The prices of ferrosilicon and silicomanganese were affected by the retreat of market sentiment. The supply - demand pattern of silicomanganese was still loose, and that of ferrosilicon basically remained balanced. The future market trends of the two are mainly affected by the overall market sentiment, the cost increase of manganese ore in the silicomanganese segment, and the possible supply contraction in the ferrosilicon segment [9][10]. - The prices of coking coal and coke oscillated and declined last week due to the retreat of market sentiment. In the future, the overall commodity market may maintain a bullish sentiment, but the main focus is on precious metals and non - ferrous metals. The supply - demand relationship between coking coal, coke, and downstream pig iron is relatively balanced, but the low inventory operation strategy of steel enterprises weakens the price - driving effect of restocking. The prices of coking coal and coke are expected to oscillate and strengthen, with short - term market sentiment shocks and high - volatility risks [14][15]. - The price of industrial silicon oscillated and closed higher. The supply decreased due to the furnace shutdown of integrated enterprises, and the demand weakened due to the production reduction of polysilicon enterprises. If the production reduction of large northwest factories is implemented, the supply - demand relationship is expected to improve. The price is expected to oscillate repeatedly, and attention should be paid to the implementation of production reduction and the production adjustment rhythm of downstream enterprises [18]. - The "anti - involution" expectation in the polysilicon industry is unclear, and the market is mainly in a wait - and - see state. The supply pressure is expected to ease, and the high - inventory pressure may be alleviated. The futures position and liquidity have fallen to a relatively low level, and the price is expected to fluctuate in the short term. Attention should be paid to spot transactions and changes in exchange risk - control measures [20]. - The glass market sentiment turned from strong to weak, and the price oscillated and corrected. The supply was at a low level, the demand was weak, and the inventory was still higher than the same period in previous years. The supply - demand pattern remained in a loose balance, and the price is expected to oscillate widely in the short term [23]. - The price of soda ash continued to oscillate weakly due to the decline of the glass market. The supply was abundant, the demand was weak, and the inventory pressure remained. The market is in a supply - demand game, and the price is expected to maintain a weak consolidation trend in the short term [25]. Summary by Directory Steel Rebar - The closing price of the rebar main contract in the afternoon was 3124 yuan/ton, up 7 yuan/ton (0.224%) from the previous trading day. The registered warehouse receipts on that day were 28,244 tons, with no change from the previous day. The position of the main contract was 1.7473 million lots, an increase of 5,016 lots. In the spot market, the aggregated price in Tianjin was 3,160 yuan/ton, and that in Shanghai was 3,270 yuan/ton, both with no change [1]. - The production of rebar increased against the seasonal trend, the apparent demand continued to weaken, and the inventory began to accumulate slightly, but the overall pressure remained limited [2].

Iron Ore - The main contract of iron ore (I2605) closed at 786.50 yuan/ton, with a change of +0.32% (+2.50). The position changed by - 8,780 lots to 566,500 lots. The weighted position was 915,900 lots. The spot price of PB powder at Qingdao Port was 797 yuan/wet ton, with a basis of 60.30 yuan/ton and a basis rate of 7.12% [4]. - The overseas iron ore shipping volume continued to decline, and the proximal port arrivals decreased. The daily average pig iron output was basically flat, and the profitability of steel mills improved. The port inventory continued to accumulate, and the inventory of imported ore in steel mills continued to rise. The price adjusted at a high level and showed a short - term oscillatory and weak trend. The follow - up focus is on the restocking of steel mills and the rhythm of pig iron production [5]. Manganese Silicon and Ferrosilicon Manganese Silicon - On January 22, the main contract of manganese silicon (SM605) rebounded slightly, closing up 0.48% at 5,814 yuan/ton. The spot price of 6517 manganese silicon in Tianjin was 5,670 yuan/ton, up 20 yuan/ton from the previous day, with a conversion to the futures price of 5,860 yuan/ton, a premium of 46 yuan/ton over the futures price. The price was in an oscillatory consolidation stage, and attention should be paid to the pressure levels at 6,000 yuan/ton and 6,250 yuan/ton and the support levels at 5,800 yuan/ton and 5,700 yuan/ton [7][8]. - The supply - demand pattern of manganese silicon was still loose, and there was an expectation of new capacity release. The inventory was high, and the demand from the downstream building materials industry was weak. However, these factors have mostly been reflected in the price. The future trend is mainly affected by the overall market sentiment and the cost increase of manganese ore [9][10]. Ferrosilicon - The main contract of ferrosilicon (SF603) closed up 0.97% at 5,610 yuan/ton. The spot price of 72 ferrosilicon in Tianjin was 5,800 yuan/ton, up 20 yuan/ton from the previous day, a premium of 190 yuan/ton over the futures price. The price showed a short - term weak trend, and attention should be paid to the pressure levels at 5,850 yuan/ton and 6,000 yuan/ton and the support levels at 5,500 yuan/ton and 5,450 yuan/ton [8]. - The supply - demand structure of ferrosilicon basically remained balanced, and there was a marginal improvement due to the maintenance and production conversion of some factories. The future trend is mainly affected by the overall market sentiment and the possible supply contraction due to losses or "dual - carbon" policies [10]. Coking Coal and Coke Coking Coal - On January 22, the main contract of coking coal (JM2605) rebounded after hitting the bottom, closing up 0.22% at 1,131.5 yuan/ton. The spot price of low - sulfur main coking coal in Shanxi was 1,589.8 yuan/ton, with no change. The converted warehouse - receipt price was 1,400 yuan/ton, a premium of 268.5 yuan/ton over the futures price. The price was in a daily - level rebound cycle, but the trend was significantly weakened. Attention should be paid to the support at 1,130 yuan/ton and the rebound trend line below, and the pressure at 1,260 yuan/ton above [12][13]. - The price of coking coal oscillated and declined last week due to the retreat of market sentiment. The supply gradually recovered after the New Year's Day, and the pig iron repair was slightly less than expected, resulting in a marginal loosening of the supply - demand relationship. Considering the pre - holiday restocking of downstream enterprises, the overall supply - demand relationship between coking coal and downstream pig iron remained relatively balanced. The price is expected to oscillate and strengthen, with short - term market sentiment shocks and high - volatility risks [14][15]. Coke - The main contract of coke (J2605) closed up 0.27% at 1,688 yuan/ton. The spot price of quasi - first - grade wet - quenched coke at Rizhao Port was 1,450 yuan/ton, with no change. The converted warehouse - receipt price was 1,704 yuan/ton, a premium of 16 yuan/ton over the futures price. The price broke below the short - term rebound trend line, and attention should be paid to the support at 1,650 yuan/ton [12][13]. - The price of coke oscillated and declined last week due to the retreat of market sentiment. The supply - demand relationship also showed a marginal loosening. Considering the pre - holiday restocking of downstream enterprises, the overall supply - demand relationship between coke and downstream pig iron remained relatively balanced. The price is expected to oscillate and strengthen, with short - term market sentiment shocks and high - volatility risks [14][15]. Industrial Silicon and Polysilicon Industrial Silicon - The closing price of the main contract of industrial silicon (SI2605) was 8,825 yuan/ton, with a change of +0.51% (+45). The weighted contract position increased by 3,164 lots to 365,402 lots. The spot price of 553 non - oxygen - blown industrial silicon in East China was 9,200 yuan/ton, with no change, and the basis of the main contract was 375 yuan/ton. The price of 421 was 9,650 yuan/ton, with no change, and the basis of the main contract after conversion was 25 yuan/ton [17]. - The price of industrial silicon oscillated and closed higher. The supply decreased due to the furnace shutdown of integrated enterprises in Sichuan and Inner Mongolia and the increase in the number of open furnaces in Xinjiang. The demand weakened due to the production reduction of polysilicon enterprises. If the production reduction of large northwest factories is implemented, the supply - demand relationship is expected to improve. The price is expected to oscillate repeatedly, and attention should be paid to the implementation of production reduction and the production adjustment rhythm of downstream enterprises [18]. Polysilicon - The closing price of the main contract of polysilicon (PS2605) was 50,515 yuan/ton, with a change of +1.64% (+815). The weighted contract position decreased by 678 lots to 86,469 lots.

The basis of the main contract was 3,485 yuan/ton [19]. - The "anti - involution" expectation in the polysilicon industry is unclear, and the market is mainly in a wait - and - see state. The supply pressure is expected to ease, and the high - inventory pressure may be alleviated. The futures position and liquidity have fallen to a relatively low level, and the price is expected to fluctuate in the short term. Attention should be paid to spot transactions and changes in exchange risk - control measures [20]. Glass and Soda Ash Glass - The main contract of glass closed at 1,039 yuan/ton on Thursday afternoon, a decrease of 1.61% (-17). The price of large - size glass in North China was 1,010 yuan, a decrease of 10 yuan from the previous day; the price in Central China was 1,060 yuan, with no change.

The supply was abundant, the demand was weak, and the inventory pressure remained. The market is in a supply - demand game, and the price is expected to maintain a weak consolidation trend in the short term, with the main contract reference price range of 1,123 - 1,220 yuan/ton [25].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The mid - term outlook for the black building materials industry is "oscillation" [6] 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - Recently, there have been accidents in some steel mills, and environmental protection and production restrictions still exist, causing disturbances on the supply side. Based on the subsequent resumption of production by steel mills and winter storage replenishment, the prices of furnace materials have stabilized, and there is support at the cost end. However, the pressure of inventory accumulation in the steel sector during the off - season is becoming more apparent, the fundamentals lack highlights, and the upside space of the market is limited. The prices of glass and soda ash have risen from low levels, but the oversupply situation continues to suppress the market prices [1][2]. - In general, the fundamentals during the off - season are lackluster. Before the Spring Festival, continue to pay attention to the replenishment intensity of downstream enterprises. At the same time, the resumption of production by steel enterprises in January is expected to further boost the replenishment expectation, and the prices of furnace materials still have the expectation of a rebound from low levels. Pay attention to the disturbances of macro - policies [3]. 3. Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Iron Element - Supply increment expectation and inventory pressure are gradually increasing. There are still expectations of disturbances on the supply side due to weather. The pre - festival replenishment on the demand side supports the ore price. The current supply and demand on both sides need to be verified, and it is expected to oscillate in the short term. The supply of scrap steel has recovered, and the daily consumption is expected to decline. The overall fundamentals will weaken marginally, and the spot price is expected to follow the finished product [2]. 3.2 Carbon Element - For coke, the cost end still has room for a rebound, and there are still expectations of steel mill production resumption and winter storage replenishment demand. The supply - demand structure of coke may gradually tighten, the spot price increase will still be implemented, and the market is expected to follow coking coal. For coking coal, the winter storage on the demand side is still ongoing, and the production of coal mines is expected to decline as the holiday approaches. The fundamentals of coking coal will continue to improve marginally, and the spot price still has upward momentum, but the bullish drive of the fundamentals is limited after the trading logic changes, and it is expected to oscillate [2]. 3.3 Alloys - For ferromanganese - silicon, the cost support has loosened, the market supply - demand pattern is loose, the upstream inventory reduction pressure is large, and the market price is under pressure above; however, the current futures price has fallen to a low - level range, and the space for further decline is limited. It is expected that the price will mainly operate at a low level around the cost valuation. For ferrosilicon, the current supply and demand in the market are both weak, the fundamental contradictions are relatively limited, and it is expected that the futures price will mainly follow the sector in the short term [3]. 3.4 Glass and Soda Ash - For glass, there are still expectations of supply disturbances, but the inventories of the middle and lower reaches are moderately high. From a fundamental perspective, the current supply and demand are still in surplus. If there is no more cold repair before the end of the year, the high inventory will always suppress the price, and it is expected to oscillate weakly; otherwise, the price will rise. For soda ash, the overall supply and demand are still in surplus. It is expected to oscillate in the short term. In the long run, the oversupply pattern will further intensify, and the price center will still decline, promoting capacity reduction [3]. 3.5 Steel - The spot market trading is weak. The profitability of steel mills continues to improve. The iron and steel production has stopped falling and stabilized, and the production of the five major steel products has remained stable month - on - month. The demand is seasonally weak, the inventory accumulation pressure in the off - season is obvious, and the fundamental contradictions are slowly accumulating. The supply side is disturbed, the cost side has support, but the upside of the market is under pressure. Pay attention to the winter storage and replenishment rhythm of the furnace material end [8]. 3.6 Iron Ore - Overseas mine shipments have decreased month - on - month, and the arrivals this period have also declined. The supply side may be disturbed due to weather. The iron and steel production has increased slightly month - on - month, the steel mills' replenishment is in progress, but the enthusiasm is still weak. The port inventory continues to accumulate, and the overall inventory pressure is increasing. The supply increment expectation and inventory pressure are increasing, and the pre - festival replenishment on the demand side supports the price. The current supply and demand need to be verified, and it is expected to oscillate in the short term [8][9]. 3.7 Scrap Steel - The supply has recovered significantly, and the demand is expected to decline seasonally. The overall fundamentals will weaken marginally, and the spot price is expected to follow the finished product [10]. 3.8 Coke - The supply has slightly increased, the demand has recovered slightly, and the inventory has increased steadily. The cost end still has room for a small rebound, the supply - demand structure may tighten, the spot price increase will be implemented, and the market is expected to follow coking coal [12]. 3.9 Coking Coal - The domestic supply is stable, and the imported Mongolian coal has increased. The winter storage of coking enterprises is in progress, and the upstream inventory is being digested. The downstream inventory is gradually in place, and the spot market sentiment has cooled. The demand side's winter storage is still ongoing, the supply is expected to decline, the fundamentals will continue to improve marginally, the spot price still has a small upward momentum, but the bullish drive of the fundamentals is limited, and it is expected to oscillate [13]. 3.10 Glass - The macro is neutral. The supply is expected to decline in the long run, but it is difficult to have a large - scale cold repair in the short term. The downstream demand is weak, and the large inventory in the middle reaches suppresses the valuation. The supply may be disturbed, the current supply and demand are in surplus, and it is expected to oscillate weakly if there is no more cold repair before the end of the year; otherwise, the price will rise [13]. 3.11 Soda Ash - The macro is neutral. The supply has increased, the demand is weak, and the overall supply and demand are in surplus. The short - term is expected to oscillate, and in the long run, the oversupply pattern will further intensify, and the price center will decline [14][16]. 3.12 Ferromanganese - Silicon - The black sector is trending warmer, and the futures price of the main contract is moving stronger. The cost support has loosened, the market supply - demand pattern is loose, the upstream inventory reduction pressure is large, and the price is under pressure above. However, the current price has fallen to a low - level range, and it is expected to operate at a low level around the cost valuation. Pay attention to the adjustment of raw material prices and the production control efforts of manufacturers [15][16][18]. 3.13 Ferrosilicon - The supply and demand contradictions are limited, and the futures price of the main contract is following the sector to oscillate stronger. The cost is at a relatively high level and supports the price bottom. The supply and demand are both weak, the market trading activity is poor, and the futures price is expected to follow the black sector in the short term. Pay attention to the adjustment of blue carbon prices and settlement electricity prices and the production control trends in the main production areas [16][17]. 3.14 Commodity Index - On January 22, 2026, the comprehensive index, the special index (including the commodity index, the commodity 20 index, the industrial product index, and the PPI commodity index) all showed an upward trend. The steel industry chain index increased by 0.24% on the day, decreased by 1.81% in the past 5 days, increased by 0.03% in the past month, and increased by 0.05% since the beginning of the year [103][104].

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoints - The overall sentiment in the commodity market was positive yesterday, with finished steel prices showing a volatile and slightly stronger trend. Steel demand has officially entered the off - season, and the inventory pressure of hot - rolled coils remains. Attention should be paid to the actual progress of the production reduction rhythm and the tone of important meetings [2]. - Iron ore prices are expected to move within a volatile range, and attention should be paid to the impact of changes in the overall commodity environment on prices. Although the overall inventory of iron ore is still high, there are still structural contradictions, and the spot has certain support [5]. - For the black sector, it is more cost - effective to look for positions to make a rebound rather than continue to short. The positive impact of a series of macro - events in December on market sentiment is still worth looking forward to [10]. - Industrial silicon is expected to run weakly in the short term, with a weak supply - demand pattern and limited marginal changes in the real - world situation. The price of polysilicon is affected by factors such as production reduction, inventory, and delivery games, and the instability risk of the near - month contract is relatively high [13][15]. - The glass industry is still in the bottom - seeking stage, and the supply - demand contradiction has not been effectively alleviated. It is expected that the short - term market will continue to show a wide - range volatile trend. The soda ash market is expected to maintain a stable price in the short term, but it should still be viewed bearishly before the demand side shows obvious improvement [18][20]. 3. Summary by Categories Steel - **Market Quotes** - The closing price of the rebar main contract was 3169 yuan/ton, up 36 yuan/ton (1.149%) from the previous trading day. The hot - rolled coil main contract closed at 3319 yuan/ton, down 6 yuan/ton (- 0.18%) [1]. - **Strategy Views** - Rebar supply and demand both decreased, and inventory continued to decline. Hot - rolled coil production increased, apparent demand declined slightly, and inventory decreased only slightly. South Korea's anti - dumping tax on Chinese steel products will have a certain impact on steel exports [2]. Iron Ore - **Market Quotes** - The main contract (I2601) of iron ore closed at 799.50 yuan/ton, with a change of - 0.12% (- 1.00). The spot price of PB powder at Qingdao Port was 797 yuan/wet ton, with a basis of 47.30 yuan/ton and a basis rate of 5.59% [4]. - **Strategy Views** - In terms of supply, the overseas iron ore shipment volume remained stable. Australian shipments decreased slightly, Brazilian shipments increased significantly, and non - mainstream country shipments decreased slightly. In terms of demand, the daily average pig iron output decreased, the number of blast furnace overhauls increased significantly, and the profitability of steel mills was at a low level in the same period of the past three years [5]. Manganese Silicon and Ferrosilicon - **Market Quotes** - On December 3, the main contract of manganese silicon closed up 0.31% at 5746 yuan/ton, and the spot price in Tianjin was 5680 yuan/ton, with a premium of 124 yuan/ton over the futures. The main contract of ferrosilicon closed down 0.04% at 5446 yuan/ton, and the spot price in Tianjin was 5500 yuan/ton, with a premium of 54 yuan/ton over the futures [7][8]. - **Strategy Views** - The market sentiment has improved, but the black sector is still weak. Affected by the weak sentiment of coking coal, ferroalloys also showed a weak trend. There is no need to be overly pessimistic, and attention should be paid to the inflection point of market sentiment [9]. Industrial Silicon and Polysilicon - **Market Quotes** - The main contract of industrial silicon (SI2601) closed at 8920 yuan/ton, with a change of - 0.61% (- 55). The main contract of polysilicon (PS2601) closed at 57430 yuan/ton, with a change of + 1.98% (+ 1115) [12][14]. - **Strategy Views** - Industrial silicon production is decreasing, and demand is weak. Polysilicon production is expected to decline in December, but the decline may be limited. The inventory pressure before the Spring Festival is difficult to relieve, and the price of the near - month contract is unstable [13][15]. Glass and Soda Ash - **Market Quotes** - The glass main contract closed at 1020 yuan/ton, down 1.35% (- 14). The soda ash main contract closed at 1165 yuan/ton, down 1.52% (- 18) [17][19]. - **Strategy Views** - The glass industry has reduced supply, but the overall trading atmosphere in the spot market is still light. The soda ash market has a stable price supported by cost and pending orders, but the demand is still weak [18][20].

1. Report's Industry Investment Rating - The mid - term outlook for the black building materials industry is "Oscillation" [6] 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The macro - environment is warm as the December Central Economic Work Conference is approaching and there are still expectations of interest rate cuts overseas. However, the current steel inventory level is still higher year - on - year, demand is under pressure to weaken, and the steel futures market lacks upward momentum. There is still an expectation of seasonal weakening of hot metal, the driving force for further upward movement of iron ore is insufficient, the spot prices of coking coal and coke remain weak, and the supply - demand surplus of glass and soda ash continues to suppress the futures prices [1][2]. - Overall, there are limited bright spots in the fundamentals during the off - season. There is still a possibility of positive news from the macro and policy fronts, and the futures market may have phased upward opportunities due to the boost of macro sentiment [6]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Iron Element - Sinter ore inventory decreased slightly despite the increase in the sinter ore output and its proportion in the furnace, but sinter powder inventory increased. With the continuous compression of profit margins, hot metal is expected to continue to weaken, and the support from rigid demand is gradually weakening. Overseas mine shipments increased slightly month - on - month, with a decrease in Australian shipments, a significant increase in Brazilian shipments, and a slight decrease in non - mainstream shipments. The arrivals in this period decreased month - on - month, port inventory continued to accumulate, and the inventory of imported ore in national steel mills declined, with the replenishment demand not yet significantly released. After the previous price recovery, there is insufficient support for further upward movement, and the iron ore price is expected to oscillate in the short term [2]. - The arrival of scrap steel is low. After the price decline, its cost - performance has recovered, and the demand for scrap steel from both long - and short - process steel enterprises is supported. The downside space is limited, and the scrap steel price is expected to oscillate [2]. Carbon Element - Coke supply has increased slightly, and steel mill开工 has declined seasonally. Coke supply and demand are slightly loose. Coupled with the continuous weakening of spot cost support, there are still expectations of 1 - 2 rounds of supplementary price cuts. However, there are still expectations of winter storage and replenishment for raw materials in the future, and the possibility of continuous multiple rounds of price cuts is low. The futures market is expected to oscillate following coking coal [3]. - Although the fundamentals of coking coal have slightly deteriorated marginally, the current valuation level of the futures market is still low. The low - output state of domestic coal mines will continue, and the expectations of winter storage and replenishment by the mid - and downstream are strong. There is still support at the bottom of the spot price. The near - month contracts may remain oscillating due to the impact of delivery, while the far - month contracts are less affected, and are expected to oscillate with an upward trend [3][11]. Alloys - The price center of ore has risen, and the cost of ferromanganese silicon remains relatively high. However, the market supply - demand is in a loose state, and the price is under great upward pressure. It is difficult to transfer the cost downstream. It is expected that the futures price will mainly operate at a low level [3]. - The strong cost supports the bottom of the ferrosilicon price. However, the market supply - demand is in a weak state, and the price increase is still weak. The cost transfer downstream is not smooth, and the futures price of the main contract is expected to mainly operate at a low level [3]. Glass and Soda Ash - There are still expectations of supply disturbances, but the inventory of the mid - and downstream is moderately high. From the perspective of fundamentals, the current supply - demand is still in a surplus state. If there is no more cold - repair before the end of the year, the high inventory will always suppress the price, and it is expected to oscillate weakly. Otherwise, the price will rise [3][6][12]. - The price of the soda ash industry is approaching the cost, and the bottom support is obvious. Recently, the cold - repair of glass has further increased, and the overall supply - demand is still in a surplus state. It is expected to oscillate in the short term. In the long run, the surplus pattern of supply will further intensify, and the price center will still decline, promoting capacity reduction [6][15]. Specific Varieties - **Steel**: The demand is under pressure in the off - season, and the futures market lacks upward momentum. The spot market trading is generally average. The profitability of steel mills continues to decline, but the willingness to reduce production is limited. The overall steel inventory continues to decline, but the current inventory level is still higher year - on - year, and the demand is facing the pressure to weaken. The third - round and fifth - batch of the Central Ecological and Environmental Protection Inspection Team has reported some typical environmental problems in Tianjin and Hebei. Although it has limited impact on the production of northern steel mills, the macro - environment is warm, and the futures market still has the driving force to rebound from a low level, but the upside space is limited [7]. - **Iron Ore**: The supply - demand contradiction is not significant, and the price is expected to oscillate. The overseas mine shipments increased slightly month - on - month, the arrivals decreased month - on - month. The rigid demand for hot metal is gradually weakening, the port inventory continues to accumulate, the inventory of imported ore in steel mills has declined, and the replenishment demand has not been significantly released. After the previous price recovery, there is insufficient support for further upward movement [8]. - **Scrap Steel**: The arrival of scrap steel at steel mills is low, and the price is expected to oscillate. The arrival volume this week decreased slightly compared with last week and was lower than the level of the same period last year. The demand from both long - and short - process steel enterprises is supported, and the downside space is limited [9]. - **Coke**: The supply and demand are slightly loose, and the price is still under pressure. The supply has increased slightly, the demand has declined slightly, the inventory has slightly accumulated, but the overall contradiction is not significant. There are still expectations of 1 - 2 rounds of supplementary price cuts, but the possibility of continuous multiple rounds of price cuts is low, and the futures market is expected to oscillate following coking coal [10]. - **Coking Coal**: The supply remains at a low level, and coal mines continue to accumulate inventory. The domestic coal mine production continues at a low level, the imports from Mongolia remain high, the demand from the mid - and downstream has decreased, and the inventory has continued to accumulate. The futures market is expected to oscillate, with the near - month contracts remaining stable and the far - month contracts expected to oscillate with an upward trend [10][11]. - **Glass**: The demand is still weak, and supply reduction is still needed. The supply is expected to decline in December. The demand is weak compared with the same period last year, and the large inventory of the mid - stream always suppresses the futures valuation. If there is no further cold - repair, the price may decline [12]. - **Soda Ash**: The supply remains at a low level, and the supply - demand is still in a surplus state. The supply and demand fundamentals have not changed significantly. The industry is still in the stage of clearing at the bottom of the cycle. In the short term, it is expected to oscillate, and in the long run, the price center will decline [15]. - **Ferromanganese Silicon**: The cost transfer downstream is not smooth, and the inventory accumulation puts pressure on the price. The supply - demand is loose, and the price is under pressure. The cost support still exists, but the supply contraction is limited, and it is difficult to relieve the inventory pressure. It is expected that the futures price will mainly operate at a low level [16]. - **Ferrosilicon**: The supply - demand is in a weak state, and the price increase is weak. The cost support is strong, but the supply - demand is still weak, and it is difficult to transfer the cost downstream. It is expected that the futures price of the main contract will mainly operate at a low level [18].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The mid - term outlook for the black building materials industry is "oscillating" [6] 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The macro - environment is warm, and the steel plate is strong. Although there are disturbances in the steel supply, the actual impact on production is limited. Iron ore has strong support, and coking coal and coke have rebounded from low levels [1]. - In the off - season, steel continues to destock, with limited fundamental contradictions. There may be positive news from the macro and policy fronts, and the plate may have phased upward opportunities due to improved macro - sentiment [6]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Iron Element - Iron water production is expected to decline, and the rigid demand support for iron ore is weakening. Overseas mine shipments have increased slightly, port inventories are accumulating, and steel mills' import ore inventories are decreasing. Short - term ore prices are expected to oscillate [2][8]. - Scrap steel arrivals are stable, and after the price drop, its cost - effectiveness has increased. The demand from both long - and short - process steel enterprises is supported, and the price is expected to oscillate [2][9]. 3.2 Carbon Element - Coke supply has increased slightly, and steel mill开工 has declined seasonally. Coke supply and demand are slightly loose. There is an expectation of winter storage replenishment, and the futures price is expected to follow coking coal to oscillate [2][10]. - The fundamentals of coking coal have slightly deteriorated, but the current valuation of the futures is too low. There is a strong expectation of winter storage replenishment, and the spot price has bottom support. Near - month contracts may oscillate, while far - month contracts are expected to oscillate strongly [2][11]. 3.3 Alloys - The cost of ferromanganese silicon remains relatively high, but the market supply and demand are loose, and the price is expected to run at a low level [3][15]. - The cost of ferrosilicon supports the price bottom, but the market supply and demand are weak, and the price increase is weak. The futures price of the main contract is expected to run at a low level [3][16]. 3.4 Glass and Soda Ash - Glass supply may be disturbed, but the mid - and downstream inventories are moderately high. If there is no more cold repair by the end of the year, the high inventory will suppress the price, otherwise, the price will rise [6][12]. - The price of soda ash is close to the cost, with obvious bottom support. In the short term, it is expected to oscillate, and in the long term, the supply - surplus pattern will intensify, and the price center will decline [6][14]. 3.5 Steel - The macro - environment is warm, and the steel plate is strong. Although the steel mill profitability is decreasing, the willingness to reduce production is limited. The demand is under pressure to weaken, and the inventory is decreasing, but the inventory level is still high year - on - year [7]. 3.6 Commodity Index - On December 1, 2025, the comprehensive index of CITIC Futures commodities showed an increase. The special indices such as the Commodity 20 Index and the Industrial Products Index also rose.

Report Industry Investment Ratings No information provided in the given content. Core Views Polyolefins - PP shows a pattern of both supply and demand increasing, with reduced maintenance driving supply recovery and a slight reduction in inventory. PE shows increased supply and decreased demand, with ample imported goods and weakening demand except for agricultural films. Overall, the 01 contract still faces significant pressure [2]. Crude Oil - During the US Thanksgiving, trading was light, and the Russia - Ukraine peace talks were uncertain, leading to a slight increase in overnight oil prices. However, due to OPEC+ continuous production increase and record - high US crude oil production, the supply - demand pattern remains weak. Oil prices are expected to continue to fluctuate at a low level, with short - term focus on the $60/barrel support for Brent crude and the results of the Russia - Ukraine talks [4]. Natural Rubber - On the supply side, domestic production areas are gradually entering the production - reducing and cutting - off season, and floods in southern Thailand and Vietnam need time to recede, providing strong cost support. However, the arrival of overseas shipments is increasing seasonally, and inventory accumulation suppresses spot prices. On the demand side, overall demand is weak, and the market mainly digests channel inventory. Natural rubber is expected to enter a range - bound consolidation, with the price likely to weaken if raw material supply is smooth, and to run in the 15000 - 15500 range if supply is restricted [6]. Methanol - In the inland market, Jiutai's maintenance is over, and subsequent domestic production will continue to increase. Currently, marginal inland plants are in the red. In Iran, some plants have started gas - restricted shutdowns, improving market sentiment and strengthening the futures price and basis. It is expected to be volatile and slightly stronger in the short term [8][9]. LPG No specific overall view provided in the given content. Pure Benzene - Styrene - Pure benzene: New production capacity and plant restarts are expected, and although some plants are reducing production, supply remains loose. Downstream demand is mainly for rigid needs, and some loss - making varieties are reducing production. Port inventory is rising, and short - term prices may be dragged down by oil prices. The strategy is to short on rebounds for BZ2603 in the short term. - Styrene: With profit recovery, some plants are increasing production, but planned and unplanned shutdowns and maintenance are also increasing, limiting supply. Downstream demand support is limited, and overseas blending demand is cooling, but there are still export expectations. The short - term supply - demand outlook is improving, but the rebound space is limited. EB01 is expected to fluctuate and consolidate in the short term [13]. Ester Industry Chain - PX: Short - term supply is relatively high, and demand is weak due to PTA plant maintenance and weakening terminal demand. The short - term driver is limited, but the medium - term supply - demand outlook is tight, and it is expected to fluctuate at a high level in the short term. - PTA: Supply reduction exceeds expectations, and demand from polyester is supported. Exports are expected to increase. The supply - demand outlook is improving, and the basis is recovering. It is expected to be volatile at a high level in the short term, and the strategy is to go long on the TA month - spread at low levels. - Ethylene Glycol (EG): Polyester demand provides some support, but supply from coal - based plants is increasing, and imports are expected to be high. The port inventory has limited downward space. The strategy is to short the EG1 - 5 spread at high levels. - Short - fiber: Supply remains high, and demand is seasonally weak. The absolute price has limited drivers, and processing fees are expected to be compressed. - Bottle chips: Supply is increasing, and demand is in the off - season. The supply - demand pattern is loose, and the processing fee is expected to decline. The strategy is to short the processing fee [14]. Glass - Soda Ash - Soda Ash: Recent production has declined, and inventory has decreased, supporting the futures price. However, the medium - term oversupply problem persists, and demand is expected to remain at the previous rigid level. The supply - demand pattern is bearish, and the strategy is to wait for short - selling opportunities after rebounds. - Glass: News of production line shutdowns in Hubei has boosted the market sentiment, and the futures price has rebounded, driving better spot sales. There is still some short - term rigid demand, but long - term demand is a concern, especially with the approaching winter in the north. The market still needs capacity clearance to solve the oversupply problem. The 01 contract may face pressure near the delivery month [15]. PVC - Caustic Soda - Caustic Soda: The industry still faces supply - demand pressure. Regional supply in East China will decrease next week, but with the monthly contract signing, the spot price in East China is expected to decline if the futures price remains weakening. The demand from the main downstream, alumina, is weak, and the price is expected to be weak in the long term. - PVC: The spot market remains weak. Supply is increasing, and demand is sluggish, especially during the traditional off - season from November to January. Although the cancellation of India's BIS certification is beneficial, the expected anti - dumping tax implementation limits external demand. The supply - demand pattern is in surplus, and the price is expected to continue to be weak at the bottom [16].
