Hong Yuan Qi Huo· 2025-08-07 04:54
Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core Viewpoints - The weakening US job market has increased the market's expectation of a Fed rate cut. However, due to the expected resumption of tin mines in Wa State, Myanmar, and North Kivu, Congo, and the continuous increase in the operating capacity of domestic refined tin, the upward space for Shanghai tin prices may be limited. It is recommended that investors wait and see for the time being, paying attention to the support and pressure levels of Shanghai tin and London tin [3]. - The positive basis and negative monthly spread of Shanghai tin, as well as the negative (0 - 3) and positive (3 - 15) contract spreads of LME tin, are all within a reasonable range. Given the expected increase in production and inventory and the influence of factors such as Fed rate - cut expectations and mine resumptions, it is recommended to wait and see for arbitrage opportunities [6][10]. Summary by Related Catalogs Supply - side - Myanmar's Wa State determined on July 11 that the first batch of 40 - 50 mines would resume production after paying fees, with an initial incremental production of no more than 10,000 metal tons and a transmission period of 2 - 3 months. Alphamin Resources announced the phased resumption of the Bisie tin mine in North Kivu, Congo, which may lead to a month - on - month increase in China's tin ore production and imports in August [20]. - China's recycled tin production in August may increase month - on - month [21][23]. - The capacity utilization rate of refined tin in Yunnan and Jiangxi has increased (or remained flat) compared to last week, and China's refined tin production and inventory in August may increase month - on - month [27]. - Indonesia's state - owned tin mining company PT Timah plans to increase tin production and sales in 2025. The export volume in August may increase month - on - month, but due to the loss in imports and exports, China's refined tin imports and exports in August may decrease month - on - month [31]. Demand - side - The capacity utilization rate of China's tin solder in August may decrease month - on - month, and the inventory may increase month - on - month [34]. - China's solder strip imports in August may decrease month - on - month, while exports may increase month - on - month [36][38]. - China's tin - plated sheet production and exports in August may increase month - on - month, while imports may decrease month - on - month [42]. Market Indicators - The basis of Shanghai tin is positive and the monthly spread is negative, both within a reasonable range [4][6]. - The (0 - 3) contract spread of LME tin is negative and the (3 - 15) contract spread is positive, both within a reasonable range. The ratio of Shanghai and London tin prices is at the 50% quantile of the past five - year average [8][10]. - China's refined tin social inventory, SHFE refined tin inventory, and the total domestic and foreign refined tin inventory have increased compared to last week, while the LME refined tin inventory has decreased [11][13]. - The daily processing fee of domestic tin concentrate has shown a downward trend, indicating a potentially tight supply of domestic tin ore [14][16]. Other - The capacity utilization rate of China's lead - acid battery has remained flat compared to last week [44][47].

Wen Hua Cai Jing· 2025-07-23 10:33
Core Viewpoint - The tin market is experiencing a weak demand season, with limited fundamental drivers and fluctuating macro sentiments impacting prices. The main contract closed at 268,540 yuan/ton, up 0.42% despite a cooling demand environment [1][2]. Group 1: Supply and Demand Dynamics - Tin downstream demand is currently weak due to the off-peak season, with a notable decline in orders from the home appliance sector and a significant drop in photovoltaic orders following the end of the rush for installations [2]. - In June, China's imports of tin concentrate slightly decreased compared to May, with supply remaining relatively tight domestically. The main sources of increased imports were the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Myanmar, with a significant rise from the former [1]. - The supply side continues to show low operating rates at smelters, and the industrial supply of tin concentrate remains tight, contributing to a subdued market environment [2]. Group 2: Market Sentiment and Price Movements - Recent price increases have been met with a lack of actual transactions, as traders report a high price level and downstream participants exhibit a cautious stance, leading to a generally quiet trading atmosphere [2]. - The market is expected to remain under the influence of macroeconomic policies, with tin prices likely to experience fluctuations at high levels in the short term [2]. - The overall trading performance is characterized by a weak demand environment, with the market maintaining a low level of activity as consumer acceptance of current tin prices remains low [2].

1. Report Industry Investment Ratings No specific industry investment ratings are provided in the report. 2. Core Views of the Report - The market is influenced by various factors including geopolitical events, economic data, and supply - demand dynamics in different industries. For example, the potential change in the 20% tariff on Chinese goods due to the fentanyl issue between the US and China is worth attention [7]. - Different commodities have different trends. Some are expected to rise, some to fall, and some to move within a range. For instance, gold is expected to oscillate upward, while tin's price is weakening [14][35]. 3. Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Fentanyl Issue - Trump believes China will soon sentence fentanyl traffickers to death and is optimistic about reaching an agreement on illegal drugs with China. However, the Chinese Foreign Ministry stated that the fentanyl problem is the US's own issue, and the US's imposition of tariffs on fentanyl has damaged Sino - US cooperation in the anti - drug field. The 20% tariff on Chinese goods due to the fentanyl issue remains in effect, and whether it will change is worthy of attention [7]. 3.2 Commodity Recommendations by the Director - **Bean Meal**: Since mid - July, the domestic bean meal futures have stopped falling earlier than US soybeans and broken through the technical resistance level. The reasons are the strong sentiment in the domestic commodity market and the low - valuation advantage of bean meal. Although the short - term fundamentals are weak, there are no additional negative impacts. Once the US soybean price recovers, the bean meal price will break through. After the current rally, there is a risk of a pullback, and attention should be paid to the fundamentals such as the trade agreement, US soybean weather, and the August USDA report [8][9]. - **Caustic Soda**: In the short term, the supply and demand of the caustic soda market have not changed much, with sufficient supply and increased shipments to major downstream industries. The spot has no upward momentum, and the futures have been weak in the past two days. In July, the maintenance capacity of caustic soda has decreased significantly compared to June, and new capacity of 1.1 million tons may be added in July - August. The new capacity pressure is basically digested by exports. The demand is in the off - season, but the cost is strongly supported by the weak liquid chlorine. It is recommended to participate in the 10 - 1 spread arbitrage [11]. 3.3 Commodity Research Morning Report - **Precious Metals**: Gold is expected to oscillate upward, and silver is expected to break through and rise. The trend intensity of both is 1 [14][18][23]. - **Base Metals**: - **Copper**: The good US economic data supports the copper price. The trend intensity is 0 [14][26][29]. - **Zinc**: It is expected to move within a range, with a trend intensity of 0 [14][30]. - **Lead**: The downside may be limited, with a trend intensity of 0 [14][32][33]. - **Tin**: The price is weakening, with a trend intensity of - 1 [14][35][39]. - **Aluminum**: Attention should be paid to the marginal change in inventory. The trend intensity is 0. Alumina is expected to oscillate strongly with a trend intensity of 1, and cast aluminum alloy is weaker than electrolytic aluminum with a trend intensity of 0 [14][40][42]. - **Nickel**: The news affects market sentiment, and the fundamentals are under pressure. The trend intensity is 0. Stainless steel is in a game between reality and macro factors, and the steel price oscillates. The trend intensity is 0 [14][43][47]. - **Energy and Chemicals**: - **Carbonate Lithium**: Supply - side disturbances have emerged again, and the short - term trend may be strong. The trend intensity is 1 [14][48][50]. - **Industrial Silicon**: Warehouse receipts are accumulating, and attention should be paid to market sentiment. The trend intensity is 0. Polysilicon's futures may rise and then fall, with a trend intensity of 0 [14][51][55]. - **Iron Ore**: Supported by macro expectations, it oscillates strongly. The trend intensity is 0 [14][56]. - **Rebar and Hot - Rolled Coil**: The market sentiment remains strong, and they oscillate widely. The trend intensity of both is 1 [14][59][61]. - **Silicon Ferrosilicon and Manganese Silicide**: The steel procurement sentiment remains strong, and they oscillate widely. The trend intensity of both is 0 [14][63][65]. - **Coke and Coking Coal**: Coke has completed the first round of price increase and oscillates widely. The trend intensity is 0. Coking coal oscillates widely, and the trend intensity is 1 [14][66][68]. - **Steam Coal**: The daily consumption is recovering, and it oscillates and stabilizes. The trend intensity is 0 [14][70][73]. - **Log**: It oscillates widely [74].

新能源、有色组行业锡半年报:矿端干扰以及新能源边际下滑令锡供需两弱
Hua Tai Qi Huo· 2025-07-06 10:47
1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The investment rating for the tin industry is neutral [8] 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In the first half of 2025, the tin market showed characteristics of "weak supply and demand." The LME tin price first rose and then fell (from $38,000 to $32,000 per ton), and the main contract of Shanghai tin fluctuated between 240,000 and 280,000 yuan per ton [3][5][13] - The supply of tin ore remained tight. From January to May, the imported tin concentrate was 50,200 tons (-36.6%), the supply from Myanmar decreased by 80%, and the resumption of production in the Democratic Republic of the Congo was delayed, putting pressure on processing fees [3] - The refined tin production at the smelting end was 88,900 tons (-3.6%), and the production of recycled tin dropped sharply by 17.3% due to the impact of tariffs [3] - The demand was clearly differentiated. The electronics sector (integrated circuits +6.8%) supported high - end demand, while the photovoltaic industry showed signs of over - capacity [3] - In the second half of the year, in the context of relatively weak supply and demand, the tin price is expected to maintain a volatile pattern [5] 3. Summary According to the Directory 3.1 Price Fluctuation in the First Half of 2025 - The tin price showed a volatile trend of rising first and then falling. At the beginning of the year, affected by the delayed resumption of mines in Wa State, Myanmar, the tin ore supply was continuously tight, and the LME tin price once soared to $38,000 per ton. After March, with the gradual release of Indonesia's export quota, combined with the slowdown of photovoltaic installation growth and the interference of Trump's tariff policy, the tin price fell from its high to around $32,000 per ton. In China, the main contract of Shanghai tin fluctuated widely between 240,000 and 280,000 yuan per ton, and the high spot premium reflected the tight supply pattern [5][13] 3.2 Supply - side Overview 3.2.1 Low Processing Fees - Since August 2024, affected by the mining ban in Wa State, the domestic tin concentrate has been in a relatively scarce state. From January to May 2025, China's imported tin concentrate reached 50,200 tons, a year - on - year decrease of 36.57%. The imported concentrate from Myanmar was only 10,900 tons, less than 20% of the same period last year [16] - Another major source of concentrate, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, had its Bisie mining area suspended from March 13 to April 15. The first batch of goods shipped to China is expected to arrive in July. From January to May, the domestic imported tin concentrate from the Democratic Republic of the Congo was 12,900 tons, a year - on - year increase of 22.86%. If the shipment can remain stable, it will be an effective supplement to domestic ore sources [16] - The relative scarcity of the ore end has kept the ore - end processing fees at a low level. The actual processing fee in Yunnan is currently around 11,000 yuan per ton, and in other regions such as Jiangxi and Hunan, it is even lower, with some refineries dropping below 6,000 yuan per ton [18] 3.2.2 Smelting Output - From January to June 2025, the domestic refined tin output reached 88,900 tons, a year - on - year decrease of 3.60%. Due to the impact of Trump's tariff policy on tin solder, the output of recycled tin decreased more significantly, reaching 19,600 tons from January to June, a year - on - year decrease of 17.3%. Before the supply at the ore end is improved, it is difficult for the smelting output to increase significantly [6][25] 3.2.3 Tin Ingot Import and Export - From January to May 2025, the domestic refined tin imports reached 9,500 tons, a year - on - year increase of 30.91%, and the exports reached 9,600 tons, a year - on - year increase of 38.5%. In the second half of this year, as the photovoltaic sector may enter a stage of slow growth, the import volume may slow down, and it is expected to remain in a net export state in the next few months [30] 3.3 Terminal Situation Overview 3.3.1 Development of the Automobile Industry - In 2025, the global automobile market is undergoing profound changes, with the transformation of electrification and intelligence continuing to deepen. In the third - quarter traditional off - season, the market popularity is expected to exceed expectations due to the concentrated launch of flagship models with L3 - level autonomous driving capabilities. Domestic new - energy brands are expanding their market share with core technology breakthroughs such as 800V high - voltage platforms and solid - state batteries. Chinese car companies' overseas layout is paying off, and intelligent driving technology is rapidly iterating [31][34] - From January to May 2025, the domestic traditional automobile production reached 7.126 million vehicles, a year - on - year decrease of 4.44%, while the new - energy vehicle production reached 5.699 million vehicles, a year - on - year increase of 45%, and the export volume reached 789,000 vehicles, a year - on - year increase of 37.1% [34] 3.3.2 Home Appliance Industry - Since 2025, the Chinese home - appliance export market has faced significant pressure, mainly due to the continuous fermentation of the Sino - US trade dispute and the periodic weakening of global restocking demand. The traditional OEM export model is transforming into a new development path of "local production + brand operation + long - term in - depth cultivation." Different home - appliance varieties may face significant differentiation in the future, and the industry as a whole is less likely to maintain high - speed growth. After the strong export, there are signs of a decline. In the second half of the year, the home - appliance sector may not perform well under the situation of no obvious recovery in the real - estate market and great uncertainty in the foreign - trade environment [39][40] 3.3.3 Electronics Sector - The electronics sector is becoming an important demand growth point. Since the fourth quarter of 2024, the capital expenditures of three major Chinese technology giants (Tencent, Alibaba, and Baidu) have increased significantly. Even when the PMI data is relatively poor, the high - tech manufacturing industry remains at a relatively healthy level. From January to May 2025, the domestic integrated - circuit production and export volume increased by 6.8% and 21.13% respectively, and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index has risen significantly since April [44] 3.4 Inventory Situation - At the beginning of the year, the trends of tin inventories at home and abroad were significantly different: domestic inventories continued to accumulate while overseas inventories decreased. After April, they both decreased synchronously. Overseas inventories decreased rapidly due to tight supply and are currently at a historical low. In China, high supply and high prices at the beginning of the year suppressed demand, leading to inventory accumulation. After the price decline in April, the rush to install photovoltaic panels drove restocking demand, and the increase in the proportion of long - term orders diverted inventory, promoting the inventory - reduction process. In the short term, the tight ore end supports the inventory - reduction trend, but as the supply from Wa State, Myanmar, and Indonesia recovers, the inventory may start to accumulate in the fourth quarter [51]
