For most varieties, it is recommended to wait and see, paying attention to terminal demand and relevant domestic and foreign policies [1][2] Summary by Related Catalogs Steel - Today's steel futures market fluctuated narrowly. This week, the apparent demand for thread steel rebounded significantly, production was relatively stable, and inventory resumed a downward trend. The demand for hot - rolled coil also recovered, production declined, and inventory resumed a downward trend. Iron ore production is at a high level, and the supply pressure is still large. As the off - season of demand approaches, the terminal's carrying capacity needs to be observed. Domestic demand in downstream industries is still weak, manufacturing prosperity has declined, and real estate sales recovery is fluctuating [1] Iron Ore - Today's iron ore futures market fluctuated. On the supply side, the global shipment of iron ore fluctuated normally, with no obvious increase for the time being. The domestic arrival volume decreased, and the national port inventory decreased. On the demand side, terminal demand rebounded, but there is still seasonal weakening pressure in the future. With a high profit rate of steel mills, iron ore production can still maintain a high level for the time being. It is expected to fluctuate in the short term, and attention should be paid to the pressure of the decline of iron ore production in the medium term [2] Coke - The price of coke fluctuated weakly. It is expected to be reduced in price this Thursday, and daily production has increased slightly. The overall inventory of coke has not been effectively reduced and remains at a high level, and traders have no purchasing enthusiasm. The supply of carbon elements is still abundant, and the downstream iron ore production remains stable at a high level. Steel billet export orders are good. It is recommended to wait and see [3] Coking Coal - The price of coking coal fluctuated weakly. Production has gradually climbed to a relatively high level this year.

It is estimated that about 50,000 tons of South32 Australian ore will arrive at the port by the end of this month. Iron ore production remains stable at a high level, the supply of silicomanganese continues to decline, and the overall inventory level has increased significantly, which continues to suppress the price. It is recommended to wait and see and pay continuous attention to tariff trends [6] Ferrosilicon - The price of ferrosilicon fluctuated narrowly. Iron ore production remains stable at a high level. Export demand generally shows a downward trend month - on - month, but the marginal impact is small.

Report Industry Investment Ratings - The operation ratings for rebar, hot-rolled coil, iron ore, coke, coking coal, silicon manganese, and ferrosilicon are all ★★★, indicating a more distinct long/short trend and relatively appropriate investment opportunities currently [1]. Core Viewpoints - The overall market shows a complex situation with different trends and influencing factors for each product. Uncertainties such as demand, inventory, and tariff policies have a significant impact on the market. It is recommended to pay close attention to terminal demand and relevant domestic and foreign policies [1][2][3]. Summary by Product Steel - The steel futures market opened high and closed low today. Due to pre - holiday downstream replenishment overdraft and approaching off - season, demand weakened. Rebar apparent demand dropped significantly, production declined slightly, and inventory increased. Hot - rolled coil demand also declined, production was stable, and inventory increased. High iron - water production led to increased supply pressure, and concerns about negative feedback emerged due to insufficient terminal acceptance. The market's expectation of domestic demand is still pessimistic, and the short - term market may fluctuate. Attention should be paid to terminal demand and relevant policies [1]. Iron Ore - The iron ore futures market fluctuated today. Globally, iron ore shipments decreased compared to the previous period but were slightly stronger than the same period last year. Domestic arrivals continued to decline, and port inventories decreased. With low berthing volume, the overall inventory pressure is not large. Terminal demand has declined from its peak, but high iron - water production still supports actual demand. Although there are rumors of production restrictions, there are also positive factors from external trade negotiations. It is expected to fluctuate in the short term, and attention should be paid to the pressure of iron - water production peaking and falling in the medium term [2]. Coke - Coke prices remained weak. A price cut is expected on Thursday this week, and daily production has been increasing slightly. Coke inventory has not been effectively reduced and remains at a high level, and traders have no purchasing enthusiasm.

It is expected that about 50,000 tons of South32 Australian ore will arrive at the port by the end of this month. With high and stable iron - water production, silicon manganese supply continues to decline, and the overall inventory has increased significantly, suppressing prices. As manganese ore inventory starts to increase, there may be a short - term rebound drive. It is recommended to wait and see and pay continuous attention to tariff trends [6]. Ferrosilicon - Ferrosilicon prices fluctuated within a narrow range. Iron - water production remained stable at a high level. Export demand decreased slightly month - on - month, with a marginal impact. The production of magnesium metal was basically flat and remained at a high level, and overall demand was acceptable.
