Report Industry Investment Ratings - Bullish: Palm oil, soybean oil [1] - Bearish: Industrial silicon [1] - Neutral: Most other industries are rated as "oscillating" [1] Core Views of the Report - Policy aims to achieve a "slow bull" in the stock market, with short - term oscillations in the stock index and long - term opportunities for long - position layout. Asset shortage and weak economy benefit bond futures, but short - term interest rate risks are signaled by the central bank [1]. - Different metals and commodities have various trends. For example, copper prices are in high - level oscillations, aluminum prices are falling from high levels, and nickel prices are in high - level oscillations with supply concerns and inventory constraints [1]. - Precious metals are supported by geopolitical and trade tensions, but the suspension of key - mineral tariff hikes by the US may cause price fluctuations. Platinum and palladium are expected to have wide - range oscillations in the short term, and a long - term strategy of buying platinum and shorting palladium can be considered [1]. - In the agricultural and energy - chemical sectors, different products are affected by factors such as supply - demand relationships, policies, and international situations, resulting in different price trends and investment strategies [1]. Summary by Related Catalogs Macro Finance - Stock index: Policy cools market speculation, with short - term oscillations and long - term opportunities for long - position layout [1] - Bond futures: Asset shortage and weak economy are beneficial, but short - term interest rate risks are signaled by the central bank, and the Japanese central bank's interest - rate decision should be monitored [1] Non - ferrous Metals - Copper: Downstream demand is under pressure, and with the suspension of key - mineral tariffs by the US, short - term copper - hoarding concerns are alleviated, and prices are in high - level oscillations [1] - Aluminum: Limited industrial drivers and weakening macro sentiment lead to aluminum prices falling from high levels [1] - Alumina: Supply exceeds demand in the domestic market, and prices are under pressure, but they are near the cost line and expected to oscillate [1] - Zinc: The cost center is stable, but inventory pressure is evident, and prices fluctuate within a range due to repeated macro sentiment [1] - Nickel: The 2026 RKAB target of Indonesian nickel ore is about 260 million wet tons, but the supply is still tight. Global nickel inventory accumulation may restrict price increases, and short - term prices are in high - level oscillations. Short - term long - position trading on dips is recommended, but over - chasing highs should be avoided [1] - Stainless steel: The price of raw - material nickel iron is rising, social inventory is slightly decreasing, and steel - mill production in January is increasing. Futures prices are in high - level oscillations, and short - term long - position trading on dips is recommended [1] - Tin: Short - term macro sentiment is repeated, and prices have corrected. However, due to the fragile supply of tin ore, there is still upward momentum, and low - buying opportunities should be monitored [1] Precious Metals and New Energy - Gold and silver: Geopolitical and trade tensions boost prices, and they are expected to be strong in the short term, but price fluctuations may be intense due to the suspension of key - mineral tariff hikes by the US [1] - Platinum and palladium: Geopolitical and trade tensions support prices, but the suspension of key - mineral tariff hikes by the US may suppress price drivers. Short - term wide - range oscillations are expected, and a long - term strategy of buying platinum and shorting palladium can be considered [1] Industrial and Building Materials - Industrial silicon: Production increases in the northwest and decreases in the southwest, and the planned production of polysilicon and organic silicon in December decreases [1] - Polysilicon: It is in the off - season for new energy vehicles, but energy - storage demand is strong, and there is a battery export rush with a large increase in price [1] - Lithium carbonate: Expectations are strong, but the spot market is weak, and the upward momentum is insufficient [1] - Rebar and hot - rolled coil: High production and inventory suppress price increases, and the transmission of futures price increases to the spot market is not smooth.

Short - term spot prices are firm, and futures prices are expected to oscillate within a range [1] - Soybeans: As the Brazilian harvest progresses, the CNF premium reflects the selling pressure of a bumper harvest. Dry weather in Argentina should be monitored, and short - term prices are expected to oscillate weakly [1] - Pulp: Affected by the decline in the commodity macro - environment, prices have fallen but remain within the oscillation range. Due to large short - term commodity - sentiment fluctuations, it is recommended to wait and see cautiously [1] - Logs: Spot prices have shown signs of bottom - rebounding, and the further decline in futures prices is limited. However, the January overseas offer has slightly decreased, and there is a lack of upward - driving factors, with prices expected to oscillate between 760 - 790 yuan/m³ [1] - Hogs: Spot prices are gradually stabilizing, demand provides support, and production capacity still needs to be further released [1] Energy and Chemicals - Crude oil: OPEC+ has suspended production increases until the end of 2026, the uncertainty of the Russia - Ukraine peace agreement, and US sanctions on Venezuelan oil exports affect prices [1] - Fuel oil: Short - term supply - demand contradictions are not prominent and follow crude - oil prices.

Industry Investment Ratings - Macrofinance: Index (Long-term bullish, short-term shock adjustment), Treasury bonds (Shock), Copper (Shock), Aluminum (Shock), Alumina (Shock), Zinc (Shock), Nickel (High-level shock), Stainless steel (High-level shock), Tin (Potential for increase), Precious metals (High-level wide-range shock), Industrial silicon and polysilicon (Bearish), Lithium carbonate (No clear rating), Rebar (Shock), Iron ore (Shock), Coke (Shock), Coking coal (Bullish), Anthracite (Bullish), Palm oil (Shock), Soybean oil (Bullish), Rapeseed oil (Bearish), Cotton (Shock), Sugar (Bearish), Corn (Shock), Soybeans (Bearish), Pulp (Shock), Logs (Shock), Live pigs (Shock), Fuel oil (Shock), Bitumen (Shock), BR rubber (Bullish), PTA (Shock), Ethylene glycol (Shock), Styrene (Bearish), Urea (Shock), PF (Shock), PVC (Shock), LPG (Bullish), Container shipping European line (Shock) [1] Core Views - The policy aims for a "slow bull" in the stock index rather than suppressing the market. The short-term shock adjustment space is expected to be limited, and long-term bulls can choose opportunities to layout. Asset shortages and a weak economy are beneficial to bond futures, but the central bank has recently warned of interest rate risks. The downstream demand is relatively pressured, and with the US suspending the tax on key minerals, the short-term concern about copper hoarding has eased, causing copper prices to fall from high levels. The supply of nickel ore remains tight, but the continuous accumulation of global nickel inventories may restrict the rise of nickel prices. The prices of precious metals are expected to shift to high-level wide-range shocks. The prices of industrial silicon and polysilicon are bearish. The prices of black metals are affected by weak reality and strong expectations. The prices of agricultural products are affected by various factors such as supply and demand, policies, and weather. The prices of energy and chemical products are affected by factors such as supply and demand, geopolitical situations, and cost support [1] Summary by Directory Macrofinance - Index: The stock index rose strongly in the first half of the week and then adjusted with policy regulation. The short-term shock adjustment space is limited, and long-term bulls can choose opportunities to layout [1] - Treasury bonds: Asset shortages and a weak economy are beneficial to bond futures, but the central bank has recently warned of interest rate risks. Pay attention to the interest rate decision of the Bank of Japan [1] Non-ferrous Metals - Copper: The downstream demand is relatively pressured, and with the US suspending the tax on key minerals, the short-term concern about copper hoarding has eased, causing copper prices to fall from high levels [1] - Aluminum: The recent industrial drive is limited, and the macro sentiment has weakened, causing aluminum prices to fall from high levels [1] - Alumina: The alumina production capacity still has a large release space, and the industrial side weakens the price. However, the current price is basically near the cost line, and the price is expected to fluctuate [1] - Zinc: The cost center of the zinc fundamentals is stable, but the inventory pressure is obvious. The current price has insufficient fundamental support, and the zinc price fluctuates in a range under the repeated macro sentiment [1] - Nickel: The supply of nickel ore remains tight, but the continuous accumulation of global nickel inventories may restrict the rise of nickel prices. The short-term nickel price fluctuates at a high level and is still affected by the resonance of the non-ferrous metal sector. It is recommended to pay attention to the policy changes in Indonesia, the macro sentiment, and the futures positions [1] - Stainless steel: The price of raw material nickel iron continues to rise, the social inventory of stainless steel decreases slightly, and the steel mill's production schedule in January increases. Pay attention to the actual production situation of the steel mill. The stainless steel futures fluctuate at a high level, and it is recommended to go long at low levels in the short term [1] - Tin: The short-term macro sentiment is repeated, and the tin price has corrected. However, the supply vulnerability of tin ore still exists, and it still has the driving force to rise. Pay attention to the opportunity of low absorption [1] - Precious metals: The geopolitical situation has cooled down, and the rise of precious metal prices has slowed down. The silver price has fallen under pressure. The short-term gold and silver prices are expected to shift to high-level wide-range shocks. In the long term, it is recommended to allocate platinum at low levels or choose the arbitrage strategy of [long platinum, short palladium] [1] Black Metals - Rebar: The expectation is strong, but the spot is weak, and the sentiment transmission to the spot is not smooth. The continuous rise kinetic energy is insufficient. Unilaterally long orders should leave the market and wait and see; participate in the positive arbitrage position in the spot and futures [1] - Iron ore: The sector rotates, but the upper pressure of iron ore is obvious. It is not recommended to chase long at this position. The weak reality and strong expectation are intertwined. The actual supply and demand continue to be weak, and the energy consumption double control and anti-involution may disturb the supply [1] - Coke: The short-term market sentiment warms up, and the supply and demand are supported, but the medium-term supply and demand continue to be surplus, and the price is under pressure [1] - Coking coal: If the expectation of "capacity reduction" continues to ferment and the spot replenishes the inventory before the Spring Festival, coking coal may still have room to rise, but the actual rise space is difficult to judge, and the volatility increases after a large rise. It is necessary to be cautious [1] - Anthracite: The logic is the same as that of coking coal [1] Agricultural Products - Cotton: The domestic new crop production expectation is strong, but the purchase price of seed cotton supports the cost of lint. The downstream start-up maintains a low level, but the yarn mill inventory is not high, and there is a rigid replenishment demand. The cotton market is currently in a situation of "supported but no driving force." Pay attention to the tone of the No. 1 Central Document on direct subsidy prices and cotton planting areas in the first quarter of next year, the intention of cotton planting areas next year, the weather during the planting period, and the peak season demand from March to April [1] - Sugar: The global sugar is in surplus, and the domestic new crop supply increases. The short consensus is relatively consistent. If the disk continues to fall, the lower cost support is strong, but the short-term fundamentals lack continuous driving force. Pay attention to the changes in the capital side [1] - Corn: The grain sales progress of Northeast corn is relatively fast, the port inventory is low, and the middle and lower reaches have a certain replenishment demand before the festival.

The current polyester downstream start-up rate maintains above 90%, and the demand performance slightly exceeds expectations [1] - Styrene: The Asian styrene market is generally stable. The suppliers are reluctant to reduce prices due to continuous losses, while the buyers insist on pressing prices due to the weak downstream polymer demand and profit compression. Although the downstream demand is weak, the domestic market has a bullish sentiment due to the export support. The market is in a weak balance state, and the short-term upward driving force needs to pay attention to the drive of the overseas market [1] - Urea: The export sentiment eases slightly, and the domestic demand is insufficient. The upper space is limited. The lower has the support of anti-involution and the cost side [1] - PF: The geopolitical conflict intensifies, and the crude oil has a rising risk. The maintenance decreases, and the operation load is at a high level. The long-distance arrival increases the supply. The downstream demand operation weakens. The price returns to a reasonable range [1] - PVC: There is less global production in 2026, and the future expectation is optimistic. The fundamentals are poor. The export tax rebate is cancelled, and there may be a phenomenon of rushing to export later. The differential electricity price in the northwest region is expected to be implemented, forcing the PVC production capacity to be cleared [1] - LPG: The January CP rises unexpectedly, and the cost support of imported gas is strong. The geopolitical conflict in the Middle East escalates, and the short-term risk premium rises.
