Report Summary 1) Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2) Core View of the Report The overall fundamentals of the black industry remain weak this week, with supply improving and demand continuing to slow down. There is a possibility of the industry being dragged down by the weakening of finished products and returning to a downward trend. The strategy is to maintain a short - selling mindset, add short positions moderately on rebounds, and hold them in the medium - term [1]. 3) Summary by Relevant Catalogs Market Overview - Black commodity futures stabilized overall with mixed gains and losses on June 13. The closing price of rebar was 2969 yuan/ton, down 0.20%; the main contract of hot - rolled coil closed at 3082 yuan/ton, down 0.26%; the main contract of iron ore closed at 703 yuan/ton; and the coking coal and coke contracts closed slightly higher [1]. Market Analysis - Supply: The global iron ore shipping volume increased by 79.4 tons week - on - week to 3510.4 tons, reaching an 11 - month high and the highest level in the same period in recent years. The domestic arrival volume also rebounded significantly. Non - mainstream ore shipments have been rising rapidly, but the year - on - year decline in non - Australian and non - Brazilian shipments is difficult to reverse on a monthly basis [1]. - Demand: Entering the off - season, terminal demand has been continuously weakening. The total demand for the five major steel products decreased by 19.53 tons week - on - week to 882.17 tons, reaching a one - month low and the lowest level in the same period over the years. Due to the continuous decline in coal prices, the profitability rate of 247 steel mills slightly decreased to 58.44% this week. Steel mills were not active in reducing production. The blast furnace operating rate decreased by 0.15% to 83.41%, and the blast furnace iron - making capacity utilization rate decreased by 0.07% to 90.58%. The daily average pig iron output was 241.61 tons, only 0.19 tons less than last week but 2.3 tons more than the same period last year, indicating that iron ore demand still has support [1]. - Inventory: The daily average port iron ore shipment volume decreased by 13.81 tons to 315.25 tons, reaching a nearly 3 - month low. With the concentrated arrival of foreign ores, the weekly inventory of imported ores at 47 ports in the country increased by 102.83 tons to 14503.14 tons, and the year - on - year decline narrowed to 6.66%, reaching a one - month high. In addition, the total inventory of imported iron ore in steel mills increased by 108.50 tons to 8798.68 tons, and the inventory - to - consumption ratio rose to 29.9 days [1]. Investment Suggestions - Iron ore: Pay attention to supply - demand changes and inventory conditions, and avoid chasing high prices [1]. - Rebar: Investors are advised to adopt a volatile trading strategy in the short term and pay attention to the spread between hot - rolled coil and rebar [1]. - Hot - rolled coil: Investors are advised to adopt a high - level consolidation trading strategy in the short term and pay attention to supply - demand changes [1]. - Coking coal and coke: Pay attention to the oscillating market after the price stabilizes from the decline, or trade based on the strength - weakness relationship between coking coal and coke [1].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core View of the Report - In May, the month - on - month decline of PPI remained the same as in April, and the year - on - year decline of CPI also stayed unchanged. However, after excluding the impact of supply factors such as oil prices and food, marginal new structural changes emerged [1][9]. - In terms of PPI, the drag effect based on trade eased after excluding the 0.2 - percentage - point drag of oil prices. The PPI of export - oriented industries improved marginally, and the price of PPI durable consumer goods manufacturing industry rebounded [1][9]. - In terms of CPI, food performed better than the seasonal level, but the upward momentum of core consumer goods prices continued to weaken. Attention should be paid to the launch of a new round of consumption - promotion policies [2][13]. 3. Summary According to the Directory 3.1 May Price Trend: Potential Changes Behind the "Unchanged" Trend - **PPI**: The month - on - month decline in May remained at - 0.4%.

Food supply tightening supported prices, short - term consumption demands such as tourism and clothing continued to be released, while prices of rent, furniture, and cars linked to residents' long - term income were still falling. Core consumer goods have dragged down CPI for two consecutive months after excluding the impact of gold prices, and a new round of consumption - promotion policies may be launched [2][13]. 3.2 May CPI: Food and Tourism Perform Better than Seasonal Levels, but Month - on - Month Decline Continues Due to Oil Price Drag - **Overall Situation**: In May 2025, the listing of fresh vegetables supported the food item, tourism in non - food items performed better than the seasonal level.

The factors affecting CPI month - on - month change from high to low were: services (0)> livestock meat (- 0.01pct)> fresh produce (- 0.03pct)> core consumer goods (- 0.03pct)> energy (- 0.13pct) [2][16]. - **Food Item**: The month - on - month decline of the food item fell back to around - 0.2%, stronger than the seasonal level, affecting CPI to decline by about 0.04 percentage points.

Oil prices dropped, clothing was the main supporting item in core consumer goods, while furniture and car prices still had a drag. Travel - related prices in services were resilient, but rent was still weak [23][24][25]. 3.3 May PPI: Oil Price Drag Increases, Price Decline of Export Industries Narrows, and Month - on - Month Decline Remains at - 0.4% - **Overall Situation**: The month - on - month decline of PPI remained around - 0.4%, mainly dragged down by production materials, while the performance of living materials improved. In May, production material prices decreased by 0.6% (- 0.1pct), and the prices of living materials turned from negative to flat [30]. - **By Industry**: The number of industries with price declines among industrial producers was still around two - thirds. The drag factors were the crude oil industry chain, building - material - related prices, and energy prices such as coal and gas. The supporting factors were export - related industries such as automobiles and machinery, and the non - ferrous metal industry [4][31][36].
