Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - After the previous continuous rise, high - level hot sectors such as AI have shown divergence recently. Sectors like energy storage, chips, and non - ferrous metals have emerged. Although short - term index fluctuations have increased, the policy support for the capital market remains unchanged. In the medium and long term, the main idea is to go long on dips [2][3]. - For the bond market in the fourth quarter, the supply - demand pattern may improve. The market is in a situation of weak domestic demand recovery and improved inflation expectations, and is expected to maintain a volatile trend. Attention should be paid to the stock - bond seesaw effect [5]. - For most non - ferrous metals, factors such as supply tightening, macro - policy easing, and relatively stable demand support price increases, but different metals have different specific driving factors and price trends [8][9][10][11]. - For black building materials, the current steel demand is weak, but with the macro - environment turning loose, the market's expectation of demand recovery is rising.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided in the content. 2. Core Views of the Report - 4Q25 macro - tone is generally favorable for precious metals, but price volatility is expected to increase. Market expectations of interest - rate cut rhythm, economic outlook interpretations, and supply bottlenecks of platinum and palladium will drive price fluctuations and asset performance differentiation [13]. - For non - ferrous metals, the contradiction lies in whether macro - level benefits can offset micro - level demand weakness and supply contradictions. Prices are expected to fluctuate widely between the bottom range provided by macro - level easing expectations and the top range formed by industrial fundamentals pressure [2][45]. - The core drivers of black commodities will revolve around policy uncertainty and demand effectiveness. Prices are supported in the early stage but face significant downward risks in the middle and later stages of the quarter [3][57]. - The core contradiction of energy and chemical commodities is whether macro - level easing expectations can offset the fundamental pressure at the bottom of the industrial cycle. 4Q25 will be a bottom - grinding process [4][76]. - For agricultural products, export - country control measures may create artificial supply shortages and upward price risks, while import - country procurement rhythms, quota management, and domestic substitution policies form downward price pressure. La Nina - induced supply contraction expectations and current supply pressures and weak global macro - demand will drive price trends [5][91]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Precious Metals: Risks after the Interest - Rate Cut "Boot Drops" - **Monetary Policy Path Risk**: The Fed's interest - rate cut in September started a new round of easing, but the rhythm, depth, and end - point of the subsequent path are uncertain. Hawkish risks (slower - than - expected rate cuts) will push up the US dollar index and real yields of US Treasuries, negatively affecting precious metals. Dovish risks (faster - than - expected rate cuts) will be a major positive for all precious metals [13][23][26]. - **Economic "Landing" Form Risk**: The market will sway among "soft landing", "hard landing", and premature recovery scenarios in 4Q25. A "soft landing" is beneficial for the precious - metal sector as a whole. A "hard landing" will lead to significant differentiation within the sector, with gold rising and silver, platinum, and palladium potentially falling. Premature recovery trading may cause gold to face pressure while silver and platinum may benefit [29][30][31]. - **Supply - Side and Geopolitical Risk**: Supply - side risks mainly affect platinum and palladium due to their concentrated production in South Africa and Russia. Any production interruption in these countries can cause price surges. Geopolitical risks will increase the volatility of gold and silver, with gold having a more sustainable safe - haven premium [33][35]. - **Structural Market Dynamic Change Risk**: The sustainability of central - bank gold - buying demand is in doubt. The "platinum - for - palladium" substitution in the automotive industry is a long - term negative for palladium and a positive for platinum. Speculative funds in the precious - metal market are profit - seeking and volatile, which can amplify price fluctuations [37][42][44]. 3.2 Non - Ferrous Metals: Macro - Level Benefits and Industrial Weakness Risks - **Macro - Economic Narrative Risk**: The Fed's interest - rate cut provides support for non - ferrous metals, but different economic scenarios ("soft landing", "hard landing", and premature recovery) will have different impacts on non - ferrous metals. A "soft landing" is beneficial for copper, aluminum, and lithium to different extents. A "hard landing" will hit all industrial non - ferrous metals. Premature recovery trading will bring a "Davis double - click" for copper and aluminum [45][46][47]. - **Sino - Foreign Policy - Level Risk**: China's "anti - involution" policies may affect the supply of polysilicon, industrial silicon, and potentially copper and aluminum. Trade frictions, political instability in Guinea, and lithium - mine supply risks in Africa also pose threats to non - ferrous metals [50][52]. - **Supply - Side Bottleneck Risk**: Global copper - mine supply is tight, which is a strong support for copper prices. The resumption time of some lithium mines in China is uncertain, which creates two - way risks for lithium prices [53][55]. 3.3 Black Commodities: Policy Game and Demand Downturn Risks - **Downstream Demand Structural Differentiation and Total Slowdown Risk**: The real - estate industry's weakness suppresses the demand for construction steel and the entire black - commodity chain. The manufacturing industry provides support for plate - type steel, but its demand may face challenges in 4Q25. Infrastructure investment may also slow down, affecting the demand for construction steel [58][59][60]. - **Supply - Side Policy Risk**: The implementation of the "flat - control" policy for crude - steel production is uncertain. Strict implementation will benefit steel prices but harm raw - material prices, while non - implementation or under - implementation will lead to supply - surplus pressure on steel prices [66]. - **Raw - Material Supply - Side Structural Risk**: Iron - ore supply is expected to increase seasonally, which may lead to price declines. Coking - coal supply, especially for high - quality coking coal, is tight, which supports coking - coal and coke prices and squeezes steel - mill profits [70][71]. - **Inventory and Market Structural Risk**: Steel inventories face a cyclical inflection point. If post - holiday demand is weak, it will lead to passive inventory accumulation and price declines. Iron - ore port inventories may accumulate, which will pressure iron - ore prices [74]. 3.4 Energy and Chemicals: Long - Term Capacity Clearance and Prolonged Bottom - Grinding Risks - **Geopolitical and Supply - Side Seasonal Risk**: Geopolitical risks, such as the situation in the Red Sea and OPEC+ production policies, can affect oil prices. In winter, natural - gas supply shortages in Iran may increase methanol prices, and LPG supply may also be affected [77][81]. - **Inventory Level and Industrial - Chain Internal Profit Risk**: The global crude - oil market is expected to enter a stocking phase in 4Q25, which may put downward pressure on oil prices. High inventories of some chemicals, such as methanol and LPG, will suppress their prices. Profit - distribution contradictions in the chemical industrial chain are intensifying [83][84][87]. - **Structural Over - Capacity and Industry Profit - Cycle Risk**: The chemical industry is in a long - term over - capacity situation. Polyolefins, methanol, and LPG are severely affected. The process of capacity clearance is slow, and the low - price, low - profit industry pattern will persist [89][90]. 3.5 Agricultural Products: Risks under Policy and Weather Interference - **Key Countries' Policy Risk**: Export - control measures of major agricultural - product exporters can cause price surges, while import - country policies, such as China's procurement and quota management, can limit price increases [92]. - **Terminal Demand Weakness Risk**: Global economic slowdown weakens consumer purchasing power, affecting the demand for cotton, oils, sugars, and feed raw materials. China's internal demand also has structural risks, and changes in bio - fuel policies can affect the demand for corn and vegetable oils [98][100][103]. - **Global Supply Cycle Risk**: The concentrated listing of Northern - Hemisphere autumn - harvest crops brings short - term supply pressure. The long - term supply situation is affected by policies and climate [91]. - **Global Climate Risk**: The evolution towards La Nina poses risks to the upcoming Southern - Hemisphere sowing season and Southeast - Asian production [91].

Domestic economic data was lower than expected, and domestic risk appetite decreased. The market focuses on domestic incremental policies, and the short - term upward drive has strengthened. It is advisable to be cautiously long in the short term [4]. 3.3 Black Metals 3.3.1 Steel - Last Friday, the domestic steel futures and spot markets rose and then fell, with low trading volume. Near the holiday, the risk - aversion sentiment increased, and the news of EU tariffs on Chinese steel products also affected the market. The real demand continued to weaken, but there were differences among varieties. The demand for rebar improved, with a 13.98 - million - ton inventory decline and a 10.41 - million - ton increase in apparent consumption this week. Hot - rolled coils accumulated inventory, and apparent consumption decreased. Steel supply remained high. The steel market is likely to oscillate within a range before the holiday [5]. 3.3.2 Iron Ore - Last Friday, iron ore futures and spot prices rose and then fell. The daily iron - water output increased to over 242 million tons, and steel mills continued to replenish stocks before the National Day, so the demand for ore remained strong. The global iron - ore shipping volume decreased by 248 million tons this week, while the arrival volume increased by 312.7 million tons. The port inventory increased by 169 million tons. Although the market has negative feedback expectations, the probability of actual negative feedback in the short term is low. The iron - ore price is expected to oscillate within a range in the short term, with a risk of negative feedback from late October to November [7]. 3.3.3 Silicon Manganese/Silicon Iron - Last Friday, the spot prices of silicon iron and silicon manganese remained flat, and the futures prices declined slightly. The开工 rate of silicon manganese enterprises decreased, and the daily output decreased. The downstream demand is expected to improve in October. The prices of silicon iron and silicon manganese are expected to continue to oscillate within a range [8]. 3.4 Non - ferrous Metals and New Energy 3.4.1 Copper - The manufacturing PMIs of the US, the eurozone, Japan, and the UK all declined marginally. The second - largest copper mine, Grasberg, announced a shutdown, affecting about 27 million tons of production, but it has a复产 schedule, which reduces market speculation [9]. 3.4.2 Aluminum - Last Friday, the aluminum price was stable. It is expected to oscillate within a narrow range of 200 - 300 points in the short term. The social inventory decreased by 2.1 million tons due to pre - holiday restocking, but the inventory will accumulate during the holiday. The de - stocking is less than expected during the peak season [10]. 3.4.3 Aluminum Alloy - The supply of scrap aluminum is tight, the cost of recycled aluminum plants is rising, and the demand is weak. The price is expected to oscillate strongly in the short term, but the upside is limited [10]. 3.4.4 Tin - The smelting start - up rate in Yunnan and Jiangxi increased to 30.13%, remaining at a low level. The supply will be more abundant after November. The demand has improved slightly, but the terminal demand is still weak. The price is expected to oscillate in the short term [10][11]. 3.4.5 Lithium Carbonate - As of September 25, the weekly output of lithium carbonate increased by 0.8% to 20,516 tons, and the weekly start - up rate was 50.55%. The social inventory decreased slightly, and the downstream continued to replenish stocks. The fundamentals have improved marginally, and the price is expected to oscillate strongly [11]. 3.4.6 Industrial Silicon - As of September 26, the weekly output decreased by 0.8% to 96,432 tons, and the furnace - opening rate was 38%. The social inventory remained unchanged, and the warehouse - receipt inventory increased. There is no obvious driving force, and the price is expected to oscillate within a range [12]. 3.4.7 Polysilicon - The output in September was about 13 million tons, and the start - up rate is expected to decrease in October. The inventory remained high, and the warehouse - receipt decreased. The supply is high, and the demand is low. It is necessary to wait for the implementation of the state - purchase news [12]. 3.5 Energy and Chemicals 3.5.1 Crude Oil - The supply risk of Russia has increased, and the Middle East situation is tense, so the bottom support for crude oil remains. However, the export from northern Iraq has resumed, and OPEC may increase production next week, so the price pressure at the end of the year is still large [13]. 3.5.2 Asphalt - The rebound of oil prices has driven the rebound of asphalt prices. However, the peak - season demand is over, and the surplus pressure remains. The short - term basis is declining, and the inventory is not significantly reduced. The profit has recovered, and the start - up rate has increased significantly [13]. 3.5.3 PX - PX has been oscillating weakly. The PXN spread has decreased to 206 US dollars, and the external price has been oscillating at 815 US dollars. The polyester market has declined, and PX is expected to continue to oscillate weakly with some support [13]. 3.5.4 PTA - There was news of joint production cuts, but no substantial confirmation. The medium - term supply pressure is still large. The short - term basis has increased slightly, but the processing fee is still low. The downstream start - up rate has declined, and the upside space is limited [14]. 3.5.5 Ethylene Glycol - The port inventory is low, but the enterprise inventory is high. There is new production - capacity release pressure in the next two years. The downstream start - up rate is lower than in previous years, and the de - stocking is limited. It is expected to oscillate at a low level [16]. 3.5.6 Short - fiber - The price of short - fiber has declined. The terminal orders have increased seasonally but not significantly. The inventory has increased slightly due to the rebound of the start - up rate. The follow - up increase space is limited [16]. 3.5.7 Methanol - The inventory has decreased due to reduced imports and increased port - system utilization. The supply and demand situation has improved marginally, and the price is expected to consolidate and wait for new driving forces [16]. 3.5.8 PP - The supply is expected to increase as the devices are expected to restart. The downstream demand is in the peak season but has not improved significantly. The inventory pressure is not large, but the production - start expectation and high supply suppress the market. The price is difficult to improve [16]. 3.5.9 LLDPE - The downstream start - up rate has increased, and the orders and start - up of agricultural films are recovering. However, the supply pressure is still large, and there is new production - capacity release expectation. The overall surplus pattern remains unchanged [16]. 3.5.10 Urea - The domestic urea market has a loose supply - demand pattern. The supply pressure is obvious as the previously shut - down devices are resuming production. The demand support is weak. The enterprise inventory is accumulating. The price is expected to oscillate at the bottom in the short term [16]. 3.6 Agricultural Products 3.6.1 US Soybeans - The net short - position of managed funds in soybean futures and options has increased recently. The short - term pressure on US soybeans has increased due to Argentina's zero - tariff export, concentrated soybean harvest, and Sino - US tariff disputes. However, the harvest progress is slower than expected, and the drought in the production area has worsened, so there is support. The CBOT soybean is still cautiously optimistic [15][17]. 3.6.2 Soybean Meal and Rapeseed Meal - Argentina's zero - tariff window has reduced the risk of soybean and oil - meal shortages in the first quarter of next year. The soybean arrival at domestic oil mills will shrink in the fourth quarter, and the import cost is stable. After the National Day, the inventory pressure of oil mills is expected to decrease, and the cost - driven valuation - repair market for soybean meal is mature. The supply of imported rapeseed meal has decreased seasonally, and the domestic rapeseed inventory is low. Rapeseed meal is mainly influenced by soybean meal [17]. 3.6.3 Oils - The supply of domestic rapeseed and rapeseed oil is insufficient, and the high inventory of rapeseed oil is being reduced, so the price is likely to rise. The supply - demand of soybean oil is loose, and there is a risk of inventory accumulation after the National Day. The supply of palm oil is expected to decrease in the fourth quarter, and the inventory in the production area is low. The overall oil market is stable and is expected to oscillate within a range [18]. 3.6.4 Corn - The old - crop corn inventory is low, and the new - crop corn has a high opening price. The new - crop corn harvest in North China has been delayed by weather, and the price has rebounded. The downstream feed - mill inventory is at a low level, but the replenishment sentiment is low. The futures price has a deep discount to the spot price, and there is strong support [18]. 3.6.5 Hogs - Before the National Day, the market was pessimistic, and the pig price continued to decline. The supply - demand is still in surplus in the short term, and the pig price is under seasonal pressure after the National Day. In the medium term, the pig price may stabilize and rebound when the loss deepens and the consumption peak season comes [19].
