Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The current macro - level is in a relatively vacuum period, A - shares lack a clear upward main line, market trading volume remains low, and the stock index continues to fluctuate, accumulating momentum for the next round of upward movement. Meanwhile, with policy support and abundant macro - liquidity, there is still strong support below the stock index [1]. Summary by Related Catalogs Macro Finance - **Treasury Bonds**: Asset shortage and weak economy are beneficial to bond futures, but the central bank has recently warned of interest - rate risks, suppressing the upward space, showing an oscillating trend [1]. - **Copper**: The tight pattern of US dollar liquidity has eased, market risk appetite has recovered, and copper prices have stopped falling [1]. - **Aluminum**: Recently, the industrial - side driving force is limited, and the macro - level benefits have been digested, so aluminum prices are oscillating [1]. - **Alumina**: With still a small profit in production, domestic alumina production capacity is continuously released, and both production and inventory are increasing, putting pressure on the spot price. Recently, attention should be paid to the cost support [1]. - **Zinc**: The US government shutdown has reached the longest historical record, and market risk - aversion sentiment has increased. The LME zinc inventory has been continuously decreasing, and the short - squeeze movement has driven zinc prices higher. However, considering the domestic oversupply, caution is needed when chasing high prices [1]. Non - ferrous Metals - **Nickel**: The better - than - expected US ADP data has alleviated concerns about the US economic recession, but the expectation of the Fed's interest - rate cut has been suppressed, and market risk appetite has fluctuated. Indonesia has recently restricted the approval of nickel - related smelting projects again, but the approved projects are not affected. In the fourth quarter, attention should be paid to the approval of nickel - ore quotas in 2026. Nickel prices may oscillate in the short term, and high inventory pressure should be watched out for. It is recommended to trade within a short - term range, and the long - term surplus pattern of primary nickel will continue [1]. - **Stainless Steel**: The better - than - expected US ADP data has alleviated concerns about the US economic recession, but the expectation of the Fed's interest - rate cut has been suppressed, and market risk appetite has fluctuated. Indonesia has restricted the approval of nickel - related smelting projects again, but the approved projects are not affected. In the fourth quarter, attention should be paid to the progress of the approval of Indonesian nickel - ore quotas, and the premium at the ore end is currently stable. The price of raw - material ferronickel has weakened slightly, the social inventory of stainless steel has decreased slightly, and the steel mills' production plan for October is stable. Macro - sentiment is fluctuating, steel mills have recently lifted price limits, and stainless - steel futures are oscillating at the bottom. It is recommended to trade short - term and look for opportunities to sell on rallies [1]. - **Tin**: Recently, the positive macro - sentiment has been digested. Considering that the raw - material end of tin has not recovered and the new - quality demand is expected to be good, it is still recommended to pay attention to the opportunity of going long on dips in the long - term [1]. Precious Metals and New Energy - **Precious Metals (Gold and Silver)**: Judges of the high - court generally question the legitimacy of tariffs, increasing market uncertainty and supporting precious - metal prices. However, the resilience of US economic data has disrupted the interest - rate cut expectation. Precious metals are expected to oscillate within a range in the short term [1]. - **Industrial Silicon**: The production capacity in the northwest is continuously resuming, the start - up in the southwest is weaker than in previous years, and the impact of the dry season is weakened [1]. - **Polysilicon**: In the long - term, there is an expectation of production - capacity reduction. In the fourth quarter, the terminal installation will increase marginally. The anti - involution policy has not been implemented for a long time, and market sentiment has faded [1]. - **Lithium Carbonate**: The traditional peak season for new - energy vehicles is approaching, the energy - storage demand is strong, but the hedging pressure is large [1]. Ferrous Metals - **Rebar**: There are concerns about the potential weakening of industrial demand in the off - season. After the macro - sentiment is realized, attention should be paid to the upward pressure. It is advisable to participate in the out - of - the - money accumulative put option strategy [1]. - **Hot - Rolled Coil**: The off - season effect of the industry is not obvious, but the industrial structure is still loose. Similarly, attention should be paid to the upward pressure on prices after the macro - sentiment is realized [1]. - **Iron Ore**: Near - month production is restricted, but the commodity sentiment is good, and there is still an upward opportunity for far - month contracts [1]. - **Sulfur**: The direct demand is good, and there is cost support, but the supply is high, inventory is accumulating, and the sector is under pressure, with limited price rebound space [1]. - **Coke and Coking Coal**: Coking coal is struggling near the previous high, repeatedly testing the support. The high point of the coke futures price has included the expectation of five rounds of price increases, but the actual three - round price increase has been delayed, and the game is intense. Based on the tight supply, coke and coking coal are relatively strong, but considering the weakening of steel prices and the potential weakening of steel demand in November, the futures prices of coke and coking coal are likely to return to the oscillating range after a false breakout. In the short - term, it is advisable to wait and see, and in the long - term, it is still advisable to go long at low prices. Industrial customers can consider selling hedging [1]. Agricultural Products - **Palm Oil**: In the short term, palm oil still faces the dual pressures of seasonal production increase and weak exports. However, starting from November, Malaysia enters the traditional production - reduction cycle. If export data improve significantly, it may trigger a staged rebound [1]. - **Soybean Oil**: According to the China - US negotiation agreement, China will purchase 12 million tons of US soybeans in the next two months, which may bring a loose expectation for soybean oil in the fourth quarter, and the rebound momentum is insufficient. The actual impact needs to be observed [1]. - **Rapeseed Oil**: The meeting between Chinese and Canadian leaders has brought the expectation of Sino - Canadian relaxation, and the bumper harvest of Canadian rapeseed has put pressure on the futures price [1]. - **Cotton**: Although the production capacity in Xinjiang is expanding, the production capacity in the inland may decrease marginally. At the same time, due to the thinning of spinning profits in Xinjiang, the operating rate may also be affected. The contradiction between the expansion of Xinjiang's production capacity and the reduction of spinning profits makes the cotton demand in the new year highly uncertain. The current futures price has fully priced in the selling pressure of new crops, and the downward space is limited, but under the background of a record - high production of new crops, the basis and futures price may continue to be under pressure [1]. - **Sugar**: Typhoons before and after the National Day have had an adverse impact on the sugar - cane harvest and production in South China. There is a seasonal upward impetus for sugar prices in the short term. In the medium - term, considering the good growth of sugar cane this year, the rebound space after the new - sugar listing is expected to be limited [1]. - **Soybeans and Soybean Meal**: The domestic soybean purchase and crushing profit is poor, and the domestic futures price is undervalued. With the expectation of China's purchase of US soybeans, the import cost of US soybeans is expected to rise, and the domestic futures price is expected to rebound in the short term to repair the crushing profit. However, the current loose supply of domestic soybean - meal spot and the expected loose global soybean supply in the long - term limit the rebound height [1]. - **Paper Pulp**: The current trading logic of paper pulp is related to the trading of old warehouse receipts for the November contract. With weak downstream demand, the futures price is under great pressure. It is recommended to conduct a reverse spread between the November and January contracts [1]. - **Log**: The fundamentals of logs have declined, but the spot price is firm. After a sharp decline in the futures price, the risk - return ratio of short - selling is low. It is recommended to wait and see [1]. - **Live Pigs**: In the past half - month, the spot price has risen alternately in the north and south due to secondary fattening, frozen - product storage, and reluctance to sell, which has postponed the production capacity. There is still pressure on the November slaughter. In the short term, the futures price is at the same level as the spot price, and the futures price will follow the spot price to stabilize and then weaken [1]. Energy and Chemicals - **Crude Oil**: OPEC+ plans to continue a small - scale production increase in December, the short - term geopolitical speculation has cooled down, and the suspension of some China - US trade - tariff policies has eased market sentiment [1]. - **Fuel Oil**: Similar to crude oil, the short - term supply - demand contradiction is not prominent, and it follows the trend of crude oil. The demand for the 14th Five - Year Plan construction rush is likely to be falsified, and the supply of Venezuelan crude oil is sufficient. The profit of asphalt is high [1]. - **Natural Rubber**: There is strong support from raw - material costs, the mid - stream inventory is continuously decreasing, and the commodity - market atmosphere is positive [1]. - **BR Rubber**: The decline of crude - oil prices has reduced the cost support of butadiene, and the supply of synthetic rubber is loose. High - production and high - inventory have not suppressed the price, and the mainstream supply price has been continuously reduced [1]. - **PTA**: Gasoline profit and low benzene price support PX. The gasoline cracking price has risen above $15, prompting refineries to increase gasoline production and reduce the feed of aromatic - hydrocarbon units. Overseas device failures and the decline of the operating load of some domestic reforming units, as well as the rotation inspection of large domestic PTA devices, have led to a decline in domestic PTA production [1]. - **Ethylene Glycol**: The decline of crude - oil prices has led to a decline in ethylene - glycol prices, while the rise of coal prices has slightly strengthened the cost support of domestic ethylene glycol. The "Golden September and Silver October" of the polyester industry is coming to an end, and the domestic demand has not significantly declined [1]. - **Short - Fiber**: Gasoline profit and low benzene price support PX. The rebound of PTA prices has strengthened the basis of short - fiber. Short - fiber prices continue to fluctuate closely with costs [1]. - **Styrene**: The Asian benzene price is still weak, the operating rates of STDP and reforming units have declined, the arbitrage window from Northeast Asia to the US is still closed, the profit of domestic styrene has decreased, the number of styrene - device overhauls has gradually increased, and crude - oil prices have continued to fall [1]. - **Urea**: The export sentiment has eased slightly, and the limited domestic demand restricts the upward space. There is support from anti - involution and cost - end factors [1]. - **PE**: Under high - supply, the inventory pressure is large, the intensity of overhauls has weakened, and the downstream demand is slowly increasing, but the peak season is not prosperous [1]. - **PP**: The support from overhauls is limited, and the new - device production has increased the supply pressure. The downstream improvement is less than expected, and the futures price has returned to the fundamentals, showing a weak - oscillating trend [1]. - **PVC**: The overhauls have decreased compared with the previous period, and the new production capacity has been released, increasing the supply pressure. The rise of coal prices has strengthened the cost support of PVC [1]. - **Caustic Soda**: Many alumina projects in Guangxi are planned to be put into production, the subsequent concentration of overhauls will decrease, the high - concentration caustic soda is at a negative premium, the absolute price is low, and the near - month warehouse receipts are limited, so there is a risk of short - squeeze [1]. - **LPG**: The international oil - gas fundamentals are continuously loose, the CP/FEI prices have weakened, the valuation of the domestic LPG futures price has been repaired, and the domestic spot fundamentals are stable due to short - term cooling and chemical rigid demand [1]. Others - **Container Shipping (European Route)**: The positive macro - sentiment has been gradually digested, the expectation of price increases in the peak season has been priced in advance, and the shipping capacity supply in November is relatively loose [1].

Market Overview - On November 4, 2025, the silver market exhibited a rare divergence, with domestic silver T D prices rising to 11,426 CNY per kilogram, an increase of 44 CNY or 0.39%, while A-share silver concept stocks fell sharply, with the sector index dropping by 1.92% [1][3][4]. Market Dynamics - The divergence between the futures and stock markets is becoming a new norm in the precious metals market, as evidenced by the contrasting movements on the same day. The silver T D contract opened at 11,410 CNY, briefly dipped to a low of 11,211 CNY, and then rebounded to a high of 11,445 CNY in the afternoon [4][6]. - A-share silver stocks, such as Hunan Silver and Silver Nonferrous, saw declines of 1.24% and 1.33%, respectively, underperforming the broader market, which only saw a slight drop of 0.2% [4][6]. Fund Flows - On the same day, CMX silver futures saw a 15% increase in trading volume compared to the previous day, with an additional 8,000 contracts in open interest, indicating a rising demand for silver from international funds, likely influenced by expectations of a Federal Reserve rate cut [7][9]. - Conversely, the stock market experienced capital outflows, with investors showing reduced willingness to allocate funds to silver stocks, reflecting concerns over the performance of silver industry chain companies [9][12]. Industry Insights - The divergence between silver futures and stocks highlights issues in the price transmission mechanism within the industry chain. While rising futures prices can enhance product pricing for silver mining companies, the third-quarter earnings forecasts for Hunan Silver and Silver Nonferrous indicated a slowdown in net profit growth to 5% and 3%, respectively, below market expectations [10][11]. - The processing segment faces significant profit pressure, as rising raw material prices for recycled silver have increased production costs, while weak end-demand hampers the ability to pass these costs onto downstream customers [10][11]. Macro Factors - The divergence in the silver market is influenced by macroeconomic conditions, including a 0.3% decline in the U.S. dollar index, which supports non-dollar assets like silver. The anticipated Federal Reserve rate cuts are shifting capital preferences across markets [12][14]. - Geopolitical risks, such as tensions in the Middle East, have increased demand for safe-haven assets like silver, although the A-share market has not benefited from this influx of capital due to overall weakness [14][15].

Group 1 - The report predicts that Brent crude oil prices will average $68 per barrel in 2025 and may drop to $60 in 2026, which would be cheaper than five years ago [1][3] - Global oil inventories are expected to be 65% higher in 2025 compared to the peak in 2020, leading to stagnant oil demand due to the rise of electric and hybrid vehicles [3] - A decrease in oil prices is expected to ease inflationary pressures, with food prices projected to drop by 6.1% in 2025, benefiting consumers in developing countries [3] Group 2 - Fertilizer prices are projected to surge by 21% in 2025, increasing agricultural costs and squeezing farmers' profits [3][5] - Precious metals are expected to perform well, with gold prices projected to rise by 42% in 2025 and an additional 5% in 2026, while silver is expected to increase by 34% [3][5] - The World Bank advises countries to invest in technology and improve market transparency to withstand price fluctuations, indicating a need for proactive economic strategies [5]

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Views of the Report - London gold and London silver experienced a sharp correction after accelerating their upward movement in October but remained the best - performing global asset classes this year. The decline in late October was mainly a technical correction, and the medium - to - long - term upward logic remained intact [90]. - The direct driver of the precious metals' rally since late August was Powell's unexpectedly dovish speech at the global central bank meeting, followed by the Fed's consecutive interest rate cuts in September and October and the end of QT since 2022. Sticky US inflation and falling real yields on US Treasuries were positive for precious metals [90]. - Deeper concerns stemmed from the market's worries about the Fed's future independence. Trump's dismissal of Fed governor Cook challenged the Fed's independence, leading to the ineffectiveness of the Fed's forward - guidance and irreversible damage to the US dollar's credit [90]. - Since the third quarter, long - term interest rates in major global economies have risen uncontrollably, approaching a global debt crisis. US Treasuries are no longer considered a safe - haven asset, and the US dollar index is expected to decline in the medium - to - long - term, leading to the return of the traditional monetary attributes of gold and silver [90]. - Gold and silver are being re - defined as anti - inflation, risk assets, and important components of global asset allocation, with a surge in investment demand [90]. - In the remaining part of the year, the precious metals market is expected to consolidate, with volatility gradually decreasing, in preparation for the next upward movement. In the medium - to - long - term, silver is undervalued compared to gold and likely to have stronger upward potential [90]. Summary by Directory Part 1: Market Review Gold - In October, the global gold market accelerated its upward movement, then retreated after hitting a high. The Shanghai gold futures contract briefly exceeded 1,000 yuan/gram, and London gold neared $4,400/ounce. However, it later suffered a significant one - day drop, with London gold falling over 6% and breaking below $4,000 and $3,900/ounce, with a cumulative decline of over 10% [15]. - The decline was a technical correction of the previous rapid rise. The spot market remained relatively stable, with the world's largest gold ETF's holdings decreasing by less than 2% in late October [15]. Silver - In October, the global silver market also accelerated its upward movement, setting a new record high before falling back. The Shanghai silver futures contract exceeded 12,000 yuan/kg, and London silver approached $55/ounce, breaking the 2011 high. The year - to - date gain was over 80% [19]. - The rally was driven by both the gold price and a shortage of physical silver liquidity. After the liquidity shortage eased and the gold price corrected, the silver price dropped rapidly. The decline was also a technical correction, and the physical market remained relatively optimistic, with the SLV silver holdings decreasing by less than 4% in late October [19]. Part 2: Macro Logic Manufacturing Reshoring and the Decline of the US Dollar's Reserve Currency Status - The US dollar index has been in a downward trend since the beginning of the year, and the market consensus on its medium - to - long - term decline has been strengthened. The "Sea Lake Manor Agreement" aims to rebalance trade, but it may lead to a reduction in the US dollar's global settlement share and weaken its reserve currency status [24]. - Global central banks have been accelerating the process of "de - dollarization" and increasing their gold reserves. In 2024, the US dollar's share in global foreign exchange reserves dropped to 58%, a 30 - year low [24]. The Pennsylvania Plan and the US Debt Crisis - The Pennsylvania Plan aims to shift the demand for US Treasuries from external to domestic investors to stabilize the US debt market. However, it has not been very effective so far, and long - term US Treasury demand remains weak [25]. Digital Currencies and the US Debt - The US has established a regulatory framework for digital stablecoins. In the short term, stablecoins may increase the demand for US Treasuries, but in the long term, they may accelerate the collapse of the US dollar's credit if the US fails to address its twin deficits [27]. Global Debt Crisis and the Flight to Precious Metals - Global debt levels are high, and major economies' sovereign credit ratings have been downgraded. Traditional credit - based monetary systems are being questioned, leading to an inflow of funds into precious metals and cryptocurrencies [29]. - US Treasuries are no longer considered a safe - haven asset, and global central banks' gold holdings have exceeded their US Treasury holdings. As the Fed enters a new interest - rate cut cycle, central banks are expected to continue reducing their US Treasury holdings and increasing their gold reserves [32]. Shifting Asset Allocation - Global investors have been reducing their exposure to US dollar - denominated assets and increasing their allocation to non - US assets, benefiting precious metals [34]. US Economic Situation and the Fed's Policy - The US economy is still expanding, but inflation remains above the Fed's target. The Fed started a new interest - rate cut cycle in September, which is positive for precious metals [37]. - US non - farm payroll data has been disappointing, and the Fed's focus has shifted from inflation to employment. Powell's stance has turned dovish, and the market is concerned about the Fed's independence [40][43]. Redefinition of Gold - Gold is being re - defined as an anti - inflation and risk asset, and it has become an important part of global asset allocation. Global high - net - worth individuals have increased their gold allocation, driving up its price [47]. Part 3: Fundamental Logic Central Bank Gold Purchases - Global central bank gold purchases slowed down in the first half of 2025 but accelerated in the third quarter. Most central banks expect to increase their gold reserves in the next 12 months [52]. Gold Investment Demand - Gold investment demand has been increasing, with global gold ETFs attracting significant inflows in the third quarter. The gold market has returned to a supply - deficit situation [55]. Silver Supply and Demand - Silver supply growth has been slow due to factors such as high production costs and long project cycles. Industrial demand, especially from the photovoltaic and automotive sectors, has been driving up silver demand [58][61]. - The global silver market has been in a supply - deficit situation, and the supply - demand gap is expected to persist in the medium - to - long - term. The inventory structure shows a shortage of freely - tradable silver [64]. Gold - Silver Ratio - The gold - silver ratio reflects the premium of gold over silver in terms of safe - haven demand.
