1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report - The weak market of coke and coking coal futures continues, and there may be new lows in the next two weeks. However, positive factors in fundamentals and news are accumulating. Attention should be paid to whether there will be a turnaround in the market with changes in tariff policies and recovery of confidence in the steel market in the next two weeks [11]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Market Review and Future Outlook 3.1.1 Futures Market Performance - On May 21, the main contracts of coke and coking coal futures, J2509 and JM2509, oscillated and rebounded, but the gains narrowed. The JM2509 contract hit a new low of 835 yuan/ton for the September contract since September 2016 during the night trading session [7]. - The closing prices of J2509 and JM2509 were 1417.5 yuan/ton and 842 yuan/ton respectively, with a decline of 0.14% and 0.36% respectively. The trading volumes were 19,389 lots and 392,164 lots respectively, and the open interests decreased by 1,902 lots and 5,210 lots respectively. The capital outflows were 0.43 billion yuan and 0.33 billion yuan respectively [5]. 3.1.2 Spot Market Dynamics and Technical Analysis - On May 21, the spot prices of quasi - first - class metallurgical coke at Rizhao Port, Qingdao Port, and Tianjin Port were 1390 yuan/ton, and that in Tangshan was 1320 yuan/ton, with no change.
