1. Report's Overall Investment Rating - The report does not provide an overall investment rating for the industries [1][2][3] 2. Core Views - The ongoing Middle - East geopolitical conflicts, especially the Iran - US - Israel situation, are the core variables affecting the global macro - pattern and financial markets. The US inflation and economic outlook face increased risks, while China's foreign trade shows strong resilience. In a complex environment with multiple factors at play, investors should adopt a cautious approach and focus on risk management [2] 3. Summary by Industry Financial Futures - **Macro**: The IEA will release 4 billion barrels of emergency oil reserves. The US 2 - month CPI and core CPI are in line with expectations. The Middle - East geopolitical situation, especially the Iran - related conflicts, continues to ferment [1][2][3] - **RMB Exchange Rate**: In the short - term, due to the relatively strong US dollar index and concerns about inflation and Middle - East conflicts, the RMB is difficult to start a trend appreciation. In the medium - to long - term, if the domestic economic fundamentals improve and exports remain resilient, the RMB may show a moderate appreciation trend. Export enterprises are advised to lock in forward exchange settlement at around 6.93, and import enterprises can adopt a rolling foreign exchange purchase strategy at around 6.82 [3][4] - **Stock Index**: The impact of geopolitics is gradually weakening, and the trading logic is returning to the domestic market. The market sentiment has not fully recovered. In the short - term, the stock index is expected to fluctuate, and investors are advised to hold positions and wait and see [5] - **Treasury Bonds**: The market is waiting for new driving forces. After the decline, the value of treasury bonds has increased. Investors can hold a small long - term position and make low - batch purchases at different price levels, waiting for a high - price sell [6] Commodities New Energy - **Lithium Carbonate**: In the medium - to long - term, the demand growth logic of downstream industries remains unchanged, and the industry fundamentals support the long - term value of lithium carbonate. Recently, due to significant macro - impacts and large market fluctuations, investors can look for opportunities to go long on dips [7] - **Industrial Silicon & Polysilicon**: The global energy transition is an irreversible trend, and photovoltaic is the core track of energy structure transformation. The industry is currently at the bottom of the production cycle, and investors should track the "anti - involution" process and marginal optimization signals of the supply - demand structure [8][9] Non - ferrous Metals - **Aluminum Industry Chain**: The short - term trend of Shanghai aluminum is dominated by the war situation. For aluminum and alumina, investors can consider selling deep - out - of - the - money put options. For cast aluminum alloys, investors can pay attention to the price difference with aluminum and take corresponding long - short positions [11][12] - **Copper**: The futures market has capital inflows and outflows. The intraday trend of Shanghai copper fluctuates around the moving average. The investment strategy remains unchanged [12][15] - **Zinc**: In the short - term, affected by inventory accumulation and overall pressure on the sector, zinc prices may be weak and fluctuate horizontally. In the medium - term, the outlook is relatively strong [16] - **Nickel - Stainless Steel**: The intraday and night - session trends are volatile. Due to supply fluctuations in Indonesia and increased downstream procurement sentiment, the short - term new energy link may be strong. For stainless steel, attention should be paid to the release rhythm of subsequent demand [17][18] - **Tin**: The price is supported at the bottom and is expected to fluctuate strongly [19][20] - **Lead**: The price is expected to fluctuate within a range, and investors can conduct range operations [21] Oils, Fats, and Feeds - **Oilseeds**: The US soybean and domestic soybean meal prices are strong. The supply pressure of imported soybeans will be alleviated in the second quarter. The domestic soybean meal inventory is rising, and the vegetable meal supply is recovering. The market is expected to be strong in the short - term, and investors can consider positive spreads between months or widening the spread between soybean meal and vegetable meal [22][23] - **Oils**: The oil market rebounds with the rise of crude oil prices. The Indonesian and US bio - fuel policies are beneficial to the market. In the short - term, attention should be paid to the development of the Iran situation and the results of the US bio - fuel policy review next week [24][25] Energy and Oil & Gas - **SC**: The market focus is on the Middle - East situation. Although the IEA has announced a large - scale oil release, the closure of the Strait of Hormuz has caused a supply gap, and the market is still uncertain [27][28] - **Fuel Oil**: The supply - side constraints support the fuel oil market, and the high - and low - sulfur fuel oil prices remain high. The short - term strong market pattern is difficult to change [30] - **Asphalt**: The asphalt price follows the cost of crude oil. The short - term geopolitical disturbance is the core factor, and investors need to beware of a sharp price drop when the Middle - East situation eases [31] Precious Metals - **Platinum and Palladium**: In the medium - to long - term, the bull - market foundation remains. In the short - term, investors need to beware of panic selling caused by concerns about inflation and delayed interest - rate cut expectations due to the repeated Middle - East situation. Dips can be considered as opportunities to go long [33][35] - **Gold & Silver**: The strategy is to be bullish on precious metals in the long - term. Dips are opportunities to go long. Attention should be paid to the support levels of gold and silver, as well as the impact of the Middle - East situation on inflation and monetary policy [36][37] Chemicals - **Pulp - Offset Paper**: The spot price of softwood pulp is stable, and the futures price of pulp fluctuates in a relatively reasonable range. The futures price of offset paper is affected by the overall sentiment of the energy - chemical sector and the pulp price. In the short - to medium - term, both are expected to fluctuate [39][40] - **Pure Benzene - Styrene**: Affected by the Middle - East conflict, the cost support for pure benzene and styrene is enhanced. The market is volatile, and attention should be paid to geopolitical risks [41] - **LPG**: The price is affected by the rise of crude oil. The market situation depends on the development of the US - Iran conflict and the situation of the Strait of Hormuz [42][44] - **Methanol**: The trading logic has changed. In the short - term, methanol may catch up with the increase of olefins. The import volume is expected to decrease. Attention should be paid to the risk of geopolitical easing [46] - **Plastic PP**: The polyolefin market is affected by the news of the planned production reduction of petrochemical plants. The short - term supply pressure is limited, and the focus is on the Middle - East situation and the navigation of the Strait of Hormuz [47][48] - **Rubber**: The synthetic rubber is strong, which supports the valuation of natural rubber. The closure of the Strait of Hormuz has a negative impact on rubber demand. The overall market is volatile. In the medium - term, investors can be bullish on dips, and in the short - term, they should be cautious [49][54] - **Glass and Soda Ash**: The soda ash supply may be affected by maintenance, and the inventory is better than expected. The glass supply has a return expectation, and the medium - level inventory restricts the price increase. Both are expected to fluctuate [55][57] Black Metals - **Rebar & Profit**: The rise in the prices of coke and iron ore provides cost support for steel prices, but the high inventory of hot - rolled coils limits the upward space. The short - term steel price may rebound, but the rebound height is limited [60][61] - **Iron Ore**: The market is strong due to tightened spot liquidity, but the fundamentals show seasonal supply - demand weakness. The supply pressure is high, and the demand is weak. The upward space is limited, and investors with long positions can consider taking profits [61][64] - **Coking Coal and Coke**: The supply of coking coal may be affected by safety inspections. The supply pressure of Mongolian coal is high. The coking profit is improving, and the coke production may increase. The black - metal prices may face downward pressure due to weak steel exports [65][67] - **Ferrosilicon & Ferromanganese**: The cost support for ferrosilicon and ferromanganese is increasing, but the weak downstream demand and high inventory of steel plates limit the upward space [68][69] Agricultural and Soft Commodities - **Hogs**: The pig market is affected by weak post - Spring - Festival demand. The price is supported by second - fattening sentiment but lacks upward driving force. Investors can sell call options on the main hog contract [71][73] - **Cotton**: The domestic cotton supply - demand situation is expected to tighten, which supports the price. However, the high domestic - foreign cotton price difference limits the upward space. Attention should be paid to the geopolitical situation in the Middle - East and US foreign trade policies [74][75] - **Sugar**: The sugar futures price is strong, driven by the rise in oil prices. The market expects a tightening of sugar supply, and the short - term strong pattern is expected to continue [76] - **Eggs**: The egg price is supported by concentrated demand release but is restricted by high inventory. The short - term price is expected to be strong, and investors can sell call options on the main egg contract [76][77] - **Apples**: The apple futures price is supported by fundamentals and delivery logic. The 05 contract has a prominent shortage of delivery products, and the price is expected to fluctuate strongly [85][86] - **Jujubes**: The market focus is on demand. The current downstream sales are weak. Under the overall loose supply - demand situation in China, the jujube price may fluctuate at a low level [87] - **Logs**: The emotional fluctuations in the log market have converged, and the price is expected to return to a volatile state. The inventory is rising, and the demand has not fully recovered. Investors can adopt a wait - and - see or range - trading strategy [88][89]

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Group 2: Core Viewpoints of the Report - The impact of the 2026 government work report on the black sector is relatively neutral, in line with market expectations, with neither excessive policy stimulus nor significant under - performance [1] - On the demand side, policies support "two important" and "two new" work, providing structural demand support for the black metal sector, but real - estate - related steel demand release is still restricted [4] - On the supply side, policies promote green - low - carbon transformation and comprehensive rectification, leading to potential reduction and quality improvement of crude steel supply, and putting marginal pressure on upstream raw material demand [7] Group 3: Summary by Related Catalogs Demand - side Analysis - **Macro - policy support**: In 2026, the government continues to implement a more proactive fiscal policy and a moderately loose monetary policy. The deficit rate is about 4%, the deficit scale is 5.89 trillion yuan, an increase of 230 billion yuan from the previous year. 1.3 trillion yuan of ultra - long - term special treasury bonds and 4.4 trillion yuan of local government special bonds are to be issued. The total amount of ultra - long - term special treasury bonds and local government special bonds is the same as the previous year. Policies support "two important" and "two new" work, providing long - term support for steel demand [4] - **Real - estate situation**: The real - estate policy is still focused on stability. There is a low probability of large - scale stimulus, and the release of real - estate - related steel demand is restricted [5] - **Product - specific demand**: For rebar, infrastructure investment may support demand, but real - estate - related construction steel demand will continue to drag down. For hot - rolled coils, there is obvious demand support, but the increment may be limited due to the weakened policy subsidy for consumer goods replacement [6] Supply - side Analysis - **Policy - driven transformation**: The report promotes green - low - carbon transformation in key areas, controls high - energy - consumption and high - emission projects, and sets a target of reducing carbon dioxide emissions per unit of GDP by about 3.8%. It also strengthens anti - monopoly and anti - unfair competition, and rectifies "involution - style" competition [7][10] - **Impact on supply and related industries**: These policies contribute to the reduction and quality improvement of crude steel supply, and may lead to a decline in the demand for iron ore, coke, and coking coal. For manganese - silicon and silicon - iron, although their demand is affected by the expected reduction in crude steel output, there are also structural opportunities, and the supply pattern may be optimized [10]
