Core Viewpoint - The recent sharp decline in commodity prices is primarily driven by emotional panic rather than a collapse in the fundamental supply and demand dynamics of the commodities themselves [2][6]. Group 1: Causes of the Decline - The core reason for the market crash is the collapse of sentiment in precious metals, which led to a sell-off across various sectors, including non-ferrous metals like copper and aluminum [2][3]. - Two key news events acted as "triggers" for the market panic: the nomination of Kevin Warsh as the next Federal Reserve Chairman, raising concerns about the end of the "cheap money era," and the easing of geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and Iran, which reduced the "geopolitical risk premium" in oil prices [3][4]. - The market was already saturated with speculative positions and high leverage, which exacerbated the sell-off when negative news emerged, leading to forced liquidations and a vicious cycle of price declines [5][6]. Group 2: Sector Analysis - **Non-Ferrous Metals**: Despite the sharp declines, the fundamental support for copper and aluminum remains intact. Issues such as declining ore grades and limited new supply for copper persist, while demand from sectors like home appliances and electric vehicles is expected to rise [8][10]. - **Energy and Chemicals**: The oil and chemical sectors experienced significant declines due to the removal of geopolitical risk premiums and concerns over weak global oil demand. However, coal and salt chemicals showed resilience as their costs are more tied to domestic coal prices [11][12]. - **Black Metals**: The black metal sector is facing pressure from both weak seasonal demand and the negative sentiment from precious metals. However, the rate of inventory accumulation is not alarming, providing some buffer against drastic price drops [13]. - **Agricultural Products**: Agricultural commodities are less affected by the recent market turmoil, as their prices are primarily driven by domestic supply and demand factors, making them more resilient to macroeconomic fluctuations [14]. Group 3: Investment Strategy - Investors are advised to distinguish between emotional market reactions and the intrinsic value of commodities. The current market turmoil is seen as a temporary emotional response rather than a fundamental shift in value [15][20]. - The recommended strategy is to adopt a wait-and-see approach, avoiding aggressive positions until market volatility decreases and signs of stabilization appear [16][19]. - Preparation for future opportunities is essential, including reassessing the supply-demand dynamics of favored commodities and planning entry strategies [17][18].

After the March contract hit the 2,300 mark, it fell back. The corn market faces a directional choice around the Spring Festival. The short - term trend is that funds will shift from the March contract to the May and July contracts, and the far - month contracts face a directional choice.

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant information provided Group 2: Core Viewpoints of the Report - The cyclical bottom of soybeans has emerged, and the subsequent decline space is limited. It is estimated that soybeans will continue to fluctuate [1] - Corn is expected to have wide - range fluctuations before the Spring Festival. If there is a large decline, consider buying on dips [1] - There is no obvious short - term driver for eggs. Due to a slight improvement in the marginal inventory compared to the second half of last year, it is not recommended to be overly bearish [2] - The darkest time for pigs around the Spring Festival has passed. Subsequently, attention should be paid to the regulation of sows to build a supply - demand balance sheet for the far - month period [4] Group 3: Summary by Related Categories Soybeans - In the Northeast soybean producing area, the spot market for low - protein soybeans is stable. The supply of high - protein soybeans is tight with the feature of high - quality and high - price.

The old - hen culling rate has slowed down, and new - laying hens are gradually entering the market, resulting in the overall production capacity remaining high [2] Pigs - At the end of 2025, the inventory of breeding sows was 39.61 million, a decrease of 1.16 million or 2.9%.
