Market Overview - As of October 24, iron ore port inventory reached 151.09 million tons, an increase of 1.48 million tons compared to the previous trading day [1] - On October 29, national main port iron ore transactions were 951,000 tons, a week-on-week increase of 6.61%; forward spot transactions were 1.23 million tons [2] Company Performance - On October 30, Australian mining company Mineral Resources Limited reported that its total iron ore production for Q3 2025 (first quarter of Australian FY2026) reached 10.90 million tons, with total shipments of 11.40 million tons [1] Institutional Insights - Zhengxin Futures noted an overall improvement in macro sentiment, coupled with better funding for terminal construction sites, leading to a strong rebound in iron ore prices. Despite a slight decline in iron production, demand remains resilient. Port inventory continues to accumulate due to increased arrivals, while steel mill profits have slightly rebounded, accelerating restocking [3] - Copper Crown Jinyuan Futures reported that recent steel mill procurement has been active, with strong demand for high-quality ore pushing up spot prices. Although iron production remains high, the significant decrease in supply arrivals has alleviated some supply pressure, leading to a week-on-week decline in port inventory [4]

Report Summary 1. Investment Ratings - Steel: Sideways [1] - Iron Ore: Sideways to Bearish [2] - Coking Coal: Sideways [5] - Coke: Sideways [5] - Thermal Coal: No Strategy Provided [6] 2. Core Views - Steel market sentiment is warming up, and the futures market continues to rebound. However, the improvement of the weak industrial reality is limited, and attention should be paid to subsequent steel mill production cuts and demand destocking [1]. - Iron ore prices are running strongly, but the overall valuation is high, and there is a possibility of supply - demand weakening in the future, which may put pressure on prices [2]. - The prices of coking coal and coke have rebounded significantly due to supply disturbances. The supply of coking coal is expected to be tight, and the demand for coke remains resilient [3][4]. - The support of rigid demand for thermal coal has weakened, and the coal prices in the production areas continue to decline [6]. 3. Summary by Commodity Steel - **Market Analysis**: The futures prices of rebar and hot - rolled coils are at 3133 yuan/ton and 3345 yuan/ton respectively. Spot transactions are average, with weak rigid demand and more low - price purchases in the futures - spot market. The basis has shrunk. The inventory of building materials is being depleted, iron - water production is slightly decreasing, steel mill profits are shrinking, and production continues to increase. The production - sales contradiction of plates is large, and inventory pressure is obvious. Short - term macro sentiment has warmed up, and raw material support is strong [1]. - **Strategy**: Sideways for single - sided trading; no strategies for spread trading, cross - commodity trading, futures - spot trading, and options trading [1]. Iron Ore - **Market Analysis**: Futures prices continued to rise yesterday. Spot prices of mainstream imported iron ore varieties are strong. Traders' quotes mostly follow the market, and steel mills' purchases are mainly for rigid demand. The cumulative spot trading volume at major ports is 95.1 tons, up 6.61% from the previous day; the cumulative forward - looking spot trading volume is 123.0 tons (11 transactions), down 26.26% from the previous day. The current overall valuation of iron ore is high, and the supply is relatively loose at high prices. Although steel mill profits continue to decline, production cuts are limited, iron - water production remains high, and the decline in iron ore demand is slow. There is a possibility of supply - demand weakening in the future [2]. - **Strategy**: Sideways to bearish for single - sided trading; no strategies for spread trading, cross - commodity trading, futures - spot trading, and options trading [2]. Coking Coal and Coke - **Market Analysis**: The futures prices of coking coal and coke rose significantly yesterday. Due to environmental protection, safety inspections, and concentrated working - face changes in the production areas, production has been continuously restricted. An accident in an individual coal mine has intensified market concerns about coal supply in the fourth quarter. The price of imported Mongolian coal fluctuates slightly, with the price of Mongolian No. 5 raw coal at 1130 - 1150 yuan/ton. Some coke enterprises have initiated the third round of price increases, and the supply - demand contradiction of coke has eased. The market sentiment of coking coal is positive, and the overall inventory is at a medium - low level, with resilient demand [3][4]. - **Strategy**: Sideways for single - sided trading of both coking coal and coke; no strategies for spread trading, cross - commodity trading, futures - spot trading, and options trading [5]. Thermal Coal - **Market Analysis**: In the production areas, coal prices are weakening. Rigid demand from chemical plants and large terminal customers has weakened. After major railway bureaus cancelled railway shipping discounts, the shipping cost of terminals has increased, and the enthusiasm of traders for shipping has declined. At ports, the daily consumption of coastal terminals has decreased, traders are reluctant to sell at low prices, and buyers are more hesitant. The import coal market is weakly stable, with imported goods mostly in the hands of traders, and the winning bid prices of power plants are falling [6]. - **Strategy**: No strategy provided [6]

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - The sentiment in the steel market remains positive, with prices rising. However, the demand lacks explosive power, and it is necessary to observe the evolution of contradictions. Carbon elements are expected to outperform iron elements in the fourth quarter [2]. - The market sentiment for ferrosilicon and silicomanganese is warm, and prices are strong, but there are still concerns in the fundamentals, and more supply - demand changes should be monitored [2]. - The spot price of coking coal and coke is rising, and the coking coal 05 contract has reached a new high. Consider going long on the coking coal contract if the price retraces to the previous high and holds [4]. - For iron ore, the supply is stable, but there are risks of supply - demand imbalance in the fourth quarter. Short - term observation is recommended [5]. Summary by Related Catalogs Steel - On October 29, the far - month contract closing prices of RB2605, HC2605, JM2605, and J2605 were 7000, 12605, 6000, and 5000 yuan/ton respectively. The near - month contract closing prices of HC2601, RB2601, J2601, and JM2601 were 3133.00, 3345.00, 804.50, and 1302.00 yuan/ton respectively [1]. - On October 29, the prices of steel products showed different degrees of increase. The sentiment in the market may be supported by the upcoming leaders' meeting. The steel inventory is decreasing seasonally, but there is still a high - output dilemma. It is recommended to observe the evolution of contradictions. Consider going long on the 01 contract when the spread between hot - rolled coil and rebar is below 150, and take rolling profit for the futures - cash reverse arbitrage [2][5]. Ferrosilicon and Silicomanganese - The market sentiment is warm, and prices are strong. However, there are hidden concerns in the fundamentals, and negative feedback pressure may occur. It is recommended to go long at low prices [2][5]. Coking Coal and Coke - On the spot side, the trading atmosphere in the port market has improved, and the prices of coking coal and coke are rising. The coking coal 05 contract has broken through the previous high. Fundamentally, the supply of coking coal is low, and the demand from steel mills is strong. It is recommended to go long at low prices on the futures side, and industrial customers can consider selling part of the spot due to the premium of the coke futures [4][5]. Iron Ore - The supply of iron ore is within a reasonable range. There are risks of supply - demand imbalance in the fourth quarter due to high pig iron production. The expected increase in supply from Simandou restricts the price ceiling. Short - term observation is recommended [5].

Report Summary 1. Industry Investment Rating There is no information provided regarding the industry investment rating in the given reports. 2. Core Viewpoints - For the steel industry, in the long - term, steel prices' upward logic remains unchanged under the increasingly loose macro - environment. However, in the short - term, the actual demand for steel is still weak and unlikely to improve substantially. Attention should be paid to the impact of Sino - US talks and overseas macro - environment changes on market sentiment [2]. - For the iron ore market, the price is expected to fluctuate. Although the supply is increasing and the demand is weakening with the decline of iron - making water production, the positive signals from Sino - US economic and trade consultations and the expected interest - rate cut by the Federal Reserve have an impact on the market [5]. - For the black metal sector, the outlook is not pessimistic. It is considered more cost - effective to look for rebound opportunities after price corrections rather than short - selling. The downward momentum of the black metal sector has significantly weakened after nearly four years of decline [10]. - For industrial silicon, the supply pressure persists, and the demand support is weakening. The price is expected to fluctuate with market sentiment in the short - term, and the cost provides some support [14]. - For polysilicon, the supply pressure may be marginally relieved, and the supply - demand pattern may improve. The price is affected by policy expectations and industry news, and attention should be paid to the actual implementation [16]. - For glass, the futures price rebounded due to short - position exits, and the market's bearish sentiment eased. Attention should be paid to macro - policy trends and the operation of production lines in the Shahe area [19]. - For soda ash, the price is expected to continue narrow - range fluctuations in the short - term due to the combination of cost support and high inventory [21]. 3. Summary by Category Steel - **Market Quotes** - The closing price of the rebar main contract was 3133 yuan/ton, up 42 yuan/ton (1.358%) from the previous trading day. The registered warehouse receipts decreased by 1221 tons to 124,540 tons, and the main contract's open interest decreased by 36,350 lots to 1.894 million lots. The Tianjin and Shanghai aggregated prices increased by 30 yuan/ton and 20 yuan/ton respectively [1]. - The closing price of the hot - rolled coil main contract was 3345 yuan/ton, up 40 yuan/ton (1.210%) from the previous trading day. The registered warehouse receipts increased by 3402 tons to 104,773 tons, and the main contract's open interest decreased by 12,738 lots to 1.461 million lots. The Lecong and Shanghai aggregated prices increased by 30 yuan/ton and 20 yuan/ton respectively [1]. - **Strategic Views** - Macroscopically, real - estate investment will shift from "scale expansion" to "quality improvement", and the new construction area is unlikely to increase significantly. Fundamentally, rebar's supply and demand both increased, and inventory continued to decline; the output of hot - rolled coils decreased slightly, demand improved marginally, and inventory reduction accelerated [2]. Iron Ore - **Market Quotes** - The main contract of iron ore (I2601) closed at 804.50 yuan/ton, up 1.51% (+12.00). The open interest decreased by 6094 lots to 542,900 lots, and the weighted open interest was 916,500 lots. The spot price of PB powder at Qingdao Port was 805 yuan/wet ton, with a basis of 52.06 yuan/ton and a basis rate of 6.08% [4]. - **Strategic Views** - The supply of iron ore is increasing, with the overseas shipment volume at a high level. The demand is weakening as the daily average iron - making water production has dropped below 240,000 tons. The port inventory is increasing, and the price is under pressure. However, positive macro - signals may affect the market [5]. Ferrosilicon and Manganese Silicon - **Market Quotes** - On October 29, affected by the market atmosphere and other factors, the price of ferrosilicon and manganese silicon rebounded. The main contract of manganese silicon (SM601) closed up 1.07% at 5852 yuan/ton, and the Tianjin spot price was 5720 yuan/ton, with a basis of 58 yuan/ton. The main contract of ferrosilicon (SF601) closed up 0.54% at 5594 yuan/ton, and the Tianjin spot price was 5650 yuan/ton, with a basis of 56 yuan/ton [8]. - **Strategic Views** - The supply of ferrosilicon and manganese silicon may be restricted in the future. Currently, steel mills are facing difficulties due to high supply and low demand, and there is a risk of "negative feedback". The outlook for the black metal sector is not pessimistic, and it is more cost - effective to look for rebound opportunities. Manganese silicon and ferrosilicon are likely to follow the black metal sector's trend [9][10]. Industrial Silicon and Polysilicon - **Market Quotes** - The main contract of industrial silicon (SI2601) closed at 9170 yuan/ton, up 2.40% (+215).

The average price of N - type granular silicon was 50.5 yuan/kg, and the average price of N - type dense material decreased by 0.5 yuan/kg to 51 yuan/kg [15]. - **Strategic Views** - For industrial silicon, the supply pressure persists, and the demand support is weakening. The price is expected to fluctuate with market sentiment in the short - term, and the cost provides some support [14]. - For polysilicon, the supply pressure may be marginally relieved, and the supply - demand pattern may improve. The price is affected by policy expectations and industry news, and attention should be paid to the actual implementation [16]. Glass and Soda Ash - **Market Quotes** - The glass main contract closed at 1113 yuan/ton on Wednesday, up 1.64% (+18). The inventory of float glass sample enterprises increased by 233.74 million cases (3.64%) to 66.613 million cases.
