Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. Core View of the Report The report analyzes the macro - economic situation at home and abroad, as well as the market conditions of aluminum, zinc, and tin in the fourth quarter of 2025. Overseas, the US economic growth momentum is weakening, and the eurozone shows a mild recovery. Domestically, the economy is in a state of fluctuating recovery, and domestic demand needs policy support. In the non - ferrous metals market, the prices of different metals are affected by various factors such as supply, demand, and macro - policies, and each has different price trends and investment outlooks [4][55][56]. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Macro: Fed Restarts Preventive Rate Cut, Domestic Economy Awaits Policy Drive Market Operation Logic - **US**: Economic growth momentum is weakening, with the manufacturing sector in a contraction zone and the service sector being the main economic support. The labor market is deteriorating, inflation is showing a slight rebound, and the Fed cut interest rates in September. The market expects a high probability of a rate cut in October, but future policies will depend on employment and inflation data [19][20][21]. - **Eurozone**: The manufacturing sector is under pressure again, while the service sector drives a mild economic recovery. Inflation is stable, and the ECB kept interest rates unchanged in September [28][29][30]. - **Domestic**: Investment growth momentum is insufficient, with infrastructure, manufacturing, and real estate investment facing challenges. Consumption shows weakening recovery momentum, but may pick up in the fourth quarter. Exports and imports maintain stable growth, and prices are expected to gradually recover [35][40][45]. Market Trend Judgment - Overseas: The US economic growth momentum is weakening, and the eurozone is in a mild recovery. The Fed may cut interest rates in October, and the ECB will be cautious about further rate cuts [55]. - Domestic: Investment growth momentum is declining, but infrastructure and manufacturing investment may stabilize and grow in the fourth quarter. Consumption may recover mildly, and exports and imports are expected to continue to grow. Prices are expected to gradually recover [56]. Later Concerns/Risk Factors Overseas economic trends, monetary policy changes, US tariff policy evolution, overseas geopolitical risks, domestic incremental policies, and terminal demand conditions [59]. Aluminum: Peak Season Drives Inventory Reduction, Focus on the Strength of "Silver October" Market Operation Logic - **Price Trend in Q3 2025**: The price of Shanghai aluminum fluctuated. In July, it first rose and then fell; in August, it remained high; in September, it rose first and then fell [61][62]. - **Cost Side**: Bauxite prices may show a weak - oscillation trend in the short term, and alumina prices are expected to continue to decline. The cost of electrolytic aluminum is expected to decline slightly [66][72][76]. - **Electrolytic Aluminum**: The operating capacity remains high, and the import loss is expanding [78][80]. - **Scrap Aluminum**: The price difference between refined and scrap aluminum has narrowed, and the industry is greatly affected by policies [82]. - **Demand Side**: The processing end shows a phased recovery, and the terminal demand is differentiated. The real estate market is still in adjustment, while the power, automotive, and other industries support demand [87][90][94]. - **Supply - Demand Balance and Inventory**: Inventory has decreased, providing support for aluminum prices [96]. Market Trend Judgment In the short term, aluminum prices are strongly supported at high levels during the peak season, but there is room for adjustment after the peak season. The price range in the fourth quarter is expected to be between 19,800 - 20,000 for support and 21,000 - 21,500 for resistance [100]. Later Concerns/Risk Factors Macro - policy games, overseas event disturbances, mine resumption and shipping conditions, inventory trends, and actual terminal demand performance [102]. Zinc Ingot: High Supply Meets Structural Demand, Inventory Pressure Needs to be Verified in Peak Season Market Operation Logic - **Price Trend in Q3 2025**: Zinc prices first rose and then fell. In the off - season, supply pressure was high, and demand was weak. In September, prices were supported by the peak season and interest - rate cut expectations but then adjusted [104][106][107]. - **Zinc Concentrate**: New production capacity is being released, and the resource shortage is gradually easing. Domestic and foreign processing fees are expected to diverge, and the import loss is expanding [108][112][116]. Market Trend Judgment In October, zinc prices are expected to continue to fluctuate, with a reference range of 21,500 - 22,500 yuan/ton [8]. Later Concerns/Risk Factors No specific information provided in the given text. Tin Ingot: Probability of Overseas Supply Increase, Risk of Price Center Decline Market Operation Logic - **Supply Side**: The resumption of production in Myanmar's Wa State is the key factor. The delay in mining progress has affected smelter operations, and processing fees are at a low level [9]. - **Demand Side**: The semiconductor, automotive, and home appliance industries support tin demand, but the growth rate may slow down in the fourth quarter [9]. Market Trend Judgment Tin prices may decline from high - level oscillations in the fourth quarter, mainly depending on the increase in production in Myanmar's Wa State [9]. Later Concerns/Risk Factors No specific information provided in the given text.
