产业上下游影响分化 本报记者 冯雨瑶 2026年开年以来，铜价持续高位运行。生意社数据显示，截至2月26日，现货铜价最新为10.20万元/ 吨，同比增长32.51%。 供需错配支撑铜价上行 对于驱动铜价上涨的因素，上海钢联铜事业部分析师曾健辉告诉记者："其一是供应的扰动为铜价提供 了上涨的逻辑支撑，铜精矿供应偏紧；其二是需求导向，传统领域需求不减，另外新能源、AI智能电 气化等对于铜消费又存在强预期；其三地缘政治冲突使得市场避险情绪升温，贵金属大幅上涨，带动铜 的避险属性。" 摩根大通最新预测，2026年全球铜市场将出现13万吨供应缺口，工业金属供需格局迎来关键转向。作为 新能源、电网、AI算力与高端制造的核心原材料，铜的短缺将直接抬升价格中枢，重塑产业链利润分 配，国内具备资源与产能优势的铜业龙头将显著受益。 供给端刚性约束是缺口形成的核心原因。据了解，全球铜矿勘探开发周期长达5年至8年，过去十年矿企 资本开支偏低，新增产能释放缓慢；主力矿山品位持续下滑、产区地缘扰动频发，进一步压制供给弹 性。国金证券报告指出，2025年铜矿产量指引多次下调，2026年预计增量有限。 而反观需求端，AI数据中心等正成为拉动 ...

Investment Rating - The industry investment rating is "Overweight" for both Electric Equipment & New Energy and Nonferrous Metals [6]. Core Views - The export ban on lithium ore and lithium concentrate from Zimbabwe is expected to have limited medium to long-term supply-side disruptions, as the ban primarily targets lithium concentrate and companies with local lithium sulfate processing capabilities will be less affected [1][3]. - The Zimbabwean government aims to promote local lithium salt plant construction, and several Chinese mining companies are already in the process of building or planning lithium salt plants, which should mitigate long-term supply issues [1][3]. - The short-term tightening of lithium supply may lead to price increases for upstream raw materials, but the overall impact on the lithium battery supply chain is manageable [1][4].

Section 3: Export Recovery and Supply-Side Repair - The resumption of exports will depend on two conditions: companies must hold valid mining rights and approved processing plans, and downstream processing capacity must be established [3]. - Chinese companies are expected to restore export volumes, with the government providing a timeline for the resumption of exports after local processing capacity is developed [3]. Section 4: Price Transmission and Company Recommendations - The demand for lithium is expected to remain strong, with significant procurement activities from state-owned enterprises leading to increased prices and project cash flow improvements [4]. - Recommended companies include: - Hunan Yunneng (301358 CH) with a target price of 112.98 and a "Buy" rating [8]. - Fulmin Precision (300432 CH) with a target price of 29.38 and a "Buy" rating [8]. - CATL (300750 CH) with a target price of 566.18 and a "Buy" rating [8]. - EVE Energy (300014 CH) with a target price of 96.96 and a "Buy" rating [8].
