1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant information provided 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The continuation of the anti - involution market is the main macro - logical line for domestic commodity and stock market trading. Policy expectations under the current economic situation lead to the continuation of this market. The upcoming release of the MIIT's ten - key industries' stable growth plan and the start of the Yarlung Zangbo River downstream hydropower project jointly strengthen the anti - involution market, causing a general rise in domestic - priced commodities, especially industrial products [2][4]. - The background for the ten - key industries' stable growth plan is the challenges faced in the current industrial economy. The ideas for dealing with these challenges are stable growth and transformation, which are complementary. The stable growth is to consolidate the foundation, and the transformation is manifested in improving development quality and cultivating development momentum. The plan clarifies the direction of the anti - involution market, but the final implementation may not exceed expectations, and the market trend is expected to be tortuous with rapid rotation of hot sectors and varieties [6][8]. - For investment strategies, it is not advisable to go against the trend during the fermentation of the anti - involution market, and risks should be controlled and rapid price corrections should be guarded against when the market is extremely optimistic [8]. 3. Summary by Related Content Event Introduction - On July 18, MIIT's Chief Engineer Xie Shaofeng stated that a new round of stable growth work plans for ten key industries such as steel, non - ferrous metals, petrochemicals, and building materials would be implemented, and the specific plans would be released soon. On July 19, the start ceremony of the Yarlung Zangbo River downstream hydropower project was held, with a total investment of 1.2 trillion yuan, a total installed capacity of 60 million kilowatts, and an expected annual power generation of about 300 billion kilowatt - hours. These two events jointly strengthened the anti - involution market, leading to a general rise in domestic - priced commodities [2]. Market Performance - Domestic - priced commodities, especially industrial products, witnessed a long - awaited general rise. Alumina once rose more than 8% during the session, leading the domestic commodities, and varieties such as glass, soda ash, coking coal, and caustic soda once rose more than 5% during the session. The table also shows the settlement price and price change rates of various commodities such as iron ore, rolled steel, and palm oil [2][3]. Economic Situation and Policy Expectations - From the second - quarter macro data, the overall economy has resilience but is weakening marginally. The real estate sector still drags down the economy, exports face challenges, and consumption plays a major role. The continuous negative growth of PPI for 33 months indicates an endogenous deflation risk in the Chinese economy, which forms a negative feedback loop. The market has strong policy expectations under this situation, and the anti - involution market continues [4]. MIIT's Work Plan - In the second half of the year, to maintain the stable operation and high - quality development of the industrial economy, MIIT will focus on two major actions. One is to implement a new round of stable growth actions, including printing stable growth work plans for industries such as machinery, automobiles, and power equipment. The other is to implement intelligent and green transformation and upgrading actions, including printing digital transformation implementation plans for the automobile, machinery, and power equipment industries and green development outlines for the aviation and shipbuilding industries [5]. Policy Background and Ideas - The background for the ten - key industries' stable growth plan is the challenges in the current industrial economy, such as external uncertainties and industrial structural contradictions. The ideas are stable growth and transformation. Stable growth aims to consolidate the foundation, and transformation is manifested in improving development quality and cultivating development momentum. To implement these, the development environment needs to be optimized [6]. Policy Impact and Investment Strategy - The upcoming release of the MIIT's ten - key industries' stable growth plan clarifies the direction of the anti - involution market and strengthens investors' expectations. The start of the hydropower project makes up for the market's concerns about the lack of demand - side pull in the "supply - side reform". However, the final implementation of the plan may not exceed expectations, and the market trend will be tortuous. For investment, it is not advisable to go against the trend during the market fermentation, and risks should be controlled when the market is overly optimistic [8].
