1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The overall mid - term outlook for the black building materials industry is "oscillating" [7]. - The outlook for specific varieties is also mostly "oscillating", including steel, iron ore, coke, etc. [9][10][13] 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - After the important meeting, although the tone is positive, it fails to meet the market's overly enthusiastic expectations, leading to a decline in black prices. However, as the previous bubble is squeezed out, there may be subsequent positive policies. The terminal demand has not shown an obvious turnaround, and the focus currently lies in the intermediate links. The market is volatile, and deep declines are not expected in the short term. It is recommended to wait and see to avoid risks, and focus on policy implementation and terminal demand performance in the future [1][2][6] 3. Summary by Related Catalogs Iron Element - Overseas mine shipments have increased month - on - month, while the arrival volume at 45 ports has decreased. Steel mills' profitability has increased again, but iron water production has decreased in some areas due to rainfall, remaining at a high level year - on - year. Iron ore inventories at 45 ports, in berthing ships, and at mills have all decreased. With high demand and inventory reduction in the iron ore market, there is limited negative driving force in the fundamentals. After the macro - sentiment cools down, the price has slightly declined, and it is expected to oscillate in the future [2] Carbon Element - Some coal mines have resumed production, but production disturbances still exist, and overall supply is slowly recovering. The average daily customs clearance of Mongolian coal at the Ganqimaodu Port remains high. Coke production is temporarily stable, and the rigid demand for coking coal is strong. Upstream coal mines are still reducing inventories. Affected by the recent decline in the futures market, the downstream and traders are more cautious. Currently, the supply - demand contradiction in the fundamentals is not prominent, and the short - term futures market is expected to be highly volatile [3] Alloys - The continuous increase in coke prices has strengthened the cost support for ferromanganese - silicon. The manganese ore market is more cautious, but traders are reluctant to sell at low prices, and port ore prices remain firm. The demand for ferromanganese - silicon from steel mills is still resilient, but as manufacturers resume production, the supply - demand relationship may gradually become looser. The supply - demand relationship of ferrosilicon is healthy, and both are expected to oscillate in the short term [6] Glass - In the off - season, glass demand has declined, deep - processing orders have decreased month - on - month, and the number of days of raw glass inventory has increased. After the futures market decline, the spot market sentiment has cooled down. The supply is expected to remain stable. The "anti - involution" sentiment may fluctuate, and the short - term futures and spot markets are expected to oscillate widely [6] Soda Ash - In the long term, the over - supply situation of soda ash is difficult to change. In the short term, the "anti - involution" sentiment has driven up the futures market, but the delivery pressure is large. It is easy to rise but difficult to fall in the short term, and the long - term price center will decline [6] Steel - After the Politburo meeting, the macro - trading has temporarily ended. There is a possibility of policy adjustment on the supply side and an increase in infrastructure steel demand. The export is expected to remain resilient. The actual implementation effect of steel mill production restrictions needs to be tracked. The steel market fundamentals are showing signs of weakening, and there is short - term downward pressure on prices. Attention should be paid to steel mill production restrictions and terminal demand [9] Iron Ore - Port transactions have decreased significantly. Overseas mine shipments have increased, and the arrival volume at ports has decreased. Steel mills' iron water production has decreased, and inventories have decreased. The fundamentals have limited negative driving force, and the price is expected to oscillate after a slight decline [10] Scrap Steel - The supply and demand of scrap steel have increased significantly. The inventory has slightly accumulated, and the price is expected to follow the trend of finished products [11] Coke - The futures market is oscillating weakly, and the spot price has decreased. Coke production is temporarily stable, and demand is still strong. The supply - demand structure is tight, and price increases are accelerating. The futures market is expected to oscillate widely in the short term [13][14] Coking Coal - After the macro - meeting, the market sentiment has cooled down, and the futures market has declined significantly. The supply is slowly recovering, and demand is stable. The supply - demand contradiction in the fundamentals is not prominent, and the short - term futures market is expected to be volatile [13][14] Ferromanganese - Silicon - After the Politburo meeting, the macro - sentiment has cooled down, and the futures price has declined weakly. The supply - demand relationship may gradually become looser, and the price is expected to oscillate in the short term [18] Ferrosilicon - The futures price has declined significantly due to the weakening of market sentiment. The supply is expected to increase, and demand is resilient. The supply - demand relationship is healthy, and the price is expected to oscillate in the short term [19]

As market expectations for policies cooled down, the prices of some related varieties decreased rapidly. Fundamentally, the daily glass output was 159,600 tons with a slight upward trend. On the demand side, the manufacturers' shipments weakened significantly, and the release of term - merchant supplies due to the decline in futures prices could form a negative feedback on the spot market. After the double - month upward trend, the inventories of middle and downstream were relatively sufficient, and the short - term restocking willingness was weak. The total inventory of national float glass sample enterprises decreased week - on - week. With the increase in spot prices, the enterprise profits continued to recover, and the expected reduction in supply was postponed. As the market sentiment became rational, glass gradually shifted to fundamental pricing [7] 4.3 Trading Strategies - **Single - side**: The trend is weak, giving back the emotional premium [10] - **Arbitrage**: Reverse calendar spread arbitrage for glass 9 - 1 [10] - **Options**: Wait and see [10] 4.4 Related Attachments - The attachments include charts of glass basis, 9 - 1 spread, warehouse receipt quantity, main - contract open interest, main - contract trading volume, daily melting, manufacturer inventory, apparent demand, and profits using different fuels, with data sources from Galaxy Futures and Longzhong Information [11][13][17][19][20][24]

需求端，瑞达期货（002961）分析称，当前地产形势不容乐观，房地产依旧表现低迷，下游深加工订单 下滑，采购以刚需为主，汽车玻璃厂备货量增加难以抵消地产相关需求疲软，光伏玻璃需求也面临库存 压力。 后市来看，五矿期货表示，短期玻璃受到宏观政策提振，但随着情绪释放出现大幅度回调，预计短期内 以震荡为主。当前玻璃库存明显下降主要是期现商拿货所致，实质上库存下降程度有限，下游房地产需 求数据暂时没有特别明显的好转。中长期来看，玻璃跟随宏观情绪波动，房地产方面若有实质性政策出 台，期价或能延续上涨趋势，但若需求继续疲软，则需要供给端持续收缩，才能有较大的上涨空间。 宏观层面，据中辉期货介绍，近期市场围绕"反内卷"政策预期交易，工信部表示钢铁、有色金属、石 化、建材等十大重点行业稳增长工作方案即将出台，市场情绪再次被点燃。 供应方面，建信期货指出，近期受到光伏玻璃企业计划减产的影响，光伏玻璃日熔量开始走低。浮法玻 璃的供应也随着日熔量的走低出现回落，因此库存压力降进一步增大，对玻璃基本面带来不小的压力。 目前，行业中游库存处于高位，成为价格上行的主要阻力，而玻璃产能去化进程缓慢，导致后期库存存 在进一步累积压力。 7月 ...

短期风险对冲只能解燃眉之急，行业真正的可持续发展仍需依赖基本面的实质性改善。 当前政策预期为市场注入短期情绪动力，但要实现从"预期回暖"到"实质反转"的跨越，还需三大支撑： 政策细则的精准落地，包括老旧装置退出清单的明确、环保技改补贴的兑现；下游需求的企稳回升，既 需要房地产竣工面积的实际增长，也依赖光伏装机规模的持续扩大；产能结构的深度优化，推动高成本 产能加速出清与天然碱法替代进程。 王铭之表示，市场终将回归理性，能穿越周期的永远是务实者。"在行业洗牌中脱颖而出的企业，往往 是那些在狂热时保持冷静、在悲观时提前布局的市场主体。"他说。 "反内卷"政策为玻璃、纯碱市场注入的并非简单的价格上涨动力，而是倒逼产业升级的转型契机。这轮 由政策预期推动的市场行情，既暴露了行业长期存在的供需失衡、产能结构僵化等深层问题，也推动企 业在波动中探索更理性的生存法则。在政策预期与市场现实的持续博弈中，玻璃、纯碱企业正从短期风 险管理到长期产业转型，逐步勾勒出"反内卷"背景下的破局路径。 政策暖风下的市场波动，让风险管理成为企业生存的"必修课"。调研中期货日报记者发现，利用期货期 权等工具管理风险已成为行业共识，为企业筑起了 ...
