Supply - side resistance to price drops and improved demand due to cooler weather led to a stable - to - rising price in the short - term.

The prices of coking coal and coke are expected to oscillate [16]. 2.3 Industrial Metals - Copper and Aluminum: The copper price continued to oscillate due to a lack of new macro - drivers and increased inventory. The aluminum price is expected to adjust at a high level, waiting for the demand performance in the peak season [18][20]. - Alumina: The supply of alumina increased, and the demand was relatively stable. The spot price was weak, and the 2601 contract was running weakly. Attention should be paid to bauxite supply disruptions [20]. - Rebar and Hot - Rolled Coil: The night - session prices of rebar and hot - rolled coil increased. The spot market trading was average, and inventory data was mixed.
