Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided Group 2: Core Views of the Report - The market's optimistic sentiment has cooled as the positive impact of the Fed's rate cut has materialized.

At the same time, the pre - holiday stocking demand of downstream enterprises has improved, and purchases have increased. With multiple factors at play, it is expected that lead prices will remain volatile at high levels in the short term, and there may be a slight adjustment after the downstream stocking ends [3][7] Group 3: Summary by Directory Transaction Data - From September 12th to September 19th, the SHFE lead price rose from 17,040 yuan/ton to 17,150 yuan/ton, an increase of 110 yuan/ton; the LME lead price fell from 2,019 dollars/ton to 2,003 dollars/ton, a decrease of 16 dollars/ton; the Shanghai - London ratio increased from 8.44 to 8.56, an increase of 0.12; the SHFE inventory decreased by 9,229 tons to 57,332 tons; the LME inventory decreased by 9,275 tons to 220,300 tons; the social inventory increased by 0.35 million tons to 3.94 million tons; the spot premium increased by 10 yuan/ton to - 115 yuan/ton [4] Market Review - Last week, the main contract of SHFE lead switched to PB2511, and the futures price fluctuated narrowly at a high level, closing at 17,180 yuan/ton, a weekly increase of 0.76%.

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided Group 2: Core Views of the Report - Last week, the main contract price of Shanghai lead futures was under pressure. The US economic data recovery, inflation concerns, and the Fed officials' suppression of interest - rate cut expectations led to a rebound in the US dollar, dragging down lead prices, but Powell's dovish speech at the Jackson Hole meeting improved interest - rate cut expectations and boosted lead prices [2][7][8]. - Fundamentally, the supply of lead concentrates remained tight, and the raw material inventory of electrolytic lead smelters in Henan and Hunan was low. Electrolytic lead showed a pattern of co - existence of reduction and resumption of production. The profit of secondary lead smelters was poor, and some reduced production due to losses. The battery consumption did not improve significantly, and the peak - season effect was insufficient [2][7][8]. - Overall, the interest - rate cut expectations improved, but the fundamentals were weak in both supply and demand. Supply was regionally tight, but consumption was lackluster, and inventories remained at a relatively high level. The LME inventory increase trend continued, putting pressure on lead prices.
