供需端双增,铅价高位震荡
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. The fundamentals are expected to show a situation of both supply and demand increasing. Primary lead smelters will resume production in the second half of the month, and some secondary lead smelters will resume production due to profit recovery, leading to an expected increase in supply. 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%. LME lead fluctuated sideways around 2,000 dollars/ton, closing at 2,003 dollars/ton, a weekly decrease of 0.79%. In the spot market, the supply of goods was limited, and holders held firm on prices. Downstream enterprises mainly made purchases based on rigid demand and preferred to buy directly from smelters [5] Industry News - In the week of September 12th, the average domestic lead concentrate processing fee remained unchanged at 350 yuan/metal ton compared with the previous week, while the average imported lead concentrate processing fee decreased by 10 dollars/dry ton to - 100 dollars/dry ton [8] Related Charts - The report includes multiple charts showing the trends of SHFE and LME lead prices, Shanghai - London ratio, inventory, lead ingot premium, price difference between primary and secondary lead, waste battery prices, secondary lead enterprise profits, lead ore processing fees, electrolytic lead and secondary refined lead production, lead ingot social inventory, and refined lead import profit and loss [10][13][17][20][21]

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided in the report 2. Core Views of the Report - The strengthening of the Fed's interest rate cut expectation provides positive support for the lead price. Meanwhile, the concentrated maintenance of primary lead and secondary lead smelters eases the supply - demand pressure, and capital inflows drive the lead price up. However, demand is difficult to improve significantly. With the resumption of production of some primary lead smelters under maintenance and the possible marginal increase in supply after the secondary lead profit is restored due to the rise in lead price, it is expected that the upward momentum of lead price is limited. Investors should be cautious about chasing the rise and beware of the risk of a high - level decline [4][8] 3. Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Transaction Data - From September 5th to 12th, the SHFE lead price rose from 16,900 yuan/ton to 17,040 yuan/ton, an increase of 140 yuan/ton; the LME lead price rose from 1,988 dollars/ton to 2,019 dollars/ton, an increase of 31 dollars/ton; the Shanghai - London ratio decreased from 8.50 to 8.44, a decrease of 0.06; the SHFE inventory decreased from 66,834 tons to 66,561 tons, a decrease of 273 tons; the LME inventory decreased from 248,200 tons to 229,575 tons, a decrease of 18,625 tons; the social inventory increased from 3.59 million tons to 3.94 million tons, an increase of 0.35 million tons; the spot premium remained at - 125 yuan/ton [5] 3.2 Market Review - Last week, the SHFE lead main contract PB2510 fluctuated narrowly in the first half - week and soared on Friday afternoon, closing at 17,040 yuan/ton, with a weekly increase of 0.83%. The LME lead price first declined and then rose, closing at 2,019 dollars/ton, with a weekly increase of 1.56%. In the spot market, on September 12th, the lead prices in Shanghai and Jiangsu - Zhejiang markets were at a discount to the SHFE 2510 contract. Downstream enterprises mainly made long - term order purchases and were hesitant about high - priced goods [6] - As of September 12th, the LME weekly inventory was 248,200 tons, a weekly decrease of 18,625 tons; the SHFE inventory was 66,561 tons, a decrease of 273 tons from the previous week. As of September 11th, the SMM five - region social inventory was 6.7 million tons, a decrease of 600 tons from Monday and an increase of 900 tons from last Thursday. With the approaching of the current - month contract delivery, the inventory may increase again [7] 3.3 Industry News - In the week of September 12th, the average domestic lead concentrate processing fee was 350 yuan/metal ton, a decrease of 50 yuan/metal ton from the previous week; the average imported lead concentrate processing fee was 90 dollars/dry ton, remaining unchanged from the previous week [9] 3.4 Related Charts - The report presents multiple charts, including those showing the SHFE and LME lead prices, Shanghai - London ratio, SHFE and LME inventories, 1 lead premium, LME lead premium, primary - secondary lead price difference, secondary lead enterprise profit, lead ore processing fee, electrolytic lead and secondary refined lead production, lead ingot social inventory, and refined lead import profit and loss [11][14][18][22]
消费成色不足,铅价偏弱运行
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. In the short term, lead prices are expected to remain volatile, and the inversion of refined and secondary lead prices provides some support [2][7][8]. Group 3: Summary by Directory 3.1 Transaction Data - From August 15th to August 22nd, the SHFE lead price decreased from 16,850 yuan/ton to 16,780 yuan/ton, a decrease of 70 yuan/ton; the LME lead price increased from 1,981 dollars/ton to 1,992 dollars/ton, an increase of 11 dollars/ton; the Shanghai - London ratio decreased from 8.51 to 8.42, a decrease of 0.08; the SHFE inventory decreased by 1,154 tons to 63,690 tons; the LME inventory increased by 11,950 tons to 273,050 tons; the social inventory increased by 0.35 million tons to 3.94 million tons; the spot premium remained at - 155 yuan/ton [5]. 3.2 Market Review - Last week, the main PB2509 contract of Shanghai lead futures continued to be under pressure and fluctuated narrowly, closing at 16,780 yuan/ton with a weekly decline of 0.42%. The LME lead price was weak due to the rising US dollar and inventory increase, but finally closed at 1,992 dollars/ton with a weekly increase of 0.56% [6]. - In the spot market, as of August 22nd, the prices of lead in Shanghai and Jiangsu - Zhejiang markets were at a discount to the SHFE 2509 contract. The downstream procurement enthusiasm was general, and the spot market trading was light [6]. - As of August 22nd, the LME weekly inventory was 273,050 tons, an increase of 11,950 tons; the SHFE inventory was 63,690 tons, a decrease of 1,154 tons. As of August 21st, the SMM five - region social inventory was 6.99 million tons, a decrease of 0.11 million tons from Monday and an increase of 0.19 million tons from the previous Thursday [7]. 3.3 Industry News - As of August 22nd, the average domestic lead concentrate processing fee was 400 yuan/metal degree, a decrease of 100 yuan/metal ton compared with the previous period; the average imported ore processing fee was - 90 dollars/dry ton, a decrease of 10 dollars/dry ton [9]. - In July, the import volume of lead concentrates was 122,300 tons, a month - on - month increase of 3.59% and a year - on - year increase of 28.35%. The cumulative import volume from January to July was 793,000 tons, a cumulative year - on - year increase of 30.68%. The export volume of refined lead and lead alloys in July was 4,199 tons, a month - on - month decrease of 13.04%, and the import volume of refined lead and lead products was 16,317 tons, a month - on - month increase of 42.1% [9]. 3.4 Related Charts - The report provides 14 related charts, including SHFE and LME lead prices, Shanghai - London ratio, inventory, lead ingot premium, price difference between primary and secondary lead, waste battery price, secondary lead enterprise profit, lead ore processing fee, electrolytic lead and secondary refined lead production, lead ingot social inventory, and refined lead import profit and loss [10][13][15][18][19][21].

Report Summary 1. Investment Rating No investment rating information is provided in the report. 2. Core View - Market expectations for the Fed's interest rate cuts are inconsistent, and market risk appetite lacks sustainability. The fundamentals continue to show a pattern of a slight increase in supply but lower-than-expected demand. High inventory levels put pressure on lead prices, while the relatively stable supply-demand gap at the cost end provides support. There are few new contradictions in the short term, and lead prices are expected to fluctuate within a narrow range, with the integer resistance level above remaining effective [4][9]. 3. Summary by Section Transaction Data | Contract | 8/8 | 8/15 | Change | Unit | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | SHFE Lead | 16,845 | 16,850 | 5 | Yuan/ton | | LME Lead | 2,003.5 | 1,981 | -22.5 | US dollars/ton | | SHFE - LME Ratio | 8.41 | 8.51 | 0.10 | - | | SHFE Inventory | 62,334 | 64,844 | 2,510 | Tons | | LME Inventory | 268,375 | 261,100 | -7,275 | Tons | | Social Inventory | 3.59 | 3.94 | 0.35 | Ten thousand tons | | Spot Premium | -150 | -155 | -5 | Yuan/ton | [5] Market Review - The price of the main SHFE lead contract PB2509 declined under pressure last week. The price rebounded but was blocked by the integer resistance level and then fell, closing at 16,850 yuan/ton, with a weekly increase of 0.03%. LME lead first rose and then fell, closing at 1,981 US dollars/ton, with a weekly decline of 1.12% [6]. - In the spot market, as of August 15, the price of lead in the Shanghai and Jiangsu - Zhejiang markets showed a downward trend. The inventory of LME decreased, while the SHFE inventory and social inventory increased. The delivery of the current - month contract led to an increase in inventory [7]. Industry News - As of August 15, the average domestic lead concentrate processing fee remained unchanged, while the average import ore processing fee decreased by 15 US dollars/ton compared to the previous period [10]. - Some lead - smelting enterprises in Henan may face air - quality environmental protection emergency control from August 26 to September 3, which may restrict vehicle transportation [10]. Related Charts The report provides multiple charts, including SHFE and LME lead prices, SHFE - LME ratios, inventory levels, lead price premiums and discounts, price differences between primary and secondary lead, waste battery prices, secondary lead enterprise profits, lead ore processing fees, electrolytic lead and secondary refined lead production, lead ingot social inventory, and refined lead import profit and loss [12][13][15][18][19][21][23][25].
供应端扰动,铅价重心抬升
Group 1: Report Investment Rating - No information provided Group 2: Core Views - Last week, the main contract price of Shanghai lead futures rebounded weakly. The market strengthened the expectation of the Fed's interest rate cut in September, and China's import and export data in July were good, with stable economic growth and a slight increase in market risk appetite [3][6][7]. - Fundamentally, the improvement of the raw material side was not obvious. The processing fees of lead concentrates at home and abroad were under pressure, the supply - demand contradiction of waste batteries still existed, and the price was firm. However, downstream smelters were cautious in high - price purchases, and recyclers lacked confidence [3][6][7]. - In the smelting sector, the production of primary lead smelters was stable. Some smelters were under maintenance for a month in mid - and late August, and the supply in August was expected to increase slightly month - on - month. For secondary lead, the sewage inspection in Anhui affected local smelters, boosting the market sentiment and leading to a rebound in lead prices. Currently, smelters still had large losses, and unplanned production cuts were possible [3][6][7]. - On the demand side, the peak season was dull. In August, the impact of tariffs emerged, new export orders for batteries decreased, and due to high temperatures in many places, some battery enterprises took holidays, with limited production increase space [3][6][7]. - Overall, the rebound of interest rate cut expectations suppressed the US dollar, supporting lead prices. The sewage inspection in Anhui slightly disturbed the supply side and boosted market sentiment, but the impact was controllable. With stable electrolytic lead production, mediocre consumption, and high inventory pressure, the lead price rebound lacked sustainability. In the short term, lead prices were expected to fluctuate and consolidate, with resistance around 17,000 yuan [3][6][7]. Group 3: Summary by Directory Transaction Data - From July 18th to July 25th, the SHFE lead price rose from 16,735 yuan/ton to 16,845 yuan/ton, an increase of 110 yuan/ton; the LME lead price rose from 1,974 dollars/ton to 2,003.5 dollars/ton, an increase of 29.5 dollars/ton; the Shanghai - London ratio decreased from 8.48 to 8.41; the SHFE inventory decreased by 949 tons to 62,334 tons; the LME inventory decreased by 6,950 tons to 268,375 tons; the social inventory decreased by 0.18 million tons to 7.11 million tons; the spot premium remained at - 150 yuan/ton [4]. Market Review - Last week, the main PB2509 contract of Shanghai lead futures rebounded weakly, closing at 16,845 yuan/ton, a weekly increase of 0.66%. LME lead stopped falling and rebounded, closing at 2,003.5 dollars/ton, a weekly increase of 1.49% [5]. - In the spot market as of August 8th, the prices of lead in Shanghai and Jiangsu - Zhejiang regions were at a discount to the SHFE 2509 contract. Recycled lead smelting enterprises tried to maintain prices, and the recycled refined lead was quoted at a premium of 0 - 50 yuan/ton to the SMM 1 lead average price [5]. - In terms of inventory, as of August 8th, the LME weekly inventory decreased by 6,950 tons to 268,375 tons, and the SHFE inventory decreased by 949 tons to 62,334 tons. As of August 7th, the SMM five - region social inventory decreased by 800 tons compared with Monday and 0.18 million tons compared with last Thursday. However, due to the approaching delivery of the current - month contract, there was a possibility of inventory stop - falling and rebound [6]. Industry News - As of August 8th, the average domestic lead concentrate processing fee was 500 yuan/metal degree, and the average import ore processing fee was - 60 dollars/dry ton, both remaining unchanged from the previous period [8]. - The sewage inspection in Anhui affected local secondary lead smelters. Some smelters stopped production and waited for further notice, while others maintained production [8]. Related Charts - The report provides 14 charts, including SHFE and LME lead prices, inventory, lead ingot premiums, spreads between primary and recycled lead, waste battery prices, recycled lead enterprise profits, lead ore processing fees, lead production, social inventory, and refined lead import profit and loss [9][12][13][15].

Group 1: Investment Rating - No investment rating information is provided in the report. Group 2: Core Viewpoints - The lead price is currently in a short - term upward trend, driven by improved macro - sentiment and expectations of consumption improvement. However, the recovery of secondary lead smelter profits increases the expectation of resuming production, which is not conducive to the lead price. The lead price is expected to be volatile and slightly stronger in the short term, and there is a risk of price retracement when the positive sentiment fades [3][6][8]. Group 3: Summary by Sections 1. Transaction Data - From June 20th to June 27th, the SHFE lead price rose from 16,810 yuan/ton to 17,125 yuan/ton, an increase of 315 yuan/ton; the LME lead price rose from 1,995 dollars/ton to 2,041.5 dollars/ton, an increase of 46.5 dollars/ton. The Shanghai - London ratio decreased from 8.43 to 8.39. The SHFE inventory increased by 638 tons to 51,929 tons, while the LME inventory decreased by 10,650 tons to 273,425 tons. The social inventory increased by 0.03 million tons to 5.6 million tons, and the spot premium decreased by 10 yuan/ton to - 170 yuan/ton [4]. 2. Market Review - Last week, the main contract of SHFE lead switched to PB2508, breaking through the 17,000 - yuan integer mark and rising strongly, with a weekly increase of 1.87%. The LME lead price also broke through the shock range, with a weekly increase of 2.33%. In the spot market, after the SHFE lead price rose and then fell, holders maintained a discount for sales, and the supply of secondary refined lead increased with an expanded discount, resulting in sluggish trading in the electrolytic lead market [5]. 3. Industry News - In July, the average domestic and imported lead concentrate processing fees were 550 yuan/metal ton and - 45 dollars/dry ton respectively, down 50 yuan/metal ton and - 15 dollars/dry ton month - on - month [8]. 4. Related Charts - The report provides multiple charts, including SHFE and LME lead prices, Shanghai - London ratio, inventory, lead ingot premium, price difference between primary and secondary lead, waste battery price, secondary lead enterprise profit, lead concentrate processing fee, primary and secondary lead production, lead ingot social inventory, and refined lead import profit and loss [10][11][13][15][17][21].

供应端矛盾支撑,铅价反弹驱动不足
Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant information provided Core Viewpoints - Geopolitical conflicts have escalated, leading to a decline in macro - risk appetite. Fundamental support has increased, with a sequential decline in recycled lead supply due to environmental inspections and losses. However, consumption is in the transition phase between peak and off - peak seasons, showing no obvious recovery, and inventory has increased slightly, slowing down the upward momentum of lead prices. Supply - side contradictions support lead prices to fluctuate strongly, but significant improvement in consumption is needed to effectively open up the upside space. Short - term attention should be paid to the resistance around 17,200 yuan/ton [3][7] Summary by Directory 1. Transaction Data - From June 6th to June 13th, the SHFE lead price rose from 16,780 yuan/ton to 16,945 yuan/ton, an increase of 165 yuan/ton; the LME lead price rose from 1,974 dollars/ton to 1,992.5 dollars/ton, an increase of 18.5 dollars/ton; the SHFE - LME ratio remained unchanged at 8.50. The SHFE inventory increased by 1,875 tons to 49,811 tons, the LME inventory decreased by 16,300 tons to 264,975 tons, and the social inventory increased by 0.08 million tons to 5.47 million tons. The spot premium decreased by 15 yuan/ton to - 205 yuan/ton [4] 2. Market Review - Last week, the price center of the main SHFE lead contract PB2507 moved up, mainly boosted by the production cuts of recycled lead smelters in Inner Mongolia and Anhui due to environmental inspections. However, the increase was slowed down by the inventory increase, and it finally closed at 16,945 yuan/ton, a weekly increase of 0.98%. The LME lead price maintained a sideways shock, closing at 1,992 dollars/ton, a weekly increase of 0.91%. In the spot market, by June 13th, the price of Chihong and Honglu lead in the Shanghai market was 16,930 - 16,980 yuan/ton, at a discount of 50 - 0 yuan/ton to the SHFE 2507 contract. The ex - factory prices of electrolytic lead smelters were firm, and recycled lead smelters actively quoted for sales. Downstream enterprises were more cautious, with fewer inquiries and weaker spot market transactions [5] 3. Industry News - As of the week of June 13th, the weekly processing fees for domestic and foreign zinc concentrates were reported at 600 yuan/metal ton and - 45 dollars/dry ton respectively, remaining unchanged from the previous week [8] 4. Related Charts - The report provides 14 charts, including SHFE and LME lead prices, SHFE - LME ratio, inventory, lead price premiums and discounts, price differences between primary and recycled lead, recycled lead enterprise profits, lead ore processing fees, production of primary and recycled lead, social inventory of lead ingots, and refined lead import profit and loss [10][12][13]
