Gamma-PGA (gamma polyglutamic acid)

According to the data monitoring of the business community, as of October 19, the average market price of zinc ingots in East China was 25628 yuan/ton, up 1.51% from the previous trading day’s price of 25246 yuan/ton, down 5.83% year on year; Compared with the zinc price of 24710 yuan/ton on October 1, the increase was 3.72%. After the festival, the zinc price rose, and the recent zinc market was strong and stable.

 

Key points of analysis

 

The increase of interest rate in the United States aggravates the concern of economic recession, and the expected growth of zinc demand declines; The dollar fell back, and zinc in London was stronger in the night. The rise of domestic zinc smelting and processing fees has stimulated the enthusiasm of zinc smelting enterprises to start work. The supply of zinc is expected to rise, while the downstream zinc alloy and zinc oxide enterprises are expected to start work at a low level. The demand for zinc is still sluggish.

 

Future market forecast

 

The overall weak supply and demand situation in the zinc market has not fundamentally changed. The rise in zinc smelting and processing fees has stimulated the growth of zinc supply, and the demand for supply growth is sluggish. It is expected that the downward pressure on zinc prices will increase in the future.

Macro policy

 

1. Domestic policy

 

The People’s Bank of China launched a 7-day 10 billion yuan reverse repo operation this week. Since 357 billion yuan reverse repo expired this week, a net withdrawal of 347 billion yuan was realized that week.

 

2. International policy

 

The yield on the 10-year US Treasury note fell 5.30 basis points to 3.901%. The UK 30-year bond yield fell 31 basis points to 4.24%.

 

Gamma-PGA (gamma polyglutamic acid)

According to CME’s “Federal Reserve Observation”: the probability of the Federal Reserve raising interest rates by 50 basis points to the range of 3.50% – 3.75% in November is 3.7%, the probability of raising interest rates by 75 basis points is 96.3%, and the probability of raising interest rates by 100 basis points is 0%; By December, the probability of an accumulative interest rate increase of 100 basis points is 1.0%, the probability of an accumulative interest rate increase of 125 basis points is 27.6%, and the probability of an accumulative interest rate increase of 150 basis points is 71.5%.

 

Kazaks, the governing committee of the European Central Bank, said that the European Central Bank should raise interest rates by 75 basis points in October, and then raise interest rates sharply again in December. Subsequently, the European Central Bank should slow down the rate of interest increase, but it may be supplemented by other measures, such as shrinking the balance sheet. The new internal model submitted by the staff of the European Central Bank to the Management Committee at the meeting last week shows that the terminal interest rate of this round of interest rate increase cycle is 2.25%.

 

Future market forecast

 

Recently, the contradiction of geopolitical conflict has escalated, the European energy crisis has continued, the risk aversion of precious metals has been boosted, and the risk aversion buying has supported precious metals. However, the consumer inflation of the core CPI in the United States hit a new 40 year high in September, and the service inflation continued to rise. The CPI achieved the fourth consecutive interest rate increase of 75 basis points in November. The risk of the Federal Reserve postponing the rate increase originally scheduled to slow down from December has increased, and the rate increase is expected to curb the price of interest free precious metals. The long short game intensified, and the price of precious metals fluctuated widely in the short term.
