In the upcoming year of 2025, we anticipate that the global economy will face a series of complex and volatile challenges. With the conclusion of the US election, the uncertainty of global trade policies is expected to further increase, presenting new issues for international trade cooperation. In the realm of geopolitics, ongoing conflicts and tensions show no significant signs of easing, posing threats not only to global security but also significantly impacting resource allocation and industrial layout. Against this macro backdrop, industrial transfer and supply chain restructuring have become key topics that we must closely monitor. At the industrial level, the trend of protectionism in mineral resources is on the rise, directly affecting the stability of global copper concentrate TCs. With the rapid expansion of global smelting capacity, the profit margins of copper smelters are further compressed, and the challenges faced by the industry are becoming increasingly severe. In the field of secondary copper raw materials, the advancement of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) standards and the "dual carbon" goals have significantly increased market attention to secondary copper. However, the "reverse invoicing" policy implemented in 2024 and the "Fair Competition Regulations" have had a profound impact on the secondary copper industry. Looking ahead to 2025, the changes in the landscape of the secondary copper industry will have a critical impact on the entire copper industry chain. Additionally, with the cancellation of tax subsidies and other incentive measures, the space for copper cathode trade is expected to further narrow. We anticipate that the procurement ratio of copper processing materials between traders and smelters will show a more pronounced differentiation. In this context, the "CCIE 2025 SMM (20th) Copper Industry Conference and Copper Industry Expo" meticulously prepared by SMM will be grandly held in Nanchang, Jiangxi from April 22-25, 2025. Anhui Huachuang Environmental Protection Equipment Technology Co., Ltd. will make a splendid appearance at this conference. We will keep pace with the times, aim at our goals, strive diligently, and move forward with courage!
