[SMM Analysis: Looking back at H1 2026, the polysilicon market, due to prominent overcapacity issues compounded by historical inventory and other factors, although occasionally rebounding on the back of policy expectations, the overall downward "downtrend" persisted. Looking ahead to H2 2026, SMM believes that from the supply-demand or capacity side, it is difficult to see significant spontaneous improvement. Key focus areas are policy expectations and cost dynamics—cost determines the price floor, while policy determines the price trend.

SMM July 3 News: In the metals market: As of the midday close, most domestic base metals rose. SHFE copper gained 0.76%, SHFE aluminum rose 1.45%. SHFE lead advanced 0.47%. SHFE zinc edged down 0.02%. SHFE tin climbed 0.66%. SHFE nickel increased 0.59%. Additionally, the most-traded cast aluminum futures rose 1.42%, while the most-traded alumina fell 1.62%. The most-traded lithium carbonate futures rose 1.87%. The most-traded silicon metal futures gained 0.18%. The most-traded polysilicon futures edged up. Ferrous metals mostly fell. Iron ore declined 1.41%. HRC, rebar, and stainless steel all fell within 0.4%. In the coking coal and coke markets, the most-traded coking coal contract rose 1.58%, and the most-traded coke contract rose 1.89%. In overseas base metals, as of 11:46, LME metals rose across the board. LME copper gained 0.96%, LME aluminum rose 1.04%, LME lead advanced 0.8%. LME zinc increased 0.81%, LME tin climbed 2.05. LME nickel rose 1.1%. In precious metals, as of 11:46, COMEX gold rose 1.64%, and COMEX silver gained 2.76%. In domestic precious metals, SHFE gold advanced 2.67%, and the most-traded SHFE silver futures contract surged 4.05%. Strategists at OCBC Bank Group Research said in a report that gold's medium-term role as a target for asset diversification remains valid, but its price may be dragged down by a more challenging macroeconomic environment. OCBC analysts said demand for gold may be supported by the official sector, with central banks indicating they intend to increase gold reserves in the next 12 months. However, they added that investors have already priced in expectations for US Fed interest rate hikes, and the short-term macro pressure from rising real yields and a stronger US dollar is unlikely to be fully offset. OCBC expects gold prices to reach $4,360 per ounce by the end of 2026 and $4,680 per ounce by the end of Q2 2027.

(CCTV News) [PBOC's open market operations resulted in a net drain of 168.5 billion yuan on the day, and a net drain of 1,587 billion yuan for the week] The PBOC conducted 63 billion yuan of 7-day reverse repo operations today. With 231.5 billion yuan of 7-day reverse repos maturing today, this resulted in a net drain of 168.5 billion yuan for the day. For the week, the PBOC conducted 678.5 billion yuan of 7-day reverse repos and 900 billion yuan of overnight reverse repos. With 2,265.5 billion yuan of 7-day reverse repos and 900 billion yuan of overnight reverse repos maturing this week, this resulted in an aggregate net drain of 1,587 billion yuan for the week. (Jin10 Data APP) On the US dollar front: As of 11:46, the US dollar index fell 0.07% to 100.81. On Friday, the US dollar was on track for its biggest weekly loss in nearly three months, after a weaker-than-expected June payrolls report delayed market expectations for US Fed rate hikes and offered some respite to the ailing yen. A sharp slowdown in US employment growth in June prompted traders to scale back their expectations of near-term rate hikes by the US Fed, with the market now pricing in a 52% chance of a hike at the September meeting, down from 64% the previous trading day. US Treasury yields also pulled back from earlier highs, with the two-year yield snapping a three-day winning streak. OCBC currency strategist Sim Moh Siong said, "At the margin, the data is a bit dovish and helps ease concerns about an overheating labor market and the need for more aggressive policy tightening." However, he added that so long as expectations of Fed tightening remain in place, the overall outlook for the US dollar remains constructive, especially against low-yielding currencies. (Jin10 Data APP) According to CME "FedWatch": The probability of the US Fed keeping rates unchanged at the July meeting is 82.4%, and the probability of a cumulative 25-basis-point rate hike is 17.6%. For the September meeting, the probability of rates remaining unchanged is 46.8%, while the probability of a cumulative 25-basis-point rate hike is 45.6% and the probability of a cumulative 50-basis-point rate hike is 7.6%. Jin10 Data APP) CICC research report pointed out that the US added 57,000 nonfarm payrolls in June, below market expectations, indicating a cooling of the acceleration in job growth. After downward revisions to previous months, the average job gains over the past three months still reached 111,000, showing that the labour market is still expanding. Meanwhile, the unemployment rate fell to 4.2%, and the labour force participation rate continued to pull back, reflecting steady labour demand coexisting with a contraction in labour supply, with overall unemployment pressure relatively small. CICC believes that this data gives the US Fed time to wait and watch, thus maintaining the judgement that there will be neither an interest rate increase nor a cut for the rest of the year. In the medium term, the improvement in US employment this year is more attributable to the economic cycle recovery driven by AI investment, rather than short-term factors such as the World Cup. This means that if total economic demand continues to expand boosted by AI, the possibility of the US Fed resuming interest rate hikes next year cannot be ruled out. Huatai Securities research report stated that the US nonfarm payrolls in June missed expectations, mainly due to a sharp pullback in leisure and hospitality and local government employment, which had been boosted earlier by the early Memorial Day and the World Cup. By sector, both services and government saw a marked slowdown in new nonfarm jobs, while the goods sector saw a small rebound. The June nonfarm report eased market concerns about overheating risks in the US labour market. Leading indicators suggest that employment levels will be around the equilibrium level of 0‒50,000 in the coming months, maintaining the view that the US Fed will keep interest rates unchanged in H2 and may need to raise rates next year. Data: Today, France's May industrial production m/m, France's June final services PMI, Germany's June final services PMI, Eurozone June final services PMI, UK June final services PMI, and other data will be released.

The holiday schedules for overseas exchanges are as follows: (all times are Beijing time) Crude oil: As of 11:46, both benchmarks rose, with WTI up 0.52% and Brent up 0.64%. Saudi Arabia’s crude exports have surged to near pre-war levels since it resumed loading and unloading tankers in the Persian Gulf, providing further evidence that oil supplies from regional producers are recovering following the US-Iran interim peace agreement. In the six days through Wednesday, the world’s largest oil exporter shipped a daily average of 6.3 million barrels of crude, according to tanker-tracking data compiled by Bloomberg. That pace is roughly in line with the average for 2025 and nearly 90% of February’s level, when the kingdom and its Gulf neighbors ramped up supply before the Iran war broke out. (Jin10 Data APP) Citigroup said the US-Iran memorandum of understanding is expected to remain in force in the coming months and eventually be converted into a formal agreement. The incentives for de-escalating the conflict outweigh the costs of returning to confrontation. The bank reiterated its recommendation to sell into any summer rally and forecast that Brent crude will fall to $60-65 a barrel by year-end. Additionally, "gasoline prices have been a bit sticky on the way down," US Treasury Secretary Bessent said in a CBS News interview. "We’re trying to put a little pressure on the gasoline retailers. We are telling them we’re watching closely," Bessent said, "We’ve gotten positive responses from some of the big-box retailers on doing something for the consumer." Bessent hopes the average gasoline price will fall to $3 a gallon by Labor Day and said he expects oil and energy prices to continue to pull back.

Macro Front Domestic: [The mandatory national standard "Safety Requirements for Combined Driving Assistance System of Intelligent and Connected Vehicles" was officially released] On June 27, the mandatory national standard "Safety Requirements for Combined Driving Assistance System of Intelligent and Connected Vehicles" (GB 47955—2026), organized, formulated and centralized by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, was approved and released by the State Administration for Market Regulation and the National Standardization Administration, and is scheduled to be officially implemented on January 1, 2027. 《Safety Requirements for Intelligent Connected Vehicles—Combined Driver Assistance Systems, grounded in the needs of industry development and regulatory oversight in China, takes into account technical feasibility, product compatibility, and practical implementability, and establishes a safety indicator framework with clear requirements, comprehensive dimensions, and alignment with national conditions. First, it fully considers different product forms and technical routes, proposing applicable safety requirements for three types of combined driver assistance system products: basic single-lane, basic multi-lane, and navigation driver assistance. Second, based on China’s road traffic characteristics, it sets out baseline requirements to ensure the safe operation of combined driver assistance systems across dimensions such as functional requirements, data recording, and vehicle manufacturer safety assurance. Third, recognizing the core positioning of these systems as "assistance" in driving, it puts forward requirements for user usage and operation in areas such as human-machine interaction, usage instructions, and user training, providing a foundational guarantee for proper coordination between users and systems. Fourth, in line with the practical needs of China’s industry management, it builds a multi-tiered evaluation approach encompassing field tests, road tests, and document inspections to comprehensively assess system safety capabilities.

US Dollar: As of 11:39, the US dollar index fell 0.03% to 101.39. Fed Chairman Warsh said Wednesday that inflation expectations and inflation risks have both declined in recent weeks, while reiterating the Fed’s commitment to bringing inflation down to the 2% target. "In the first few weeks of this period, inflation expectations have pulled back, and inflation risks have also eased," Warsh said. "If households, the business community, or financial markets think the Fed is comfortable with inflation above 2%—well, they are likely to be disappointed: we will ensure price stability in the US." Fed Chairman Warsh sidestepped questions on whether the Fed might raise rates at its July meeting. "I hope that when we meet in four weeks, we can have a robust 'internal family debate,'" he said. "When we close the doors and sit down together, we will have a vigorous debate. But beyond that, I have no further information to share." Warsh made the remarks at the ECB’s annual policy conference in Sintra, Portugal; this was his first public appearance since his inaugural press conference at the Fed last month. Since then, investors have begun to anticipate more rate hikes from the Fed, but the market currently sees the likelihood of a first hike this month at less than 50%. According to CME "Fed Watch": The probability that the US Fed will keep rates unchanged in July is 71.7%, and the probability of a cumulative 25-basis-point rate hike is 28.3%. The probability that the Fed will keep rates unchanged by September is 36.1%, the probability of a cumulative 25-basis-point hike is 49.8%, and the probability of a cumulative 50-basis-point hike is 14.1%. (Jin10 Data APP) On the data front: US manufacturing expanded for a sixth consecutive month in June, with the war-driven surge in input costs easing. Printing, electrical equipment, and textiles led the gains, while paper products, furniture, and wood products contracted. Market attention has now shifted to Thursday's US employment report. Julien Lafargue, chief market strategist at Barclays Private Bank and Wealth Management, noted that with Warsh prioritizing inflation, the June non-farm payrolls data is "unlikely to change rate expectations on its own." He added that hiring related to the FIFA World Cup is expected to distort the data. (Wall Street Insights) Data front: Today will see the release of the US June unemployment rate, US June seasonally adjusted non-farm payrolls, US initial jobless claims for the week ended June 27, US June average hourly earnings year-over-year, US June average hourly earnings month-over-month, US May factory orders month-over-month, Switzerland June CPI month-over-month, eurozone May unemployment rate, among other data. Additionally, watch for: the Ministry of Commerce's regular press conference for the first week of July, and 2027 FOMC voting member and San Francisco Fed President Daly’s participation in a conference on the Spanish economy. Due to the US Independence Day holiday (July 3), the US June non-farm payrolls data will be released earlier on July 2 (Thursday) at 20:30 Beijing time.

(Wall Street Insights) As supply through the Strait of Hormuz rebounded, OCBC Group Research lowered its quarterly crude oil forecasts through the end of Q2 2027. Two OCBC strategists noted in a research report: "With the signing of a memorandum of understanding between the US and Iran, shipping and crude oil supply through the Strait of Hormuz have rebounded."They also said, "Market expectations that crude oil supply would return to normal quickly pushed oil prices back to pre-conflict levels, rekindling oversupply rhetoric." OCBC cut its Brent crude price forecast for Q3 2026 from $85 to $75 per barrel, Q4 2026 from $80 to $75, Q1 2027 from $75 to $73, and Q2 2027 from $75 to $71. (Jin10 Data APP) Increasing energy flows through the Strait of Hormuz prompted UBS to cut its 2026-2027 oil price forecast. UBS now expects Brent crude to average $84 per barrel this year, down $9 from its previous forecast. The bank also cut its 2027 oil price forecast from $85 to $75 per barrel. UBS said, "The decline in geopolitical risk and the rapid rebound in supply led to a larger price drop than we had expected." The bank expects oil prices to rebound slightly to $80 per barrel in H2 this year as floating storage in the Gulf region normalizes and demand recovers. UBS also believes risk premiums will be higher because the path to normalization may remain bumpy. UBS said, "The need to replenish inventories should continue to support prices through the end of 2027, but the required magnitude of stock rebuilding is smaller than the 1 billion barrels we previously expected."

The reporter learned from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology that today, July 2, three mandatory national standards in the PV sector were officially approved and released. These standards set rigid constraints on energy consumption and energy efficiency across the entire chain of polysilicon, wafers, PV modules, and inverters, using standardized measures to refine the green management and control system of the PV industry chain, and providing institutional support for the high-quality development of the new energy industry. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, together with the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) and the State Administration for Market Regulation, released three mandatory national standards on PV energy consumption and efficiency: "Energy Consumption Limit per Unit Product of Monocrystalline Silicon", "Energy Efficiency Limits and Energy Efficiency Grades for Crystalline Silicon PV Modules and Inverters", and "Energy Consumption Limit per Unit Product of Polysilicon and Germanium". These standards cover key segments of the PV industry chain including polysilicon, wafers, modules, and inverters, set energy consumption and energy efficiency indicators for relevant products by grade, and strictly control high-energy-consumption and low-efficiency capacity in each link; for modules, they innovatively incorporate the evaluation indicator of coupled environmental stress-induced degradation rate.

(Jin10 Data APP) US dollar aspect: As of 11:36, the US dollar index rose 0.16% to 101.33. Fed’s Hammack said: The labour market is near full employment, with good growth prospects. Inflation remains too high, and the Fed may need to consider rate hikes. Jason Pride, Chief of Investment Strategy at private wealth management and investment firm Glenmede, and Michael Reynolds, Vice President of Investment Strategy, said investors should expect the US June unemployment rate to remain unchanged at 4.3%, with non-farm payrolls increasing by about 87,000. While this represents a pullback from May’s 172,000, in the current labour market environment of “low hiring, low layoffs,” it still counts as a solid outcome. Although employment fundamentals remain largely intact, the Fed’s focus has shifted to inflation, meaning that the timing of any future easing measures will depend more on inflation pressures than on job growth itself. According to CME’s “FedWatch”: The probability of the Fed keeping rates unchanged in July is 66.3%, and the chance of a cumulative 25bp rate hike is 33.7%. For September, the probability of the Fed keeping rates unchanged is 33.1%, the chance of a cumulative 25bp hike is 50.0%, and the chance of a cumulative 50bp hike is 16.9%.
