SMM, 14 October:

Trend: Lunxi Electronics opened Friday at $16395 / tonne, up $16640 / tonne to $16380 / tonne, closing up $16640 / tonne, up $195 / tonne. 198 hands were traded throughout the day, and 18217 hands were held, an increase of 146 hands. Inventory was 6605 tons, 40 tons less than in the previous period.

Lunxi electronic plate on Friday after the opening of $16395 / ton, Asia early trading to noon during the overall maintenance of the opening price horizontal finishing. In the afternoon of the Asian plate, Lun Xi rushed up to $16445 / ton and returned to the opening price again. After the opening of the European market, at the beginning of the day fell slightly to a daily low of $16380 / ton before hitting the bottom, and then affected by Indonesia's September refined tin exports fell 41 per cent year-on-year. Lunxi overall showed a concussive upward trend, and finally closed at US $16640 / ton, showing a long Yang line, with the physical part near the May and 20-40 moving averages, supported by the 10-day moving average below, and the resistance above Lunxi is expected to be near the 60-day moving average of $16800 / ton.

Shanghai tin trend: Shanghai tin main 2001 contract opened on Friday night 136480 yuan / ton, the highest 137230 yuan / ton, the lowest 136050 yuan / ton, closed 136210 yuan / ton, up 60 yuan / ton. 14968 hands were traded, 38712 hands were held, and 156 hands were reduced.

After the opening of 136480 yuan / ton on Friday, the Shanghai tin main force 2001 contract was held up under pressure after rising to a high of 137230 yuan / ton at the beginning of the session, and quickly fell to a low of 136050 yuan / ton at night before rising slightly. Subsequently, the overall tin in Shanghai closed at 136300 yuan / ton until the end of the night, and finally closed at 136210 yuan / ton, showing a small negative line, supported by the 5-10 moving average at the bottom, and bearing pressure on the 20-day moving average. It is expected that the resistance above Shanghai tin is near the 20-day moving average of 137300 yuan / ton, and the lower support is near the 40-60 day moving average of 135000 yuan / ton.

The 26th China International Industry Fair is being held at the National Exhibition and Convention Center, where over a hundred Shanghai scientific and technological achievements are on display in the Innovation Technology Pavilion. At the Landau Suiyan booth, an EUV light source system prototype is making its debut at the fair. It is currently the most advanced domestically developed EUV light source prototype on public display, and is also known as the "heart" of high-end lithography machines. EUV light sources are one of the three core parts for manufacturing advanced process chips at 7 nm and below. They have long been subject to technology monopolies and embargoes outside China, making them a key link constraining China's ability to independently control high-end chips. On-site staff introduced that the light source system on display has achieved 90% localisation, with the vast majority of core parts independently developed through R&D. Its technical route is consistent with that of leading international producers, and it can be used for chip exposure testing. Although mass production is still 3–5 years away, this breakthrough marks a key step in moving China's EUV light source from the laboratory toward industrialisation.

[TSMC Q3 Profit Surges 69%, Beating Expectations Amid Rising AI Investment Concerns]
TSMC reported Q3 (ended September) profit that beat market expectations. Despite growing concerns over long-term AI infrastructure buildout, the world's chipmaking giant maintained its rapid growth momentum. TSMC said Q3 net profit rose 69% YoY to NT$763.1 billion ($23.6 billion), exceeding the average analyst estimate. Earlier, TSMC reported revenue for the same period jumped 51% YoY, also above market expectations, pushing Q3 revenue to $47 billion. TSMC said revenue growth has accelerated over the past two quarters, and the company has also stepped up its capacity expansion. TSMC previously said capital expenditure this year would reach a record $64 billion. Meanwhile, market expectations for TSMC's 2027 capex keep being raised, a metric seen as a key barometer for the industry's outlook. Goldman Sachs now expects TSMC's 2027 capex to reach $85 billion, while UBS projects $90 billion, both above the consensus estimate of $75 billion. TSMC is currently trying to build and equip around 20 fabs simultaneously at home and outside China, an unprecedented pace of expansion. By comparison, the company typically used to have only four to five new fab buildings under construction at the same time.
