my country's first salt-cavern gas storage facility completes capacity expansion, enabling 18 million cubic meters of daily peak-shaving gas production. Today (September 21st), reporters learned from the National Pipeline Network Corporation that the Jintan Gas Storage, my country's first salt-cavern gas storage facility, has completed a capacity expansion, achieving a significant improvement in operational efficiency and significantly increasing injection and production throughput. This expansion is of great significance for improving regional natural gas peak-shaving and emergency supply. Located in the core region of the Yangtze River Delta, the Jintan Gas Storage facility is a key "granary" for regional energy security. This expansion increases the facility's daily injection capacity from 8.2 million cubic meters to 13.2 million cubic meters, a 60% increase; its daily peak-shaving gas production capacity also triples from 6 million cubic meters to 18 million cubic meters.

[Major cobalt producers have suspended quotations, and some have stopped production] ⑴ The countdown to the Congo (Kinshasa) cobalt export ban has begun. Most major cobalt intermediate product producers have suspended quotations, and some have stopped production due to factors such as raw material shortages. ⑵ If the Congo (Kinshasa) cobalt export ban is extended, it is expected that cobalt prices will rise sharply in the short term, which will have a significant impact on the industrial chain. ⑶ Luoyang Molybdenum Co., Ltd. stated that it will take into account local policies and properly arrange resource release to maximize the value of cobalt; Hanrui Cobalt Co., Ltd. will adopt a method of controlling orders to control the sales rhythm. ⑷ Currently, the cobalt raw material inventory of most domestic manufacturers is expected to last until around the end of the year, but there is great uncertainty about subsequent supply.

[New Graphene Breakthrough Ignites Capital Market! Financing Investors Aggress on Three Undervalued Concept Stocks] ⑴ Scientists at Monash University in Australia have developed a new, highly curved graphene structure that combines high power and energy density, enabling the manufacture of high-performance supercapacitors. ⑵ This breakthrough lays the foundation for electrified transportation, grid stability, and next-generation consumer electronics. The findings were published in Nature Communications. ⑶ Over 70 graphene-related concept stocks are listed on the A-share market. As of the close of trading on September 19th, their combined A-share market capitalization reached nearly 980 billion yuan. ⑷ Three concept stocks have doubled in value this year: Jinghua New Materials, Yongan Pharmaceutical, and Stick. ⑸ In terms of valuation, as of the close of trading on September 19th, 17 graphene concept stocks had rolling P/E ratios below 40 times, including Xinjiang Zhonghe, Chint Electric, and Liugong, all with rolling P/E ratios below 15 times. ⑹ Among the above-mentioned 17 low P/E concept stocks, three of them have had a net financing purchase amount of more than 100 million yuan since September, namely Zhongke Electric, GEM and Chint Electric.
