• China's seasonal consumption rebound enhances the commodity attribute of metals.
• The Fed's potential rate cuts activate financial attributes of metals, improving market sentiment.
• Market conditions underpin demand: copper and aluminum benefit from strong fundamentals, while supply constraints limit growth.
