Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the current state and future outlook of the phosphate industry in China, highlighting the challenges faced by the ammonium phosphate sector due to regulatory changes and market dynamics, while also noting the potential for export opportunities in the second half of 2025 [2][3][4][7]. Group 1: Industry Overview - As of July 18, 2025, the Chinese government plans to implement a new round of growth stabilization measures for key industries, including steel and non-ferrous metals, which may indirectly impact the phosphate sector [2]. - Since 2022, stricter export policies for ammonium phosphate have led to a significant decline in production and operating rates, with the operating rate for monoammonium phosphate dropping to 56.3% in 2022, and remaining below 60% in 2023 and beyond [3][4]. Group 2: Profitability and Market Dynamics - The profitability of ammonium phosphate has been under pressure due to high raw material costs and subdued export demand, with average gross profits for monoammonium phosphate and diammonium phosphate reported at -58.7 CNY/ton and -128.9 CNY/ton respectively in the first half of 2025 [4][5]. - Leading companies in the phosphate sector have managed to maintain profitability by securing upstream resources, while those lacking such integration face significant financial challenges [5].

Core Viewpoint - The divergence between medium to long-term bond yields and short-term bill rates reflects the current credit supply and demand dynamics, with recent declines in bill rates indicating a stronger influence from credit attributes rather than funding factors [3][4][5].
