1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The suspension of reciprocal tariffs enhances the risk appetite of A-shares. The appreciation of the RMB attracts foreign capital inflows, and global financial asset reallocation is favorable for A-shares. The market is waiting for new positive forces to break the current large-scale horizontal consolidation situation [14][63]. - The decline in deposit rates, the large-scale issuance of free cash flow ETFs, and the appreciation of the RMB are beneficial for the value style. The suspension of reciprocal tariffs boosts risk appetite, which is conducive to the growth style. The market is expected to continue its structural trend [65]. 3. Summary According to Related Catalogs Market Viewpoints - On May 12, China and the US reached an agreement to significantly reduce reciprocal tariffs, which is beneficial for domestic exports. As of the end of April 2025, the total net asset value of public funds was 33.12 trillion yuan, an increase of 89.85 billion yuan compared to the end of March. Since the beginning of 2025, Asian currencies and the euro have mostly appreciated by 5% - 10% against the US dollar, while the RMB has risen by less than 2% from the beginning of the year to early May. The appreciation of the RMB has attracted over 150 billion yuan in cumulative net inflows of northbound funds, a significant increase compared to the same period last year. These foreign funds prefer blue-chip stocks with stable performance and high dividend yields, strengthening the value investment style [14]. - The huge losses in Asian life insurance have exposed the systematic risks of maturity mismatches in US dollar assets. A "big retreat" of up to $7.5 trillion from US assets has just begun. Goldman Sachs strategists believe that the Chinese stock market is expected to benefit from improved corporate profit prospects and increased foreign capital inflows. On May 28, the US Trade Court suspended reciprocal tariffs, which is conducive to enhancing the risk appetite of A-shares. The major indices of the two markets are still repairing their daily technical indicators, waiting for new positive forces [14]. Trading Strategies - **Futures Direction Trading**: The suspension of reciprocal tariffs by the US Trade Court, the continuous inflow of foreign capital attracted by the RMB appreciation, and the reallocation of global financial assets are all favorable for A-shares. The market is waiting for new positive forces to break the current large-scale horizontal consolidation [15]. - **Options Trading**: Since the market is still in a large-scale horizontal consolidation phase, it is recommended to postpone the purchase of deep out-of-the-money call options on stock indices [15]. Macroeconomic Data - In April, China's export volume was $315.6 billion, a year-on-year increase of 8.2%, far exceeding expectations. The monthly value of social consumer goods retail in April was 3.30 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 5.1%. The monthly value of manufacturing fixed asset investment in April was 2.39 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 8.2%. The monthly value of infrastructure investment in April was 2.08 trillion yuan, with a year-on-year growth rate of 9.6% [24][27][29]. - In April, the cumulative year-on-year growth rate of industrial added value was 6.4%, and the month-on-month growth rate was 0.22%. The solar power generation in April was 44.7 billion kWh, a year-on-year increase of 42.5%. The export volume of electric vehicles in April was 308,000 units, a record high, with a year-on-year increase of 37.5%. The output of industrial robots in April was 71,500 units, a historical high, with a year-on-year increase of 42% [33][35][37]. - In April, the output of integrated circuits was 41.6 billion pieces, still at a historical high. In April, the year-on-year growth rate of retail and food sales in the US was 5.2%, indicating high consumption levels. In March, the US commodity import volume was $346.7 billion, a record high, with a year-on-year increase of 32.2% [41][43][45]. - In March, the US consumer goods import volume reached $103.1 billion, a new historical high, with a year-on-year growth rate of 55.9%, reflecting strong consumer demand and large-scale inventory replenishment by retailers. In March, the US intermediate goods import volume was $75.5 billion, still at a high level, with a year-on-year growth rate of 39.4%, indicating that US manufacturers are hoarding intermediate goods due to tariff issues [47][49]. - In March, the US capital goods import volume was $93 billion, a new historical high, with a year-on-year growth rate of 22.5%, indicating an acceleration of the return of US manufacturing and the "re - industrialization" process in the US. In March, the US merchandise trade deficit was $163.5 billion, a new historical record, with a year-on-year growth rate of 74.8% [51][54]. - In March, the number of job openings in the US was 7.19 million, and the voluntary resignation rate rose to 2.1%, indicating a tightening labor market in the US. In March, the inventory growth rates of US wholesalers and manufacturers continued the trend of active inventory replenishment [56][59]. Strategy Recommendations - Wait for positive forces to break the current horizontal consolidation situation, as the suspension of reciprocal tariffs by the US Trade Court, the appreciation of the RMB attracting continuous foreign capital inflows, and the reallocation of global financial assets are all favorable for A-shares [63]. - Postpone the recommendation of far - month deep out-of-the-money call options on stock indices while the market is in the horizontal consolidation phase of a large platform, and wait for the market to break through upwards [67].

Currently, Zhengzhou sugar is at the lower edge of the volatile range, and short - term trading information is limited. Attention should be paid to Brazilian and domestic data [1] - After the Dragon Boat Festival stocking atmosphere fades, the red date market's trading enthusiasm declines. The downstream consumption will enter the off - season, and the inventory pressure will suppress the price. Focus on the growth of jujube trees in the main producing areas [3] - Natural rubber is affected by high inventory and increasing raw material supply, with limited upward drivers and likely to be in low - level volatility. Synthetic rubber lacks obvious positive factors and may run weakly due to falling raw material prices [4] Group 3: Summary by Variety Sugar - **Market Review**: SR509 closed at 5835 yuan/ton yesterday with a daily increase of 0.03%, and SR601 closed at 5699 yuan/ton with a daily increase of 0.11% [1] - **Important Information**: Global sugar production in the 2025/26 season is expected to increase by 8.6 million tons to 189.3 million tons.

Zhengzhou sugar weakened at night after a small rebound. It is at the lower edge of the volatile range, and there may be new downward impetus [1] - **Trading Strategy**: For SR509, pay attention to the support at 5800 today. If the support is effective, short - term investors can try intraday long positions [1] Red Dates - **Market Review**: CJ509 closed at 9000 yuan/ton yesterday with a daily increase of 0.22%, and CJ601 closed at 9920 yuan/ton with a daily increase of 0.10% [3] - **Important Information**: The physical inventory of 36 sample points last week increased by 0.76% week - on - week and 67.60% year - on - year. Market prices in different regions were stable over the weekend [3] - **Market Logic**: The main red date contract traded sideways. After the stocking for the Dragon Boat Festival, the market's trading enthusiasm declined. The inventory pressure will suppress the price [3] - **Trading Strategy**: Pay attention to the support at 8950. If it is broken, look for support in the 8800 - 8850 range. It is recommended to short on rallies and consider 9 - 1 reverse arbitrage [3] Rubber Series - **Market Review**: RU2509 closed at 14400 yuan/ton yesterday with a daily decrease of 0.93%, NR2507 closed at 12645 yuan/ton with a daily increase of 0.16%, and BR2507 closed at 11545 yuan/ton with a daily decrease of 1.74% [4] - **Important Information**: Thai raw material prices, domestic rubber prices, tire enterprise capacity utilization rates, and Qingdao's rubber inventory data are provided [4] - **Market Logic**: Natural rubber continued to be volatile and weak with resistance to decline.

Core View of the Report - Short - term sharp drops in the stock market on Friday afternoon do not affect the long - term bullish outlook for the four major indices. The reduction of the 1 - year deposit rate below 1% is expected to drive the transfer of household savings and insurance funds to the stock market. The market style is likely to shift to the cyclical value style represented by the Shanghai 50 Index. The inflow of foreign capital in the next few quarters will be the main trading logic, and the market expects free - cash - flow and dividend - related ETFs to benefit the most [2]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Market Review - On Friday afternoon around 2 pm, the main indices of the two markets weakened suddenly, with a small intraday decline. The trading volume of the two markets was 1.15 trillion yuan, showing little change. The Shanghai 50 Index closed at 2711 points, down 21 points or - 0.80%; the CSI 300 Index closed at 3882 points, down 31 points or - 0.81%; the CSI 500 Index closed at 5653 points, down 50 points or - 0.88%; the CSI 1000 Index closed at 5989 points, down 76 points or - 1.26%. Among industry and theme ETFs, those with the highest gains were Auto ETF, Gold Stocks ETF, etc., and those with the highest losses were Fintech ETF, Gaming ETF, etc. Among the sector indices of the two markets, the top - rising ones were Controllable Nuclear Fusion, Passenger Vehicles, etc., and the top - falling ones were Industrial Internet, Sora Concept, etc. The futures of the Shanghai 50, CSI 300, CSI 500, and CSI 1000 indices saw net inflows of 12, 44, 16, and 2 billion yuan respectively [1]. Important Information - The CSRC stated that it will support high - quality unprofitable technology companies to list and promote the implementation of new cases under the fifth listing standard of the Science and Technology Innovation Board, and support high - quality red - chip technology companies to return to the domestic market [1]. - The central bank conducted a 5000 - billion - yuan MLF operation on May 23, with a net injection of 3750 billion yuan after deducting the 1250 - billion - yuan maturity [1]. - The China Association of Automobile Manufacturers summarized the experience of anti - "malicious involution" work, and self - discipline has become a key word in the automotive industry [1]. - The Shanghai Futures Exchange plans to improve the product system suitable for new productive forces and promote the R & D and listing of products such as cast aluminum alloy, and improve the institutional mechanism [1]. - Shipping companies such as CMA CGM and MSC plan to add a peak - season surcharge of up to $2000 per 40 - foot container from June 1, with a 156% increase in freight rates in two weeks [1]. - Huatai Securities believes that after the Hong Kong Stock Exchange reform in 2018, liquidity has improved significantly, and consumer and technology sectors account for half of the Hong Kong stock market [1]. - Some European Central Bank officials believe that the April interest - rate cut was an "advance" of the June cut, with a 90% probability of a cut next month and another cut expected this year [2]. - The US existing - home market in April was unexpectedly cold, with a 0.5% month - on - month decline in sales volume and an annualized sales volume of only 4 million units, the worst April since 2009 [2]. - Driven by new orders, the preliminary value of the US Markit Manufacturing PMI in May was 52.3, a three - month high, and the preliminary value of the Services PMI was 52.3, a two - month high [2]. - Fed Governor Christopher Waller said that if the Trump administration maintains tariffs at about 10%, the Fed may start cutting interest rates in the second half of 2025 [2]. - US President Trump plans to impose a 50% tariff on EU - imported goods starting from June 1 [2]. Market Logic - The short - term sharp drop in the stock market on Friday afternoon is not a concern. The central bank's MLF net injection and the CSRC's support for technology companies' listing, along with the 1 - year deposit rate falling below 1%, are expected to drive funds into the stock market [2]. Future Outlook - The short - term sharp drop on Friday afternoon does not affect the long - term bullish outlook for the four major indices. The decline of the 1 - year deposit rate is expected to drive funds into the stock market, and foreign capital inflow will be the main trading logic. The market style is expected to shift to the cyclical value style, and the market is expected to be dominated by the Shanghai 50 Index [2]. Trading Strategy - In stock index futures directional trading, the 1 - year deposit rate falling below 1% is expected to drive funds into the stock market, and the market style may shift to the cyclical value style. The short - term sharp drop on Friday does not affect the long - term bullish outlook for the four major indices [2]. - In stock index option trading, as the market is in a consolidation period, it is recommended to suspend the purchase of far - month deep - out - of - the - money call options [2].

Report Summary 1) Report Industry Investment Rating No investment rating is provided in the report. 2) Core Viewpoints - Short - term natural rubber is in a dilemma with no strong unilateral driver to break the trading range. It may still trade at low levels, and there is unlikely to be a smooth unilateral market. [2][17] - In the medium - to - long - term, there are increasing uncertainties affecting the market, including the supply data after June, the implementation of the EUDR Act, the macro - environment, weather conditions, and the result of the EU anti - dumping investigation. It is recommended to adopt a wait - and - see or short - term trading approach. [17] 3) Summary by Directory Upstream raw material prices are firm, and subsequent supply will gradually increase - Global natural rubber main producing areas have ended the dry season and entered the transition period, with raw material supply gradually recovering but not surging. Thailand postponed the rubber tapping season to June. [3] - As of May 22, Thai raw material prices are at a relatively high level in the past five years, and domestic prices are also on the high side. [3] Slow rubber inventory reduction and poor tire product sales - As of May 18, China's natural rubber social inventory was 134.2 million tons, with a week - on - week decrease of 1.3 million tons (0.96%). Qingdao's inventory also decreased, but the overall inventory reduction is slow. [5] - China's auto production and sales in the first four months reached record highs, but it did not significantly improve tire product sales. As of May 22, the capacity utilization rates of full - steel and semi - steel tire sample enterprises showed a mixed trend, and tire product inventory is slightly increasing. [9] Monitor the increase in zero - tariff imported rubber - In April 2025, China's natural rubber exports increased, and imports decreased compared with the previous month but increased year - on - year. [12] - Since December 1, 2024, China has implemented a zero - tariff policy for natural rubber imported from Laos, Myanmar, and Cambodia. The import volume in the first quarter increased significantly, slowing down the inventory reduction in Yunnan. [14] Summary and outlook - After a sharp decline in early April, natural rubber prices have been consolidating for over a month. Although some positive factors have pushed up the price center, high inventory and weak demand prevent effective breakthroughs. [15][17]
