Report Summary 1. Investment Rating No investment rating information is provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoint On July 15, industrial silicon and polysilicon both showed a volatile and upward - trending pattern. The main contract of industrial silicon 2509 closed at 8785 yuan/ton, with an intraday increase of 2.81%, and its position decreased by 6237 lots to 4397000 lots. The reference price of Baichuan industrial silicon spot was 9111 yuan/ton, an increase of 173 yuan/ton from the previous trading day. The price of the lowest deliverable 421 rose to 8500 yuan/ton, and the spot shifted from premium to discount of 60 yuan/ton. The main contract of polysilicon 2508 closed at 42470 yuan/ton, with an intraday increase of 2.78%, and its position decreased by 6237 lots to 69821 lots. The price of N - type recycled polysilicon material rose to 44550 yuan/ton, and the price of the lowest deliverable silicon material rose to 43500 yuan/ton. The spot premium over the main contract narrowed to 1030 yuan/ton. Market news indicated that Xinjiang might cancel the subsidized electricity price and large - scale plants' shut - down capacities would not restart, leading to continuous price recovery of industrial silicon due to cost increase. However, there were many disagreements in the market, with limited overall transmission and high difficulty in continuous upward surges. It was advisable to continue short - selling at the upper limit of the range. Guided by policies, the confidence of the photovoltaic industry chain in price support increased, but the terminal demand had not improved, and market transactions were almost at a standstill. Futures followed the spot price and were more driven by speculative demand. In the short term, there were a lot of true and false news in the market, with increased volatility of the disk and higher risks of chasing up [2]. 3.

Core Viewpoints of the Report - Crude oil prices are affected by factors such as tariff policies and inventory changes, and are expected to continue oscillating [1]. - The fuel oil market is mainly driven by the cost - end crude oil, with the LU - FU spread reaching a high level this year, and attention should be paid to the short - selling opportunity [2]. - The asphalt market is affected by supply and demand factors and follows the cost - end crude oil for narrow - range fluctuations [2]. - The polyester market is under pressure due to factors such as weak terminal demand and inventory accumulation [4]. - The rubber market is affected by export volume and production, and is expected to oscillate weakly [4]. - The methanol market is expected to return to an oscillating trend due to factors such as device load and downstream profit [5]. - The polyolefin market has limited supply changes, and demand is at the bottom, with prices expected to fluctuate within a narrow range [5]. - The PVC market has limited fundamental changes, and the upward rebound space is not large [5][6]. 3. Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Research Views - **Crude oil**: On Tuesday, oil prices fell again. API data showed an increase in US crude oil and refined product inventories. Trump's tariff measures may suppress oil prices. However, domestic energy production and processing have positive trends, and oil prices are expected to oscillate [1]. - **Fuel oil**: The main contracts of high - and low - sulfur fuel oil fell. The market structure of low - sulfur fuel oil weakened slightly, and the high - sulfur fuel oil market remained stable. It is expected to follow the cost - end crude oil for oscillation, and attention can be paid to the short - selling opportunity of the LU - FU spread [2]. - **Asphalt**: The main asphalt contract fell slightly. The adjustment of the fuel oil and diluted asphalt consumption tax deduction policy has not yet shown an impact. Supply has decreased, and demand has support. It is expected to follow the cost - end crude oil for narrow - range fluctuations [2]. - **Polyester**: The prices of PTA, EG, and PX futures fell. The downstream demand is weak, the inventory of polyester factories is increasing, and the prices of polyester products are under pressure [2][4]. - **Rubber**: The prices of some rubber varieties fluctuated. The rubber export volume in Cote d'Ivoire increased in the first half of 2025, and the rubber price is expected to oscillate weakly [4]. - **Methanol**: The price of methanol is affected by factors such as device load and downstream profit, and is expected to return to an oscillating trend [5]. - **Polyolefin**: The prices of polyolefin products are affected by supply and demand. Supply changes are limited, demand is at the bottom, and prices are expected to fluctuate within a narrow range [5]. - **Polyvinyl chloride**: The PVC market price has a narrow - range adjustment. Although demand has not improved significantly, the fundamentals have not deteriorated further, and the upward rebound space is limited [5][6]. 3.2 Daily Data Monitoring - The report provides the basis data of various energy and chemical products on July 16, 2025, including spot prices, futures prices, basis, basis rates, and their changes, as well as the percentile of the latest basis rate in historical data [7]. 3.3 Market News - Trump plans to impose a 30% tariff on most imported goods from the EU and Mexico starting from August 1, which may suppress global fuel demand and oil prices [1][9]. - API data shows that as of the week of July 11, US API crude oil and refined product inventories increased [1][9]. 3.4 Chart Analysis - **4.1 Main Contract Prices**: The report presents the closing price charts of the main contracts of various energy and chemical products from 2021 to 2025, including crude oil, fuel oil, asphalt, LPG, PTA, etc. [11][13][15] - **4.2 Main Contract Basis**: It includes the basis charts of various products such as crude oil, fuel oil, asphalt, etc., showing the basis changes over time [29][33][37] - **4.3 Inter - period Contract Spreads**: It shows the spread charts of different contracts of fuel oil, asphalt, PTA, etc., reflecting the price differences between different contract periods [44][46][49] - **4.4 Inter - product Spreads**: It includes the spread and ratio charts between different products, such as the spread between crude oil internal and external markets, the spread between high - and low - sulfur fuel oil, etc. [61][63][65] - **4.5 Production Profits**: It presents the cash - flow chart of ethylene - based ethylene glycol production and the production profit chart of PP, etc. [70]

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report - **Copper**: Overnight LME copper first declined and then rose, falling 0.2% to $9,643.5 per ton; SHFE copper main contract fell 0.34%. The market is worried about the intensification of trade conflicts. Trump's threat to impose a 50% tariff on copper from August 1st has caused market discussions. From the price difference between US copper and LME copper, the market has priced in 25%. In the short - term, copper may still be weak, and the implementation of the 50% copper tariff will cause strong price fluctuations [1]. - **Aluminum**: Alumina fluctuated strongly, while Shanghai aluminum fluctuated weakly. Guinea's implementation of the bauxite index has raised concerns about cost expansion. In the short - term, the near - month contracts will continue to be strong, and it is recommended to buy low and sell high in the 20,000 range. The off - season effect of aluminum alloy is more obvious [1][2]. - **Nickel**: Overnight LME nickel fell 1.12%, and Shanghai nickel fell 1.08%. The Indonesian government will evaluate the work plans and budgets of the mining and coal industries. The cost support of stainless steel has shifted down slightly, and the overall inventory remains high. The demand for nickel sulfate in July has increased slightly month - on - month. In the short - term, it will still fluctuate, and be vigilant against overseas policy disturbances [2]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1 Research Views - **Copper**: Macroscopically, overseas focuses on tariffs, and some economies have made counter - measures. Domestically, China's June social financing and export data are positive. In terms of inventory, LME, Comex, and domestic social inventories have all increased. The demand is still weak due to the off - season. The 50% copper tariff may cause price fluctuations [1]. - **Aluminum**: Alumina prices rose, while Shanghai aluminum prices were weak. The implementation of the bauxite index in Guinea and the low inventory support the price. The off - season effect of aluminum alloy is obvious [1][2]. - **Nickel**: LME and SHFE nickel prices fell. The Indonesian government's evaluation of the industry and the decline in nickel ore prices have an impact on the market. The cost of stainless steel has decreased, and the demand for nickel sulfate has increased slightly [2]. 3.2 Daily Data Monitoring - **Copper**: The price of flat - water copper decreased, and the inventory of LME, COMEX, and social inventory increased. The import loss of the active contract widened [3]. - **Lead**: The average price of 1 lead decreased, and the inventory of LME and SHFE increased [3]. - **Aluminum**: The prices of Wuxi and Nanhai aluminum decreased, and the inventory of LME, SHFE, and social inventory of alumina increased [4]. - **Nickel**: The price of Jinchuan nickel decreased, and the inventory of LME, SHFE, and social inventory increased [4]. - **Zinc**: The main settlement price and spot price decreased, and the inventory of LME, SHFE, and social inventory increased [5]. - **Tin**: The main settlement price increased slightly, and the inventory of LME increased while SHFE decreased [5]. 3.3 Chart Analysis - **Spot Premium**: Charts show the spot premium trends of copper, aluminum, nickel, zinc, lead, and tin from 2019 - 2025 [7][9][11]. - **SHFE Near - Far Month Spread**: Charts display the near - far month spread trends of copper, aluminum, nickel, zinc, lead, and tin from 2020 - 2025 [15][18][21]. - **LME Inventory**: Charts present the LME inventory trends of copper, aluminum, nickel, zinc, lead, and tin from 2019 - 2025 [24][26][28]. - **SHFE Inventory**: Charts show the SHFE inventory trends of copper, aluminum, nickel, zinc, lead, and tin from 2019 - 2025 [31][33][35]. - **Social Inventory**: Charts display the social inventory trends of copper, aluminum, nickel, zinc, stainless steel, and 300 - series from 2019 - 2025 [37][39][41]. - **Smelting Profit**: Charts present the trends of copper concentrate index, rough copper processing fee, aluminum smelting profit, nickel - iron smelting cost, zinc smelting profit, and stainless steel 304 smelting profit rate from 2019 - 2025 [44][46][48]. 3.4 Team Introduction - **Zhan Dapeng**: A master of science, the director of non - ferrous research at Everbright Futures Research Institute, with more than a decade of commodity research experience [51]. - **Wang Heng**: A master of finance from the University of Adelaide, Australia, an analyst focusing on aluminum and silicon [50][51]. - **Zhu Xi**: A master of science from the University of Warwick, UK, an analyst focusing on lithium and nickel [52].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - Corn: The September contract of corn showed an increase in positions and an upward trend on Monday, with the futures price closing as a doji with a long lower shadow. After the main contract broke through the support level last week and the futures price dropped rapidly, it was significantly at a discount to the spot price. This situation attracted buying on Monday, driving the futures price to rebound. However, the spot price of corn in the Northeast and North China continued to decline over the weekend, and the market supply was relatively loose. Technically, it is recommended to pay attention to the price pressure in the previous intensive trading area of 2320 - 2330 for the September contract, and consider short - selling after the rebound ends [1]. - Soybean Meal: CBOT soybean meal and soybeans closed lower on Monday as the market expected good growth of US soybeans. The good - to - excellent rate of US soybeans increased to 70%, 4 percentage points higher than last week, and higher than the market expectation of 67% and 68% in the same period last year. The market expects the US soybean crush volume in June to drop to a four - month low of 185.195 million bushels, a 4% month - on - month decrease. Domestically, the protein meal prices rose under the general upward trend of commodities, with rapeseed meal rising more than soybean meal. The operation idea is to maintain a long position in the 9 - 1 and 1 - 5 positive spreads of soybean meal [1]. - Palm Oil: BMD palm oil rose on Monday, following the upward trend of the surrounding markets. The weakening of the Malaysian ringgit and the international oil price reaching a three - week high provided support. Domestically, the futures price of palm oil continued to rise, and the increase in palm oil and soybean oil was better than that of rapeseed oil. The market is mainly in a volatile state, and it is recommended to conduct intraday trading on a single - side basis [1]. - Eggs: The egg futures fluctuated and adjusted on Monday. After the egg price dropped to a new low this year last week, the terminal demand increased, boosting the short - term spot price to rebound from the low level. After the price rebound, the demand became stable. In the future, after the plum - rain season ends, eggs will gradually enter the peak demand season of the year, but considering the pressure on the egg price from the supply side, the expected peak price will be lower than that of last year [1]. - Pigs: The main 2509 contract of live pigs weakened in the morning and rebounded slightly at a low level in the afternoon on Monday, finally closing down 0.42%. The downstream demand was weak, and factors such as high temperatures and school holidays led to a significant decline in the slaughter volume of slaughterhouses. The pig price is expected to remain volatile in the short term [2]. 3. Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Market Information - On July 13, the EU and Indonesia reached a political agreement on promoting the EU - Indonesia Free Trade Agreement, which is regarded as an effort by the EU to find a new balance in the global trade pattern [3]. - India's palm oil imports in June increased by 60% month - on - month to 955,683 tons, soybean oil imports decreased by 9.8% to 359,504 tons, and sunflower oil imports increased by 17.8% to 216,141 tons. The total vegetable oil imports in June were 1,549,825 tons, a 30.6% increase from May [3]. - Analysts expect the US soybean crush volume in June to drop to a four - month low of 185.195 million bushels, and the soybean oil inventory of NOPA members is expected to be 1.374 billion pounds [3]. - In the first half of this year, the decline in the import prices of crude oil, iron ore, and soybeans in China pulled down the overall import growth rate by 2.7 percentage points [4]. - The Chinese and US teams are accelerating the implementation of the results of the London framework, and China hopes that the US will continue to cooperate with China to promote the global trade system to return to fairness and openness [4]. 3.2 Variety Spreads - Contract spreads: The report provides charts of the 9 - 1 spreads of corn, corn starch, soybeans, soybean meal, soybean oil, palm oil, eggs, and live pigs, but no specific analysis of the spreads is given [5][6][8] - Contract basis: The report provides charts of the basis of corn, corn starch, soybeans, soybean meal, soybean oil, palm oil, eggs, and live pigs, but no specific analysis of the basis is given [13][14][20]

Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided Core Viewpoints of the Report - On July 14, 2025, the 2509 contract of lithium carbonate futures rose 3.71% to 66,480 yuan/ton. The average price of battery-grade lithium carbonate increased by 900 yuan/ton to 64,650 yuan/ton, and the average price of industrial-grade lithium carbonate also rose 900 yuan/ton to 63,050 yuan/ton. The price of battery-grade lithium hydroxide (coarse particles) remained at 57,420 yuan/ton. The warehouse receipt inventory decreased by 399 tons to 11,204 tons [3]. - Affected by the news from Yichun Natural Resources Bureau, market sentiment was influenced. In July, the production of lithium carbonate is expected to increase by 3.9% month-on-month to 81,150 tons, and the weekly production increased by 690 tons to 18,813 tons. The increase is mainly from lithium extraction from spodumene, followed by lithium extraction from mica. The exports of lithium salts from Chile were basically flat from May to June, and the overall imports of lithium carbonate in July are expected to change little month-on-month. In terms of demand, the production schedule in July increased slightly month-on-month, and the consumption of lithium carbonate by the two major main materials increased by 3% month-on-month to about 80,800 tons. The weekly inventory increased by 2,446 tons to 140,793 tons, with a significant increase in the intermediate links [3]. - The news hype affects market sentiment, the warehouse receipts remain at a low level, the transaction price of lithium ore has increased, lithium salt plants have announced shutdowns for maintenance and technological transformation, and there are many disturbances in the market news, which stimulate the price to rise in the short term. However, hedging pressure will follow. As of now, there are no signs of production cuts at the mine end, and the social inventory of lithium ore and lithium salt is relatively high. Attention can still be paid to short-selling opportunities after the sentiment turns.

Group 1 - The investment rating of the industry is not mentioned in the report. - The core view of the report is that on July 14, the industrial silicon futures contract 2509 closed at 8,695 yuan/ton, with an intraday increase of 3.27%, and the open interest increased by 35,078 lots to 403,000 lots. The reference price of the industrial silicon spot from Baichuan was 8,938 yuan/ton, up 57 yuan/ton from the previous trading day. The price of the lowest deliverable 421 grade silicon increased to 8,500 yuan/ton, and the spot shifted from a discount to a premium of 435 yuan/ton. The polysilicon futures contract 2508 closed at 42,090 yuan/ton, with an intraday increase of 0.81%, and the open interest decreased by 7,597 lots to 78,328 lots. The SMM price of N-type polysilicon feedstock rose to 41,500 yuan/ton, and the price of the lowest deliverable N-type polysilicon feedstock rose to 41,500 yuan/ton, with the spot shifting from a premium to a discount of 265 yuan/ton to the front-month contract. Market news indicates that Xinjiang may cancel subsidized electricity prices and major manufacturers may not resume production, causing the price of industrial silicon to continue rising due to increased costs. However, there are many market disagreements, limited overall market transmission, and high difficulty in sustaining the upward trend. The strategy of shorting at the upper end of the trading range can be continued. Guided by policies, the confidence of the photovoltaic industry chain to support prices has increased, but the terminal demand has not improved, and market transactions are almost stagnant. Futures follow the spot prices and are more driven by speculative demand. In the short term, the market is filled with true and false news, increasing the volatility of the trading volume and the risk of unilateral trading [2] Group 2 - On July 14, the industrial silicon futures settlement price for the front-month contract decreased by 400 yuan/ton, the price of the 421 grade silicon increased by 100 yuan/ton, and the spot shifted from a discount of 65 yuan/ton to a premium of 435 yuan/ton. The price of the front-month contract for polysilicon futures decreased by 5,535 yuan/ton, the price of the lowest deliverable N-type polysilicon feedstock remained unchanged at 41,500 yuan/ton, and the spot shifted from a premium of 170 yuan/ton to a discount of 265 yuan/ton. The price of dimethyl silicone oil in the organic silicon market increased by 2,000 yuan/ton, while the prices of other products remained unchanged.
