Report Industry Investment Ratings - Glass: Oscillating weakly [2] - Soda Ash: Oscillating [2] - Silicomanganese: Oscillating [4] - Ferrosilicon: Oscillating [4] Core Views - The glass industry is in a stage of oversupply, and it is necessary to reduce prices, compress profits, and cut production to ease industry contradictions. Suggest paying attention to short - selling opportunities on rallies and subsequent changes in production lines on the supply side [1]. - The supply - demand contradiction of soda ash remains prominent, with increasing supply pressure and relatively stable demand. There is a large pressure for inventory reduction, and attention should be paid to changes in soda ash supply and downstream demand [1]. - The losses of silicomanganese enterprises are intensifying, and both production and operating rates have declined. The demand from downstream maintains resilience, and the price is expected to fluctuate with the sector. Future attention should be paid to changes in manganese ore cost support and regional policies [3]. - With the continuous compression of steel mill profits, the motivation for ferrosilicon production increase is insufficient. The downstream demand maintains resilience, the industry's supply - demand contradiction is not prominent, and the price is expected to fluctuate with the sector. Follow - up attention should be paid to cost support, electricity price changes, and industrial policies [3]. Market Analysis Glass and Soda Ash - **Glass**: The glass futures market oscillated narrowly. Downstream procurement was cautious, mainly for rigid demand. This week, the operating rate of float glass enterprises was 76.35%, a 0.35% increase from the previous week, and the manufacturer's inventory was 64.276 million heavy boxes, a 2.39% increase from the previous week, showing obvious inventory accumulation [1]. - **Soda Ash**: The soda ash futures market oscillated. Downstream procurement was mainly for rigid replenishment. This week, the soda ash output was 740,500 tons, a 3.93% decrease from the previous week, and the inventory slightly increased to 1.7005 million tons [1]. Double Silicon - **Silicomanganese**: The main contract of silicomanganese futures first rose and then fell, closing at 5,754 yuan/ton, a 0.14% increase from the previous day. The final pricing of mainstream steel tenders was still under negotiation. The price in the northern market was 5,630 - 5,680 yuan/ton, and in the southern market was 5,650 - 5,700 yuan/ton [3]. - **Ferrosilicon**: The main contract of ferrosilicon futures oscillated upward, closing at 5,456 yuan/ton, a 1.94% increase from the previous day. The market sentiment was average, waiting for the standard set by Hebei Iron and Steel to guide the market. The ex - factory price of 72 - grade ferrosilicon natural lumps in the main production areas was 5,100 - 5,200 yuan/ton, and the price of 75 - grade ferrosilicon was 5,800 - 6,100 yuan/ton [3]. Strategies - **Glass**: Oscillating weakly [2] - **Soda Ash**: Oscillating [2] - **Silicomanganese**: Oscillating [4] - **Ferrosilicon**: Oscillating [4] - **Inter - period**: None [2] - **Inter - variety**: None [2]

Hua Tai Qi Huo· 2025-10-17 03:52
1. Report Industry Investment Ratings - Apple: Neutral to bullish [3] - Red dates: Neutral [7] 2. Core Views of the Report - Apple: The futures price of apples fluctuated and declined yesterday, while the spot market showed a pattern of active trading in the west and sluggish trading in Shandong. The prices of high - quality apples in Shaanxi and Gansu remained stable and firm, while trading in Shandong was sporadic due to the small quantity and average quality of red apples. The price of high - quality apples will remain stable and firm, and the price of average - quality apples will be difficult to strengthen. The subsequent focus is on the game between merchants' purchasing mentality and fruit farmers' selling mentality [2]. - Red dates: The futures price of red dates fluctuated and rose yesterday. The new - season red dates in Xinjiang are about to be harvested, and the stocking of mainland merchants has begun. The short - term spot price is expected to remain stable. The market has a relatively certain judgment on the yield trend, and the quality of red dates is better than that of the same period last year. If the yield and quality fall short of expectations, the upward trend of red dates may continue; otherwise, the futures price will be in a volatile pattern [6][7]. 3. Summary by Related Catalogs Apple Market News and Important Data - Futures: The closing price of the Apple 2601 contract yesterday was 8,510 yuan/ton, down 155 yuan/ton or 1.79% from the previous day. - Spot: The price of semi - commercial late Fuji apples above 70 in Luochuan, Shaanxi was 3.85 yuan/jin, unchanged from the previous day. The spot basis was AP01 + - 810, up 155 from the previous day. The prices of late Fuji apples in different regions showed significant differences, with the prices in Shaanxi and Gansu being relatively high and that in Shandong being relatively low [1]. Market Analysis - The futures price of apples fluctuated and declined yesterday. The spot market was divided, with active trading in the west and sluggish trading in Shandong. The continuous rainy weather affected the coloration of apples in the production areas, delaying the concentrated listing time of red apples. After the Double Festival, the demand did not improve significantly. The price of high - quality apples remained stable and firm, and the price gap between high - quality and average - quality apples was obvious [2]. Strategy - The strategy for apples is neutral to bullish. The late Fuji apples are sporadically on the market, and the acquisition period may be shortened. It is expected that the price of high - quality apples will remain stable and firm, and the price gap will be obvious [3]. Red Dates Market News and Important Data - Futures: The closing price of the Red Dates 2601 contract yesterday was 11,360 yuan/ton, up 255 yuan/ton or 2.30% from the previous day. - Spot: The spot price of first - grade gray dates in Hebei was 9.50 yuan/kg, unchanged from the previous day. The spot basis was CJ01 - 1860, down 255 from the previous day. The new - season red dates in Xinjiang are about to be harvested, and the stocking of mainland merchants has begun. The order - signing process in different regions is progressing, but the current price is not representative [4]. Market Analysis - The futures price of red dates fluctuated and rose yesterday. The new - season red dates in Xinjiang are about to be harvested, and the stocking of mainland merchants has begun. The short - term spot price is expected to remain stable. The inventory pressure is still there, and the supply - demand contradiction has not been substantially alleviated. The market has a relatively certain judgment on the yield trend, and the quality of red dates is better than that of the same period last year [6]. Strategy - The strategy for red dates is neutral. If the yield and quality fall short of expectations, the upward trend of red dates may continue; otherwise, the futures price will be in a volatile pattern. Attention should be paid to consumption, new - season quality, and yield changes [7].

中国通胀系列十三:9月通胀降幅继续收敛
Hua Tai Qi Huo· 2025-10-16 05:15
Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - In September 2025, the year-on-year decline of PPI was 2.3%, with the decline narrowing by 0.6 percentage points compared to the previous month, and remaining flat for two consecutive months on a month-on-month basis, indicating a continuous easing of the downward pressure on industrial product prices. The prices in the midstream manufacturing industry improved, and the prices in industries such as coal and ferrous metals continued to rise; in the industries related to external demand, the prices of electronics and aircraft manufacturing maintained growth. Structurally, there were differentiation characteristics: on the one hand, the prices of new quality productivity industries such as photovoltaic equipment rebounded, and the prices of consumer upgrade products increased significantly; on the other hand, affected by the decline in international oil prices, the prices of domestic oil-related products weakened. Overall, the current recovery of PPI is mainly driven by the low-base effect and policy expectations, but the recovery of downstream demand is still uneven, and the subsequent trend of industrial product prices still needs to focus on the substantial improvement of the demand side [4]. - In September 2025, the year-on-year decline of CPI was 0.3%, with the decline narrowing by 0.1 percentage points compared to the previous month, and the month-on-month change turned from flat to an increase of 0.1%. The core CPI increased by 1.0% year-on-year, with the increase expanding for 5 consecutive months, and it returned to above 1% for the first time in nearly 19 months. Food prices decreased by 4.4% year-on-year, and the prices of major food items such as fresh vegetables and pork were still in the downward range; non-food prices increased by 0.7% year-on-year, among which the increases of industrial consumer goods such as gold jewelry and household appliances were obvious; service prices maintained stable growth. Overall, the continuous recovery of core CPI shows that domestic consumer demand is steadily recovering with policy support, but the drag of food prices still exists, and the improvement of CPI in the fourth quarter may be limited [5]. Summary by Directory 1. Macro Events - On October 15th, the National Bureau of Statistics released data showing that in September 2025, the national consumer price index (CPI) decreased by 0.3% year-on-year. Among them, the CPI in urban areas decreased by 0.2%, and that in rural areas decreased by 0.5%; food prices decreased by 4.4%, and non-food prices increased by 0.7%; consumer goods prices decreased by 0.8%, and service prices increased by 0.6%. From January to September, the average national consumer price decreased by 0.1% compared with the same period of the previous year. - In September 2025, the national producer price index (PPI) for industrial products decreased by 2.3% year-on-year, with the decline narrowing by 0.6 percentage points compared to the previous month, and remaining flat on a month-on-month basis. The purchase price index for industrial producers decreased by 3.1% year-on-year, with the decline narrowing by 0.9 percentage points compared to the previous month, and increasing by 0.1% on a month-on-month basis. From January to September, the average producer price index for industrial products decreased by 2.8% compared with the same period of the previous year, and the purchase price index for industrial producers decreased by 3.2% [3]. 2. 9 - Month Inflation Decline Convergence - PPI - The decline of PPI continued to narrow. In September 2025, PPI decreased by 2.3% year-on-year (with the decline narrowing by 0.6 percentage points compared to the previous month), and remained flat for two consecutive months on a month-on-month basis; the purchase price for industrial producers decreased by 3.1% year-on-year, with the decline narrowing by 0.9 percentage points compared to the previous month, and increasing by 0.1% on a month-on-month basis. - The price pressure in the midstream manufacturing industry eased. The prices in the midstream processing industry improved. The prices of coal mining and washing increased by 2.5% month-on-month, and the prices of coal processing increased by 3.8% month-on-month, both rising for two consecutive months. The prices of ferrous metal smelting and rolling processing increased by 0.2% month-on-month; the prices of non-metallic mineral products decreased by 0.4% month-on-month, but the decline narrowed by 0.6 percentage points compared to the previous month. - Some improvements were seen in the external demand industries. Driven by the construction of a modern industrial system, the prices of electronic special material manufacturing increased by 1.2% year-on-year. In the field of intelligent unmanned aerial vehicle manufacturing, the prices of aircraft manufacturing increased by 1.4% year-on-year. - The impact of international input was differentiated. The decline in international oil prices led to a 2.7% month-on-month decrease in domestic oil extraction prices and a 1.5% month-on-month decrease in refined petroleum product manufacturing prices. - The new quality productivity industries maintained growth. The new driving forces for development grew steadily, and the prices of related industries rebounded year-on-year. The prices of photovoltaic equipment and component manufacturing turned from a decline to an increase, with a growth rate of 0.8%; the prices of waste resource comprehensive utilization industries increased by 0.9% year-on-year. - Consumer demand continued to provide support. The demand for upgraded consumption continued to increase. The prices of arts and crafts and ceremonial supplies manufacturing increased by 14.7%, the prices of sports ball manufacturing increased by 4.0%, and the prices of nutritional food manufacturing increased by 1.8%. - Overall, the year-on-year recovery of PPI in the third quarter was mainly affected by the low-base effect and anti-involution market expectations. By industry, non-ferrous metal prices were relatively strong, while ferrous metal prices were relatively weak due to slow recovery of downstream demand and inventory accumulation; in September, international crude oil prices were weak due to geopolitical factors, and the ex-factory prices of related petrochemical products also declined. As the steady growth plans for various industries are gradually implemented and the effects of anti-involution policies are further manifested, the subsequent industrial product prices will follow the demand trend. Attention should be paid to whether there will be incremental policy promotion in the fourth quarter, and industrial product prices may maintain a weak pattern [9][10]. 3. 9 - Month Inflation Decline Convergence - CPI - CPI turned from flat to an increase on a month-on-month basis, and the year-on-year decline narrowed. In September, CPI decreased by 0.3% year-on-year (with the decline narrowing by 0.1 percentage points compared to the previous month), and turned from flat to an increase of 0.1% on a month-on-month basis. The core CPI excluding food and energy prices increased by 1.0% year-on-year, with the increase expanding by 0.1 percentage points compared to the previous month, expanding for the 5th consecutive month, and it returned to above 1% for the first time in nearly 19 months. From January to September, the average CPI decreased by 0.1% compared with the same period of the previous year. - The year-on-year decline of food prices slightly expanded. Food prices decreased by 4.4% year-on-year, with the decline expanding by 0.1 percentage points compared to the previous month. Among them, the prices of pork, fresh vegetables, and eggs decreased by 17.0%, 13.7%, and 13.5% respectively year-on-year; the prices of fresh fruits decreased by 4.2% year-on-year. On a month-on-month basis, food prices increased by 0.7% in September, among which the prices of fresh vegetables, eggs, and fresh fruits all showed seasonal increases. - The increase of non-food prices expanded. Non-food prices increased by 0.7% year-on-year. Among industrial consumer goods, the prices of gold jewelry and platinum jewelry increased by 42.1% and 33.6% respectively year-on-year; the prices of household appliances and household daily sundries increased by 5.5% and 3.2% respectively year-on-year. - Service consumption maintained stable growth. Service prices increased by 0.6% year-on-year. Among them, the prices of medical services and household services increased by 1.9% and 1.6% respectively year-on-year; affected by factors such as the end of the summer vacation and the misaligned Mid-Autumn Festival, the prices of airplane tickets and hotel accommodation decreased by 1.7% and 1.5% respectively year-on-year. - The year-on-year decline of CPI in September narrowed marginally to -0.3%, mainly due to the carry-over effect. The continuous expansion of the core CPI increase and its return to above 1% indicate that domestic consumer demand continues to recover under the support of macro policies. In the short term, food prices continue to decline, and durable goods prices face downward pressure, so the improvement of CPI in the fourth quarter may be weak [26][27]. 4. Appendix: CPI and PPI Data for September 2025 - In September 2025, the national consumer price index (CPI) decreased by 0.3% year-on-year. Among them, the CPI in urban areas decreased by 0.2%, and that in rural areas decreased by 0.5%; food prices decreased by 4.4%, and non-food prices increased by 0.7%; consumer goods prices decreased by 0.8%, and service prices increased by 0.6%. From January to September, the average national consumer price decreased by 0.1% compared with the same period of the previous year.
