Group 1: Report Industry Investment Ratings - The investment ratings for cotton, sugar, and pulp are all neutral [3][8][10] Group 2: Core Views of the Report - The cotton market lacks obvious upward drivers, with international and domestic markets facing supply - demand imbalances. In the short - term, cotton prices are under pressure, while in the long - term, they are expected to be more optimistic. The sugar market is in a globally over - supplied situation, but short - term price declines are limited, and long - term trends are not optimistic. The pulp market has a supply - demand imbalance, with supply remaining loose and demand weak, limiting the rebound of pulp prices [2][7][9] Group 3: Summary by Different Commodities Cotton Market News and Key Data - Futures: The closing price of the cotton 2601 contract yesterday was 13,445 yuan/ton, down 5 yuan/ton from the previous day, a decrease of 0.04%. Spot: The Xinjiang arrival price of 3128B cotton was 14,579 yuan/ton, down 15 yuan/ton from the previous day; the national average price was 14,801 yuan/ton, down 5 yuan/ton from the previous day. According to the USDA's November report, the 2025/26 US cotton planting area is 56.427 million mu, the harvest area is 44.729 million mu, with a constant abandonment rate of 20.7%. The expected yield per mu is 68.7 kg, up 6.7% from September, and the expected output is 3.073 million tons, an increase of 194,000 tons from September. The expected consumption is 370,000 tons, and the expected export volume is 2.654 million tons, an increase of 44,000 tons from September. The ending inventory increases by 152,000 tons to 936,000 tons [1] Market Analysis - Internationally, the USDA's November report significantly increased the US cotton output, and the global cotton output, consumption, and ending inventory in the 2025/26 season all increased compared to September, with a bearish adjustment direction. The northern hemisphere's new cotton is concentrated on the market, and the global textile terminal consumption is weak. Domestically, the expected new cotton output has declined, and the seed cotton purchase price has stabilized and rebounded. However, new cotton is still expected to increase in production, the downstream "Golden September and Silver October" peak season is not prosperous, and it is currently the off - season for the textile industry, with insufficient demand [2] Strategy - Neutral. In the short - term, cotton prices face strong hedging pressure and may decline after cost solidification. In the long - term, the beginning inventory of the new year is low, consumption is resilient, and the supply - demand is not too loose. After the seasonal pressure, cotton prices can be viewed optimistically [3] Sugar Market News and Key Data - Futures: The closing price of the sugar 2601 contract yesterday was 5,458 yuan/ton, down 12 yuan/ton from the previous day, a decrease of 0.22%. Spot: The sugar spot price in Kunming, Yunnan was 5,630 yuan/ton, down 5 yuan/ton from the previous day. In the second half of October, the sugarcane crushing volume in the central - southern region of Brazil was 31.108 million tons, an increase of 3.902 million tons compared to the same period last year, a year - on - year increase of 14.34%. The sugar production was 2.068 million tons, an increase of 292,000 tons compared to the same period last year, a year - on - year increase of 16.40%. From the beginning of the 2025/26 crushing season to the second half of October, the cumulative sugar production was 38.085 million tons, an increase of 611,000 tons compared to the same period last year, a year - on - year increase of 1.63% [4][5] Market Analysis - The global sugar market is in a pattern of over - supply, with Brazil's supply remaining strong, India's sugar production expected to rebound significantly, and Thailand's sugar production also expected to increase. However, in the short - term, India's exports are difficult to increase, and Brazil's supply pressure is gradually weakening. The domestic new crushing season has a strong expectation of increased sugar production, but the current price is close to the cost line, and the sugar mills have the intention to support the price, and the syrup control policy is tightened, so the decline space of Zhengzhou sugar is limited [6][7] Strategy - Neutral. In the short - term, the support around 5,400 is strong, and Zhengzhou sugar is expected to fluctuate before the Spring Festival. In the long - term, the domestic supply - demand is expected to be loose, and the price may not be optimistic next year, with the possibility of new lows [8] Pulp Market News and Key Data - Futures: The closing price of the pulp 2601 contract yesterday was 5,474 yuan/ton, down 6 yuan/ton from the previous day, a decrease of 0.11%. Spot: The spot price of Chilean Silver Star softwood pulp in Shandong was 5,550 yuan/ton, unchanged from the previous day; the spot price of Russian softwood pulp (Ural and Baikal) was 5,125 yuan/ton, unchanged from the previous day. The price of imported wood pulp in the spot market fluctuated slightly, with only a few pulp types showing a strengthening trend [9] Market Analysis - Supply: The European pulp port inventory in September decreased month - on - month but remained at a relatively high level. The domestic port inventory removal was slower than expected, and the supply remained loose. Demand: The pulp consumption in Europe and the United States was weak, and the global pulp mill inventory pressure was increasing. Domestic demand was weak, and although there was a large amount of finished paper production capacity put into operation this year, the terminal demand was insufficient, and the paper mills' operating rate declined [9] Strategy - Neutral. The fundamental improvement of the pulp market is insufficient, and the continuous rebound space of pulp prices is limited. Attention should be paid to the actual implementation of the peak - season demand in the fourth quarter [10]

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The investment rating of the lead industry is neutral [3] 2. Core View of the Report - The lead market is characterized by tight supply at the mine end and differentiated consumption, with continuous inventory accumulation before delivery. The lead price is constrained by weak demand and high inventory on the upside and supported by cost on the downside. In the short term, it is expected to fluctuate, with the price range roughly between 17,000 yuan/ton and 17,850 yuan/ton. For options, selling a wide straddle is recommended [3] 3. Summary by Section Market News and Important Data Spot Market - On November 17, 2025, the LME lead spot premium was -$23.09/ton.

The trading volume was 74,591 lots, an increase of 37,245 lots compared to the previous trading day, and the open interest was 74,585 lots, an increase of 36,168 lots compared to the previous trading day. The intraday price fluctuated, with a high of 17,520 yuan/ton and a low of 17,310 yuan/ton. In the night session, the main contract of Shanghai lead opened at 17,345 yuan/ton and closed at 17,250 yuan/ton, a 0.83% decrease from the afternoon close [2] Inventory - On November 17, 2025, the total SMM lead ingot inventory was 39,000 tons, an increase of 3,700 tons compared to the same period last week. As of November 17, the LME lead inventory was 266,125 tons, an increase of 43,650 tons compared to the previous trading day [2] Strategy - Adopt a neutral strategy. Given the tight supply at the mine end, differentiated consumption, and continuous inventory accumulation before delivery, the lead price is expected to fluctuate in the short term. Pay attention to the inventory depletion rhythm, with the price range roughly between 17,000 yuan/ton and 17,850 yuan/ton. For options, selling a wide straddle is recommended [3]

The spot prices of asphalt in the Northwest, North China, South China, and Sichuan - Chongqing regions declined yesterday, while those in other regions were relatively stable [1] - The market bottom signal has emerged. The refinery operating rate and production have shown a downward trend. After the previous concentrated release of resources, there is a shortage of limited - quantity提货 in northern refineries. However, there is no clear sign of the release of winter - storage demand. The market sentiment is relatively flat, and the rebound momentum is insufficient [1]

Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. Core Viewpoints - In the pure benzene market, the lowest point of US refinery operations has passed, but US gasoline inventories are at a low level, and gasoline cracks continue to strengthen, which supports Asian aromatics for blending. The arbitrage spread from South Korea to the US has recovered but not opened up. The future arrival pressure in China may slow down, but in the short term, there is a concentrated arrival of pure benzene in China, and port inventories are rising faster. Domestic production operations continue to increase, while downstream operations are weak. Styrene maintenance is concentrated, waiting for recovery at the end of the month; phenol operations are dragged down by low operations of bisphenol A and PC; CPL operations remain at a low level, waiting for inventory reduction; aniline and adipic acid operations are fair [2]. - In the styrene market, port inventories continue to decline, partly due to increased exports and partly due to low domestic operations. However, there are expectations of resumption in late November. Attention should be paid to whether the maintenance period will be further extended. Downstream demand for pick-up remains stable, but downstream operations are still low. EPS continues to reduce operations during the off-season, while ABS and PS operations are at a low level. Inventories of EPS and PS have decreased, but ABS still faces inventory pressure [2]. Summary by Directory 1.

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - For industrial silicon, after production cuts in the southwest region, the supply - demand pattern may improve, total inventory has decreased, and the current valuation is low. If there are relevant policies, the futures price may rise. For polysilicon, the supply and demand have both weakened, the inventory pressure is large, and the consumption performance is average. The futures price is expected to fluctuate mainly due to the influence of anti - involution policies and weak reality [3][8]. Summary by Related Catalogs Industrial Silicon Market Analysis - On November 17, 2025, the industrial silicon futures price fluctuated. The main contract 2601 opened at 9025 yuan/ton and closed at 9080 yuan/ton, a change of 60 yuan/ton (0.67%) from the previous day's settlement. The position of the 2511 main contract was 251,549 lots at the close, and the total number of warehouse receipts was 44,022 lots, a change of - 1323 lots from the previous day [1]. - The spot price of industrial silicon remained stable.

The silicon prices in various regions were flat, and the price of 97 silicon remained stable [1]. - As of November 13, the total social inventory of industrial silicon in major regions was 546,000 tons, a decrease of 6000 tons from the previous week. Among them, the social ordinary warehouse inventory was 127,000 tons, unchanged from the previous week, and the social delivery warehouse inventory was 419,000 tons, a decrease of 6000 tons from the previous week. The inventory in Tianjin and Guangzhou decreased more actively, and the overall social inventory decreased [1]. Consumption End - The quotation of silicone DMC was 12,500 - 13,000 yuan/ton. Domestic mainstream monomer manufacturers had a strong willingness to support the price of silicone products such as DMC and intended to jointly reduce production, but the implementation of production cuts was still to be discussed [2]. Strategy - Spot prices are stable. After production cuts in the southwest, the supply - demand pattern may improve, and total inventory has decreased. The industrial silicon futures price is mainly affected by the overall commodity sentiment and policy news. It is recommended to operate in the short - term range, and go long on the dry - season contracts on dips [3]. Polysilicon Market Analysis - On November 17, 2025, the main contract 2601 of polysilicon futures fluctuated weakly, opening at 54,060 yuan/ton and closing at 52,655 yuan/ton, a change of - 2.57% from the previous trading day.

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - Unilateral: Cautiously bullish; Arbitrage: Neutral [6] Group 2: Report's Core View - Zinc prices have declined, and there is restocking behavior in the spot market, but social inventories are increasing and are about to exceed the levels of the past five years. Spot liquidity has improved, but procurement remains cautious. The TC of domestic and imported ores continues to rise, leading to higher smelting profits and sustained smelting enthusiasm. The supply is expected to increase, and the pressure on the supply side continues to emerge. Even during the peak consumption season, the domestic inventory accumulation is expected, and the current inventory accumulation is accelerating. If the peak consumption season expectations are disappointed, zinc prices will face significant pressure and may show a relatively weak trend, but the impact of overseas inventories needs attention [5] Group 3: Summary by Related Catalogs Important Data - **Spot**: LME zinc spot premium is $175.85/ton. SMM Shanghai zinc spot price is 22,400 yuan/ton, down 90 yuan/ton from the previous trading day, with a premium of -10 yuan/ton; SMM Guangdong zinc spot price is 22,360 yuan/ton, down 100 yuan/ton, with a premium of -50 yuan/ton; Tianjin zinc spot price is 22,360 yuan/ton, down 90 yuan/ton, with a premium of -50 yuan/ton [2] - **Futures**: On November 17, 2025, the SHFE zinc main contract opened at 22,460 yuan/ton, closed at 22,465 yuan/ton, down 75 yuan/ton. The trading volume was 94,668 lots, and the open interest was 91,450 lots. The highest price was 22,495 yuan/ton, and the lowest was 22,385 yuan/ton [3] - **Inventory**: As of November 17, 2025, the total inventory of zinc ingots in seven regions monitored by SMM was 156,600 tons, down 1,300 tons from the previous period. As of the same date, LME zinc inventory was 39,975 tons, up 1,000 tons from the previous trading day [4] Market Analysis - Zinc prices have dropped, and there is restocking in the spot market, but social inventories are rising and approaching the five - year average. Spot liquidity has improved, but procurement is still cautious. The TC of domestic and imported ores is rising, smelting profits are increasing, and smelting enthusiasm remains high. The supply is expected to increase, and the pressure on the supply side is obvious. Even during the peak consumption season, domestic inventory accumulation is expected, and the current inventory build - up is accelerating. If the peak consumption season expectations are not met, zinc prices will face great pressure and may be relatively weak, but the impact of overseas inventories needs to be considered [5] Strategy - Unilateral: Cautiously bullish; Arbitrage: Neutral [6]

Report Summary 1. Core View - The rebound of the US dollar index has put pressure on global stock indices, which are undergoing an adjustment. After the adjustment of the technology sector, the overall trading volume in the market has declined, showing a rotational pattern with generally low sustainability. Some sectors have gradually fallen to support levels, and attention should be paid to the effectiveness of these supports.

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - The report suggests a cautious and slightly bullish stance on PX, PTA, PF, and PR. However, due to fundamental pressures, the upside potential of the 01 contract may be limited. In the long - term, attention should be paid to the 05 contract. [4] - For PX, China's PX load has returned to a relatively high level. Supported by polyester production, PXN has support, but its upside space is restricted by high PX load and capacity expansion of some units. The focus is on the gasoline blending situation. [4] - Regarding TA, there are many maintenance plans in November, so the inventory accumulation pressure is not significant. But after December, as demand weakens, the inventory accumulation pressure will gradually emerge. The market has abundant spot supply, limiting the upside of the 01 contract. In the long - term, as the cycle of concentrated capacity release ends, PTA processing fees are expected to gradually improve. [4] - For PF, the load is high, factory inventories have been reduced to a low level, and the fundamentals provide some support. Processing fees are expected to remain stable. [4] - For PR, the fundamentals of bottle chips have not changed significantly. Maintenance continues, but the off - season demand is average. It is expected that the spot processing fees of bottle chips will fluctuate within a range, and attention should be paid to raw material price fluctuations. [4] Summary by Directory I.
