Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided regarding the report industry investment rating. 2. Core Viewpoints - The global soybean supply in the 24/25 season has decreased, and the bottom of import costs may have emerged, but upward movement requires greater production cuts. Domestic soybean and soybean meal inventories are high, and soybean meal is expected to trade sideways [3][5]. - Malaysian palm oil exports decreased in November, and production showed a mixed trend. Palm oil is expected to trade sideways, and a shift to a bullish strategy can be considered if there are signs of production decline [7][9]. - Zhengzhou sugar futures prices fell. With increasing sugar production in Brazil and expected production increases in the Northern Hemisphere in the 2025/26 season, it is advisable to look for opportunities to short at high prices [11][12]. - Zhengzhou cotton futures prices continued to trade sideways. Weak downstream demand and high domestic production this year may lead to short - term sideways movement in cotton prices [14][15]. - Egg prices were mostly stable with minor fluctuations. The egg futures market is expected to trade sideways in the short term, and a short - selling strategy can be considered on rebounds in the medium term [17][18]. - Pig prices were half stable and half falling. The overall trend of the pig futures market is bearish, but there may be short - term rebounds. It is recommended to use a reverse spread strategy first and then short on rebounds [20][21]. 3.

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The negative feedback of the recent decline in the steel market has ended, and short - term price increases are mainly due to short - sellers taking profits. Steel demand has entered the off - season, with high inventory pressure on hot - rolled coils. In the short term, prices are likely to continue weak and volatile, but there may be a marginal inflection point in demand with policy implementation and macro - environment improvement [2]. - For iron ore, although the supply has recovered and high inventory suppresses prices, the short - term increase in hot metal production supports demand. In the macro - vacuum period, prices will operate within a shock range [5]. - For the black sector, as the time approaches December, the positive impact of macro - expectations on sentiment and prices is expected to increase. It is more cost - effective to look for positions to rebound rather than short. The future price increase depends on the introduction and strength of stimulus policies [10][11]. - Industrial silicon is expected to show a pattern of "weak supply and demand", with short - term prices likely to be weak and volatile. Polysilicon is still fluctuating between reality and expectations, and prices are in a wide - range shock [15][17]. - For glass, due to the imbalance between supply and demand, high inventory, and weak demand, the short - term market will continue to be weak. For soda ash, with high supply and weak demand, prices will continue to oscillate at a low level [20][22].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - For crude oil, although the geopolitical premium has disappeared and OPEC's production increase is minimal with supply not yet surging, short - term oil prices should not be overly bearish. A low - buy and high - sell range strategy is maintained, but it's advisable to wait and see for now to verify OPEC's export price - support intention through a decline in exports when prices fall [3]. - For methanol, high port inventories are suppressing prices. Overseas production remains high, and the supply pressure persists while demand is weak. It's expected that inventories will be hard to reduce in the short term, and prices may decline further. Given the current significant and rapid drop, it's recommended to wait and see [6]. - For urea, the market is sensitive to positive news due to large internal - external price differences and low domestic prices. Domestic demand lacks support, and supply is high. New export policies have improved the market atmosphere, and inventories are being reduced. It's expected that the downside space is limited, and the market will mainly bottom out through oscillations [9]. - For natural rubber, a short - term long - bias trading strategy is recommended, and a partial position can be established for the hedge of buying RU2601 and selling RU2609 [12]. - For PVC, the fundamental situation is poor. Supply is strong, demand is weak, and export expectations are turning negative. There is a continuous inventory build - up pressure. It's advisable to consider short - selling on rallies in the medium term [14]. - For pure benzene and styrene, the BZN spread has room for upward correction. The supply of pure benzene is relatively abundant, and the production of styrene is increasing. Styrene port inventories are decreasing significantly, and prices may stop falling in stages [17]. - For polyethylene, the crude oil price may have bottomed out, and the downward valuation space of PE is limited. However, a high number of warehouse receipts is suppressing the market. Overall inventories are being reduced from a high level, and prices may remain in a low - level oscillation [20]. - For polypropylene, the cost - end supply surplus may expand. Supply pressure is high, and demand is weak. Overall inventory pressure is high, and the market may be supported when the supply - surplus situation at the cost end changes in the first quarter of 2026 [23]. - For PX, it's expected to have a slight inventory build - up in November, but there is support from aromatics blending for gasoline and the long - term supply - demand structure. There are opportunities for valuation to rise in the medium term [26]. - For PTA, there will be continuous inventory build - up in November due to new device launches, and processing fees will be under pressure. The polyester load is unlikely to increase significantly. There are opportunities for PTA to strengthen driven by an increase in PXN in the medium term [28][29]. - For ethylene glycol, there will be continuous inventory build - up in the fourth quarter. Valuation is relatively low and may be further compressed. It's recommended to short - sell on rallies [31]. 3.

Summary by Commodity Soybean and Soybean Meal - **Market Information**: Last Friday, CBOT soybeans closed lower. The USDA monthly report lowered the new - crop soybean production in the US and globally. US soybean exports were also lowered. Brazilian soybean premiums were stable last week, and the cost of imported soybeans rose. Domestic soybean meal spot prices dropped slightly over the weekend. MYSTEEL statistics showed average domestic soybean meal sales last week, good pick - up, and a slight decrease in feed enterprise inventory days. MYSTEEL expects the soybean crushing volume of domestic oil mills to increase this week [2]. - **Supply and Demand**: In the next two weeks, rainfall in Brazilian soybean - growing areas is expected to be normal, and sowing is expected to proceed normally. The USDA monthly report lowered the global new - crop soybean production by about 4.1 million tons and the ending inventory by 2 million tons. US soybean production was lowered by about 1.3 million tons, but exports were lowered by 1.36 million tons, resulting in only a 280,000 - ton reduction in US soybean inventory [3]. - **Strategy**: Import costs may have found a bottom, but upward movement requires greater production cuts. Domestic soybean and soybean meal inventories are high, but the de - stocking season is approaching, providing some support. Soybean meal is expected to trade in a range [5]. Vegetable Oils - **Market Information**: ITS and AMSPEC data showed a 9.5% - 12.28% decrease in Malaysian palm oil exports from November 1 - 10 compared to the same period last month.

Report Summary 1) Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2) Core Views of the Report - The recent decline in nickel prices is due to the superposition of fundamental pressures, with the continuous weakness of ferronickel prices being the direct cause and the decline in nickel sulfate demand exacerbating the surplus expectation of refined nickel [2][5][12]. - The short - term support level for nickel prices may be around 115,000 yuan/ton, but it is not recommended to buy at this level [12]. 3) Summary by Related Contents Recent Nickel Price Decline - Recently, nickel prices broke through the previous shock platform, with the Shanghai nickel main contract closing at 117,080 yuan/ton on November 14, a decline of 2.16%, and the LME nickel at $14,860/ton, a weekly decline of 1.07% [5]. - The decline is due to the continuous growth of refined nickel inventory since October, the accelerated decline of ferronickel prices since November, the expected increase in refined nickel supply, and the weakening demand for nickel sulfate [5]. Weak Ferronickel Price and High - Ice Nickel Conversion Expectation - Stainless steel demand is weak, driving down ferronickel prices. As of November 14, the domestic high - nickel pig iron ex - factory price has dropped to around 900 yuan/nickel point [7]. - The price deviation between refined nickel and ferronickel has led to a higher premium of refined nickel, increasing the expectation of ferronickel conversion to high - ice nickel. High - ice nickel production reached 36,000 tons in October and is expected to increase in November [7]. Weakening Nickel Sulfate Demand - Affected by the over - expected growth of new energy vehicles, ternary battery production was strong in the third quarter, but nickel sulfate demand may have reached its annual high seasonally [9]. - The cancellation of the new energy vehicle purchase tax exemption policy in 2026 may lead to a decline in new energy vehicle sales, and a significant drop in the premium of nickel sulfate over refined nickel may push intermediates into the refined nickel market, exacerbating the surplus expectation [9]. Short - Term Support for Nickel Prices - The continuous weakness of ferronickel prices and the decline in nickel sulfate demand are the main reasons for the decline of refined nickel prices [12]. - The current ferronickel profit level is at an absolute low, and the ferronickel price may be close to a phased low. The corresponding nickel price support level is around 115,000 yuan/ton [12].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No information about industry investment rating is provided in the report 2. Core Viewpoints - The steel demand has officially entered the off - season, and there are still inventory risks in hot - rolled coils. Future price trends will depend on the production cut rhythm. With the implementation of the Fed's easing expectations and positive signals from the China - US meeting, the market sentiment and capital environment are expected to improve, and the steel consumption side may gradually recover. In the short term, due to cost factors, the price of finished products will continue to be weak and volatile, but there may be an inflection point in demand with policy implementation and macro - environment changes [2] - The iron ore supply shows a downward trend in overseas shipments, while the demand has a marginal increase in iron ore due to the rebound of daily hot - metal production. High inventory still suppresses prices, and in the short - term, the ore price will operate within the range of 750 - 760 yuan/ton [5] - The black sector has continued to decline in the past week, but as the time approaches December, the impact of macro - expectations on emotions and prices is expected to be positive. It is recommended to pay attention to the inflection point of market sentiment and price. For the black sector, the cost - performance of seeking positions for rebound is relatively high [9] - The industrial silicon may present a pattern of "weak supply and demand". The cost provides a bottom - support, and in the short - term, it will be weak and volatile. The follow - up development of the "anti - involution" in the downstream industry needs to be concerned [13] - The polysilicon market is still in a tug - of - war between reality and expectation. The supply - reduction expectation has been realized, and the supply - demand pattern may improve marginally, but the short - term de - stocking amplitude is limited. The market is still in a fierce game, and the follow - up progress of the platform company and the price feedback of the industrial chain need to be concerned [16] - The current float glass market has limited positive factors, and the downstream support is insufficient. High inventory suppresses prices, the short - term rebound momentum is insufficient, and the upward space is restricted [19] - The current soda ash industry has a relatively high supply, and the downstream demand is average. Some enterprises have a stronger willingness to support prices, and in the short - term, the price will continue to fluctuate at a low level [21] 3.

The Ximengdu Iron Ore project was officially put into production on November 11, but it will take time to increase production, and the increase is expected to be limited this year [4] Strategy Viewpoints - In terms of supply, the overseas iron ore shipments continued to decline in the latest period. In the shipping end, the shipments from Australia and Brazil continued to fall, with Vale and Rio Tinto contributing to the reduction. The shipments from non - mainstream countries increased, and the near - end arrival volume decreased month - on - month. In terms of demand, the daily hot - metal production in the latest period was 236.88 tons, an increase of 2.66 tons month - on - month. The increase mainly came from Hebei, with the utilization rate of some blast furnaces increasing. The profitability of steel mills continued to decline, and some regional steel mills started blast furnace annual inspections due to losses. The port inventory continued to accumulate, and the steel mill inventory increased slightly. The terminal data was weak. High inventory still suppresses prices, and the short - term rebound of hot - metal production supports the iron ore demand marginally. In the short - term, the ore price will operate within the range, and the lower limit is 750 - 760 yuan/ton [5] Manganese Silicon and Ferrosilicon Market Information - On November 14, the main contract of manganese silicon (SM601) closed down 0.14% at 5748 yuan/ton.

On the daily - line level, it was still in the range of 5400 - 5800 yuan/ton [8] Strategy Viewpoints - The black sector continued to decline in the past week. As the time approaches December, the impact of macro - expectations on emotions and prices is expected to be positive. It is recommended to pay attention to the inflection point of market sentiment and price. For the black sector, the cost - performance of seeking positions for rebound is relatively high. The fundamentals of manganese silicon are still not ideal, and attention should be paid to the manganese ore end. The fundamentals of ferrosilicon have no obvious contradictions and drivers, and the operability is relatively low [9][10] Industrial Silicon and Polysilicon Market Information (Industrial Silicon) - The closing price of the industrial silicon main contract (SI2601) on Friday was 9020 yuan/ton, with a change of - 1.37% (- 125).
