1. Report Industry Investment Rating - There is no information provided regarding the report industry investment rating in the given content. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The paper pulp market has limited rebound momentum due to weak downstream procurement, sufficient spot supply, especially for broadleaf pulp, and the pressure of old warehouse receipts. The market is expected to remain in a state of weak consolidation. For the offset printing paper market, the future supply - demand structure is difficult to improve significantly. With the implementation of复产 capacity, supply is expected to increase, while demand in October is hard to be significantly boosted, showing an overall weak trend [11][19]. 3.

Group 1: Investment Rating - There is no information about the industry investment rating in the report. Group 2: Core Viewpoints - The current supply pressure in the pig market remains significant, with high inventory levels and large weights of pigs for slaughter. The spot price of live pigs rebounded slightly today, but the overall scale of enterprise slaughter volume decreased slightly and remained at a high level. The slaughter volume this month continued to increase, and there was still pressure to meet the previous progress. The enthusiasm of ordinary farmers to sell pigs is expected to remain relatively stable. Secondary fattening has started to show signs of entry, providing some support to prices. However, considering the high inventory and large weights of pigs, the supply pressure in the pig market is expected to persist, and the spot price is likely to decline in the future. The futures price of live pigs has dropped significantly, and the supply pressure remains. The limited rebound space of the spot price has also reduced its impact on the futures market. The far - month futures contracts are under pressure, and the overall futures market is expected to face certain downward pressure, with short - term price fluctuations and long - term downward trends [4][6]. Group 3: Summary by Category 1. Spot Price - The average spot price of live pigs today was 10.85 yuan/kg, up 0.2 yuan/kg from yesterday.

The domestic soybean meal market is consolidating, and the decline space is limited after significant drops. Rapeseed meal has a slight rebound, but overall changes are limited, and the fundamental pressure persists [4]. - The soybean - related market is under pressure. Without a significant tightening of the balance sheet, the price center of the soybean system is expected to decline. Rapeseed meal is expected to move in a volatile manner [5][8]. - Given the current market situation, the recommended trading strategies are to stay on the sidelines for single - sided trading and engage in the M11 - 1 calendar spread. For options, selling a wide - straddle structure is suggested [11][12]. 3. Summary by Relevant Contents 3.1 Market Quotes - **Futures and Spot Prices**: On October 16, 2025, soybean meal futures contracts 01, 05, and 09 closed at 2907, 2742, and 2853 respectively, with changes of - 10, + 2, and 0.

The new crop's supply has slightly increased due to a small increase in planting area despite a slight decrease in yield per unit. South American old - crop supply is relatively loose, with expected increases in production, crushing volume, and possible increases in carry - over inventory or exports. The international soybean meal supply pressure is significant [5]. - **Domestic Market**: The domestic spot pressure has slightly improved but remains relatively loose. As of October 10, the soybean inventory was 765.76 million tons, an increase of 6.37% from the previous week and 14.29% year - on - year. The soybean meal inventory was 107.91 million tons, a decrease of 9.26% from the previous week but an increase of 6.17% year - on - year. Rapeseed meal demand is gradually weakening, and the supply pressure still exists [8]. 3.3 Macroeconomic Factors - Sino - US communication has reduced concerns about trade conflicts, but the Madrid negotiation did not provide clear guidance on the soybean industry. With the decreasing demand for US soybeans in the long - term, the upward space for the domestic soybean meal futures market is limited [9]. 3.4 Logical Analysis - The market is oscillating. After reflecting various negative factors, the downward space is limited. The overall supply - demand situation of domestic soybean meal is relatively loose, and the price pressure of US and Brazilian soybeans is still obvious. Rapeseed meal prices lack significant fluctuations, and the price spreads of both soybean meal and rapeseed meal are affected by macro and supply - demand factors [10]. 3.5 Trading Strategies - **Single - sided Trading**: Stay on the sidelines. - **Arbitrage**: Engage in the M11 - 1 calendar spread. - **Options**: Sell a wide - straddle structure [11][12]. 3.6 Soybean Pressing Profits - Pressing profits vary by source and shipping date.

Industry News - Trump said that Modi assured him that India would not buy oil from Russia, but it would take a process.

Report Summary 1. Investment Rating No investment rating for the industry is provided in the report. 2. Core View - Globally, the sugar production increase in major producing areas is being realized. Brazil is in the peak supply period, with a significant increase in sugar production. The cumulative sugar production is almost the same as last year, and it is expected to remain high in the near - term. With the recent decline in crude oil prices, the support from ethanol for sugar has weakened, and the fundamental situation of raw sugar is weak. The main contract has fallen below the previous low, and the downward space has been opened, indicating a generally weak trend. - In the domestic market, the supply is mainly from imported sugar recently. Given the weak price trend of foreign sugar, it is expected that Zhengzhou sugar will follow the trend of the foreign market in the short - term. The trading strategy suggests short - selling on rallies, and recommends a wait - and - see approach for arbitrage and options [11][12]. 3.
