From January to September 2025, the cumulative export volume was $221.686 billion, a year - on - year decrease of 0.33% [6]. Trading Logic - During the festival, the market focus shifted to the opening price of new cotton. This year, Xinjiang's cotton output is high and ginneries' purchasing enthusiasm is average, with no large - scale rush to purchase. As new cotton is abundantly listed, there may be selling hedging pressure on the futures market [7]. - The peak season demand in the market is average, and the improvement in downstream demand is limited, so the peak season performance this year is not expected to be outstanding, and its boosting effect on the futures market is also limited [7]. Trading Strategy - Unilateral: It is expected that the future trend of US cotton will mostly be volatile, while Zhengzhou cotton is expected to show a slightly weak volatile trend [8]. - Arbitrage: Hold a wait - and - see attitude [8]. - Options: Hold a wait - and - see attitude [8]. Cotton Yarn Industry News - Affected by factors such as the easing of Sino - US relations, lower - than - expected new cotton output, and poor quality of some new cotton, the decline of Zhengzhou cotton has slowed down. Pure - cotton yarn prices remained stable overall, with some manufacturers' quotes still slightly decreasing, and the actual transaction center of gravity gradually declined [9]. - The demand peak season in the pure - cotton fabric market is not prosperous, with a weak trading atmosphere and prices being stable but slightly weak. Weaving mills' orders are mostly small and scattered, and they hope to receive spring - summer order sampling work in November [11]. Group 3: Options - Information on cotton options, including option contract names, underlying contract prices, closing prices, price change percentages, implied volatility (IV), Delta, Gamma, Vega, Theta, theoretical leverage, and actual leverage, is provided [13]. - The 120 - day historical volatility (HV) of cotton is 8.4519, with a slight decrease compared to the previous day.

Traders mainly purchased new - season Fuji in the northwest producing areas. Due to weather influence, the new - season apples in Shandong have not been listed in large quantities, with few purchases in the producing areas [7] - The profit of storage merchants for 80 first - and second - grade apples in Qixia in the 2024 - 2025 production season was 0.4 yuan per catty, a decrease of 0.1 yuan per catty from last week [8] - The order price of apples in Luochuan, Shaanxi was stable, with the mainstream transaction price of semi - commercial apples above 70 being 3.5 - 4.0 yuan per catty, and the high - price being 4.0 - 4.5 yuan per catty. In Qixia, Shandong, the mainstream price of apples was stable, with the price of 80 first - and second - grade apples varying according to quality [9] Trading Logic - In some areas of Shaanxi this year, the fruit diameter is small, and there are water - crack problems in some producing areas due to continuous rainfall. The high - quality fruit rate of late - maturing Fuji is expected to be low, the opening price of late - maturing Fuji is high, and the cost of making futures warehouse receipts is high. The futures price is expected to remain in a slightly strong oscillating trend in the short term [10] Trading Strategy - Unilateral trading: The apple futures price is expected to be mainly oscillating and strong in the short term due to the expected low high - quality fruit rate [11] - Arbitrage: It is recommended to wait and see [11] - Options: It is recommended to wait and see [11] Group 3: Related Attachments - The report includes charts such as the price of Qixia first - and second - grade paper - bag 80 apples, the price of Luochuan semi - commercial paper - bag 70 apples, AP contract main - contract basis, AP10 - AP01 price difference, the total apple arrival volume in Chalong, Jiangmen and Xiaqiao, the price of 6 kinds of fruits, national cold - storage apple inventory, and national cold - storage apple outbound volume [15][17][23]

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - There is no information about the report industry investment rating provided in the content. Group 2: Report Core View - Oil prices are running weakly, macro - risks are not fully resolved, and the cost side lacks continuous support. In the fourth quarter, supply remains high in the short - term, demand weakens quarter - on - quarter, inventory accumulation pressure in the industry chain increases, and asphalt itself lacks upward drivers. It is expected to fluctuate weakly on a single - side basis. In the short term, attention should be paid to the impact of large fluctuations in crude oil. The BU2511 contract should focus on the support around 3300 [8]. Group 3: Summary According to Related Catalogs 3.1 Related Data - **Futures Prices and Positions**: On October 15, 2025, compared with the previous day, BU2511 (the main contract) dropped from 3290 to 3250, a decrease of 40 or 1.22%; BU2512 dropped from 3211 to 3184, a decrease of 27 or 0.84%; BU2601 dropped from 3167 to 3154, a decrease of 13 or 0.41%; SC2510 dropped from 448.6 to 443.7, a decrease of 4.9 or 1.09%; Brent first - line dropped from 62.94 to 62.23, a decrease of 0.7 or 1.13%. The main contract position decreased from 9.9 to 8.3 million lots, a decrease of 1.6 or 16.47%; the main contract trading volume increased from 10.1 to 11.3 million lots, an increase of 1.2 or 12.00%; the warehouse receipt quantity decreased from 43900 to 42370 tons, a decrease of 1530 or 3.49% [2]. - **Basis and Spread**: BU12 - 01 decreased from 44.00 to 30.00, a decrease of 14.00 or 31.82%; BU11 - 12 decreased from 79.00 to 66.00, a decrease of 13.00 or 16.46%; the Shandong - main contract basis increased from 379.00 to 396.00, an increase of 17.00 or 4.49%; the East China - main contract basis increased from 189.00 to 216.00, an increase of 27.00 or 14.29%; the South China - main contract basis increased from 239.00 to 266.00, an increase of 27.00 or 11.30% [2]. - **Industrial Chain Spot Prices**: The Shandong market price decreased from 3460 to 3450, a decrease of 10.00 or 0.29%; the East China market price remained at 3400, a change of 0.00 or 0.00%; the South China market price remained at 3450, a change of 0.00 or 0.00%.

Rainy weather in North China and parts of Shandong suppressed terminal demand, and the cost side lacked support recently, so the market wait - and - see sentiment was strong. Traders in North China and Shandong continued to lower the shipping price, driving the market average price down. In the East China Zhenjiang area, there were many low - priced resources, which affected the shipments of refineries and traders. In the South China market, the production and sales of the main refineries were relatively stable, and the asphalt price remained stable [5]. - **Shandong Market**: The mainstream transaction price decreased by 5 to 3470 - 3650 yuan/ton. Affected by rainy weather, terminal demand was weak, and the cost side lacked support. The market was pessimistic, and traders continued to lower the shipping price, driving the mainstream transaction center down. In the future, both supply and demand are weak, and the asphalt price may show a weak trend in the short term [5]. - **Yangtze River Delta Market**: The mainstream transaction price remained stable at 3540 - 3550 yuan/ton. Market demand was weak, traders' shipments were small, and both the cost side and the asphalt futures market were weak. The asphalt quotation in Zhenjiang area was about 3370 yuan/ton, and the low - priced resources were 11 contracts + 50 yuan/ton. The market preferred low - priced transactions, and the asphalt price in the region may show a weak trend in the short term [5]. - **South China Market**: The mainstream transaction price remained stable at 3400 - 3530 yuan/ton. Crude oil and futures prices continued to fall, and the market sentiment was pessimistic. The mainstream transaction price of social warehouses in Foshan area remained at about 3340 - 3370 yuan/ton, and the overall transaction was average. In the future, as the weather improves, local market demand will be slowly released, and some main refineries may have maintenance plans, so the spot resources are expected to decrease. However, some refineries have released low - price contracts, and the cost side support is weak. Most downstream users' bearish sentiment remains unchanged, and the local asphalt price will be weakly stable in the short term [6]. 3.3 Related Attachments - The report provides several figures including BU main contract closing price, BU main contract position, East China asphalt market price, Shandong asphalt market price, Shandong refinery gasoline price, and Shandong refinery diesel price, with data sources from Galaxy Futures, Wind, and Steel Union [11][13][15]

Group 1: Report Investment Rating - No information provided on the industry investment rating Group 2: Core Viewpoints - The supply of high - sulfur fuel oil is affected by factors such as the recovery of Russian refineries and the increase in Middle - East exports due to the decline in power - generation demand. The demand side shows that summer power - generation demand has completely subsided, and feedstock demand support is not obvious under the background of high - sulfur cracking decline and low - cost tax reform. High - sulfur near - end inventory at a high level still suppresses market prices. Attention should be paid to the generation of new warehouse receipts and the subsequent inventory digestion rhythm for high - sulfur near - month contracts. [7] - The supply of low - sulfur fuel oil has short - term disturbances. The operation of the Nigerian RFCC device is unstable, and it is reported to have returned in the past two weeks. There is an expected increase in the logistics redirection of low - sulfur heavy raw materials to the Pan - Singapore area due to the conflict between South Sudan and the UAE, but there have been no new tenders since September. The Al - Zour refinery maintains high - level low - sulfur shipments but is affected by the UAE diversion recently. The return of Malaysian refineries increases some low - sulfur straight - run supply. In the Chinese market, the third batch of low - sulfur quotas has been issued, with Sinopec and PetroChina expected to have sufficient quotas in the fourth quarter without increasing production, while CNOOC expects a tight quota. Ship - fuel demand is stable without specific drivers. [7][9] Group 3: Summary by Directory Part 1: Relevant Data - **Futures Prices and Positions**: On October 15, 2025, the price of FU main contract was 2683, down 17 from the previous day; the position was 258,000 lots, up 0.5 lots. The price of LU main contract was 3155, down 48 from the previous day; the position was 66,000 lots, up 0.1 lots. [3] - **Warehouse Receipts**: FU warehouse receipts were 45,800 tons, unchanged from the previous day; LU warehouse receipts were 13,080 tons, unchanged from the previous day. [3] - **Spreads**: FU1 - 5 was 30, unchanged; LU12 - 1 was - 4, down 11; LU - FU main contract spread was 472, down 31; FU01 - outer - market 12 was 9.8, up 0.1; LU12 - outer - market 11 was 9.0, down 0.7. [3] Part 2: Market Judgement - **Important Information**: Russian seaborne crude oil shipments climbed to a 28 - month high in the past four weeks, mainly due to increased production and Ukrainian attacks on refineries, forcing the redirection of crude oil supply to export terminals. [6] - **Market Analysis**: The supply and demand of high - sulfur and low - sulfur fuel oils are affected by multiple factors as described in the core viewpoints. [7][9] Part 3: Relevant Attachments - The report includes figures such as Singapore high - sulfur and low - sulfur spot premiums, high - and low - sulfur spreads, and fuel - oil cracking spreads, with data sources from Galaxy Futures and Reuters.
