Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided in the given text. Core Viewpoints - **Macro**: The US tariff exemption extension is entering its final week, and negotiations with countries like the EU, India, and Mexico are in a tense phase, with uncertainties regarding potential tariff counter - measures. Overseas is in a week of intensive macro - events, including the Fed's interest - rate meeting and key economic data releases. China will hold a Politburo meeting, and attention should be paid to economic work guidance and PMI data to confirm economic recovery. The real estate sales remain at a low level, the service industry is structurally differentiated and has declined due to summer heat, and the manufacturing's rush - to - export phase is ending, posing potential downward pressure on the Q3 economy. However, anti - involution policies are expected to gradually reverse deflation [4]. - **Funds**: Domestic liquidity is generally loose but marginally tightening. Bond market redemptions are flowing into the stock market, providing incremental funds. Overseas financial conditions have improved, with a decline in the real interest rate of US bonds, leading to foreign capital inflows into the domestic stock market. Passive ETF shares are being re - increased, equity financing such as IPOs has cooled, margin trading funds are continuously flowing in, and the pressure of restricted - share unlocks has increased, overall favoring liquidity [4]. - **Valuation**: After a short - term rebound, the valuations of various indices are still at a historically neutral - to - high level. The stock - bond yield spreads at home and abroad have further declined, making the attractiveness of allocation funds average [4]. - **Strategy**: The current valuations of broad - based indices are not cheap, and the foreign - capital risk premium index has dropped to a low level. The pressure of US tariff policies may resurface. Considering that the stock market has prematurely priced in macro - expectations, the market is expected to oscillate, reach a peak, and then correct in the next 1 - 2 weeks when positive factors are realized or fall short of expectations. It is recommended to reduce long positions in stock indices after sharp rallies this week or use out - of - the - money put options to protect against black - swan risks. In terms of style, hold long positions in IC and IM, or conduct an arbitrage strategy of going long on IM and short on IF [4]. Summary by Directory 1.

Liquidity - **Monetary Injection**: Last week, the central bank's OMO reverse - repurchase matured at 1.7268 trillion yuan, with a reverse - repurchase injection of 1.6563 trillion yuan, resulting in a net monetary withdrawal of 7.05 billion yuan. The MLF was injected with 400 billion yuan in July and matured at 300 billion yuan, with continuous monthly net injections for 5 months. Overall, the liquidity supply was neutral but marginally tightening [28]. - **Fund Prices**: The DR007, R001, and SHIBOR overnight rates changed by 14.5bp, 6.4bp, and 5.8bp respectively, reaching 1.65%, 1.55%, and 1.52%. The issuance rate of inter - bank certificates of deposit rebounded by 2.1bp, and the CD rate issued by joint - stock banks rebounded by 4.1bp to 1.67%. The fund supply tightened marginally, debt financing demand declined, but the real - economy financing demand recovered, and the fund prices generally rebounded slightly [34]. - **Term Structure**: Last week, the yields of 10 - year, 5 - year, and 2 - year Treasury bonds changed by 6.7bp, 6bp, and 5.2bp respectively; the yields of 10 - year, 5 - year, and 2 - year China Development Bank bonds changed by 8.9bp, 9.5bp, and 6.6bp respectively. The yield term structure continued to steepen, and the credit spreads between Treasury bonds and China Development Bank bonds widened at both the long and short ends, indicating a return of broad - credit expectations [38]. - **Sino - US Interest Rate Spread**: As of July 25, the US 10 - year Treasury yield changed by - 4.0bp to 4.40%, the inflation expectation changed by 3.0bp to 2.44%, and the real interest rate changed by - 7.00bp to 1.96%. The Sino - US interest rate spread inversion narrowed by 10.79bp to - 266.61bp, and the offshore RMB appreciated by 0.19% [41]. 4. Macroeconomic Fundamentals - **Real Estate Demand**: As of July 24, the weekly trading area of commercial housing in 30 large - and medium - sized cities was 1.531 million square meters, showing a seasonal improvement from the previous week's 1.372 million square meters but still at a relatively low level compared to the same period. Second - hand housing sales declined seasonally, reaching the lowest level in nearly seven years. The real estate market sales generally returned to a low level, and attention should be paid to whether the Politburo meeting will propose signals to boost the real estate market [44]. - **Service Industry Activities**: As of July 25, the daily average subway passenger volume in 28 large - and medium - sized cities dropped significantly to 81.84 million person - times, a 1.2% decrease from the same period last year but a 21.8% increase from 2021. The Baidu congestion delay index of 100 cities decreased slightly from the previous week, indicating that the service industry's economic activities were cooling down [48]. - **Manufacturing Tracking**: Due to the anti - involution policy, the overall capacity utilization rate of the manufacturing industry declined. The capacity utilization rates of steel mills, asphalt, cement clinker enterprises, and coking enterprises changed by - 0.08%, - 4%, - 0.26%, and 0.44% respectively. The average operating rate of the chemical industry chain related to external demand changed by 0.01% from the previous week. Overall, the domestic and foreign demand trends of the manufacturing industry improved marginally, and it has entered the seasonal peak season [52]. - **Goods Flow**: The goods and people flow remained at a relatively high level. The postal express and civil aviation sectors showed a significant weekly decline, while railway transportation rebounded slightly, which may be related to the rush - to - export. There is a risk of a second seasonal decline from August to September [56]. - **Exports**: As the rush - to - export after the Sino - US trade talks is nearing its end, the port cargo throughput and container throughput have increased significantly. There is a risk of a second decline from August to September when the 90 - day tariff exemption period ends [61]. - **Overseas**: With the US Markit manufacturing PMI preliminary value in July falling back into the contraction range and the US durable goods orders data dropping more than expected, the financial market has revised its expectations for the Fed's interest - rate path. The market expects 2 interest rate cuts in 2025, with a reduction of 25 - 50bp, and the probability of a September rate cut has increased to 61.9% [63]. 5. Other Analyses - **Valuation**: The stock - bond risk premium was 3.07%, a 0.15% decrease from the previous week, at the 58.5% quantile. The foreign - capital risk premium index was 3.99%, a 0.05% decrease from the previous week, at the 21.2% quantile.

The growth style is relatively dominant, and the cyclical style first rises and then falls. There are opportunities to go long on IC and IM on pullbacks and short on IF and IH on sharp rallies [74]. - **Financial Calendar**: China will release July's manufacturing and service industry PMI and industrial enterprise profits, which will help confirm economic recovery. Overseas, attention should be paid to the US non - farm payroll report, job vacancies, manufacturing PMI, PCE inflation data, and the Fed's interest - rate meeting [76].

Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the report Core Views - Fundamentally, the Fed's policy shift to easing after its June meeting minutes, with most expecting two rate cuts this year and a high probability in September, boosts precious metal prices. Trade tensions and tariff policies increase the demand and safe - haven premium for gold, while silver benefits from strong industrial demand and financial attributes due to a 50% tariff on copper and Fed rate - cut expectations [2]. - In terms of capital, last week, COMEX gold and silver inventories declined, global gold reserves continued to rise, China's central bank increased gold holdings for the eighth consecutive month, ETF fund inflows into gold and silver slowed, and hedge funds increased their long - position in gold [2]. - For strategies, the price of Shanghai gold is long - term bullish, with short - term high - level oscillations. Mid - term, it is recommended to hold long positions or buy low and sell high. Shanghai silver shows a slight short - term increase, and mid - term, it is advisable to hold long positions or buy when it dips to the lower edge of the oscillation range [2]. Summaries by Directory 1. Market Review - **Price and Position Changes**: The spot price of London gold increased by 0.61%, COMEX gold futures by 0.71%, while the Shanghai gold main contract decreased by 0.33%. The spot price of London silver rose by 1.67%, COMEX silver futures by 5.22%, and the Shanghai silver main contract by 1.36%. COMEX gold and silver inventories decreased by 0.10% and 0.87% respectively. COMEX gold total positions increased by 1.25%, and speculative net long positions by 0.49%. COMEX silver total positions decreased by 0.47%, and speculative net long positions by 7.70% [5]. - **Gold - Silver Ratio**: Both the domestic and foreign gold - silver ratios decreased last week, approaching 80 but still significantly higher than the long - term average of 60 - 70, indicating that the silver price is undervalued. The 50% tariff on copper may increase silver demand, and the silver price has upward potential [8]. - **Domestic - Foreign Price Spread**: The domestic - foreign price spreads of gold and silver narrowed last week. Affected by US tariff policies, market risk - aversion sentiment increased, and precious metal prices were boosted [9]. 2. Macroeconomic Factors - **US Dollar Index**: The US dollar index rebounded slightly after hitting a low but remained below 98. A stronger US dollar exerts some upward pressure on precious metals, while trade tensions support precious metal prices [13]. - **US Treasury Real Yields**: The real yields of 5 - year and 10 - year US Treasuries increased last week. Market expectations of a looser Fed policy provide a lower - bound support for precious metal prices [14]. - **Inflation and Fed Rate - Cut Expectations**: In May, the rebound of commodity inflation was lower than expected. The Fed's internal views on tariff - driven inflation are divided, and most expect at least two rate cuts by the end of the year, which supports precious metal prices [19]. - **US Key Economic Data**: In June, the US ISM manufacturing PMI was 49, and the service PMI was 50.8, both better than expected. Retail and food service sales declined year - on - year. The core PCE price index in May increased by 2.7% year - on - year, the PCE price index by 2.3%, and CPI inflation remained stable.

In Q1 2025, global central banks net - bought 244 tons of gold. China's central bank has increased gold holdings for eight consecutive months, and central bank gold - buying supports precious metal prices [29]. - **Fed June Meeting Minutes**: There were significant differences among participants regarding the impact of tariffs on inflation. Most expect at least two rate cuts by the end of the year, with a high probability in September [30]. - **Tariff Policy**: Trump postponed the implementation of "reciprocal tariffs" to August 1. The US sent tariff letters to trading partners, with a 50% tariff on Brazilian products. The 50% tariff on copper provides an opportunity for silver to make up for lost ground [31]. 3. Position Analysis - **Hedge Fund Positions**: As of July 8, 2025, CMX gold speculative net long positions increased by 10,000 lots to 203,000 lots, while CMX silver speculative net long positions decreased by 49,000 lots to 58,500 lots [34]. - **ETF Positions**: As of July 11, 2025, the SPDR gold ETF holdings decreased by 0.02 tons to 947.64 tons, and the SLV silver ETF holdings decreased by 110.22 tons to 14,758.52 tons.

玉米周报:7月USDA报告中性偏空,国内玉米继续承压-20250714
Zheng Xin Qi Huo· 2025-07-14 12:58
Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2. Core Viewpoints - The July USDA report is slightly bearish, and the domestic corn market continues to face pressure. The US corn market is expected to remain in a state of bumper harvest, which will suppress the US corn futures market. In the domestic market, the wheat price is supported by state reserve purchases, but the continuous auction of imported corn and increased supply are dragging down the spot price. In the medium to long term, there may be a supply - demand gap in the third quarter, but the supply pressure will be high in the fourth quarter, so the corn price may rise first and then fall [1][6]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Main Views - This week, the corn price continued to decline. In the US market, the July USDA report showed a decrease in the expected corn production, consumption, and ending inventory. The good harvest outlook will keep the US corn futures market under pressure. In the domestic market, the end of the wheat harvest and state reserve purchases support the wheat price. The corn market is in the off - season, and the continuous auction of imported corn and increased supply at processing enterprises are pressuring the spot price. In terms of demand, feed enterprises have sufficient inventory, and the off - season for livestock and processing industries restricts demand.

Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core Viewpoints - This week, cotton prices fluctuated. The July USDA report on U.S. cotton was moderately bearish, causing U.S. cotton to fluctuate weakly. In China, the commercial cotton inventory is continuously being consumed, and imports are low. However, downstream demand is in the off - season, resulting in a situation of weak supply and demand, making it difficult for cotton prices to improve. The Xinjiang new - season cotton is in the full - bloom stage, and the soil moisture is acceptable, with the recent high - temperature situation in the production area having eased. The strategy is that the USDA report suppresses U.S. cotton, while the rapid inventory reduction in China supports the futures market to fluctuate strongly. But weak downstream demand, increased new - season planting area, and the expected alleviation of high - temperature in Xinjiang will limit the increase of Zhengzhou cotton prices [6]. Summary by Directory 1. Main Views - This week, cotton fluctuated. The July USDA report on U.S. cotton was moderately bearish, with increased planting area, decreased yield per unit, increased production, unchanged total consumption, and increased ending inventory. Globally, cotton production and ending inventory increased slightly. In China, supply and demand are both weak, with continuous consumption of commercial inventory and low imports. The new - season cotton in Xinjiang is in the full - bloom stage, and the high - temperature has eased. The USDA report suppresses U.S. cotton, while rapid inventory reduction in China supports the futures market, but weak downstream demand and other factors will limit the increase of Zhengzhou cotton prices [6]. 2.

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content found Group 2: Core Viewpoints of the Report - Last week, the trends of oils and fats diverged. The centers of soybean and palm oils moved up, while rapeseed oil declined. The USDA July report reflected the impact on US biodiesel and foreign tariffs. The consumption of US biodiesel from soybean oil was increased, soybean crushing was up, exports were down, and inventory was up. The new crop growth was good, and CBOT soybeans were under pressure. In June, Malaysian palm oil production decreased as expected, but the unexpected drop in exports led to a slight inventory build - up. High - frequency data showed that Malaysian palm oil production resumed growth in early July, and BMD crude palm oil fluctuated. Operationally, the market traded on the decline in June Malaysian palm oil production last week, and both domestic and foreign palm oils continued their strong trend. However, the increase in July production limited its short - term upside. Seek long - term long opportunities on dips [7]. Group 3: Summary of Each Section in the Table of Contents 1. Main Views - Last week, the trends of oils and fats diverged. In the producing areas, the MPOB report showed that Malaysian palm oil production and exports in June decreased by 4.48% and 10.52% respectively, and inventory increased by 2.41%. In early July, Malaysian palm oil production increased by 35% and exports increased by 5 - 12%. The USDA report adjusted the 25/26 US soybean exports, crushing, and inventory. In China, the weekly trading volume of soybean and palm oils was average. New palm oil purchase contracts were added, and soybean oil inventory reached 102 tons while palm oil inventory stopped increasing. The strategy is to seek long - term long opportunities on dips as the short - term upside of palm oil is limited by the increase in July production [7]. 2. Market Review - Last week, US soybeans tested the 1000 mark, the centers of domestic and foreign palm oils moved up, Dalian soybean oil stopped falling and rebounded, and Zhengzhou rapeseed oil's center of gravity moved down [9]. 3.

Report Information - Report Name: Zhengxin Futures Egg Weekly Report 2025-7-14 [2] - Research Group: Zhengxin Futures Research Institute - Agricultural Products Research Group [2] Industry Investment Rating - Overall Rating: Oscillating [3] Core Viewpoints - Supply: National egg spot prices have generally risen recently. The traditional price increase from July to August is driven by factors such as accelerated chicken culling during the rainy season, Mid-Autumn Festival stockpiling, and decreased egg production due to high temperatures. However, this year's Mid-Autumn Festival is close to National Day, and the limited industry losses have led to insufficient capacity reduction. The seasonal rebound is expected to be delayed and limited in amplitude [3]. - Demand: This week, the sales volume in the main sales areas increased slightly, the shipping volume in the main production areas fluctuated slightly, and the inventory in the circulation and production links decreased significantly. As the rainy season nears its end, the egg storage conditions have improved, the purchasing意愿 of egg merchants has increased, and the sales speed and trading volume in the sales areas have increased [3]. - Profit: The breeding profit has continued to decline, significantly lower than the comprehensive cost, and at the lowest level in the same period in the past four years. This week, the egg basis decreased slightly, and the premium of the near-month futures contract is at a historical high [3]. - Price and Volume: Currently, the spread between the near and far futures contracts of eggs has decreased slightly and is at a moderately high level. From the perspective of positions, the institutional positions of the main egg futures contract show a net short and oscillating state [3]. - Strategy: The premium of the near-month contract is at a historical high, and the near end faces significant spot selling pressure. The far end is expected to gradually improve as the capacity reduction expectation strengthens. Before the capacity is cleared due to breeding profit losses, the pattern of weak near and strong far in the egg futures is expected to continue. Operationally, considering that the spread between the near and far futures contracts is at a relatively high level, 9 - 11 and 9 - 12 reverse spreads can still be considered [3].
