Macro factors are generally favorable to copper prices. On the fundamental side, intensified disturbances in the mining end increased the expectation of copper ore shortage, supporting copper prices. Recently, the improvement in market risk appetite and the resonance of macro and micro factors jointly drove up the center of copper prices. Currently at the tail of risk pricing, copper prices are expected to be strong in the short - term. The strategy is to expect a volatile and upward trend, and recommend buying on dips [10]. 3.

Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided in the content. Core Viewpoints of the Report - A-share market: Consider a strategy of buying on dips for stock index futures, and pay attention to index rotation. For Treasury bond futures, expect a volatile upward trend and focus on the odds of short-term bonds [9][10]. - Black commodities: May experience a volatile adjustment, with a mid-term outlook of overall volatility. For coal and coke, prices may continue to fluctuate strongly in the short term. For ferroalloys, a mid-term bearish view remains. For soda ash and glass, consider taking short-term profits on soda ash shorts and adopt a wait-and-see approach for glass [12][13][14]. - Non-ferrous metals and new materials: For aluminum, follow the upward trend overseas but with limited domestic follow - up strength, so it is advisable to wait and see. For alumina, consider shorting on rallies. Lithium carbonate is expected to fluctuate strongly in the short term. Industrial silicon and polysilicon are expected to fluctuate within a range [20][21][22]. - Agricultural products: For cotton, consider shorting on rallies. For sugar, the supply - demand situation is bearish, and consider short - term rolling operations or waiting and seeing. For eggs, operate with a volatile mindset. For apples, expect a volatile and upward trend. For corn, consider shorting the 01 contract or selling out - of - the - money call options on the 01 contract. For red dates, consider shorting on rallies. For live pigs, expect short - term price volatility [24][26][28]. - Energy and chemicals: Crude oil is expected to face a situation of oversupply and is prone to decline. Fuel oil prices will follow crude oil prices. Plastics are expected to fluctuate weakly. Rubber is expected to fluctuate without a clear trend. Methanol is expected to fluctuate strongly. Caustic soda is expected to fluctuate. Asphalt is expected to trend strongly. Pulp is expected to be observed for port de - stocking and spot transactions. Logs are expected to have a weak - oscillating fundamental situation. Urea is expected to fluctuate. Synthetic rubber offers opportunities for short - term long positions on pullbacks [37][38][39]. Summary by Directory Macroeconomic News - Sino - US economic and trade consultations were held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and basic consensus was reached on resolving respective concerns [4]. - President Xi Jinping will attend the 32nd APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting in South Korea and conduct a state visit. The two sides are in close communication about a possible meeting between the Chinese and US presidents [4]. - The "15th Five - Year Plan" is expected to bring about a new market space of about 10 trillion yuan in the next 5 years, and recreate China's high - tech industry in the next 10 years. It is also expected to generate over 5 trillion yuan in new investment demand for underground pipeline construction and renovation during the "15th Five - Year Plan" period [4]. - US inflation data in September was lower than expected, and the market has fully priced in two 25 - basis - point interest rate cuts by the Fed within the year [4]. - Premier Li Qiang will attend a series of meetings in Malaysia [4]. - The central bank will continue to implement a moderately loose monetary policy, strengthen financial supervision, and promote high - level two - way financial opening [4]. - The China Securities Regulatory Commission will deepen comprehensive investment and financing reforms and strengthen the resilience and anti - risk ability of the capital market [4]. - Industry associations in logistics, non - ferrous metals, etc. have launched initiatives to resist "involution" - style competition [4]. - The US manufacturing and service PMIs in October showed an upward trend, while consumer confidence declined [4][5]. Stock Index Futures - A - shares opened higher and closed higher on Friday, with technology stocks leading the gains. The Sino - US talks may boost risk appetite, and the trading volume in the A - share market has rebounded. It is recommended to continue considering a strategy of buying on dips and pay attention to index rotation [9]. Treasury Bond Futures - The capital market is in a balanced and loose state. Affected by the Sino - US talks, risk appetite has increased, and bond prices have been suppressed. The central bank's net injection of 200 billion yuan through MLF in October is noted. It is expected that the monetary policy will be further loosened in the fourth quarter, and a volatile upward trend is expected for Treasury bond futures, with attention to the odds of short - term bonds [10]. Black Commodities - **Overall**: The black commodity market may experience a volatile adjustment, with a mid - term outlook of overall volatility. Policy expectations have cooled, and the market is focusing on real - world performance. The real demand for steel products in the fourth - quarter peak season has limited improvement, and there are concerns about negative feedback risks from supply and demand [12][13]. - **Coal and Coke**: Prices may continue to fluctuate strongly in the short term. Supply is gradually recovering, but there are still expectations of "anti - involution", environmental protection restrictions, and safety inspections. The potential negative feedback risk from the steel industry may limit the upside of coal and coke prices [14]. - **Ferroalloys**: A mid - term bearish view remains. The industry's over - supply situation is difficult to reverse in the short term, and the market is under pressure from industrial hedging and market allocation funds [15]. - **Soda Ash and Glass**: For soda ash, consider taking short - term profits on shorts. For glass, adopt a wait - and - see approach. The supply of soda ash has increased, and the supply - demand contradiction is difficult to resolve. The glass market is affected by the decline in the futures price, and the mid - stream inventory is relatively high [16][18]. Non - Ferrous Metals and New Materials - **Aluminum and Alumina**: Aluminum may follow the upward trend overseas, but domestic follow - up strength is limited, so it is advisable to wait and see. Alumina has a large supply surplus pressure, and it is recommended to short on rallies [20]. - **Lithium Carbonate**: Expected to fluctuate strongly in the short term due to strong demand and short - term supply approaching its peak [21]. - **Industrial Silicon and Polysilicon**: Industrial silicon is expected to fluctuate weakly within a range, and polysilicon is expected to fluctuate narrowly within a range [22][23]. Agricultural Products - **Cotton**: Supply pressure is increasing, and demand is weak. Consider shorting on rallies. The international cotton market is affected by trade tariffs and the US government shutdown, while the domestic market is supported by cost but limited by supply pressure [24][25]. - **Sugar**: The global sugar market is facing a large supply surplus. Domestically, the supply is gradually increasing, and the price is under pressure from imports. Consider short - term rolling operations or waiting and seeing [26][27]. - **Eggs**: The egg - laying hen industry is in a "capacity reduction" process, and the futures market is showing strength. However, the supply - demand pattern remains loose, and the upside of the spot price may be limited. Operate with a volatile mindset [28][29]. - **Apples**: Expected to fluctuate strongly. The prices in the western producing areas are firm, and the late - maturing Fuji apples are gradually coming onto the market. Pay attention to the price changes, storage progress, and purchasing sentiment of merchants [30][31]. - **Corn**: Consider shorting the 01 contract or selling out - of - the - money call options on the 01 contract. The corn market is facing phased supply pressure, and pay attention to the new grain sales progress and the release rhythm of policy - supported wheat [32]. - **Red Dates**: Consider shorting on rallies. The market price is stable, but there is an expectation of a decline in the opening price [33]. - **Live Pigs**: The supply - demand situation is in a stalemate, and the spot price is expected to fluctuate in the short term. Pay attention to the end - of - month slaughter rhythm of large - scale enterprises [33]. Energy and Chemicals - **Crude Oil**: Supply is expected to increase, and demand may be suppressed. The supply - demand contradiction of oversupply is expected to become more prominent, and the price is prone to decline [37]. - **Fuel Oil**: Prices will follow crude oil prices, and the short - term trading focus is on the supply concerns after the sanctions on Russia [38]. - **Plastics**: Polyolefins have a large supply pressure and are expected to fluctuate weakly. After a recent rebound, the upward momentum is insufficient [39]. - **Rubber**: Has no obvious trend and is mainly fluctuating. The cost is supported by rising upstream raw material prices, and pay attention to the raw material supply in the producing areas and macro - economic impacts [40]. - **Methanol**: The market is volatile due to the uncertainty of Iranian imports. Although the supply is large, there are supply - side disturbances. Consider a strategy of waiting for a rebound and then making a small - scale long - position allocation [41]. - **Caustic Soda**: Has a downward driving force due to weak spot prices but is supported by coal costs. Maintain a volatile mindset [42]. - **Asphalt**: The price trend is strong, and the focus is on the raw material concerns caused by the US military threat to Venezuela. The current demand is in the peak season, and the inventory reduction speed is normal [43]. - **Polyester Industry Chain**: Affected by the improvement in the macro - environment, it may be stronger in the short term. However, the fundamentals of PTA and ethylene glycol are still weak [45]. - **Liquefied Petroleum Gas**: The short - term trend is strong, but the supply is abundant. The demand from the blending market may weaken, and pay attention to the development of Sino - US trade negotiations [46]. - **Paper Pulp**: The macro - sentiment has improved, and the fundamentals are relatively stable. Observe the port de - stocking and spot transactions, and consider establishing long positions on the 01 contract if the spot price is stable [46]. - **Logs**: The fundamentals are weakly fluctuating, with stable downstream demand and cost support. Consider taking long positions on the 01 contract on dips [48]. - **Urea**: The supply - demand situation has improved, but the futures price is at a premium to the spot price. Maintain a volatile mindset [49]. - **Synthetic Rubber**: There are opportunities for short - term long positions on pullbacks, but the upward pressure is large, so be cautious about chasing the market [50].

Report Title - Weekly Report on Polypropylene Industry Chain of Zhongtai Futures, October 26, 2025 [1] Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Core Viewpoint - The polypropylene market is under significant supply - demand pressure and will continue to fluctuate weakly [1] Summary by Directory 1. Recent Market Main Contradictions - Not provided 2. Polypropylene Supply - Demand Situation Supply - This week, due to more maintenance devices, the national polypropylene production decreased slightly from 80.10 million tons last week to 77.76 million tons, with a decrease of 2.34 million tons. In the next two weeks, as device maintenance decreases, production is likely to remain around 80 million tons. The maintenance loss this week was 21.70 million tons, an increase of 5.68 million tons compared to last week. The import and export volumes remained stable at 6.60 million tons for imports and 5.40 million tons for exports per week. In September, 2.9 billion tons were imported and 2.376 billion tons were exported [6]. - Many new polypropylene devices were put into production in 2024 and 2025. In 2024, the total new production capacity was 4.25 billion tons, and in 2025, it is expected to be 5.35 billion tons [20][21]. Demand - Downstream demand is currently not very good, and there is no accurate data for calculation [42]. Inventory - This week, there was a slight reduction in inventory. The total inventory decreased from 98.52 million tons last week to 92.53 million tons, a decrease of 5.99 million tons. It is expected to continue to reduce slightly next week. Upstream and mid - stream inventories also decreased slightly [6]. 3. Polypropylene Basis and Spread Basis - The basis overall showed a weakening trend. The East China basis decreased from - 50 last week to - 113 this week, the North China basis decreased from - 50 to - 140, and the South China basis decreased from - 50 to - 140. The basis opportunities are limited [8]. Spread - The inter - month spread fluctuated. For example, the 1 - 5 month spread decreased from - 52 to - 57. The spread between pellet and powder is too narrow, which has a certain supporting effect on pellet prices. The PP - 3MA spread on the 01 contract decreased from - 265 to - 154, and attention should be paid to the opportunity of shorting PP and going long on MA. The LL - PP spread on the 01 contract decreased from 323 to 307, and there are few short - term opportunities [8]. 4. Summary and Outlook Upper, Middle, and Lower Reaches Views - Upstream: Although currently in the peak maintenance period, the overall supply is still relatively sufficient, and the main idea is to actively sell goods. Despite low production profits, the upstream operating rate remains at a relatively high level without large - scale load reduction [10]. - Middle: The shipping situation has slightly deteriorated. After the rebound of the futures market, the shipping situation of spot - futures arbitrageurs has worsened [10]. - Lower: The replenishment willingness has decreased, and currently, the focus is on digesting previous inventories [10]. Strategy - Unilateral: Weakly fluctuating - Option: Selling call options strategy [10]

1. Report Industry Investment Ratings No specific industry investment ratings are provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - **Macro - economic and Policy**: The Fourth Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee proposed major goals for economic and social development during the "15th Five - Year Plan" period. Macroeconomic policies are expected to continue to exert force, and there is a need to actively and steadily resolve local government debt risks. Fiscal policy may enter a bottleneck, while monetary policy is likely to be further loosened in the fourth quarter [6][9]. - **Stock and Bond Markets**: For stock index futures, a strategy of buying on dips can be considered, paying attention to index rotation. For treasury bond futures, an upward - trending and volatile strategy is recommended, focusing on the odds of short - term bonds [9][10]. - **Commodity Markets**: Different commodities have different trends. For example, in the black metal market, steel and ore are expected to be volatile in the medium - term; in the energy and chemical market, crude oil may rebound in the short - term but will be based on fundamentals in the long - term [13][37]. 3. Summary by Directory Macro - financial - **Stock Index Futures**: A strategy of buying on dips can be continued, paying attention to index rotation. The A - share market was affected by the Fourth Plenary Session and the Sino - US talks in Malaysia. The market is expected to see continuous efforts from macro - policies [9]. - **Treasury Bond Futures**: An upward - trending and volatile strategy is recommended, focusing on the odds of short - term bonds. The market was also affected by the Fourth Plenary Session and the Sino - US talks. Fiscal policy may face a bottleneck, and monetary policy is likely to be loosened [10]. Black Metals - **Steel and Ore**: Steel and ore are expected to be volatile in the medium - term. Iron ore short positions can be reduced on dips. Demand for building materials is weak, while demand for rolled plates is mixed. Raw material costs are volatile, and there is a risk of negative feedback if demand is poor [13]. - **Coking Coal and Coke**: The prices of coking coal and coke may continue to be volatile and strong in the short - term. Supply is gradually recovering, but there are still expectations of "anti - involution", environmental protection, and safety inspections. The demand for finished products during the "Golden September and Silver October" needs to be observed [15]. - **Ferroalloys**: The medium - term outlook for ferrosilicon and silicomanganese is bearish. The 23rd saw the ferrosilicon 01 contract rise to 5570 yuan/ton and the silicomanganese 01 contract rise to 5820 yuan/ton, affected by coking coal sentiment [16]. - **Soda Ash and Glass**: For soda ash, a bearish strategy can be short - term profitable. For glass, a wait - and - see approach is recommended. The supply of soda ash is at a high level, and the inventory of glass has increased [17][18]. Non - ferrous Metals and New Materials - **Aluminum and Alumina**: Aluminum prices are expected to be volatile at a high level, and a wait - and - see approach is recommended. Alumina prices are expected to continue to decline, and shorting on rallies when the price is at a premium is advisable [20]. - **Zinc**: Domestic zinc inventories have decreased. The price of zinc can be temporarily observed. Overseas LME zinc inventories continue to decline, and the spot premium has risen rapidly [21]. - **Lithium Carbonate**: Short - term supply disruptions and strong demand support the price, and it is expected to be volatile and strong in the short - term [22]. - **Industrial Silicon and Polysilicon**: Industrial silicon is expected to be volatile and weak in a range. Polysilicon will continue to be volatile in a narrow range, with the lower limit supported by spot prices and the upper limit depending on the implementation of capacity merger policies [23]. Agricultural Products - **Cotton**: A strategy of shorting on rallies is recommended. Supply pressure is increasing, and demand is weak.
