Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No investment rating information is provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoint Affected by the military parade, iron - water production decreased, leading to a decline in steel production, especially in hot - rolled production. During the military parade, construction sites and rolling mills in some northern regions stopped working, causing a week - on - week weakening of demand, with a significant drop in hot - rolled apparent consumption. Both rebar and hot - rolled steel inventories continued to accumulate. The supply and demand of the five major steel products both decreased, and inventory accumulation maintained a relatively fast pace, showing a weak fundamental situation. Recently, steel inventories have been continuously accumulating, the fundamentals are weak, and the market's expectations for peak - season demand are relatively conservative, putting pressure on the market. However, after the military parade, iron - water production may return to a relatively high level. Meanwhile, steel circulation indicates that vehicle traffic in mountainous areas is gradually resuming, and some construction sites and rolling mills will gradually resume work. Attention should be paid to the phased restocking demand after the military parade during the peak season, which may support the futures prices [3]. 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The report does not explicitly provide an overall industry investment rating. However, it gives individual outlooks for each product, including "oscillating weakly", "oscillating", "oscillating strongly", etc. [9][10][11] 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - OPEC+ will comprehensively review the current situation before deciding on future production. The market is concerned about the potential increase in production, which has led to a decline in oil prices. Economic data also shows a cooling labor market in the US. [2] - Most chemical products are dragged down by the decline in crude oil prices. The polyester chain and oil products have significant drops. PTA and MEG are expected to de - stock in September but may re - stock from October to December. Methanol, despite high port inventories, has a strong recent trend due to external procurement by olefin enterprises. [3] - Investors should approach the oil - chemical industry with an oscillating mindset and wait for the implementation of specific policies to address over - competition in the Chinese petrochemical industry. [4] 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Market News and Main Logic of Each Product 3.1.1 Crude Oil - **Viewpoint**: Concerns about production increases have resurfaced, and oil prices are seen as weakly oscillating. - **Market News**: OPEC+ may consider further increasing oil production in the Sunday meeting. US API and EIA inventory data show mixed trends. Trump may talk with Putin and hinted at imposing more sanctions on Russia. - **Main Logic**: The OPEC+ production policy on September 7 remains uncertain, and the expectation of supply surplus in the fourth quarter is hard to disprove. US commercial crude inventories increased, and refinery demand weakened. [9] 3.1.2 Asphalt - **Viewpoint**: With the decline of crude oil, asphalt has fallen below the important threshold of 3,500 yuan/ton. - **Main Logic**: The market refocused on negative factors such as tariff hikes and OPEC+ production increases. The premium of asphalt has decreased, and demand remains pessimistic. [10] 3.1.3 High - Sulfur Fuel Oil - **Viewpoint**: The price of high - sulfur fuel oil has followed the decline of crude oil. - **Main Logic**: Negative factors such as tariff hikes and OPEC+ production increases have affected the market. Although there is geopolitical premium in some regions, the feedstock demand for high - sulfur fuel oil has decreased, and the three driving forces supporting high - sulfur fuel oil are weakening. [11] 3.1.4 Low - Sulfur Fuel Oil - **Viewpoint**: Low - sulfur fuel oil has fallen sharply following crude oil. - **Main Logic**: It follows the oscillation of crude oil. Low - sulfur fuel oil faces multiple negative factors such as a decline in shipping demand, green energy substitution, and high - sulfur substitution, and its supply is expected to increase while demand decreases. [12] 3.1.5 PX - **Viewpoint**: There is insufficient cost support, and there is a game between differentiated expectations and tight supply - demand. - **Main Logic**: Crude oil prices have oscillated downward, weakening cost support. The market focus has shifted from short - term tight supply - demand to long - term inventory accumulation expectations. Fundamentally, supply is stable and demand is increasing, with limited inventory pressure. [13] 3.1.6 PTA - **Viewpoint**: Poor downstream procurement enthusiasm and pessimistic expectations have led to a price plunge. - **Main Logic**: Upstream cost support is insufficient, and market sentiment has been affected by new device commissioning news. Fundamentally, supply has decreased and demand is stable, but polyester factories' procurement enthusiasm is low due to pessimistic expectations. [13] 3.1.7 Pure Benzene - **Viewpoint**: The port will return to inventory accumulation, and the price of pure benzene will oscillate weakly. - **Main Logic**: More naphtha buyers are seeking October shipments, and the supply of naphtha is expected to tighten. Pure benzene imports are increasing, and it is expected to start accumulating inventory next week. The demand of downstream products has not improved significantly. [14] 3.1.8 Styrene - **Viewpoint**: The decline has slowed, and the market is oscillating. - **Main Logic**: The decline is mainly due to the weakening of anti - over - competition sentiment in the energy - chemical sector and the black commodity market. The inventory of styrene is at a high level in the past five years, and the demand of downstream products is weak. [15] 3.1.9 Ethylene Glycol (MEG) - **Viewpoint**: There is a game between low - inventory support and differentiated expectations. - **Main Logic**: The price is oscillating at a low level. Although there are expectations of future inventory accumulation, the current inventory is at a historical low, and the possibility of continuous inventory accumulation is small. [16] 3.1.10 Short - Fiber - **Viewpoint**: The sales performance is mediocre, and the sustainability of the peak season is questionable. - **Main Logic**: The upstream market has oscillated downward, and cost support is insufficient. Fundamentally, supply is stable and demand is weak, production and sales have declined again, and industry inventories are accumulating. [18] 3.1.11 Polyester Bottle Chips - **Viewpoint**: With upstream cost concessions, the processing fee has limited self - driving force for repair. - **Main Logic**: The upstream cost performance is poor, and the price is significantly dragged down by costs. The processing fee of bottle chips has been passively repaired, but the overall repair strength is limited due to weak self - driving force. [19] 3.1.12 Methanol - **Viewpoint**: There are still overseas disturbance expectations in the far - month, and the methanol price is oscillating. - **Main Logic**: On September 4, the methanol price oscillated. The inventory in the inland area is at a relatively low level year - on - year. Recently, the far - month shutdown expectation has disturbed the market. The downstream olefin fundamentals have limited support. [22] 3.1.13 Urea - **Viewpoint**: The market is weakly stable, and after the Indian tender is announced, it is expected to oscillate strongly. - **Main Logic**: After the Indian NFL urea import tender news was announced, although the price is lower than the previous round, it is still expected to be positive. [23] 3.1.14 LLDPE (Plastic) - **Viewpoint**: Oil prices continue to decline, and LLDPE is oscillating. - **Main Logic**: Oil prices have declined, and there are uncertainties in geopolitical situations. The measures to address over - capacity in the domestic petrochemical industry have limited actual support. The macro - economic support in the "Golden September and Silver October" is limited, and the self - fundamentals of LLDPE are still under pressure. [27] 3.1.15 PP - **Viewpoint**: Pay attention to the support strength at the previous low, and PP is oscillating. - **Main Logic**: The supply of PP is still increasing, and there is inventory pressure in the upstream and mid - stream. Oil prices are declining in the short - term, and there are geopolitical uncertainties. The measures to address over - capacity in the domestic petrochemical industry have a neutral impact. The PP price is approaching the previous low, and the support strength needs to be observed. [29] 3.1.16 PL - **Viewpoint**: PL follows the short - term fluctuations of PP. - **Main Logic**: The enterprise inventory is controllable, and the market is mainly stable. The downstream demand is based on low - price procurement, and the trading volume is limited. The PP - PL processing fee is the focus of the market, and the current range of 500 - 600 is relatively reasonable. [29] 3.1.17 PVC - **Viewpoint**: Weak reality suppresses PVC, and it is running weakly. - **Main Logic**: At the macro - level, domestic anti - over - competition policies have not been implemented, and the probability of overseas interest rate cuts has increased. At the micro - level, PVC fundamentals are under pressure, with cost reduction, production decline in September due to autumn inspections, stable downstream start - up, uncertain export expectations, and weakening raw material prices. [33] 3.1.18 Caustic Soda - **Viewpoint**: The spot price has temporarily peaked, and the market is cautiously weak. - **Main Logic**: At the macro - level, domestic anti - over - competition policies have not been implemented, and the probability of overseas interest rate cuts has increased. At the micro - level, the fundamentals have marginally improved, with increased alumina replenishment demand, improved non - aluminum start - up, increased export orders, and reduced production due to inspections. [34] 3.2 Variety Data Monitoring 3.2.1 Energy - Chemical Daily Indicator Monitoring - **Inter - period Spreads**: Different products have different inter - period spread values and changes, such as Brent (M1 - M2: 0.4, - 0.04), Dubai (M1 - M2: 0.81, - 0.06), etc. [36] - **Basis and Warehouse Receipts**: Each product has corresponding basis values, changes, and warehouse receipt quantities, such as asphalt (basis: 72, change: 72; warehouse receipts: 69400), etc. [37] - **Inter - Variety Spreads**: There are various inter - variety spread values and changes, such as 1 - month PP - 3MA (- 195, - 3), etc. [38] 3.2.2 Chemical Basis and Spread Monitoring - The report mentions the monitoring of multiple products such as methanol, urea, styrene, etc., but specific data details are not fully presented. [39][52][64] 3.3 Market Indexes - **Comprehensive Indexes**: The commodity index, commodity 20 index, and industrial product index all showed declines on September 4, 2025, with declines of 0.33%, 0.34%, and 0.36% respectively. [280] - **Energy Index**: On September 4, 2025, the energy index was 1192.96, with a daily decline of 2.27%, a 5 - day decline of 1.32%, a 1 - month decline of 3.82%, and a year - to - date decline of 2.85%.

Report Industry Investment Ratings - **Oils and Fats**: Expected to be volatile in the short term and likely to strengthen in the medium term [5] - **Protein Meal**: Expected to remain range - bound [5] - **Corn and Starch**: Short - term: Consider closing out short positions and look for short - selling opportunities on rebounds; Long - term: Support for low - buying in far - month contracts [6][7] - **Hogs**: Expected to be volatile. Spot and near - month prices are likely to be weak, while far - month contracts are supported by de - capacity expectations [1][7] - **Natural Rubber**: Expected to be volatile and slightly bullish in the short term [10] - **Synthetic Rubber**: Expected to be volatile and slightly bullish in the short term [11] - **Cotton**: Short - term: Range - bound; After new cotton is on the market: May face downward pressure [11][12] - **Sugar**: Expected to be volatile and slightly bearish in the long term; Short - term: Range - bound between 5500 - 5750 [15] - **Pulp**: Expected to be volatile [16] - **Logs**: Expected to be weak in the near term and stronger in the far term [18] 2. Core Views of the Report - The agricultural market shows a complex pattern with different trends for various products. The hog cycle is still in a downward phase in the short - to - medium term but may turn around in 2026 if de - capacity policies are implemented. Oils and fats are affected by factors such as weather, trade, and demand, with short - term volatility and medium - term upward potential. Protein meal is expected to remain range - bound. Other products like natural rubber, cotton, etc., also have their own supply - demand and market factors influencing their price trends [1][5] 3. Summary by Related Catalogs 3.1 Oils and Fats - **Logic**: Due to concerns about US soybean demand, US soybeans declined on Wednesday, and domestic oils continued to consolidate. The macro environment includes a weaker US dollar and falling crude oil prices. The US soybean growing area is affected by drought, and the export outlook is pessimistic. Domestic soybean imports are expected to decrease seasonally, and palm oil inventory accumulation may be limited. Rapeseed oil inventory is slowly falling but still high year - on - year [5] - **Outlook**: Short - term: Volatile adjustment; Medium - term: Likely to strengthen [5] 3.2 Protein Meal - **Logic**: International soybean prices are affected by weather, with a possible reduction in US soybean yields in the September report. Brazilian soybean premiums have adjusted, and US soybean exports are affected by the trade war. Domestically, the market is range - bound, and demand may improve as the temperature drops [5] - **Outlook**: Range - bound. Hold long positions at 2900 - 2910 and add positions on dips. Oil mills are advised to sell on rallies, and downstream enterprises can buy basis contracts or price at low levels [5] 3.3 Corn and Starch - **Logic**: Corn prices are generally stable, with local declines. Supply is affected by the release of old - crop inventory and the upcoming new - crop supply. Demand is weak as feed enterprises have sufficient inventory. The price difference between corn and wheat is increasing, and wheat substitution may decline [6][7] - **Outlook**: Short - term: Close out short positions and look for short - selling opportunities on rebounds; Long - term: Support for low - buying in far - month contracts [6][7] 3.4 Hogs - **Logic**: Supply is abundant in the short term, with an expected increase in the second half of the year. Demand shows a stable ratio of fat to lean pigs. Inventory weight has decreased slightly. In the long term, de - capacity policies may drive price increases in 2026 if implemented [1][7] - **Outlook**: Volatile. Spot and near - month prices are likely to be weak, while far - month contracts are supported by de - capacity expectations [1][7] 3.5 Natural Rubber - **Logic**: The price is range - bound between 157 - 161. There are many speculation themes, and the short - term supply is limited while demand is stable. The price may rise due to seasonality [10] - **Outlook**: Volatile and slightly bullish in the short term [10] 3.6 Synthetic Rubber - **Logic**: The price is range - bound, following natural rubber and supported by the cost of raw material butadiene. Butadiene supply is under no significant pressure, and demand is stable [11] - **Outlook**: Volatile and slightly bullish in the short term [11] 3.7 Cotton - **Logic**: The current low - inventory and improving - demand situation provides support for cotton prices. The expected increase in purchase prices is limited by the expected large increase in new cotton production. After new cotton is on the market, prices may face downward pressure [11][12] - **Outlook**: Short - term: Range - bound; After new cotton is on the market: May face downward pressure [11][12] 3.8 Sugar - **Logic**: International sugar production is expected to increase, and domestic imports are rising, resulting in downward pressure on prices [15] - **Outlook**: Long - term: Volatile and slightly bearish; Short - term: Range - bound between 5500 - 5750 [15] 3.9 Pulp - **Logic**: The decline is mainly due to the low acceptance of BCTMP pulp. After the 09 contract delivery, the pressure may be alleviated. The market shows a differentiated performance among different types of pulp [16] - **Outlook**: Volatile [16] 3.10 Logs - **Logic**: The price decline is due to lower foreign quotes and weaker domestic spot prices. The market is in a game between weak reality and peak - season expectations. Supply pressure will ease in the coming weeks [17][18] - **Outlook**: Weak in the near term and stronger in the far term [18]

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - The mid - term outlook for the industry is "Oscillation", indicating that the expected price fluctuations are within plus or minus one standard deviation in the next 2 - 12 weeks [7][97] Group 2: Core Viewpoints of the Report - The short - term impact of military parade production restrictions has ended, and enterprises in the industrial chain are resuming production. Hot metal is expected to return to a high level of 240,000 tons per day, supporting the demand for furnace materials. The performance of peak - season demand and domestic and foreign macro - policies will further intensify the sector's fluctuations [7] - Future market focus will revolve around "downstream inventory replenishment", "peak - season demand", and "overseas interest rate cuts", and attention should be paid to the possibility of the sector rising under the resonance of these three factors [1] Group 3: Summary by Related Catalogs 1. Iron Element - Overseas mine shipments and arrivals at 45 ports increased month - on - month as expected. Due to the military parade production restrictions, hot metal production decreased significantly, but since September 4th, blast furnaces in Tangshan have resumed production intensively. It is expected that the impact on hot metal production reduction will be limited, and it is expected to return to a high level next week. The total iron ore inventory has increased slightly. If downstream inventory replenishment starts before the National Day, the fundamentals are supported, and the future price is expected to oscillate. For scrap steel, the fundamental contradictions are not prominent. The low profit of electric furnaces and tight resources are expected to keep the short - term price oscillating [2] 2. Carbon Element - After the military parade, steel mills will enter the peak - production season, and the short - term price is expected to remain oscillating under demand support. After the military parade, coal mines will gradually resume production but are unlikely to reach the previous high. The arrival of the downstream demand peak season still supports the coking coal price [2] 3. Alloys - For manganese silicon, the prices of manganese ore and coke are weak, the cost support is insufficient, and the market supply - demand expectation is pessimistic. In the long - term, there is still significant downward pressure on the price, and attention should be paid to the reduction range of raw material costs. For silicon iron, the current cost still provides some support, but in the long - term, as the market supply - demand relationship becomes looser, the price center will tend to decline, and attention should be paid to the coal market dynamics and the adjustment of electricity costs in the main production areas [2] 4. Glass and Soda Ash - Glass has weak real - world demand, but there are expectations for the peak season and policies. After the mid - stream inventory reduction, there may still be a wave of oscillations. In the long - term, market - oriented capacity reduction is needed, and if the price returns to fundamental trading, it is expected to decline oscillatingly. Soda ash still has an oversupply situation. After the futures price decline, spot trading has increased slightly, and it is expected to run with wide - range oscillations in the future. In the long - term, the price center will decline to promote capacity reduction [3] 5. Individual Product Analysis - **Steel**: The fundamentals are weak, with both supply and demand decreasing and inventory accumulating rapidly. After the military parade, hot metal production may recover, and attention should be paid to the release of short - term inventory replenishment demand during the peak season, which may support the price [8] - **Iron Ore**: Supply and inventory are stable, and there is an expectation of demand recovery. The fundamentals are supported, and the future price is expected to oscillate [9] - **Scrap Steel**: The daily consumption has decreased slightly, and the price is expected to oscillate due to low electric - furnace profits and tight resources [10] - **Coke**: After the military parade, steel mills will enter the peak - production season, and the short - term price is expected to oscillate [11] - **Coking Coal**: After the military parade, coal mines will gradually resume production but are unlikely to reach the previous high. The arrival of the downstream demand peak season still supports the price [12] - **Glass**: Real - world demand is weak, but there are peak - season and policy expectations. After mid - stream inventory reduction, there may be oscillations. In the long - term, market - oriented capacity reduction is needed, and the price is expected to decline oscillatingly [12] - **Soda Ash**: The oversupply situation remains unchanged. After the futures price decline, spot trading has increased slightly, and it is expected to run with wide - range oscillations. In the long - term, the price center will decline to promote capacity reduction [15] - **Manganese Silicon**: The cost support is weak, and there is significant downward pressure on the price in the long - term. Attention should be paid to the reduction range of raw material costs [16] - **Silicon Iron**: The current cost provides some support, but in the long - term, the price center will tend to decline. Attention should be paid to the coal market dynamics and the adjustment of electricity costs in the main production areas [17]
