1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will issue a new round of plans to stabilize the growth of the non - ferrous metal industry, providing some support to the market. Overseas tariff policies are fluctuating, and the path of the Fed's interest rate cuts still needs to be observed [4]. - In the supply - demand aspect, the maintenance devices in the East China region are gradually resuming this week, with abundant supply. The off - season of non - aluminum demand continues, and the market lacks substantial positive drivers. After the price increase of liquid caustic soda in Shandong Province, downstream buyers are resistant to high prices, and the shipment slows down. After the previous maintenance devices resume production one after another, the supply increases [4]. - There is strong cost support below for caustic soda. The domestic "anti - involution" drives the collective strengthening of market sentiment. Attention should be paid to whether the spot price can be synchronized with the performance of futures. Once the futures price has a high premium over the spot price, be vigilant against the risk of decline [4]. 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core View of the Report - This week, the domestic urea spot market price stopped falling and rebounded. With the resumption of some previously shut - down plants, supply is expected to increase. On the demand side, agricultural top - dressing demand is gradually weakening, while the operating rate of compound fertilizer enterprises has rebounded from a low level, and the inventory of autumn fertilizer has increased. The expected export quota still has a certain impact on the market, and the increase in goods shipped to ports has led to a continuous reduction in urea enterprise inventories. In the short term, although facing the pressure of increased supply and weakening agricultural top - dressing demand, the marginal improvement of autumn fertilizer and export demand still strongly support urea. Coupled with the overall strong commodity atmosphere driven by macro - policy expectations, the futures price may continue to fluctuate strongly in the range of 1720 - 1850 yuan/ton. Follow - up attention should be paid to changes in export quotas and raw material procurement for autumn fertilizer [5]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Weekly View Summary - Supply: Some previously shut - down plants are resuming production, and supply is expected to increase [5]. - Demand: Agricultural top - dressing demand is marginally weakening, and attention should be paid to the pre - sales progress of autumn fertilizer.

The operating rate of melamine is 64.24% (+1.68%) [5][35]. - Inventory: Port inventory continues to increase, and the inventory pressure of urea enterprises has eased. Urea enterprise inventory is 89.55 tons, a month - on - month decrease of 7.22 tons. Port inventory is 54.1 tons (a month - on - month increase of 5.2 tons). The mainstream pre - sales days of urea enterprises are 6.06 days (a month - on - month increase of 2.02%) [5][32]. - Cost and Profit: Coal prices are stable and slightly strong, and urea profits have increased month - on - month [5]. - Basis and Spread: The 9 - 1 spread fluctuates, and the 09 basis changes little [5]. - Overall Logic: This week, the domestic urea spot market price stopped falling and rebounded. Supply is expected to increase with the resumption of some plants. The export quota expectation still disturbs the market, and the inventory of urea enterprises continues to decline. Although facing supply increase and weakening agricultural top - dressing demand, autumn fertilizer improvement and export demand support urea, and the futures price may fluctuate in the 1720 - 1850 yuan/ton range [5]. 3.2 Variety Details Decomposition 3.2.1 Domestic Urea Market Price - This week, the domestic urea market price was weakly operating, and relevant price trend charts for different regions from 2021 - 2025 are provided [7][8]. 3.2.2 International Urea Price - International urea prices showed a mixed trend, with price trend charts of CFR Brazil, FOB Baltic, FOB Iran, FOB China from 2019 - 2025 provided, as well as the price difference between FOB China and FOB Arabian Gulf and FOB Baltic from 2021 - 2025 [11][12]. 3.2.3 Supply - Some previously shut - down plants are resuming production, and supply is expected to increase.

Report Title - "High Temperature Hits, Market Enters Seasonal Peak Season - Egg Weekly Report 2025-07-14" [1] Report Investment Rating - Not provided Core Viewpoints - The current contradiction is the co - existence of high supply and seasonal weather factors, leading to low spot prices. However, there will be a conversion point between the cycle and seasonal strength and weakness. The futures and spot markets are expected to have a phased rebound, and it is recommended to buy on dips and pay attention to reverse arbitrage opportunities [3] Summary by Directory Futures Market - Last week, the egg futures showed a neutral trend, with near - term contracts being weaker and far - term contracts being stronger. The near - term contracts were supported by delivery, maintaining a premium, while the far - term contracts oscillated. The spot was still constrained by weather and short - term supply - demand pressure, and the futures were in a phased bottom - building process, waiting for a reversal [6] Spot Market - Last week, the egg spot was generally stable. The production areas drove the sales areas to lower prices. The inventory in the production areas was high, and the market was actively selling goods and lowering prices. The sales areas were generally stable. Currently, weather conditions were suppressing spot prices, but the seasonal peak season was approaching, with tourism and demand support on the way, and the energy efficiency on the supply side would further decrease [14] Supply - **Newly - added capacity**: From June to August 2025, the newly - opened production corresponded to the replenishment volume from February to April 2025, which remained at a high level, higher than the historical average [17] - **Eliminated capacity**: From June to August 2025, the normal eliminated capacity corresponded to the replenishment volume from October 2023 to January 2024, and the available elimination volume was relatively neutral [17] - **Laying hen inventory**: The inventory of laying hens remained at a high level. The newly - added capacity increased steadily, the new replenishment slowed down, and the available elimination volume decreased slightly this month. The data showed that the backward production capacity had started the active elimination phase, but relatively slowly, and the overall supply pressure still existed [17] - **Eliminated chickens**: The backward production capacity began to be removed but had not entered the acceleration phase. The price of eliminated chickens was 4.51 yuan/jin, down 0.1 yuan/jin, seemingly entering a bottom - rebound period. The elimination volume continued to rise and was approaching the peak, and the "shutdown" might slow down. The average elimination age was 502 days, down 2 days, showing an obvious downward trend [21] Demand - The demand side did not change significantly. With students across the country on vacation, the demand slowed down in the short term. New demand release needed time, waiting for support from summer tourism and mid - to - long - term Mid - Autumn Festival stocking [3] Cost and Profit - **Cost**: The corn price remained at a high level, and the soybean meal spot price declined steadily. The overall cost fluctuated slightly downward. Currently, the feed cost was about 2.5 yuan/jin, and the comprehensive breeding cost was about 2.8 yuan/jin [3] - **Profit**: The breeding profit fell below the feed cost, and the entire industry entered a deep loss period, operating at a low level, waiting for a seasonal bottom - rebound. The negative feedback of production capacity caused by profit losses was gradually taking effect, and attention should be paid to the elimination of backward production capacity [3][30] Market Sentiment and Spread - **Funds**: The funds were at a high level, and the market competition intensified. The bears believed that due to high production capacity and seasonal suppression, there was still room for decline, while the bulls thought the valuation was low and the season was about to turn from weak to strong, presenting value for long - positions [33] - **Basis**: The basis was negative, and the overall futures price was at a premium, with positive expectations. Currently, the basis was at a low level, waiting for the strengthening trend brought by the active peak season [35] - **Spread**: The decline in spot prices suppressed near - term contracts, and short - term reverse arbitrage was the main strategy [38] Related Product Impact - **Vegetables**: Vegetable prices were about to enter a seasonal strengthening phase, providing some support for egg prices [26] - **Pork**: The pork price continued to weaken, and its substitution effect on eggs was not obvious [26] - **Other meats**: The prices of other meats showed a short - term strengthening trend [26]
