1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The egg market is currently characterized by high overall production capacity, with a slowdown in recent new replenishment. The supply - side pressure is gradually weakening, while the demand has improved but the marginal support is weakening, requiring new demand from tourism and Mid - Autumn Festival stocking. - The cost of feed has slightly declined, with the current feed cost around 2.5 yuan per catty and the comprehensive breeding cost around 2.8 yuan per catty. Egg prices have returned above the feed breeding cost seasonally, and profits have improved. - The spot market will still receive seasonal demand support after a short - term release of the decline sentiment, but the futures premium is obvious, and it is difficult to follow the spot rebound. As the delivery month approaches, the main 09 contract may decline to repair the basis, and attention should be paid to reverse spread opportunities. [3] 3. Summary by Related Catalogs Futures Review - Last week, egg futures maintained a weak oscillation, and the overall weakness remained unchanged. The biggest contradiction in the market is the large basis, with obvious selling pressure and weak willingness to take delivery. [6] Spot Review - Last week, egg spot prices maintained a weak adjustment and stabilized over the weekend. The sales areas started to sell at low prices, and the market began to accept the goods. After this round of adjustment, the spot prices will be supported by the start of school for students and Mid - Autumn Festival deep - processing stocking. Attention should be paid to the rebound height. [13] Supply - Newly - added capacity: From August to November 2025, the newly - opened production corresponds to the replenishment volume from April to July 2025, and the newly - added capacity will decline significantly. - Elimination capacity: From August to November 2025, the normal elimination capacity corresponds to the replenishment volume from March to June 2024. The data shows a high elimination volume, but the current data indicates obvious delayed elimination. - Laying hen inventory: The inventory data continues to increase slightly, but it will start to decrease in September. The newly - added capacity is stable with a slight decline, and the elimination is relatively slow. The overall supply pressure still exists. [16] Elimination End - The price of eliminated chickens is 5.51 yuan per catty (- 0.27). The elimination volume has significantly decreased. The peak season and a slight price rebound limit the enthusiasm for elimination. The average elimination age is 502 days, remaining unchanged, and the overall age has reached the normal range, but the elimination of backward production capacity is not ideal. [19] Seasonal Factors - It is the seasonal peak season. On the production area side, the inventory pressure in the production areas has increased, high temperatures have reduced the laying rate and increased costs. On the consumption side, the arrival of the tourism peak season combined with deep - processing has improved the overall demand. [21] Cost & Profit - Cost side: Corn prices are running at a high level, and soybean meal prices have steadily declined. The overall cost remains volatile. The current feed cost is around 2.5 yuan per catty, and the comprehensive breeding cost is around 2.8 yuan per catty. - Breeding profit: Recently, egg prices have risen, and the spot price has returned above the feed cost. However, the overall comprehensive breeding profit is still in a loss, showing a seasonal bottom - rebounding trend. Attention should be paid to the negative feedback on backward production capacity. [27] Capital and Market - Capital has increased at a high level, and market competition has intensified. Bears believe that the production capacity is high, there is seasonal suppression, and the futures premium over the spot still has room to decline. Bulls believe that the valuation is low, and the seasonality is about to turn from weak to strong, making it valuable to go long. Currently, the reality is stronger than expectations, with obvious futures premium over the spot and obvious selling pressure in the market, waiting for the cycle conversion. [30] Basis and Spread - Basis: The basis is negative, and the overall futures are at a premium. The current basis is running at a low level, waiting for the basis to strengthen with the arrival of the peak season, which is more likely to be achieved through a decline in futures prices. - Spread: It shows that supply exceeds demand. The near - month contracts in the market are constantly repairing the basis through price declines, and the far - month contracts face the expectation of reduced production capacity, with a focus on reverse spread operations.

Group 1: Report Investment Rating - There is no information about the industry investment rating in the report. Group 2: Core Viewpoints - This week, the domestic urea spot market price showed a weak trend. The current daily production will fluctuate around 190,000 - 200,000 tons. In August, many previously shut - down plants are expected to resume production, and some new capacity plants are expected to be put into operation, so the supply pressure is expected to increase. On the demand side, the production start - up of autumn compound fertilizers continues to increase, but the downstream dealers' enthusiasm for picking up goods is insufficient, and the finished product inventory still faces great pressure. In the short term, the high inventory of autumn fertilizers suppresses the production enthusiasm of enterprises, and the support for the procurement demand of urea raw materials is weak. The futures price may continue to fluctuate weakly, and the market should pay attention to the support level performance around 1,680 - 1,700 yuan/ton on the disk [4]. Group 3: Summary by Directory 01 Week - ly Viewpoint Summary - **Supply**: In August, many plants are expected to resume production, and the supply is expected to increase [4]. - **Demand**: The start - up of autumn fertilizers has increased, but the finished product inventory pressure is still large [4]. - **Inventory**: The inventory of upstream urea enterprises decreased slightly on a week - on - week basis [4]. - **Cost and Profit**: The upward trend of coal prices has slowed down, and the urea profit decreased slightly on a week - on - week basis [4]. - **Basis and Spread**: The 9 - 1 spread fluctuated strongly, and the change in the 09 basis was limited [4]. - **Overall Logic**: The domestic urea spot market price was weak this week. Supply pressure is expected to increase, while demand is constrained by high inventory. The futures price may continue to fluctuate weakly, and attention should be paid to the support level around 1,680 - 1,700 yuan/ton [4]. 02 Variety Details Decomposition - **2.1 This week, the domestic urea market price changed from strong to weak**: There are price trend charts of urea in Shandong, Shanxi, Henan, Hebei, Anhui, and Northeast China from 2021 - 2025 [6][7][8]. - **2.2 On August 4, the lowest CFR price of the Indian tender on the east coast was $532/ton**: There are charts showing international urea prices, price differences between FOB China and other regions, and export price differences from 2019 - 2025 [10][11][12]. - **2.3 Supply - In August, many plants are expected to resume production, and the supply is expected to increase**: The weekly urea production was 1.3548 million tons (+0.01%), including 1.0451 million tons of coal - based urea production (-1.62%) and 309,700 tons of gas - based urea production (+5.92%), with an average daily production of 194,000 tons.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report Copper - **Logic**: Macroeconomic factors include China's export growth in July exceeding expectations, the impact of US tariff policies yet to be seen, and market expectations of a Fed rate cut within the year. Fundamentally, high - end copper supply is scarce, imported low - price supplies are limited, and demand is suppressed by high prices. As of August 7, copper inventory rose to 132,000 tons. The implementation of US copper tariffs and high inventory are pressuring prices [4]. - **Strategy**: Wait for the price to stabilize. The upper reference pressure level for the SHFE Copper 2509 contract is 80,000 yuan/ton, and the lower reference support level is 76,000 yuan/ton [4]. Electrolytic Aluminum - **Logic**: Macroeconomic factors are similar to copper. Fundamentally, production is slightly increasing, costs are stable, and profits are high. However, demand is weak due to the off - season, and social inventory has exceeded 550,000 tons. Aluminum prices may remain high and volatile, and attention should be paid to the "Golden September and Silver October" demand [6]. - **Strategy**: The upper reference pressure level for the SHFE Aluminum 2509 contract is 21,000 yuan/ton, and the lower reference support level is 20,200 yuan/ton [6]. Alumina - **Logic**: Macroeconomic factors are the same as above. Fundamentally, the weekly operating rate rose to 82.57% as of August 7, and the market is in an oversupply situation with high downstream inventory. Alumina may oscillate within a range [8]. - **Strategy**: The upper reference pressure level for the Alumina 2509 contract is 3,600 yuan/ton, and the lower reference support level is 3,000 yuan/ton [8]. 3. Summary by Directory 01. Market Review - **Weekly Price Changes**: Provided the 8.4 - 8.8 weekly cumulative price change statistics for various metals such as copper, aluminum, and zinc [16]. - **Weekly News**: Included events like Codelco's suspension of ore processing due to a tunnel collapse, changes in Chile's copper exports, US copper tariffs, Century Aluminum's plan to restart production, and changes in US aluminum imports [17]. 02.

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The steel market is in a state of slight inventory accumulation during the off - season, but steel prices still have upward drivers. The overall inventory accumulation pressure of steel is not large. Considering the expected production cuts in Beijing - Tianjin - Hebei and surrounding provinces before the September military parade and the potential for terminal demand to form restocking support during the off - peak to peak season transition, steel prices are expected to have limited short - term decline space and medium - term upward drivers [3]. - The iron ore market has limited short - term supply pressure, and the inventory has no obvious accumulation pressure. It follows the changes in macro - policy expectations and market sentiment. With the transition from the off - season to the peak season, terminal demand remains resilient, and there are still opportunities for medium - term low - buying [4]. - The coking coal and coke market is firm. Coking coal mines in some areas have production cuts, and Mongolian coal customs clearance is at a high level. After the fifth round of coke price increases, the profitability has improved, and the sixth round of price increases has been initiated. With high iron - water production supporting raw materials, there is still upward space [5]. Summary According to the Table of Contents 1. Market Review - The coking coal and coke market is firm, and steel prices are oscillating. Last week, there were many disturbances in coking coal supply news. Supported by high iron - water production, the coking coal and coke market was strong, forming cost support. The industrial structure continued to have slight inventory accumulation during the off - season, exports remained resilient, and the market sentiment was optimistic, with prices showing slight oscillating adjustments [9]. 2. Steel Supply and Demand Analysis - **Production**: National weekly production of rebar was 221.18 million tons (up 4.79% week - on - week and 31.23% year - on - year), and that of hot - rolled coils was 314.89 million tons (down 2.45% week - on - week and up 3.73% year - on - year). Both blast - furnace and electric - furnace rebar production increased [13][16][18]. - **Operating Rate**: The national blast - furnace operating rate was 83.75% (up 0.35% week - on - week and 3.04% year - on - year), and the electric - furnace operating rate was 74.9% (up 0.93% week - on - week and 36.98% year - on - year) [24][28]. - **Profit**: Rebar profit was + 177 yuan/ton (up 22.03% week - on - week and 289 yuan/ton year - on - year), and hot - rolled coil profit was + 188 yuan/ton (down 10.05% week - on - week and up 303 yuan/ton year - on - year) [29][32]. - **Demand**: Rebar apparent consumption was 210.79 million tons (up 3.63% week - on - week and 7.57% year - on - year), and hot - rolled coil apparent consumption was 306.21 million tons (down 4.31% week - on - week and up 2.58% year - on - year) [33][37]. - **Inventory**: Rebar total inventory was 556.68 million tons (up 1.90% week - on - week and down 22.70% year - on - year), and hot - rolled coil total inventory was 356.63 million tons (up 2.49% week - on - week and down 18.46% year - on - year) [38][41][46]. - **Downstream**: In the real - estate market, the weekly transaction area of commercial housing in 30 large - and medium - sized cities increased by 15.22% week - on - week and decreased by 15.43% year - on - year.

Zhong Yuan Qi Huo· 2025-08-11 14:29
Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - **Macro**: China's export growth in July 2025 continued to exceed expectations, and attention should be paid to policy changes; the implementation of US tariff policies and the impact on the economy remain to be seen; with the personnel changes in the Federal Reserve, market expectations for an interest rate cut within the year are rising [4]. - **Supply - Demand**: In the East China region, there are both device overhauls and restarts, but without substantial positive support for non - aluminum demand, affected by the price decline in the main regions, the liquid caustic soda price is expected to be weakly stable this week. In Shandong Province, the liquid caustic soda market remains weak, the shipment of high - concentration caustic soda slows down, and the price will show a weakly stable trend [4]. - **Overall Logic**: Caustic soda has strong cost support at the bottom. From the supply - demand perspective, the inventory pressure is obvious, and the near - month contracts will face certain warrant pressure. It is recommended to pay attention to the 9 - 11 reverse spread [4]. - **Strategy Suggestion**: For the caustic soda 2509 contract, the upper reference pressure level is 2650 yuan/ton, and the lower support level is 2350 yuan/ton [4]. 3. Summary by Directory 01 Market Review - **Spot Market**: Shandong's liquid caustic soda market is running weakly. The price of 32% liquid caustic soda in Shandong decreased by 20 yuan/ton to 800 yuan/ton, a decline of 2.44%; the price of 50% liquid caustic soda decreased by 40 yuan/ton to 1280 yuan/ton, a decline of 3.03%. The price of 98% flake caustic soda in the northwest region decreased by 100 yuan/ton to 3150 yuan/ton, a decline of 3.08%. The price of liquid chlorine in Shandong increased by 150 yuan/ton to - 100 yuan/ton, an increase of 60%. The prices of sea salt in Shandong and alumina in Shandong remained unchanged [9][18]. - **Futures Market**: The report presents the price trends of caustic soda, soda ash, alumina, and PVC futures contracts, but no specific data analysis is provided [15]. 02 Market Analysis - **Supply Side**: In the week of 20250801 - 0807, the average capacity utilization rate of China's caustic soda sample enterprises with a capacity of 200,000 tons and above was 85.1%, a month - on - month increase of 1.2%. It is expected that the caustic soda capacity utilization rate will be around 83.1%, and the weekly output will be around 804,500 tons. There are still planned maintenance devices in the northwest and north China regions, and the load is expected to decline [22]. - **Downstream - Alumina**: The supply of alumina changed little in the week. The supply - demand mismatch in different regions still exists.
