1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report - The supply of pigs is expected to increase significantly after September, and the price may experience a phased rebound but with limited upside potential. In the long - term, prices will continue to face pressure. For eggs, short - term supply is abundant, restricting price increases, while long - term high supply may be difficult to reverse. Corn supply is sufficient in the short - term, and the price may decline due to concentrated new - crop supply and lower costs [4][6][7]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1 Pig 3.1.1 Weekly Market Review - As of August 22, the national spot price of pigs was 13.67 yuan/kg, down 0.03 yuan/kg from last week; the Henan pig price was 13.61 yuan/kg, up 0.12 yuan/kg. The futures price of live pigs 2511 was 13,840 yuan/ton, down 105 yuan/ton from last week. The 11 - contract basis was - 230 yuan/ton, down 15 yuan/ton [4][15]. 3.1.2 Fundamental Data Review - Supply: The inventory of breeding sows is sufficient, and production performance has improved. The supply of pigs will increase in the third and fourth quarters, especially after September. The planned slaughter volume of large - scale enterprises in August has increased. The proportion of small and large pigs in weekly slaughter has increased, and the average slaughter weight has risen for two consecutive weeks. - Demand: Weekly slaughter capacity and volume have slightly increased, but the fresh - meat sales rate has fluctuated narrowly, and the frozen - meat inventory rate has slightly increased. The demand is expected to increase at the end of August, but the profit of slaughtering enterprises is still in the red, limiting the increase in demand. - Cost: The price of piglets has decreased, the price of binary breeding sows has remained flat, the self - breeding and self - raising profit has turned negative, and the cost of fattening pigs has slightly increased [4]. 3.1.3 Key Data Tracking - The inventory of breeding sows increased from May to November 2024, decreased slightly from December 2024 to January 2025, increased again from May to June 2025, and decreased slightly in July. The production performance of sows has reached the highest level in the past four years, and the number of newborn piglets has increased [20]. 3.1.4 Weekly Summary and Strategy Recommendations - The state's pork purchase and storage mainly boost market sentiment. The supply pressure will be alleviated, and consumption is expected to improve, which may drive a phased price rebound, but the rebound height is limited. In the long - term, the supply will increase before May next year, and prices will continue to face pressure. It is recommended to wait for the price to rebound and then short - sell on the 11 and 01 contracts, and pay attention to the long 05 and short 03 arbitrage [4]. 3.2 Eggs 3.2.1 Weekly Market Review - As of August 22, the average price of eggs in the main production areas was 3.11 yuan/jin, up 0.01 yuan/jin from last Friday; the average price in the main sales areas was 3.06 yuan/jin, up 0.09 yuan/jin. The futures price of the main 2510 contract was 3033 yuan/500 kg, down 149 yuan/500 kg from last Friday. The basis of the main contract was - 393 yuan/500 kg, up 169 yuan/500 kg [6][66]. 3.2.2 Fundamental Data Review - Supply: The number of newly - laid hens in August remains high. Although the culling of old hens has accelerated, the supply of cold - storage eggs has supplemented the market, and the overall supply is still abundant. The inventory of laying hens in July reached the highest level in the same period in history. - Demand: The current low egg price has stimulated downstream procurement, and the demand is expected to increase seasonally. However, the inventory in each link has increased [6]. 3.2.3 Key Data Tracking - The number of newly - laid hens from September to November 2025 is expected to be large due to high replenishment from May to July 2025. The enthusiasm for replenishing chicks has declined, and the supply growth may slow down [89]. 3.2.4 Weekly Summary and Strategy Recommendations - The egg price may stop falling and rebound, but the high supply in the short - term will limit the increase. If the Mid - Autumn Festival peak season fails again, the culling may increase, alleviating the supply pressure in the distant months. It is recommended to short - sell on the 10 contract after the price rebounds or hold put options. If the culling process accelerates, there may be opportunities to go long on the 12 and 01 contracts [6]. 3.3 Corn 3.3.1 Weekly Market Review - As of August 22, the平仓 price of corn at Jinzhou Port in Liaoning was 2290 yuan/ton, down 10 yuan/ton from last Friday. The futures price of the main 2511 contract was 2175 yuan/ton, down 15 yuan/ton from last Friday. The basis of the main contract was 115 yuan/ton, up 5 yuan/ton [7][95]. 3.3.2 Fundamental Data Review - Supply: The inventory of traders is low, but the new spring corn in North China has been launched, and the policy - related grain rotation has supplemented the supply. The import of corn in July decreased significantly. - Demand: The demand for feed has increased, but the high price difference between corn and wheat has squeezed the feed demand for corn. The deep - processing industry is still in the red, and the start - up rate is low [7]. 3.3.3 Key Data Tracking - The 2025/2026 corn planting is stable, and the climate suitability is very high. The planting cost has decreased [114]. 3.3.4 Weekly Summary and Strategy Recommendations - The supply of corn is sufficient in the short - term, and the price may be under pressure due to the concentrated supply of new crops and lower costs. It is recommended to short - sell on the 11 contract after the price rebounds or hold the 11 - 1 reverse spread [7].

Report Information - Report Title: Carbonate Lithium Weekly Report [2] - Report Date: August 25, 2025 [3] Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the report Core Viewpoints - The supply of carbonate lithium was affected by mine shutdowns and permit reviews, while overseas imports showed mixed trends. The cost of some manufacturers was under pressure, and the demand showed an upward trend in August. The inventory was in a destocking state. It is expected that the price of carbonate lithium will be supported in the short term but will continue to fluctuate widely, and cautious trading is recommended [5][6] Summary by Directory 1. Weekly Viewpoint Supply - Last week, the output of carbonate lithium increased by 345 tons to 20,438 tons, and the output in July increased by 5.8% to 85,690 tons. The Ningde Jianxiawo mine was confirmed to be shut down for 3 months, and manufacturers in Yichun and Qinghai received notices for mine - right transfer reviews. The cost - reduction space of Australian mines is limited, and most have reduced their capital expenditure for fiscal year 25. In July 2025, China's lithium ore imports were 751,000 tons, a month - on - month increase of 30.3%. The imports from Australia were about 427,000 tons, a month - on - month increase of 67% and a year - on - year increase of 12.8%. The imports from Zimbabwe decreased by 36% month - on - month, and those from Nigeria increased by 47% month - on - month. The imports of carbonate lithium in July were 14,000 tons, a month - on - month decrease of 22%, and 9,000 tons were imported from Chile, accounting for 62% [5] Cost - The CIF price of imported lithium spodumene concentrate increased week - on - week, causing cost inversion for some manufacturers using purchased lithium ore. Manufacturers with their own ore and salt lakes had some profit support, while lithium hydroxide manufacturers faced greater cost pressure [5] Demand - The overall production schedule in August increased month - on - month, with large battery cell manufacturers' production schedules increasing by 7% month - on - month. In July, the total output of power and other batteries in China was 133.8 GWh, a month - on - month increase of 3.6% and a year - on - year increase of 44.3%. The total export was 23.2 GWh, a month - on - month decrease of 4.7% but a year - on - year increase of 35.4%. The sales volume was 127.2 GWh, a month - on - month decrease of 3.2% but a year - on - year increase of 47.8%. Policies are expected to support the sales growth of new energy vehicles in China [6] Inventory - This week, the inventory of carbonate lithium was in a destocking state, with factory inventory decreasing by 1,590 tons, market inventory decreasing by 591 tons, and futures inventory increasing by 1,505 tons [6] Strategy Suggestion - It is expected that South American lithium salt imports will supplement the supply. The terminal demand for energy storage is good, but there are still risks in mine certificates, and the cost center has shifted upward. The proportion of long - term contracts and customer - supplied products for battery manufacturers has increased. It is expected that the price of carbonate lithium will be supported in the short term but will continue to fluctuate widely. Cautious trading is recommended, and attention should be paid to the production reduction of upstream enterprises and the production schedules of cathode material manufacturers [6] 2. Key Data Tracking - The report provides multiple data charts, including the spot tax - included average price of carbonate lithium, weekly and monthly production, weekly and monthly inventory, average production cost, production and output - loading volume differences of power batteries, production of different cathode materials, import volume of lithium spodumene and carbonate lithium, and market prices of related materials [8][10][12] - In July 2024, the production of carbonate lithium from different raw materials accounted for 22.56% from salt lakes, 22.05% from lithium mica, and 43.87% from lithium spodumene [20][21]

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report - For soybean meal, under the low inventory - to - sales ratio of US soybeans, a decrease in yield and improvement in exports may further tighten the ratio, with US soybean prices expected to run strongly around 1030 cents per bushel. In China, from September to October, arrivals are abundant, and prices are pressured by the uncertainty of state reserves release and US soybean purchases. However, due to cost support, significant price drops are unlikely. In the short - term, prices will mainly operate within the range of [3080, 3200]. In the long - term, soybean meal prices will follow the upward trend of US soybeans, but the increase may be less than that of US soybeans [6]. - For oils, the improvement in demand combined with the tightening supply provides upward momentum. Currently, the fundamentals of the three major domestic oils are mainly positive. In the short - term, the three major oils are expected to maintain a strong and volatile trend [79]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Soybean Meal 3.1.1 Periodic and Spot Market - As of August 22, the spot price in East China was 3020 yuan/ton, a weekly decrease of 20 yuan/ton. The M2601 contract closed at 3088 yuan/ton, a weekly decrease of 49 yuan/ton. The basis price was 01 - 100 yuan/ton, a weekly increase of 30 yuan/ton. US soybeans rebounded to around 1060 cents per bushel, while the domestic soybean meal trend was inverted, and the market was pressured by state reserves release and US soybean purchases [6]. 3.1.2 Supply - In the first half of August, precipitation in US soybean - growing areas was less than in July. As of August 17, the good - to - excellent rate of US soybeans remained around 68%, and it is expected to decline. In China, arrivals from August to October are sufficient, but after October, supply may gradually decrease due to the slow pace of US soybean purchases. However, the possibility of state reserves release and US soybean purchases still exists [6]. 3.1.3 Demand - In 2025, the domestic aquaculture profit improved, and the inventory of pigs and poultry was at a high level, supporting the demand for feed. The demand for soybean meal is expected to increase by more than 5% year - on - year in the second half of the year, corresponding to a monthly soybean crushing volume of over 9 million tons [6]. 3.1.4 Cost - In the 25/26 season, the planting cost of US soybeans decreased to 1135 cents per bushel. The bottom price of US soybeans is expected to be around 980 cents per bushel, and it is expected to fluctuate around 1030 cents per bushel. The bottom price of domestic soybean meal cost has risen to 3060 yuan/ton [6]. 3.1.5 Market Summary and Strategy - In the short - term, soybean meal prices will mainly operate within the range of [3080, 3200]. In the long - term, they will follow the upward trend of US soybeans. The strategy is to mainly conduct range operations on M2601, lay out long positions at the lower edge of the range, and gradually reduce positions at high prices. Spot enterprises should increase positions in a rolling manner [6]. 3.2 Oils 3.2.1 Periodic and Spot Market - As of the week ending August 22, the palm oil main 01 contract rose 132 yuan/ton to 9592 yuan/ton, the soybean oil main 01 contract fell 76 yuan/ton to 8458 yuan/ton, and the rapeseed oil main 01 contract rose 133 yuan/ton to 9890 yuan/ton. The domestic oil market showed slight differentiation this week [80]. 3.2.2 Palm Oil - The MPOB July report showed that the ending inventory of Malaysian palm oil only accumulated to 2.13 million tons, lower than market expectations. In August, the export demand of Malaysian palm oil rebounded strongly, while the production increase was slow, so the inventory accumulation speed may continue to slow down. In Indonesia, the ending inventory continued to decline to 2.53 million tons in June. In China, palm oil imports have increased, and the short - term supply is expected to remain loose [80]. 3.2.3 Soybean Oil - The Pro Farmer survey estimated the 25/26 season US soybean yield to be 53 bushels per acre, strengthening the expectation of a bumper harvest. However, the USDA August report unexpectedly lowered the sown area of US soybeans in the 25/26 season, and the overall supply - demand situation has tightened. In China, the soybean supply is sufficient until October, but after November, the supply may tighten, which is expected to drive the inventory of soybean oil to decline [80]. 3.2.4 Rapeseed Oil - China's preliminary anti - dumping investigation on Canadian rapeseed has been finalized, which will seriously affect the import of Canadian rapeseed. In the short - term, although there are market rumors about the purchase of Australian rapeseed, the supply of rapeseed in China is expected to be tight before November, which is conducive to the reduction of rapeseed oil inventory [80]. 3.2.5 Weekly Summary and Strategy - Currently, the fundamentals of the three major domestic oils are mainly positive. In the short - term, they are expected to maintain a strong and volatile trend. The strategy is to consider long positions on dips or rolling long positions for the 01 contracts of soybean, palm, and rapeseed oils. For arbitrage, pay attention to the long strategy of the palm oil 1 - 5 spread [80].

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. Core Views Index Futures - On Wednesday morning, the A-share market fluctuated and declined, but rebounded in the afternoon driven by the artificial intelligence sector. Ignoring the overnight decline of US stocks and Asia-Pacific stock indices, index futures soared in a short-squeeze situation, contrasting with the limit-down of lithium carbonate. The loose capital situation is the main reason. Under the central bank's loose policy, funds flow into the stock and futures markets in search of returns. With the improvement of residents' wealth management awareness and the decline of the attractiveness of real estate, some funds have turned to the financial sector, enriching the stock market capital pool. The general bullish sentiment in the market forms a positive feedback - investors' buying drives up prices, and rising prices attract more funds, amplifying the gains. This change in sentiment and confidence has become an important psychological basis for the short-squeeze market of index futures IM and IC [1]. Treasury Bond Futures - Taking the previous high as a reference, if the subsequent adjustment of yields cannot break through the previous high (for example, the previous high of 2.06% for the active 30-year treasury bond 2500002), then the most severe impact of the strong performance of the equity market on the bond market may have passed. At the same time, the bond market has also witnessed marginal positive factors such as the return of loose capital after the tax period and the relief of the fund redemption pressure after the previous release. This environment is conducive to the stabilization of bond market sentiment and also helps the bond market and the equity market to trade according to their own logics in the subsequent process [1].

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - In the short term, the increase in domestic palm oil and rapeseed oil purchases and the call to postpone B50 limit the upside space for oils. However, in the long term, the supply - demand of the three major oils is expected to tighten, laying the foundation for the rise of oil prices. The price performance in the fourth quarter is expected to be stronger than that in the third quarter [2][60]. - For trading strategies, in the short term, the support levels for the 01 contracts of soybean, palm, and rapeseed oils are 8400 - 8500, 9300 - 9400, and 9700 respectively. A strategy of buying on dips is recommended, and chasing highs should be done with caution. Attention can be paid to the reverse spread of rapeseed oil 11 - 01 [3][61]. Summary by Directory Palm Oil - **Short - term Outlook**: Although palm oil is in the seasonal production - increasing period, with the August inventory rising to 2.13 million tons but lower than market expectations, and the high - frequency data showing a decrease in production and an increase in exports in August, palm oil is expected to strengthen again after a small correction [6]. - **Malaysian Palm Oil**: The MPOB July report shows that Malaysia's palm oil has strong supply and demand, but high domestic consumption leads to a lower - than - expected inventory increase. In August, export data improved, with a 16.5 - 21.3% increase in exports from August 1 - 15 compared to the previous month, and production growth slowed down, which is beneficial for price increases. However, seasonal inventory accumulation from September to October may disrupt prices [6]. - **Indonesian Palm Oil**: The GAPKI May report shows a decrease in production and an increase in exports, with the inventory decreasing to 2.916 million tons. From June to July, production continued to decline, possibly due to the crackdown on illegal plantations. Domestic consumption and export demand are expected to remain strong, and the supply - demand is expected to maintain a long - term tight balance, driving up international palm oil prices. The main uncertainties come from lagging data and the risk of B50 postponement [8]. - **Domestic Palm Oil**: In the short term, the supply is relatively abundant, with the inventory reaching 617,300 tons as of August 15. Recently, the import profit has improved, and traders are increasing purchases from August to November. In the long term, although the supply pressure from the origin is not large, the price may be affected by Malaysian seasonal inventory accumulation, Indian procurement demand fluctuations, and Indonesian biodiesel policies [13][17]. Soybean Oil - **Short - term Outlook**: The USDA August report was unexpectedly bullish, and the high - level of domestic soybean and soybean oil inventories, along with concerns about future soybean supply, lead to a short - term strong - side oscillation for soybean oil [18]. - **US Soybean Production**: The USDA August report increased the 25/26 US soybean yield but decreased the planting area by 2.5 million acres. The new - crop supply - demand has tightened, and there is a possibility of further tightening. If the yield drops to 52.5 bushels, the ending inventory will decline to a very low level of 200 million bushels [19]. - **US Soybean Demand**: In the biodiesel sector, the increase in demand for US soybean oil in biodiesel is likely, but the increase may be lower than expected. In the export sector, as of August 18, there was no news of China's resumption of US soybean purchases, which may suppress US soybean prices [20]. - **South American Soybeans**: China continues to purchase a large amount of Brazilian soybeans. If China does not buy US soybeans, the cost of Brazilian soybeans will increase, and Argentina's soybean meal may be imported in large quantities in the fourth quarter [23]. - **Domestic Situation**: From May to August, a large amount of South American soybeans entered China, leading to high inventories of domestic soybeans and soybean oil. In the short term, the supply is sufficient, but after October, if US soybeans cannot be imported, the supply will tighten, which is beneficial for soybean oil destocking [23]. Rapeseed Oil - **Price Fluctuation**: The price of rapeseed oil has fluctuated significantly due to the preliminary anti - dumping review of Canadian rapeseed. After the initial sharp rise, it declined due to the risk warning from the Zhengzhou Commodity Exchange and news of alternative imports [38]. - **Domestic Supply - Demand**: After August 14, the import of Canadian rapeseed will decrease significantly. Although there are plans to increase imports from other countries, they cannot fully make up for the supply shortage. The supply - demand of domestic rapeseed and rapeseed oil is expected to tighten, which is beneficial for price increases. However, policy adjustments and alternative imports may disrupt prices [40]. - **Impact on Canada**: China is the largest buyer of Canadian rapeseed. After the anti - dumping review, the export demand of Canadian rapeseed will face a significant decline, and the supply - demand will shift from slightly loose to significantly loose or even severely surplus, suppressing the price of Canadian rapeseed [50]. - **International Trade**: After the anti - dumping decision, China's dependence on Canadian rapeseed products will decrease, while its dependence on Australian rapeseed and rapeseed oil from other countries will increase. Canada will increase its dependence on the US, UAE, and the EU [54].
