Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided Core Viewpoints - Due to the expansion of concerns about the global economic downturn risk caused by mutual tariff imposition between China and the US, crude oil prices have significantly weakened recently and are consolidating at a low level, and the macro - expectation has also turned significantly weaker. In the short term, polyester demand still has resilience, and the transmission speed of terminal negative feedback is slower than expected. Under the pessimistic demand expectation, the main recent gaming point will revolve around whether ethane - based ethylene glycol can bring about a reduction in supply [3]. - There are both positive and negative factors in the market. Positive factors include the market's expectation of trade dispute mitigation, expected import reduction in May and June, and high polyester load with a slight reduction in filament inventory and eased inventory pressure. Negative factors include the impact of US tariff hikes on terminal textile and clothing export demand and high hidden inventory in ethylene glycol factories [4][7]. Summary by Related Catalogs Polyester Price Interval Forecast - Price Ranges: The monthly price ranges are 3900 - 4500 for ethylene glycol, 5800 - 6600 for PX, 4100 - 4800 for PTA, and 5400 - 6100 for bottle chips [2]. - Volatility and Percentiles: The current 20 - day rolling volatilities are 30.73% for ethylene glycol, 44.15% for PX, 39.28% for PTA, and 31.25% for bottle chips, with their 3 - year historical percentiles being 91.3%, 99.4%, 93.6%, and 98.6% respectively [2]. Polyester Hedging Strategy - Inventory Management: When the finished product inventory is high and there are concerns about the decline in ethylene glycol prices, strategies include short - selling ethylene glycol futures (25% at 4250 - 4350), buying put options (50% at 70 - 90) and selling call options (50% at 90 - 110) [2]. - Procurement Management: When the regular procurement inventory is low and procurement is based on orders, strategies include buying ethylene glycol futures (50% at 4000 - 4100), selling put options (75% at 130 - 150) [2]. Price and Spread Data - Prices: From April 21 to April 28, 2025, prices of various polyester - related products such as Brent crude oil, PX contracts, PTA contracts, etc., showed different degrees of changes. For example, Brent crude oil rose from 65.3 to 65.8 dollars per barrel [5][8]. - Spreads: There were also changes in various spreads such as TA1 - 5 month spread, EG1 - 5 month spread, etc. For example, the TA1 - 5 month spread changed from 56 to - 60 yuan per ton [8]. - Warehouse Receipts: PTA, MEG, and PX warehouse receipts also changed. For example, PTA warehouse receipts decreased from 131530 to 109778 [8]. - Processing Fees and Profits: Processing fees and profits of different products showed different trends. For example, POY profit increased from - 2 to 11 yuan per ton, while DTY profit decreased from 125 to 75 yuan per ton [8]. - Sales Ratios: The sales ratios of polyester filament and short - fiber also changed. The polyester filament sales ratio increased from 35.8% to 94.7%, while the polyester short - fiber sales ratio decreased from 87% to 74% [8].
