- Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided 2. Core View of the Report - The urea market is affected by market sentiment and demand changes. The current fundamentals are weak, with supply pressure increasing as the daily production exceeds 200,000 tons, and demand showing marginal weakness. The market may experience a phased rebound when agricultural demand picks up, but there are risks of market fluctuations [1] 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Strategy Analysis - The urea main contract opened and closed lower on the day, and the spot market was affected by the futures market. After the pre - holiday pre - order transactions were completed, the subsequent transactions stagnated due to the futures decline. The fundamentals remained weak, with the supply side having an increased start - up rate and some factories planning to resume production after the May Day holiday. The demand side saw improved transactions after the futures rebounded yesterday, but with the holiday stocking almost over and the decline of the futures today, it is expected that tomorrow's transactions will be weak. Some agricultural dealers started low - price stocking, but the demand from compound fertilizer factories was the main factor. The raw material urea inventory in factories was not under great pressure, and the start - up load declined. The summer fertilizer demand after the holiday would have limited incremental demand for urea. Agricultural demand was expected to relieve supply pressure in May [1] Futures and Spot Market Conditions - Futures: The urea main 2509 contract opened and closed lower at 1770 yuan/ton and finally closed at 1735 yuan/ton, with a decline of 2.09%.
