Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2. Core Viewpoints - On May 12, V2509 fluctuated strongly, closing at 4,836 yuan/ton. The supply side saw a 1.01% week-on-week increase in PVC capacity utilization to 80.34%. The demand side had a 2.01% week-on-week increase in downstream PVC开工率 to 45.99%, with the pipe开工率 up 5% to 48.13% and the profile开工率 up 2.5% to 35.9%. PVC social inventory decreased by 0.41% week-on-week to 651,000 tons, maintaining a destocking trend with low inventory pressure. In May, the number of PVC parking capacities will gradually increase, potentially easing future supply pressure. After the holiday, the开工 of downstream product enterprises recovered, but orders were lackluster. The joint statement of the China-US Geneva economic and trade talks was released, with both sides only retaining the imposed 10% tariff, which is beneficial for the export of domestic PVC flooring. In terms of exports, the Indian market is affected by BIS certification, anti-dumping duties, and the rainy season, and the US tariff on Vietnam has not been alleviated, which may affect the export of Chinese PVC raw materials. In terms of costs, there is an expectation of a decline in calcium carbide prices, but power rationing uncertainties still affect future prices; the ethylene US dollar market is stagnant, and prices are expected to remain stable. In the short term, the easing of China-US trade tensions gives a strong expectation to V2509, with attention paid to the pressure around 4,900 yuan/ton [3]. 3.
