- Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content 2. Core Views of the Report - PX: Multiple units have unexpectedly reduced their loads, so PX is expected to strengthen in the short - term. A long PX and short PTA strategy is recommended. With supply decreasing and demand increasing, PX is in a de - stocking pattern. The PX - naphtha spread is weak as raw material prices strengthen [6]. - PTA: Polyester staple fiber plans to cut production in July, increasing the long - term supply - demand pressure on PTA. However, the spot basis for the near - month contract remains high, so a long - near and short - far (positive spread) strategy is advisable. A long PX and short PTA strategy is also recommended. Supply is increasing while demand is decreasing, and it has entered a stock - building pattern this week [6][7]. - MEG: Iranian ethylene glycol units have stopped production, so MEG is expected to be in a short - term volatile and strengthening trend. Consider reducing the position of long PTA and short MEG. The profit of ethylene glycol units has weakened this week but is still at a high level, and the unit operating rate will significantly increase. Attention should be paid to the operating and shipping changes of Iranian ethylene glycol units due to the Israel - Iran conflict [7][8]. 3.
