Industry Investment Rating - The investment rating for the pulp industry is "Oscillating Weakly" [1] Core View - The SP2509 contract rebounded with a decrease in positions today, closing at 5076, up 0.56%. From a supply - demand perspective, the weakness persists. The falling external quotes and high - fluctuating imports suppress price increases. High port inventories and weak demand in the off - season make de - stocking difficult and create large inventory pressure. Although there will be a peak demand season after August with some stocking needs, it hasn't started yet. However, the current absolute price is at a low level, and continuous price drops may touch the upper edge of overseas pulp mills' cost lines, which will resist further price declines. With the policy influence of the meeting of the Central Financial and Economic Commission on July 1st, the commodity has short - term upward rebound momentum due to sentiment. The strategy suggests short - term waiting and seeing [4] Summary According to Related Catalogs Price Forecast and Volatility - The monthly price range forecast for pulp is 4900 - 5400.
