1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The short - term arrival of logs at ports remains low, providing some support to the supply side. The off - season of shipments from New Zealand and rising overseas quotes are expected to lead to a gradual decrease in arrivals. - Log demand is in the off - season, with weak port out - bound shipments. Affected by weather and low real - estate start - up rates, demand is expected to remain weak, but the decline space is limited. - Short - term arrival reduction may lead to continuous inventory reduction, but the overall inventory reduction amplitude may be limited due to weak downstream demand. - Spot prices are relatively stable, with a slight decline in the off - season. Future arrival reduction may provide some support. The 09 contract is expected to remain volatile. [7][9][11][17] 3. Summary According to the Table of Contents Part 1: Log Overview Supply Side - Overseas: In the week of 2025/7/11, the number of arriving ships was 10, a decrease of 3 compared to the previous week; the arrival volume was 34.35 million cubic meters, a decrease of 9.95 million cubic meters. The import volume of coniferous logs was 219.07 million cubic meters, a slight increase of 0.61 million cubic meters. The import volume of radiata pine was 169.00 million cubic meters, an increase of 3.55 million cubic meters. The import volume of spruce - fir was 12.00 million cubic meters, a decrease of 0.31 million cubic meters, and the import volume of other coniferous logs was 38.07 million cubic meters, a decrease of 2.63 million cubic meters. - From the perspective of New Zealand's shipping seasonality, June and July are the off - seasons. Rising overseas quotes have curbed the import willingness of domestic traders, and arrivals are expected to decrease gradually. [7] Demand and Inventory Side - Demand: The weekly national shipment volume was 41.16 million cubic meters, a decrease of 5.7 million cubic meters compared to the previous week. The demand in various regions showed a downward trend. The apparent demand was 35.60 million cubic meters, a decrease of 22.5 million cubic meters. - Inventory: The inventory in Shandong and Jiangsu showed different trends. The total inventory was 376.25 million cubic meters, a decrease of 1.3 million cubic meters. Short - term arrival reduction may lead to inventory reduction, but the amplitude may be limited due to weak demand. [9] Price and Spread - Price: The overseas quote of radiata pine increased slightly, while the spot price decreased slightly but remained relatively stable. The price of wood squares was stable, and the futures price showed a downward trend. - Spread: The spot spread was relatively stable, and the futures spread and basis also showed a stable trend. The basis can be considered at the level of 5.9m medium - grade A radiata pine, with a reference size difference of 8%, equivalent to about 780 - 790 yuan per cubic meter on the futures market. [11][13] Strategy Recommendation - The spot market is stable, arrivals are decreasing, and inventory is fluctuating. The futures market is expected to remain volatile. Pay attention to downstream start - up and port inventory.
