Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - The soybean market is expected to maintain a range - bound trend, while the domestic soybean meal market is facing a situation of mixed long and short factors. The oil market is expected to have an upward trend in the fourth quarter but is currently subject to multiple constraints. The sugar market may continue to decline. The cotton market has potential downside risks. The egg market is in a bottom - building phase with limited short - term rebound space. The pig market has limited downside space in the short term but faces supply and hedging pressure in the medium term [3][4][9][12][15][18][21] Summary by Category Soybean/Materials - Market Situation: On Thursday, US soybeans continued to rebound, driven by the rise in US soybean oil and favorable US agricultural trade agreements. However, good North American weather limited the upside. Domestic soybean meal futures followed the rise of US soybeans, with spot prices increasing by 40 yuan/ton. The soybean import cost remained stable, and attention should be paid to Sino - US trade relations and new supply - side variables [3] - Trading Strategy: The soybean import cost is fluctuating, and the overall supply of soybeans or protein is still in surplus. The domestic soybean meal market has multiple factors at play. It is recommended to try long positions at the lower end of the cost range and pay attention to crushing margins and supply pressure at the upper end, waiting for progress on Sino - US tariffs and new supply - side drivers [4] Oil - Important Information: Malaysian palm oil exports and production data showed mixed trends. Indonesia is studying the possibility of increasing the biodiesel blending ratio to 50%. China and Australia are close to reaching a rapeseed purchase agreement. On Thursday, domestic palm oil continued to rise, and the overall commodity sentiment was positive [6][7] - Market Situation: The EPA policy, long - term B50 policy expectations, and limited Southeast Asian supply have raised the annual operating center of oils. However, there are still negative factors as Southeast Asian palm oil production has recovered significantly. Domestic spot basis is stable at a low level [7] - Trading Strategy: The US biodiesel policy supports the oil price center. If demand countries maintain normal imports and palm oil production is at a neutral level from July to September, inventory may remain stable, and there may be an upward trend in the fourth quarter due to the Indonesian B50 policy. However, the current high valuation and multiple constraints suggest a volatile outlook [9] Sugar - Important Information: On Thursday, Zhengzhou sugar futures showed a strong and volatile trend. The London ICE sugar contract had a certain amount of delivery. Domestic sugar spot prices were mostly stable, with some processing sugar mills lowering their prices [11] - Trading Strategy: China is in a good window for sugar imports, and there may be increased import pressure in the second half of the year. The current market situation is contrary to the theoretical price difference trend, and if the external market does not rebound significantly, the sugar price may continue to decline [12] Cotton - Important Information: On Thursday, Zhengzhou cotton futures continued to rise. China's textile and clothing exports in June 2025 showed a slight year - on - year decline but a month - on - month increase, and the cumulative exports from January to June increased year - on - year [14] - Trading Strategy: Although the Sino - US trade agreement has not been finalized, the cotton price has rebounded. The downstream consumption is average, and the expected issuance of sliding - scale import quotas from July to August is a potential negative factor for cotton prices [15] Egg - Important Information: Most egg prices in the country rose, with stable supply, low inventory, and increased purchasing intention from downstream traders [17] - Trading Strategy: Due to limited capacity clearance, the seasonal rebound of egg prices has been delayed. The current spot price is in a bottom - building phase, but the short - term rebound space is limited. For the near - term contracts, time is not favorable for long positions, and for the far - term contracts, it is advisable to wait for a rebound to short [18] Pig - Important Information: Domestic pig prices generally fell on the previous day, with sufficient supply from farmers and insufficient market digestion [20] - Trading Strategy: Since late June, the spot pig price has rebounded, indicating a seasonal reduction in supply. The second - fattening space still exists, which provides some support. In the short term, there may be room for long positions, but in the medium term, supply delay and hedging pressure need to be considered [21]
