Report Overview - Report Title: Polypropylene Risk Management Daily Report - Report Date: August 7, 2025 - Analysts: Dai Yifan, Gu Hengye [1] Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Core Viewpoints - The recent supply-demand pattern of PP has shown limited overall changes. The supply side faces pressure from new device commissioning and the recovery of PDH profits, while the demand side remains weak, and the supply-demand imbalance cannot be fundamentally alleviated in the short term, keeping PP in a weak pattern. However, recently, due to more disturbances from macro sentiment and coking coal prices, PP has generally shown a volatile pattern [3] Summary by Directory Polypropylene Price Range Forecast - The monthly price range forecast for polypropylene is 7000 - 7200. The current 20 - day rolling volatility is 8.48%, and the historical percentile of the current volatility over 3 years is 6.7% [2] Polypropylene Hedging Strategy - Inventory Management: For high product inventory and concerns about price drops, shorting PP2509 futures with a 25% hedging ratio in the 7150 - 7200 range can lock in profits. Selling the PP2509C7300 call option with a 50% hedging ratio in the 10 - 50 range can collect premiums to reduce costs [2] - Procurement Management: For low regular procurement inventory and the need to purchase based on orders, buying PP2509 futures with a 50% hedging ratio in the 7000 - 7050 range can lock in procurement costs. Selling the PP2509P7000 put option with a 75% hedging ratio in the 10 - 50 range can collect premiums to reduce procurement costs and lock in the spot purchase price if the price drops [2] Core Contradictions - Supply - side pressure comes from new device commissioning and PDH profit recovery. Multiple devices were commissioned in the middle of the year, and two Daxie devices are expected to be commissioned in early August, increasing supply. The recovery of PDH production profits has led to the return of device operation, further intensifying supply - side pressure. Demand is weak, and there is no strong driver for demand growth [3] Bullish Factors - The "anti - involution" policy has driven up coking coal prices, providing cost support for polyolefins. Inventory is at a neutral level [4] Bearish Factors - Two Daxie devices are expected to be commissioned in early August, and multiple devices have been commissioned from June to August, significantly increasing PP production capacity. PDH profits have recovered, and marginal devices are gradually returning. Exports are seasonally weak, and the export window is currently closed [5] Polypropylene Daily Report Table - Futures Prices and Spreads: On August 7, 2025, the polypropylene main - contract basis was - 15 yuan/ton, with a daily change of 3 yuan/ton and a weekly change of - 7 yuan/ton.
