Group 1: Report Industry Investment Ratings - The investment rating for the apple industry is neutral [4] - The investment rating for the red date industry is neutral to bullish [9] Group 2: Core Views of the Report - For the apple market, the spot market is dull, the出库 of old - stored Fuji apples is average, and the substitution effect of competing fruits is strengthening. The price of early - maturing apples is chaotic, and the overall sales in the distribution area are slow. The inventory of apples is at a low level in the same period in the past five years, and the de - stocking speed has slowed down compared with the same period last year [2][3] - For the red date market, there are differences in the views on the new - season jujube production. The inventory in the distribution area is at a high level in recent years, and the price of high - quality goods has risen due to the transfer of goods and downstream restocking demand [8] Group 3: Summary by Related Catalogs Apple Market Market News and Important Data - Futures: The closing price of the apple 2510 contract yesterday was 7,940 yuan/ton, up 25 yuan/ton or 0.32% from the previous day [1] - Spot: The price of 80 first - and second - grade late Fuji in Shandong Qixia was 3.80 yuan/jin, unchanged from the previous day; the price of more than 70 semi - commercial late Fuji in Shaanxi Luochuan was 4.50 yuan/jin, unchanged from the previous day [1] Recent Market Information - The spot market is dull, the出库 of old - stored Fuji is average, with many deals at negotiated prices. The supply in the western producing areas is limited, and spot merchants mainly ship their own inventory. In Shandong, the number of merchants is small, and they are cautious in purchasing, mainly picking and bargaining. The overall出库 speed is slow, and the low - priced striped red apples are the main ones for sales. The demand in the distribution area is poor, and the impact of seasonal fruits is still obvious [2] Market Analysis - The apple futures price rose yesterday. The trading volume of early - maturing apples increased, but the price was a bit chaotic. The overall sales speed in the distribution area was slow, and the sales of different grades were differentiated. The trading of stored apples was still concentrated in Shandong. The de - stocking speed of stored Fuji apples in the production and distribution areas last week was still slow, and the price was gradually polarized. The substitution effect of competing fruits has strengthened, and the sales of early - maturing apples showed a trend of high opening and low closing [3] Strategy - A neutral strategy is recommended. If the terminal consumption remains weak and early - maturing Gala apples are listed, it is not conducive to the de - stocking of stored apples, and the spot price is likely to remain stable and weak [4] Red Date Market Market News and Important Data - Futures: The closing price of the red date 2601 contract yesterday was 11,115 yuan/ton, up 135 yuan/ton or 1.23% from the previous day [5] - Spot: The spot price of first - grade grey jujubes in Hebei was 9.20 yuan/kg, unchanged from the previous day [5] Recent Market Information - In the main producing areas of Xinjiang grey jujubes, the jujube trees are in the growth period, and jujube farmers are actively managing the orchards. The fruit - setting of the first - crop flowers in some orchards was average. In the Hebei Cuierzhuang market, 8 trucks of jujubes arrived, and the merchants purchased according to their needs, with a transaction volume of 20% - 30%. In the Guangdong Ruyifang market, 2 trucks of jujubes arrived, and the price was stable, but the number of merchants was small due to the weather [6][7] Market Analysis - The red date futures rose yesterday and reached the contract high during the session. The reduction in production in the producing areas was less than expected, and there were differences in the views on the new - season jujube production. The jujube trees in the main producing areas are in the physiological fruit - dropping stage. The inventory in the distribution area is at a high level in recent years, and the price of high - quality goods has risen due to the transfer of goods and downstream restocking demand [8] Strategy - A neutral - to - bullish strategy is recommended. The news from the producing areas has a great impact on the futures market. Given the expectation of production decline and the improvement in spot transactions, the market may run strongly in the future, and the growth of new - season red dates needs to be closely monitored [9]
