Report Date - The report is dated August 10, 2025 [1] Last Week's Views and Logic Palm Oil - Domestic macro - sentiment pushed palm oil to a three - year high, but without strong supply themes, the price was hard to rise further and mainly fluctuated at a high level, waiting for the inventory - reduction inflection point in the producing areas. The palm oil 09 contract rose 0.79% last week [2] Soybean Oil - A large number of domestic soybean oil export orders ignited trading enthusiasm, the soybean - palm oil price spread narrowed significantly, and soybean oil showed signs of a catch - up rise. The soybean oil 09 contract rose 1.52% last week [2] This Week's Views and Logic Palm Oil - Malaysia's inventory peak this year has been gradually digested by the market since April. There is no new significant negative factor in the palm oil fundamentals, and the market has started to trade the inventory - reduction trend in the second half of the year. Domestic macro - sentiment pushed palm oil to a three - year high [3] - In July, Malaysia's palm oil production is expected to be less than 180 tons, and the export volume in the first 25 days was poor, estimated to be less than 140 tons. With the continuous driving effect of European biodiesel, the demand in the producing areas is expected to remain high. Malaysia will continue to accumulate inventory in July, but conservatively estimated not to exceed 2.2 million tons [3] - In Indonesia, the price difference between Indonesia and Malaysia remains high, and the prices of various palm oil products and bunches in the Indonesian producing areas are high. The sentiment of traders reflected in the CPO export premium is relatively positive, and palm oil is quite resistant to price drops at present [3] - Rumors of Indonesia's B50 policy and export ban are considered to have a low correlation with the recent price increase of palm oil. The production recovery in Indonesia may fall short of expectations again under the strong demand for European biodiesel raw materials, and the inventory will hover between 1.5 and 3 million tons this year [3] - In the consumer areas, except for sunflower oil, the import profit of crude palm oil has been higher than that of crude soybean oil. Channel inventory reconstruction is underway. As long as the monthly import volume can be maintained above 800,000 tons, it is difficult for Malaysia's palm oil inventory to exceed 2.3 million tons [3] - The market has great differences in Malaysia's palm oil production this year. If Malaysia and Indonesia maintain good yields in August as in the same period last year and from April to May this year, there will be greater inventory - accumulation pressure from August to September. If Malaysia's palm oil inventory cannot exceed 2.3 million tons, the market may have gradually digested this year's inventory peak [3] - August is the last window for the release of palm oil supply pressure. If no effective price pressure is formed during this period, it will be difficult for significant negative supply - side factors to appear in the later oil market. If inventory accumulates more than expected from August to September, combined with the concentrated listing of European rapeseed and potential downward pressure on the crude oil side, palm oil may not reflect potential positive factors in the fourth quarter prematurely and may still have room for correction. However, be vigilant about the positive sentiment caused by earlier - than - expected inventory reduction due to lower - than - expected production from August to September [3][4] - The soybean - palm oil price spread does not have the driving force to return to parity this year. Continuously pay attention to opportunities to go long on palm oil at low levels [4] Soybean Oil - In mid - to - late July, multiple major producing areas in the US Midwest received good rainfall, which is conducive to the improvement of yield expectations. Before the release of the USDA August report, if there is no more positive progress in Sino - US trade negotiations, CBOT soybeans will maintain a weak fluctuation. Only positive news from Sino - US trade negotiations can drive the rebound of US soybeans [4] - The weak domestic situation of soybean oil has been reversed by a large number of recent export orders. Oil mills' crushing operations are maintained at a very high level. Although domestic apparent demand and提货 are poor, oil mills actively export after finding export trade profits. If this trend continues, it is expected to drive the Chinese soybean - palm oil price spread closer to the international spread [4] - If US soybeans for the October shipment have not been actually purchased, there is still some upward space for the monthly spread and Brazilian premiums, and the prices of oil tanks may be underestimated, which may benefit soybean oil [4] - After the high - production period of palm oil in the third - quarter end, if Sino - US trade issues lead to a soybean import gap, there may be potential upward themes for Brazilian premiums, and there may be opportunities to go long on soybean oil and narrow the spread between rapeseed oil and soybean oil [4] Overall View - As the last window for the release of palm oil supply pressure, if the production increase in August fails to form effective price pressure, it will be difficult for significant negative supply - side factors to appear later. Be vigilant about the positive sentiment caused by earlier - than - expected inventory reduction due to lower - than - expected production in Malaysia and Indonesia from July to August [5] - The soybean - palm oil price spread does not have the driving force to return to parity this year. Continuously pay attention to opportunities to go long on palm oil at low levels [5] - The current driving factors for soybean oil are US soybean weather, the sustainability of soybean oil exports, and the results of Sino - US trade negotiations. After the high - production period of palm oil in the third - quarter end, if Sino - US trade issues lead to a soybean import gap, there may be potential upward themes for Brazilian premiums, and there may be opportunities to go long on soybean oil and narrow the spread between rapeseed oil and soybean oil. Currently, the soybean sector lacks its own effective driving force and mainly follows the trend of the oil sector, and the soybean - palm oil price spread fluctuates in a range with a slightly upward trend [5] Disk Basic Market Data Price and Volume Data - Palm oil main contract: opened at 8,918 yuan/ton, reached a high of 9,076 yuan/ton, a low of 8,746 yuan/ton, and closed at 8,980 yuan/ton, up 0.79%.
