市场成交转弱，库存继续累积

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Unilateral: Neutral; Cross - period: 09 - 01 reverse spread; Cross - variety: None [3] 2. Core View of the Report - The market trading atmosphere has weakened. After a slight price increase in some areas, the trading volume is average. The downstream agricultural demand has entered the off - season, and the industrial demand is weak due to the impact of the military parade. The urea production is at a high level, and the upstream inventory is still relatively high year - on - year. With the release of new production capacity, the future supply - demand of urea remains loose. The profit of coal - based urea is acceptable, but the cost - side support is weak. August is the export window period, and the urea export continues with narrow fluctuations in port inventory. The Indian IPL urea import tender has a confirmed winning bid of 207.5 tons. Follow - up attention should be paid to the changes in export dynamics [2] 3.
