生猪市场周报：出栏节奏或略有放缓，关注下旬需求-20250815

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - Pig prices declined, with the main contract 2511 dropping 1.66% weekly. The supply side saw an accelerated pace of weight - reducing sales in the first half of the month, increasing market supply. However, after price drops, farmers showed signs of resistance, and the sales pace might slow down. The demand side had sufficient pig supply, with improved demand in some areas and a mild increase in slaughterhouse operating rates. With the upcoming school openings and double - festival stocking, demand is expected to improve significantly. Overall, the previous increase in farmers' sales pressured spot prices, but the resistance sentiment may change the short - term sales pace, leading to stable price adjustments. Technically, the 2511 contract corrected, but the current weight - reducing sales will ease future supply pressure, and with expected demand improvement, the decline of futures prices is limited. It is recommended to wait for corrections and try long positions with light positions [6]. 3.
