Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Core Viewpoints - For PTA, with low processing fees, additional maintenance has increased. Although filament sales are weak, there is limited scope for further production cuts in the short - term. Bottle - chip inventories are continuously decreasing at low operation rates. Overall, polyester operation is expected to stabilize and has upward potential, and the supply - demand situation is expected to improve periodically. Attention can be paid to the opportunity of expanding processing fees at low prices [3] - For MEG, domestic unit restarts are partially delayed, and overseas unexpected maintenance exists. Port inventories are expected to remain low with limited short - term inventory accumulation pressure.
