Report Summary Industry Investment Rating The report does not explicitly provide an overall industry investment rating. However, based on the analysis of fuel oil fundamentals, the overall price is expected to be slightly bullish, with FU2510 expected to trade in the range of 2820 - 2860 and LU2511 in the range of 3510 - 3560 [3]. Core Viewpoints - The Asian low - sulfur fuel oil market structure has declined slightly, but expected lower Western arbitrage cargo arrivals in September and moderate bunker demand may limit the market's downside in the short term. The 9 - 10 month swap spread of Singapore 380CST high - sulfur fuel oil is $1.25 per ton, and the spot discount narrowed to - 42 cents per ton on August 29 [3]. - The basis shows that the spot price is at a premium to the futures price, which is bullish. The inventory in Singapore decreased by 2.03 million barrels in the week of August 27, also a bullish factor. However, the high - sulfur and low - sulfur main positions are short, with an increase in short positions for high - sulfur and a shift from long to short for low - sulfur, which is bearish. Overall, the price is expected to be slightly bullish due to the overnight geopolitical risk event and slightly improved fundamentals [3]. - The recent market is driven by the resonance of supply affected by geopolitical risks and neutral demand. There are both bullish and bearish factors. Bullish factors include the possible intensification of sanctions against Russia, while bearish factors are the unproven optimistic demand and weak upstream crude oil prices [4].
