Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - The investment rating for the asphalt industry is "sideways to bearish" for the unilateral strategy, with no specific ratings for inter - period, inter - variety, spot - futures, or options strategies [2] Group 2: Core View of the Report - The asphalt market's fundamental situation is average. Although crude oil prices rebounded slightly on the previous day, the potential increase in OPEC production and the slight decline in diluted asphalt discounts weakened the cost - side support for asphalt.
