Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Group 2: Core Viewpoints of the Report - The supply reduction supports the price resilience of PTA, and its driving force depends on the terminal volume. The polyester industry chain presents a demand - driven repair, with PX - PTA prices likely to enter a bottom - oscillation stage. The inventory pressure of polyester staple fiber and some filament varieties still needs continuous terminal volume to digest, while POY has more price elasticity due to healthy inventory [2][7] Group 3: Summary by Relevant Catalogs 1. Daily Market Summary PTA & PX - On September 10, the PX main contract closed at 6,770.0 yuan/ton, up 0.65% from the previous trading day, with a basis of - 149.0 yuan/ton. The PTA main contract closed at 4,698.0 yuan/ton, up 0.43% from the previous trading day, with a basis of - 88.0 yuan/ton. The Brent crude oil main contract closed at 66.53 dollars/barrel, and WTI at 62.77 dollars/barrel. The total transaction volume of the Light Textile City was 702.0 million meters, with a 15 - day average transaction of 662.8 million meters [2] - On the supply side, there is a short - term tightening expectation for PX supply. The PX plant operating rate has decreased slightly, and the PTA load has dropped, which may force PX manufacturers to adjust the operating rate. For PTA, some large - scale plants have entered maintenance, and the overall industry load has dropped below 75%, which may support the PTA price [3] - On the demand side, the polyester demand still has resilience, but the risk of marginal weakening increases. The current polyester operating rate remains at a high level of 89%, but attention should be paid to the continuous accumulation of terminal grey fabric inventory and the fading of the pre - effect of European and American autumn and winter orders, which may suppress the subsequent replenishment momentum [4] - On the inventory side, the de - stocking intensity of PTA factories is a key variable. Although the absolute value of social inventory is still at the median level in the past three years, the available inventory days have decreased from 4.5 days to 3.8 days (a month - on - month decrease of 15.6%), indicating a marginal relief of inventory pressure. If the downstream stocking demand is released later, the PTA price center may move up [5] Polyester - On September 10, the short - fiber main contract closed at 6,364.0 yuan/ton, up 0.19% from the previous trading day. The spot price in the East China market was 6,465.0 yuan/ton, up 5.0 yuan/ton from the previous trading day, with a basis of 101.0 yuan/ton [6] - The current supply - demand pattern of the polyester industry chain is differentiated but generally stable. On the supply side, the prices of PX and PTA futures have declined, indicating loose supply or weakened cost support. On the demand side, the MA15 data of the China Light Textile City's trading volume has increased by 17% from September 1 to September 10, indicating a recovery in terminal weaving demand. On the inventory side, the inventory of polyester staple fiber is 6.97 days, far exceeding the five - year average of 4.96 days. Among filament varieties, the inventories of FDY (26.4 days) and DTY (29.7 days) are also higher than the historical averages, while the POY inventory of 17.4 days is lower than the historical center [6] 2.

The trading volume of long - fiber fabrics was 558 million meters, and that of short - fiber fabrics was 145 million meters [9] - Industrial chain load rates: The load rates of PTA factories, polyester factories, and Jiangsu and Zhejiang looms remained unchanged on September 10 compared with the previous day [9] - Inventory days: The inventory days of polyester staple fiber, POY, FDY, and DTY increased on September 10 compared with previous data [9] 3. Industrial Dynamics and Interpretations Macro Dynamics - On September 9, the U.S. Senate panel will vote on the nomination of the Federal Reserve governor in Milan on Wednesday, and a full - scale vote will be held after approval. The New York Fed survey shows that the public expects the unemployment rate and unemployment risk to rise and expects the Fed to cut interest rates next week. Saudi Arabia has lowered the crude oil price for the Asian market. China's imports and exports in August increased by 3.5% year - on - year to 3.87 trillion yuan [10] Supply - Demand - Demand - On September 10, the total trading volume of the Light Textile City was 702.0 million meters, a month - on - month increase of 10.38%. The trading volume of long - fiber fabrics was 558.0 million meters, and that of short - fiber fabrics was 145.0 million meters [11] 4. Industrial Chain Data Charts - The report provides multiple data charts, including PX and PTA main futures and basis, PX and PTA spot prices, PX capacity utilization, PTA futures month - spreads, short - fiber futures month - spreads, industrial chain load rates, polyester staple fiber and filament production and sales, China Light Textile City trading volume moving average, and polyester product inventory days [12][14][16][18][20][21][24][25][27][29][30][31] 5. Appendix: Big Model Inference Process - Analyze the future price trends of PTA and PX from three dimensions: supply, demand, and inventory. On the supply side, the price increases of PX and PTA main contracts may indicate supply tightness, and the impact of crude oil price trends on PX cost needs to be considered. On the demand side, the trading volume data of the Light Textile City is crucial. High trading volume may indicate increased demand for PTA. On the inventory side, although the PTA factory inventory data is missing, the basis and price trends can be used to infer the inventory level. Finally, comprehensively analyze the three aspects to predict the future price trends of PTA and PX [38][39][40]
