As the National Day holiday in China approaches, there are many uncertainties in the geopolitical situation, and oil prices have an upward driving force. On the other hand, OPEC+ will announce its production increase plan for November on October 5, and the supply side will remain under high pressure.

In addition, some refineries stopped producing asphalt and consumed inventory, driving the total inventory level of refineries to decline slightly. In the Yangtze River Delta market, the market trading was relatively dull as the National Day holiday approached, and downstream users purchased on demand. In the South China market, the reduction of rainfall in the Guangdong and Guangxi regions drove the sales of refineries and social inventories, and the sales volume of Foshan warehouse increased compared with the previous period, which was beneficial to the increase of asphalt prices [3][4]. - Logic Analysis: According to Baichuan Yingfu statistics, the operating rate of domestic asphalt plants on Monday this week was 40.35%, down 9.53% from last Thursday. The total inventory level of refineries was 25.89%, down 1.22% from last Thursday, and the social inventory rate was 34.07%, down 1.24% from last Thursday.

There are many uncertainties overseas during the National Day holiday in China, and the situation between the United States and Venezuela will continue to disrupt the supply expectation of asphalt raw materials. In the short term, the asphalt price is expected to oscillate at a high level, and the cracking spread is expected to be bearish in the medium term [4]. - Trading Strategy: Unilateral: Range oscillation; Arbitrage: The spread between asphalt and crude oil oscillates weakly; Options: Sell out - of - the - money call options on BU2512 [6].

The Primorsk port has resumed oil loading after being attacked last Friday, and large refineries such as Ryazan and Volgograd are also in the process of returning to normal. The high - sulfur exports in the Middle East have increased as the power generation demand has subsided, but Iran's exports are still restricted. Mexico's high - sulfur exports have continued to decline due to the commissioning of secondary devices in Olmeca and Tula. The summer power generation demand has completely subsided. Under the background of the decline of high - sulfur cracking and the low cost of tax reform, the feed demand support is still not obvious. The high - sulfur near - end inventory is still at a high level, suppressing the market price. The low - sulfur fuel oil spot window transaction price is at a low level, and the premium continues to decline.

The overall profit of the terminal is still poor. The supply - demand side provides limited driving force, and the price is greatly affected by the macro - level and the cost side [10][11]. - Trading Strategy: Unilateral: In the fourth quarter, the PX supply - demand margin is weakening, and the de - stocking amplitude is shrinking; the PTA supply - demand contradiction is alleviated, and the inventory accumulation pressure is not large; the terminal operating rate has increased, but the profit is poor.
