Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Core Viewpoints of the Report - The production and capacity utilization rate of PE increased significantly last week due to the restart of devices at Jilin Petrochemical, Maoming Petrochemical, etc. The downstream start - up rate of PE increased slightly week - on - week, and the agricultural film start - up rate continued seasonal growth. The inventory of production enterprises and social inventory are in a de - stocking trend with little inventory pressure. The oil - based and coal - based costs decreased to varying degrees, and the profits were repaired. This week, affected by the maintenance of devices at Qilu Petrochemical, Dushanzi Petrochemical, and Daqing Petrochemical, the production and capacity utilization rate of PE are expected to decline month - on - month. In the long - term, the PE supply may increase significantly. The demand for downstream greenhouse films is gradually reaching the annual high, but the orders and start - up performance of agricultural films are both worse than previous years. Affected by the US's claim to impose additional tariffs on China, international oil prices fell significantly on Friday.
