尿素早评：关键还是在出口-20251017

Report Summary 1) Report Industry Investment Rating No investment rating is provided in the report. 2) Core Viewpoint The rebound of the urea futures market is mainly due to short - term profit - taking by short - sellers. The spot market remains dull, and the previously expected upward drivers (chemical anti - involution and exports) have not materialized. If there is no further change in exports and domestic agricultural demand weakens, domestic demand may struggle to absorb high supply pressure, and urea prices may continue to fluctuate at low levels. However, considering the current low valuation of urea, it is not advisable to continue short - selling. The recommended trading strategy is to wait and see [1]. 3) Summary by Related Catalogs a) Price Changes - Urea Futures Prices: On October 16, compared with October 15, UR01 decreased by 4 yuan/ton (0.25%), UR05 decreased by 6 yuan/ton (0.36%), and UR09 decreased by 2 yuan/ton (0.12%) [1]. - Domestic Spot Prices (Small - Granule): Shandong decreased by 10 yuan/ton (0.65%), Shanxi increased by 10 yuan/ton ( - 0.68%), Henan decreased by 10 yuan/ton (0.65%), while prices in Hebei, Northeast, and Jiangsu remained unchanged [1]. - Basis and Spreads: The spread between Shandong spot and UR increased by 4 yuan/ton, and the 01 - 05 spread decreased by 2 yuan/ton [1]. - Upstream Costs: The prices of anthracite coal in Henan and Shanxi remained unchanged at 1000 yuan/ton and 880 yuan/ton respectively [1]. - Downstream Prices: The prices of compound fertilizer (45%S) in Shandong and Henan remained unchanged at 2900 yuan/ton and 2500 yuan/ton respectively.
