Report Summary 1) Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. 2) Core View of the Report Recently, the futures market has been strong due to shipping companies' additional sailings cancellations and good cargo receipts on multiple routes at the end of October. The current valuation of the December contract is high, but considering the upcoming price increase announcements and the upward momentum during the long - term contract signing season, the strategy of buying on dips for the December contract remains unchanged. There may be short - term downward fluctuations, and attention should be paid to possible price cuts by shipping companies in early November. Against the backdrop of geopolitical uncertainties, the February contract may have more upside potential with the arrival of the peak season, but geopolitical fluctuations also exist. The April contract is recommended to be shorted on rallies, but it may follow the near - term contracts and show a slightly stronger trend during the peak season from November to January, and positions can be gradually established [1]. 3) Summary by Relevant Catalogs Futures Contract Data - Contract Prices and Changes: On October 24, 2025, the closing prices of EC2510, EC2512, EC2602, EC2604, and EC2606 were 1136.1, 1793.1, 1582.0, 1171.8, and 1374.8 respectively, with changes of - 0.04%, 0.27%, - 0.06%, 0.03%, and 1.59% [1]. - Volume and Open Interest: The trading volumes of EC2512, EC2602, and EC2604 were 21899, 2589, and 1290 respectively, and the trading volume of EC2510 was 932.
