  1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The supply - side shows that refineries have reduced production, alleviating supply pressure. The demand is currently below the historical average level. The cost support is expected to weaken in the short - term, and the asphalt futures price is expected to fluctuate narrowly in the range of 3005 - 3053 for the 2601 contract [8]. - There are both positive and negative factors in the market. The positive factor is that the relatively high crude oil cost provides some support, while the negative factors include insufficient demand for high - price goods and a downward trend in overall demand with an increasing expectation of an economic recession in Europe and the United States [10][11]. 3.
