- Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content 2. Core Views of the Report - This week, fuel oil prices continued to decline at the beginning of the week, stabilized, and rebounded slightly near the weekend. For high - sulfur fuel oil, Middle - East exports continued to surge, with most of the increase coming from Saudi Arabia and Iran. Considering the upcoming end of Saudi Arabia's major maintenance, the short - term weakness of high - sulfur fuel oil may not be reversed. However, Russian exports have started to decline, and a large amount of spot has been piled up in floating storage near Russia, which will support high - sulfur fuel oil prices. For low - sulfur fuel oil, the number of spot goods flowing to the Asia - Pacific region has decreased due to refinery maintenance in Brazil and European refineries' deep - processing of heavy components to increase gasoline and diesel production. But Brazilian and Kuwaiti refineries are expected to resume operations next month, which will increase supply and put pressure on prices. The spot market's transaction premium has declined, and prices may fall further as supply recovery is reflected in shipping data. - Valuation: FU is estimated to be in the range of 2400 - 2500, and LU is estimated to be in the range of 3000 - 3250. - Strategies: 1) Unilateral: Fuel oil prices will remain weak in the short term. 2) Inter - period: The contango structure of FU and LU spreads is difficult to reverse under the condition of loose supply. 3) Inter - variety: The short - term cracking spreads of FU and LU have reached a low level; the LU - FU spread will gradually decline in the short term.

[74] Futures Market Indicators and Internal - External Spreads - Review and Logic: This week, Asia - Pacific fuel oil prices continued to decline, and the Zhoushan market followed the same trend. The internal - external spreads began to shrink from the previous high. For FU, the short - position holdings still exceeded the long - position holdings, causing FU to underperform the external spot market, and the spread continued to shrink. For LU, both long and short positions were gradually closing, the number of warehouse receipts remained stable after the delivery, and a large amount of low - sulfur components were expected to enter Zhoushan at the end of the month, so the internal - external spread may continue to narrow in the short term.
