Report Title - Weekly Report on Soybean Meal [1] Report Date - January 12, 2026 [3] Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Core Viewpoints - Last week, the CBOT March soybean contract rose 15.5 to close at 1062.75 cents per bushel, a 1.48% increase; the soybean meal 05 contract rose 37 to close at 2786 yuan per ton, a 1.35% increase; the South China soybean meal spot price rose 60 to 3140 yuan per ton, a 1.95% increase; the rapeseed meal 05 contract fell 27 to close at 2338 yuan per ton, a 1.14% decrease; the Guangxi rapeseed meal spot price fell 10 to 2510 yuan per ton, a 0.4% decrease [5][8]. - The external market stopped falling and stabilized. The market is waiting for the upcoming USDA report, and funds are adjusting their positions. Currently, it is expected that both yield and exports may be lowered. Pay attention to the guidance of the report. The meal market is generally oscillating, with soybean meal relatively stronger than rapeseed meal. The main reason is that the Prime Minister of Canada will visit China, and market rumors suggest that the additional tariff on rapeseed meal may be cancelled. Driven by sentiment, funds increased short positions, causing rapeseed meal to weaken. On the one hand, the arrival of soybeans has decreased month - on - month, and on the other hand, the pre - Spring Festival stocking expectation provides support for the near - term price of soybean meal [5][8]. - The Prime Minister of Canada is about to visit China, and rapeseed meal has weakened under the influence of sentiment. Pay attention to the progress of China - Canada trade agreements. The January USDA report in the United States is expected to show possible decreases in yield and exports, with little change in ending stocks. Funds are adjusting positions and waiting for the report. The external US soybean market has stopped falling and is oscillating. The good weather in South America continues, and the overall expectation of a bumper harvest has increased. The expected decrease in domestic soybean arrivals and the pre - Spring Festival stocking demand support the spot price, which is relatively firm. The auction of state - reserved imported soybeans restarted this week, cooling the market to some extent. It is expected that the Dalian soybean meal will oscillate in the short term [5][11].
