Report Industry Investment Rating No mention in the report Core Viewpoints - For sugar, the current raw sugar price has fallen below the support of the Brazilian ethanol conversion price. After the start of the new Brazilian sugar - cane crushing season in April this year, there is a possibility of reducing the sugar - cane - to - sugar ratio. After the northern hemisphere starts to finish the sugar - cane crushing in February and the negative impact of increased production is basically realized, the international sugar price may rebound. The supply of imported sugar in China is gradually decreasing, and the short - term downward space of sugar price may be limited. It is advisable to wait and see for now [4] - For cotton, in the medium - to - long - term, with the reduction of the planting area in the new year and the positive macro - economic outlook, there is still room for cotton price to rise. Attention should be paid to the opportunity of low - buying before the Spring Festival [8] - For protein meal, affected by the sudden news from Canada, the price of rapeseed meal rebounded. The January USDA report data is slightly bearish, but the overall balance sheet is still better than that of the 2024/25 season. From the weekly sample data, the domestic soybean and soybean meal inventories decreased month - on - month. The short - term fundamentals are improving, and the protein meal price may be bottoming out [12] - For oils and fats, affected by the sudden news from Canada and the year - on - year decline in Malaysian palm oil production in January, the price of oils and fats rose significantly yesterday. In addition, the inventory of the three major domestic oils and fats has been decreasing month - on - month. The short - term fundamentals are improving. Wait for a pullback and then try to go long [17] - For eggs, the pre - festival stocking sentiment has boosted the spot price increase beyond expectations. The near - month contracts are driven to fluctuate strongly, but the overall supply is still abundant, and the demand is about to meet expectations. The near - month contracts have post - festival attributes and may fluctuate mainly. In the future, more attention should be paid to the pressure after the rebound. The far - end has a long - term positive expectation due to the peak of production capacity, but after the profit is given too early, the realization path is still uncertain. Pay attention to the selling pressure after the over - valuation [19] - For pigs, the demand support and the market's reluctance to sell due to the high fat - to - standard price difference support the limited short - term decline of the spot price. However, the expectation of inventory accumulation and the upcoming pre - festival supply release lead to the early weakening of the futures market. Considering the large supply pressure after the Spring Festival in the first half of the year and the expectation of inventory postponement, the futures discount is logical. There may still be short - selling opportunities after the rebound. Due to the limited reduction of production capacity, the improvement space of the far - end fundamentals is revised down. Pay attention to the lower support after the long - term decline [22] Summary by Commodity Sugar - Market Information: On Thursday, the Zhengzhou sugar futures price rebounded.
