Core View of the Report - Although Trump made remarks about the end of the war, the conflict between Iran and the US - Israel has not ceased, and the passage through the Strait of Hormuz has not resumed. The number of passing oil tankers remains low. Measures such as releasing strategic oil reserves cannot solve the key supply bottleneck [2] - The high - sulfur fuel oil (FU) has relatively prominent exposure and elasticity to geopolitical risks. There is also an incremental substitution demand for natural gas and crude oil in power generation and refinery terminals. The significant increase in the cracking spread of gasoline and diesel (especially diesel) boosts the valuation of low - sulfur fuel oil. The tightening of Middle East crude oil supply leads to a decline in the production of low - sulfur fuel oil, and more ships choose ports in Asia - Pacific for refueling, strengthening the market structure [2] - The cracking spread, monthly spread, and spot premium of low - sulfur fuel oil have risen significantly. The low - high sulfur price spread has rebounded significantly from a low level. In terms of valuation, low - sulfur fuel oil has more room to reach the historical peak compared to high - sulfur fuel oil [2] 3.
