Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided Group 2: Core Views of the Report - Last week's view was that the guidance price was suppressing, and the spot market was stable; this week's view is that due to policy suppression, urea will mainly fluctuate. Despite a decrease in daily output to around 210,000 tons, it remains at a high level. International supply has tightened due to the escalation of the US - Iran conflict, but the impact on the domestic market is limited as there are no new domestic quotas. Although the operating rate of compound fertilizer plants has increased, procurement has basically stopped. After a significant inventory build - up during the Spring Festival, urea enterprise inventories started to decline this week. With the approaching demand, downstream buyers are starting to purchase, but the upside of the spot price is limited under policy suppression, and the futures will mainly fluctuate widely. It is expected that urea will continue to fluctuate. Key factors to watch are the Middle East situation and domestic policies. The trading strategy is to go short on a single - side basis without chasing the short, and to wait and see for arbitrage and over - the - counter trading [4]. Group 3: Summary by Directory 1.
