The short - term oil price has large two - way fluctuation risks, and the long - term core variable is the smooth passage of the Strait of Hormuz [1]. - Fuel Oil & Low - Sulfur Fuel Oil: With the expectation of geopolitical easing, fuel oil prices followed the decline of crude oil. The supply gap of high - sulfur fuel oil cannot be fully hedged, and low - sulfur fuel oil is supported by supply reduction and high cracking spreads [20]. - Asphalt: Domestic refineries are worried about future imported raw materials, reducing asphalt supply. The fundamentals have marginal improvement expectations, and the price will follow the oil price with limited downside [21]. Precious Metals - Precious Metals: Overnight precious metals rebounded.

Domestically, the sugar market is in a pattern of weak reality and strong expectation [41]. - Apple: Apple futures prices continued to decline. The trading focus is on the demand side.
