Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2. Core Viewpoints - Today, the futures price of the Container Shipping Index (European Line) (EC) oscillated at a low level with a slight upward trend. As of the close, the prices of EC contracts showed mixed movements. The main reason for the overall oscillatory trend of today's futures price is that although the US announced a 100% tariff increase on China, subsequent statements on social media by Trump and Vance were more conciliatory, leading to an oscillating macro - sentiment. Additionally, the near - month contracts rebounded due to CMA CGM's announcement of a November freight rate increase. In the short term, the futures price is likely to continue oscillating. It is necessary to closely monitor the cease - fire process in Gaza and Sino - US relations. Strategically, one can generally remain on the sidelines or attempt a 10 - 12 positive spread strategy [3]. 3.

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints - Today, the futures price of the Container Shipping Index (European Line) (EC) opened lower, declined, and then fluctuated upwards. By the close, all EC contracts' prices had declined to varying degrees, with the 02 and 06 contracts dropping by over 10%. [3] - The initial low - opening and decline of today's futures price were mainly due to the preliminary agreement on the Gaza cease - fire negotiation, which negatively affected market sentiment and caused the futures price, especially that of the far - month contracts, to fall. Additionally, Maersk's announcement of the European Line booking quotes for late October, which were the same as the previous week's, led to a recovery in the futures price. [3] - In the short term, the futures price is likely to continue fluctuating. However, given past precedents, the Gaza cease - fire process may be volatile, so relevant situations need close attention. Strategically, it is advisable to mainly adopt a wait - and - see approach or conduct intraday short - term operations. [3] 3.

The latest SCFI European Line dropped below $1,000/TEU, which may bring certain negative factors to the market. In the short term, the futures price is more likely to continue to oscillate or oscillate downward; the 12 - contract can continue to focus on low - buying opportunities, and overall, it is mainly advisable to wait and see or conduct intraday short - selling [3]. 3.
