It is recommended to focus on the support at the MA5 line. The core logic is that the supply - demand pattern is weakly stable, and steel prices are in high - level sideways movement [2] - The rebar supply - demand pattern is weakly stable. Supply is contracting as weekly output continues to decline, but production cuts may not last due to good profit margins and some product re - production. Demand is seasonally weak, with high - frequency demand indicators at low levels in recent years, suppressing steel prices. Although policy expectations drove up steel prices before, the optimistic sentiment is weakening, and the market logic returns to the industrial side. With cost support from strong raw materials, steel prices are expected to move sideways at high levels. Attention should be paid to the production and sales data released by Steelhome today [3] Group 4: Summary by Relevant Content 1. Variety View Reference - For the rebar 2510 contract, short - term, medium - term, and intraday views are provided.

There are also explanations for calculating price changes and definitions of different price trends [2] 2. Market Driving Logic - Supply: Weekly output of rebar is declining, but production cuts may not be sustainable due to good profit margins and product re - production. - Demand: Seasonal weakness, with high - frequency demand indicators at low levels in recent years, continuing to suppress steel prices. - Market situation: Policy - driven optimism is weakening, and the market logic returns to the industrial side. Cost support from strong raw materials exists. Steel prices are expected to move sideways at high levels, and attention should be paid to today's Steelhome production and sales data [3]

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - The current fundamental market of crude oil is healthy. With low inventories in Cushing, hurricane expectations, and Russia - related events, crude oil has upward momentum. However, the seasonal demand decline in mid - August will limit its upside. A target price of $70/barrel for WTI in the September hurricane season is set, and short - term long positions with profit - taking on dips are recommended [2]. - For methanol, the market is currently driven by news, with increased volatility and difficulty in operation. The upstream开工 continues to decline, and overseas supply disruptions are mostly priced in. The demand side is weak overall, and the upside is limited in the off - season. It is recommended to wait and see after the sharp rise [4]. - Regarding urea, although affected by short - term sentiment, the domestic supply - demand situation is acceptable. The price has support at the bottom but is also suppressed by high supply at the top. It is advisable to pay attention to long - position opportunities on dips [6]. - For rubber, NR and RU have been rising strongly, and the overall commodity market has strong bullish sentiment. The price is expected to be more likely to rise than fall in the second half of the year, with a medium - term bullish view. Short - term risks of pull - backs should be guarded against [8][11]. - For PVC, the pessimistic fundamental expectations have improved due to the extension of anti - dumping in India, but there are still pressures in supply - demand and valuation. The price is strong in the short term under the stimulation of anti - dumping extension and anti - involution sentiment [11]. - For benzene ethylene, the cost - side support has returned strongly, and the BZN spread is expected to repair. The price is expected to fluctuate following the cost side [12][13]. - For polyethylene, the cost - side support has returned, but due to high trader inventories and weak seasonal demand, the price is expected to oscillate downward [15]. - For polypropylene, in the context of weak supply and demand in the off - season, the price is expected to be bearish in July, and it is recommended to wait and see [16]. - For PX, after the end of the maintenance season, the load remains high. With high - level downstream PTA load and low inventory, there is limited short - term negative feedback from the polyester and terminal sectors. It is expected to continue de - stocking in the third quarter, and short - term long - position opportunities following crude oil on dips are worthy of attention [18][20]. - For PTA, supply is expected to continue to accumulate inventory, and demand is under pressure in the off - season. However, due to low inventory and improved processing fees, the negative feedback pressure is small. It is recommended to pay attention to long - position opportunities following PX on dips [21]. - For ethylene glycol, the fundamental situation is expected to turn from strong to weak, but short - term inventory de - stocking at a low level provides support for the valuation [22].

Report Industry Investment Ratings No relevant content provided. Core Views Polyester Industry - PX: Although recently affected by rising oil prices and positive domestic commodity sentiment, its rebound is under pressure due to postponed domestic plant maintenance, recovering overseas supply, potential PTA plant maintenance, and weakening terminal demand. However, considering future PTA plant startups, its supply - demand is expected to be tight, and it has support at low levels. The PX09 is expected to trade in the range of 6600 - 6900 yuan/ton [2]. - PTA: In July, its supply - demand is expected to be weak due to general plant maintenance, expected new plant startups, strong downstream polyester plant production cuts, and weakening terminal demand. Its absolute price rebound is under pressure, and it is expected to trade in the range of 4600 - 4800 yuan/ton [2]. - MEG: With the increase in supply from domestic and overseas plants, its supply is turning loose. Although the polyester and terminal loads are declining, the cost side is strong, and its price is expected to fluctuate in the short term [2]. - Short - fiber: Both supply and demand are weak, with limited driving forces. Its absolute price fluctuates with raw materials, and it is expected to trade in the range of 6350 - 6600 yuan/ton [2]. - Bottle - chip: Its supply - demand is expected to improve, but its absolute price still follows the cost side. Attention should be paid to further production cuts of bottle - chip plants and downstream follow - up [2]. Polyolefin Industry PP and PE both show a supply contraction trend, with compressed weighted profits. Static supply and demand are both decreasing, and inventory is accumulating. In July, the supply pressure is not large, and the de - stocking situation has improved. There is a lack of strong driving forces for both, and they should be traded within a range. The LP spread can be taken profit at around 250 [7]. Urea Industry The core drivers from the fundamental and macro - news aspects are the market confidence boost brought by the Indian tender price. The short - term market has expectations for export benefits. With support from agricultural and industrial demand and partial alleviation of supply pressure by maintenance plans, the short - term market shows an upward - fluctuating trend. However, the sustainability of demand is to be observed, and long positions should not be over - chased [10]. Crude Oil Industry The main logic for the oil price increase is geopolitical risks and supply interruption expectations. Although the EIA inventory is still accumulating, the refined oil crack spread is strong, and refinery processing demand exists. The oil price is likely to run strongly in the short term, and the WTI is expected to trade in the range of [64, 70] dollars/barrel, Brent in [67, 72] dollars/barrel, and SC in [510, 535] yuan/barrel [13]. PVC and Caustic Soda Industry - Caustic Soda: The supply - demand contradiction is limited. High profits stimulate high production, and the non - aluminum downstream is in the off - season. However, the trading activity between alumina plants and traders has increased, and sporadic premium transactions have occurred. It is expected to run strongly in the short term [40]. - PVC: The domestic PVC powder market price has increased, but the supply - demand pattern has entered the off - season of increasing supply and decreasing demand. The fundamentals have not improved significantly, and inventory has slightly increased. Although the fundamentals are weak, it is difficult to see a sharp price decline in the short term due to the positive macro - atmosphere, and it is recommended to wait and see [40]. Pure Benzene and Styrene Industry - Pure Benzene: Recently, it has rebounded significantly at low levels due to strong oil prices and positive domestic commodity market sentiment. In July, its supply - demand is expected to improve, but its own driving force is limited due to high import expectations and high port inventory. The rebound space may be restricted, and it is recommended to wait and see on the long side and conduct spread reverse arbitrage [42]. - Styrene: The industry profit is good, and the industry operating rate is high. However, due to the increasing losses of some downstream industries and high finished - product inventory, its supply - demand is expected to weaken. Although the absolute price is supported by strong oil prices and positive domestic commodity atmosphere, its increase is limited. Short - selling opportunities above 7500 yuan/ton for EB08 can be considered [42].
