Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided Core Viewpoints - In the short term, domestic policy has released positive signals, but corporate profits have not significantly improved. Therefore, the short - term rebound of stock indices should be viewed with caution. As the Fed's October interest rate decision approaches and the expectation of an interest rate cut this year has been digested in advance, and the situation in Russia and Ukraine is unclear, gold is likely to continue high - level volatile adjustments [36]. - In the medium to long term, the valuation of stock indices is mainly dragged down by the decline in corporate profit growth at the molecular end, while the support at the denominator end mainly comes from the recovery of risk appetite, including the intensification of domestic counter - cyclical adjustment policies and the easing of international trade frictions. Stock indices are expected to maintain a wide - range oscillation. With the concerns about the uncertainty of US tariff policies fading, the geopolitical situation in the Middle East easing, and the expectation of an interest rate cut by the Fed this year being fully digested, there is a risk of a deep adjustment in gold [36]. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Domestic and Foreign Macroeconomic Data - In the third quarter of this year, GDP grew by 4.8% year - on - year, 0.4 percentage points slower than in the second quarter. From January to September, fixed - asset investment decreased by 0.5% year - on - year, the first negative growth since September 2020. Industrial added value increased by 6.2% year - on - year, the same as last month. The total retail sales of consumer goods increased by 4.5% year - on - year, 0.1 percentage points slower than last month [4]. Stock Index Fundamental Data - In September this year, the scale of new loans and social financing rebounded, and the gap between M1 and M2 further narrowed, reflecting that financial institutions have continuously increased credit support for enterprises. The A - share market was active, and liquidity remained abundant [17]. - The balance of margin trading in the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets slightly decreased to 2426.377 billion yuan. The central bank conducted 867.2 billion yuan of 7 - day reverse repurchase operations this week, achieving a net investment of 78.1 billion yuan [21]. Gold Fundamental Data - The US federal government was in a shutdown, causing some economic data to fail to be released on time. There were differences within the Fed regarding future interest rate policies, and most officials supported a further interest rate cut this year. The yield of the 10 - year US Treasury bond fell below the 4% mark [27][28]. - The warehouse receipts and inventory of Shanghai gold futures continued to soar, reflecting an increase in the demand for physical gold delivery and high market bullish sentiment [34]. Strategy Recommendation - In the third quarter, GDP growth slowed down, and fixed - asset investment continued to decline, mainly dragged down by the expanding decline in real estate investment and the slowing growth of infrastructure and manufacturing investment. With the improvement of weather conditions and the arrival of the peak construction season, industrial production expanded faster. Affected by the high - base effect of the same period last year, the growth rate of consumption slowed down marginally. The foundation for China's economic recovery is not solid, and the characteristics of strong production, weak demand, strong service industry, and weak manufacturing industry are still significant, with insufficient demand remaining the main contradiction [35]. - The communique of the Fourth Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee was released, proposing the main goals of the 15th Five - Year Plan and requiring continuous and timely strengthening of macro - policies. A new round of China - US economic and trade consultations will be held from October 24th to 27th, and the market expects positive progress in the negotiations. With positive signals from the domestic policy side and eased concerns about China - US trade frictions, risk appetite has significantly rebounded, but the short - term rebound of stock indices should be viewed with caution [35]. - As the Fed's October interest - rate meeting approaches, it is highly likely to cut interest rates by 25 basis points. However, due to the continuous shutdown of the US government, important data such as non - farm employment and core inflation have not been released on time, bringing uncertainty to the Fed's future interest - rate policy. In terms of international geopolitics, the meeting between US and Russian leaders was postponed, the EU imposed a new round of sanctions on Russia, and the prospect of Russia - Ukraine peace negotiations has changed again. The expectation of an interest - rate cut by the Fed this year has been repeatedly digested, and after the rapid rise of gold, some funds have taken profits. Gold may enter a stage of adjustment in the short term [35].

Group 1: Market Overview - Domestic oilseed futures have shown a weak oscillating trend since October, with soybean oil futures maintaining a range of 8200 to 8400 yuan/ton due to policy expectations [1] - The domestic supply of soybean oil is relatively ample, with inventory at a medium to high level, which suppresses the upward price potential [1] - International soybean oil prices remain firm, and the slowdown in domestic oil mill crushing pace provides some support for soybean oil prices [1] Group 2: U.S. Soybean Export Challenges - The U.S. government shutdown and escalating U.S.-China trade tensions have weakened the influence of U.S. soybeans in the global pricing system, leading to a reduced impact on China's imported soybean costs [2] - From October to December, China is expected to maintain zero purchases of U.S. soybeans, relying on imports from Brazil and Argentina to fill the supply gap [2] - The decoupling of U.S. soybean pricing from Chinese imports is evident, with the pricing model now dominated by Brazilian soybean premiums and the exchange rate of the yuan [2] Group 3: Weather Predictions and Production Estimates - The U.S. Climate Prediction Center forecasts a 71% probability of La Niña weather from October to December, which may increase drought risks in major soybean-producing regions like Brazil and Argentina [3] - The Rosario Grain Exchange predicts Argentina's soybean production for the 2025/2026 season to be 47 million tons, lower than the USDA's previous estimate of 48.5 million tons [3] Group 4: Supply Adequacy - Prior to the National Day holiday, domestic purchases of Argentine soybeans increased due to a temporary cancellation of export taxes, covering the supply gap for the first quarter of next year [4] - In September, Argentina announced a reduction of the soybean export tax from 26% to zero, prompting Chinese buyers to secure at least 130,000 tons of soybean orders within a few days [4] - China's soybean imports in September reached 12.87 million tons, with imports from Brazil at 10.96 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 29.8%, while no U.S. soybeans were imported for the first time since November 2018 [4] Group 5: Current Market Dynamics - The oilseed market currently lacks a clear direction, with stable supply and limited news impact, resulting in oscillating futures prices [5] - The recent procurement of Argentine soybeans is sufficient to meet the first-quarter demand, thus limiting the impact of U.S.-China trade negotiations on soybean prices [5] - The soybean oil market remains unchanged, with oil mills operating normally and inventory pressures persisting, leading to a lack of significant price drivers [5]
