Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2. Report Core Views - For methanol, due to low shipments from Iran and limited time for the 05 contract, inventory is expected to decline to a seasonal low at the end of April. Be vigilant about lower - than - expected future shipments from Iran. In May, considering assumptions of Shenghong's shutdown and normal imports, inventory will accumulate, but the low inventory at the end of April will still influence trading. An unexpected supply gap in the 05 contract could keep inventory low, providing a safety margin for long positions [2]. - For plastics, polyethylene has a neutral overall inventory situation. The 05 contract has a basis of +300 in North China and East China. Import profit is around -400 with no further increase. Non - standard HD injection prices are stable, and LD is weakening. February's maintenance decreased, and domestic linear production increased. New device pressure is high in 2025, and the commissioning of new devices should be monitored [7]. - For PP, polypropylene's upstream and mid - stream inventories have increased during the holiday. The basis is +10, non - standard price spreads are neutral, and import profit is around -500. There are no reports of large - scale export transactions. PDH profit is around -600, and the draw production is neutral. With few known future maintenance plans, supply is expected to increase slightly, and downstream orders are average. In an over - capacity situation, the 05 contract is under pressure, which could be relieved by increased exports or monthly PDH device maintenance of 2 million tons [7]. - For PVC, the basis has strengthened to 05 - 120, and the factory - pickup basis is -280. Downstream开工 is seasonal, and there is a strong willingness to hold goods at low prices. Mid - and upstream inventories are continuously decreasing. With concentrated spring maintenance, the开工 rate may reach 75% temporarily. In the second quarter, the scale of spring maintenance after profit compression should be monitored. Export orders are decent, and in April, attention should be paid to the ZZJ meeting. Coal prices are stable, the cost of semi - coke is weak, and calcium carbide may have difficulty expanding profits with PVC maintenance. The export counter - offer for caustic soda is FOB400. PVC's comprehensive profit is -300. Current static inventory is high, downstream performance is mediocre, and the macro situation is neutral. Attention should be paid to exports, coal prices, commercial housing sales, terminal orders, and开工 [11]. 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided in the content. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - After the holiday, polysilicon showed a weak and volatile trend. The main contract 2506 closed at 36,410 yuan/ton, with an intraday decline of 2.39%, and the open interest decreased by 510 lots to 53,756 lots. The SMM N-type polysilicon price was 40,500 yuan/ton, and the spot premium over the main contract widened to 4,090 yuan/ton. Industrial silicon also showed a weak and volatile trend. The main contract 2506 closed at 8,325 yuan/ton, with an intraday decline of 2.57%, and the open interest increased by 12,934 lots to 17,950 lots. The Baichuan industrial silicon spot reference price was 9,637 yuan/ton, down 128 yuan/ton from the last trading day before the holiday. The price of the lowest deliverable 553 grade dropped to 8,650 yuan/ton, and the spot premium widened to 280 yuan/ton. Before the holiday, traders cleared their inventories and pressured prices, and the downstream's willingness to stock up was lower than in previous years. After the holiday, the downstream demand still faced the pressure of a slowdown. Industrial silicon was affected by the negative feedback from the downstream and was difficult to get out of the bottom-finding rhythm. The adjustment flexibility of polysilicon production was relatively high, and the space for a sharp decline after the holiday was relatively limited compared with industrial silicon, mainly showing a narrow correction. Opportunities for the convergence of the spread between near and far months could be considered. Attention should be paid to whether large-scale infrastructure or mandatory photovoltaic installation assessment policies will be newly introduced after the decline of distributed photovoltaics, which may trigger an oversold rebound [2]. 3.
