Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Core View of the Report - After the previous trading day, UR fluctuated upwards and closed at 1803. On Friday night, coking coal prices dropped and hit the daily limit. The bullish sentiment brought by anti - involution may be adjusted, and urea prices may experience a compensatory decline today. Fundamentally, the supply pressure of urea remains high, with daily production close to 200,000 tons at a high level. Enterprise inventories continue to decline slightly, mainly due to increased port collection. Upstream enterprise inventories are still around 750,000 tons. In terms of demand, the top - dressing demand in July will still support prices, but once domestic agricultural demand weakens and export demand is not supplemented, urea prices will face significant downward pressure. In the short term, policy expectations may fluctuate repeatedly, and it is recommended to wait and see for now (View Score: - 1) [1] Summary According to Related Catalogs 1.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided 2. Core Viewpoints - In the short - term, urea spot prices are weakly operating. In the futures market, last week, urea futures showed an N - shaped trend. Looking ahead to next week, in an environment where commodity futures decline significantly, urea futures are expected to open and move lower. There is a possibility of a large outflow of cash - and - carry arbitrage goods, leading to a negative feedback loop, and the weak situation is expected to be maintained in the short term. However, domestic urea production has decreased month - on - month, external demand has increased month - on - month, and domestic demand has strengthened month - on - month. It is recommended to actively close short positions after a significant decline in futures and wait for opportunities to enter long positions [5]. 3.
