1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The short - term probability of an increase in urea production is high due to few short - term maintenance plans and some device restarts, despite a recent slight decrease in daily output caused by new device maintenance. [3] - Domestic agricultural demand is advancing slowly with limited rigid demand, and the autumn fertilizer production stage has begun. The compound fertilizer enterprise operating rate is rising steadily but slowly, and the melamine operating rate has rebounded but may be restricted by weak downstream demand. [3] - Some urea enterprise inventories are decreasing rapidly, and the overall inventory is mainly decreasing, though still much higher than the same period in previous years. The overall inventory reduction speed may weaken as previous export orders enter the later stage, but export expectations still support the price. [3] - It is recommended to trade the UR2509 contract in the range of 1750 - 1830 yuan/ton in the short term. [3] 3.

Report Industry Investment Rating - Unilateral: Neutral; Cross-period: None; Cross-variety: Short the coal-based production profit at high levels [3] Core View - The total inventory of urea enterprises decreased by 72,200 tons to 896,000 tons. The inventory of urea enterprises continued to decline, while the port inventory continued to increase due to good urea exports and increased port collection willingness. The production of urea enterprises remained high with few maintenance plans. Currently in the peak agricultural demand season, agricultural demand continued to advance, the start - up of compound fertilizers increased, and the demand for urea showed a phased increase. Industrial demand remained weak [1][2] Summary by Directory 1.

Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Core Viewpoints of the Report - In the short term, domestic demand for urea is weak while exports provide support, showing an oscillating trend. In the short term, it will mainly move in an oscillating manner without obvious driving forces. In the short term, due to continuously weak spot transactions, it may face pressure and oscillate [2][3] Summary by Relevant Catalogs Fundamental Tracking - **Futures Market**: The closing price of the urea main contract (09 contract) was 1,764 yuan/ton, down 9 yuan from the previous day; the settlement price was 1,761 yuan/ton, down 15 yuan; the trading volume was 181,747 lots, an increase of 9,486 lots; the open interest was 197,992 lots, an increase of 206 lots; the number of warehouse receipts was 2,630 tons, a decrease of 15 tons; the trading volume was 639,981 ten thousand yuan, an increase of 28,236 ten thousand yuan. The basis in Shandong region was 56 yuan, down 31 yuan; the difference between Fengxi and the futures price was -64 yuan, down 11 yuan; the difference between Dongguang and the futures price was 26 yuan, down 1 yuan.

During this period, the inventory of domestic urea enterprises continued to decline, and some urea plants continued to execute previous export orders. Domestic industrial demand was weak, and local agricultural demand increased incrementally. The shipment of urea plants varied significantly, and inventory changes were different among regions [2] - In the short term, the domestic demand is weak, and exports provide support, showing an oscillating trend. In the short term, due to continuously weak spot transactions, it may face pressure and oscillate. In early July, the fundamentals of urea are expected to improve marginally. There will be concentrated maintenance on the supply side, with a decline in the operating rate and daily output. On the demand side, traders are gradually picking up goods for export, and inventory may not accumulate significantly in the short term. The pressure of factories' pending orders and inventory is not large, and spot quotes are slightly rising. Additional export quotas may gradually be implemented, increasing the export volume. However, domestic agricultural demand is coming to an end, and fundamental pressure is gradually increasing, significantly suppressing the upward price space [2][3] Trend Intensity - The trend intensity of urea is 0, indicating a neutral trend [3]

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided Group 2: Core Viewpoints of the Report - Last week's view was that demand was weak and ex - factory prices fell collectively.
