俄罗斯炸毁的是乌克兰的天然气设施，受寒的是整个欧洲的冬天。乌克兰哭着喊着要欧盟掏出22亿欧元"救命钱"，而欧盟这边，心疼得比天气还冷。能源断 了，账单多了，民意压着，政治还得硬撑——这场冲突还没结束，欧洲已经快喘不过气来。 自2022年俄乌冲突爆发，欧盟就像个"月光族"，每月都要往乌克兰账户里打钱。从军事装备到财政援助，甚至连军人薪水都要帮着垫。 据欧盟委员会2024年发布的报告，累计援助金额已突破850亿欧元，可泽连斯基还不嫌多，2024年冬天再次开口要求22亿欧元用于"基础设施重建"和"能源补 贴"。而彼时，美国态度一百八十度转弯。特朗普回国后直接表态："乌克兰武器？得自己掏钱。"这下可好，欧盟成了唯一的"提款机"。 可问题是，这台提款机早就电压不稳了。2025年欧盟预算草案显示，多个民生项目被压缩，只为继续援乌"输血"，不少成员国财政部长私下抱怨："这不是 援助，这是拔我们的命根。" 更讽刺的是，欧盟内部也开始清醒。援助乌克兰，表面上是"价值观输出"，背地里却是"战略自损"。越多的钱砸进去，越难收手。民众怨声载道，抗议不 断；可政治正确绑得紧，放弃援助又怕"站错队"。这不是矛盾，这是结构性困境，一边是道 ...

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content 2. Core View of the Report - In the short term, the fundamentals of asphalt have little change, and its price is mainly driven by crude oil. Affected by the decline in international oil prices during the holiday, asphalt prices fluctuated weakly this week. With limited improvement in asphalt demand, the fundamentals provide limited support for the market. As downstream demand enters the off - season and there are high production plans, the weakening fundamentals may suppress prices. Crude oil continues to oscillate widely due to geopolitical and fundamental factors, but as the peak demand season ends, the expectation of supply surplus strengthens, and the cost - side support for asphalt weakens. Overall, asphalt lacks upward momentum in the short term and is expected to continue the weakly oscillating trend. It is recommended to focus on the BU2511 contract in the range of 3260 - 3400 yuan/ton and look for short - selling opportunities on rebounds [8][58]. 3. Summary According to the Catalog 3.1 Report Summary - **Market Focus**: Israel and Hamas reached a Gaza cease - fire agreement; OPEC+ will increase production by 137,000 barrels per day in November; there are differences among Fed officials regarding the magnitude of interest rate cuts this year [7]. - **Key Data**: As of September 24, the operating rate of domestic asphalt sample enterprises was 40.1%, up 5.7 percentage points from the previous period. As of October 10, the weekly asphalt production was 618,000 tons, a decrease of 19,000 tons from last week; the factory inventory of domestic asphalt sample enterprises was 690,000 tons, an increase of 42,000 tons from last week; the social inventory was 1.058 million tons, a decrease of 14,000 tons from last week [8]. - **Trading Strategy**: Focus on the BU2511 contract in the range of 3260 - 3400 yuan/ton and look for short - selling opportunities on rebounds [9]. 3.2 Multi - Empty Focus - **Bullish Factors**: Geopolitical uncertainty and high refinery production [12]. - **Bearish Factors**: OPEC+ production increase [12]. 3.3 Macro Analysis - **OPEC+ Production Increase**: OPEC+ will increase production by 137,000 barrels per day in November. Russia and Saudi Arabia have a quota of 41,000 barrels per day, Iraq 18,000 barrels per day, UAE 12,000 barrels per day, Kuwait 10,000 barrels per day, Kazakhstan 7,000 barrels per day, Oman and Algeria 4,000 barrels per day each. This shows OPEC+'s determination to compete for market share through production increase, which will increase supply - side pressure and suppress prices [14][16]. - **Geopolitical Situation**: A Gaza cease - fire agreement is expected to be reached, but its implementation may be repeated. The Russia - Ukraine conflict remains highly uncertain, and attacks on energy infrastructure may disrupt crude oil supply and support oil prices [17]. 3.4 Supply - Demand Analysis - **Supply**: As of October 10, the weekly asphalt production was 618,000 tons, a decrease of 19,000 tons from last week. The production of state - owned refineries was basically flat, while that of local refineries decreased. The operating rate of domestic asphalt sample enterprises as of September 24 was 40.1%, up 5.7 percentage points from the previous period, with significant increases in East China and Shandong. As state - owned refineries enter seasonal maintenance, the operating rate may decline [18][28]. - **Demand**: As of September 26, the weekly asphalt shipment was 496,000 tons, an increase of 41,000 tons from the previous week. However, as demand enters the off - season, shipments may decline. The weekly capacity utilization rate of modified asphalt as of September 26 was 18.94%, a decrease of 1.29 percentage points from last week. It is expected to decline in the fourth quarter, with limited long - term growth potential [29][32]. - **Inventory**: As of October 10, the factory inventory of domestic asphalt sample enterprises was 690,000 tons, an increase of 42,000 tons from last week, mainly in North China and Shandong. The social inventory was 1.058 million tons, a decrease of 14,000 tons from last week, and the de - stocking speed slowed down during the National Day holiday [42][49]. - **Spread**: As of September 26, the weekly profit of domestic asphalt processing was - 554.7 yuan/ton, an increase of 3.2 yuan/ton from the previous week. The domestic asphalt basis was 185 yuan/ton, and the asphalt - to - crude oil ratio as of September 30 was 54.85. The crack spread and basis are expected to remain stable [56]. 3.5后市研判 - In the short term, asphalt lacks upward momentum, and crude oil will continue to dominate the market. It is expected to continue the weakly oscillating trend. Focus on the BU2511 contract in the range of 3260 - 3400 yuan/ton and look for short - selling opportunities on rebounds [58].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided regarding the report industry investment rating 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - Gold is expected to have a long - term upward trend, with short - term and medium - term increases and an intraday view of being oscillating strongly. The core logic is the start of interest rate cuts, intensified geopolitical situations, and the continuation of the upward trend in the medium and long term [1][3] - Copper is also expected to have a long - term upward trend, with short - term, medium - term, and intraday increases. The reason is the macro - loose background, renewed disturbances at the mine end, and a rapid increase in capital attention [1][5] 3. Summary by Variety Gold - **Price Performance**: Yesterday, gold prices rose and then fell. New York gold and London gold both fell below the $4000 mark, and Shanghai gold dropped to the 900 - yuan mark. During the National Day holiday, international gold prices rose continuously. New York gold futures and London gold broke through the $4000/ounce psychological barrier, with a holiday increase of over 4% and a year - to - date increase of over 50% [3] - **Core Logic**: The short - term decline is due to the cease - fire agreement between Israel and Hamas, which cooled geopolitical tensions, and the strong willingness of short - term bulls to close positions after a large previous increase. The strong performance of gold prices is driven by three factors: a surge in hedging demand, expectations of monetary policy, and a structural influx of funds [3] - **Technical Analysis**: Continuously monitor the long - short game of overseas gold prices at $4000, corresponding to the 900 - yuan mark in China [3] Copper - **Price Performance**: Yesterday, copper prices rose and then fell. During the National Day, the LME copper price broke through $10500 and reached $10800, hitting a new high for the year [5] - **Core Logic**: The short - term decline is affected by the fall of precious metals and strong technical pressure at a nearly 5 - year high. The strong rise is caused by three factors: supply shortages, macro and financial attributes, and demand resilience [5] - **Technical Analysis**: Continuously monitor the pressure at the $11000 mark for overseas LME copper and the high in May 2024 for domestic copper [5]

1. Report Industry Investment Rating The report does not provide an overall industry investment rating. However, for each specific energy and chemical product, the following ratings are given: - Crude oil: Oscillating [1] - Fuel oil: Oscillating [3] - Asphalt: Oscillating [3] - Polyester: Oscillating [5] - Rubber: Oscillating [7] - Methanol: Oscillating [8] - Polyolefins: Oscillating weakly [8] - Polyvinyl chloride (PVC): Oscillating [9] 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - **Crude oil**: Geopolitical tensions have eased with the Israel - Hamas cease - fire agreement, leading to a decline in the geopolitical premium of crude oil and downward pressure on oil prices. US refinery operations and inventory data show an increase in commercial crude oil inventories and a decrease in gasoline and distillate inventories. Under the triple tests of supply increase expectations, geopolitical factor easing, and demand entering the off - season, oil prices are expected to continue their weakening trend [1]. - **Fuel oil**: Although the East - West arbitrage window for low - sulfur fuel oil is mostly closed, the inflow of component oils for blending low - sulfur fuel oil continues to increase. The Asian high - sulfur fuel oil market is relatively stable, but the supply may increase in the future. The high - sulfur fundamentals may be slightly stronger than the low - sulfur [3]. - **Asphalt**: During the National Day holiday, the overall supply of asphalt increased slightly. The continuous rainfall in the southern regions hinders downstream construction, while the northern regions still have some catch - up demand. The recent significant increase in asphalt production may put pressure on prices after the peak season [3]. - **Polyester**: In the fourth quarter, there will be some overseas PX device overhauls, and the ethylene glycol production capacity may continue to increase. The demand for winter fabrics has recovered seasonally but is expected to weaken in the second half of October. Under the situation of supply increase and demand weakening, the fundamentals of TA and ethylene glycol are weak, and their prices are expected to oscillate weakly [5]. - **Rubber**: Affected by Typhoon "Maideme", the rubber production in Hainan Island is expected to decrease. The US tariff on heavy - truck imports may suppress global rubber demand. After the holiday, rubber prices are expected to oscillate, and attention should be paid to new rubber warehouse receipts and crude oil price fluctuations [7]. - **Methanol**: The market is concerned about Iran's winter gas - rationing news. With the recovery of MTO device operations in East China, port demand has significantly increased, but MTO profit compression may affect refinery maintenance plans. In the short term, methanol prices are suppressed by high inventories and tend to oscillate [8]. - **Polyolefins**: Poor profit performance may lead to a high level of maintenance, and domestic production is unlikely to increase significantly in the short term. After the holiday, downstream orders will gradually decline, affecting the procurement of raw materials. Supply pressure remains high, demand has peaked and declined, and polyolefin prices are expected to oscillate weakly [8]. - **PVC**: In the fourth quarter, high - supply status will continue. As the peak season in October ends, downstream operations are expected to decline, and exports may weaken due to India's anti - dumping duties. High inventory pressure will restrict price increases, and market fluctuations may increase [9]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Research Views - **Crude oil**: On Thursday, the price of WTI November contract closed at $61.51 per barrel, down $1.04 or 1.66%. Brent December contract closed at $65.22 per barrel, down $1.03 or 1.55%. SC2511 closed at 464.2 yuan per barrel, down 4.5 yuan or 0.96%. Israel's approval of the Gaza cease - fire agreement led to a decline in the geopolitical premium. US refinery operations and inventory data show an increase in commercial crude oil inventories and a decrease in gasoline and distillate inventories [1]. - **Fuel oil**: On Thursday, the main contract of fuel oil (FU2601) on the Shanghai Futures Exchange closed down 1.25% at 2,834 yuan per ton, and the low - sulfur fuel oil main contract (LU2511) closed down 1.23% at 3,360 yuan per ton. The inflow of component oils for blending low - sulfur fuel oil continues to increase, and the Asian high - sulfur fuel oil market is relatively stable [3]. - **Asphalt**: On Thursday, the main contract of asphalt (BU2511) on the Shanghai Futures Exchange closed down 1.52% at 3,375 yuan per ton. During the National Day holiday, the overall supply of asphalt increased slightly, and the southern rainfall affected downstream construction [3]. - **Polyester**: TA601 closed at 4,626 yuan per ton, up 1.54%. EG2601 closed at 4,234 yuan per ton, up 0.52%. In the fourth quarter, there will be some overseas PX device overhauls, and the ethylene glycol production capacity may increase. The demand for winter fabrics has recovered seasonally but is expected to weaken [5]. - **Rubber**: On Thursday, the main contract of Shanghai - traded rubber (RU2601) rose 95 yuan per ton to 15,620 yuan per ton. Affected by Typhoon "Maideme", rubber production in Hainan Island is expected to decrease, and the US tariff on heavy - truck imports may suppress demand [7]. - **Methanol**: On Thursday, the spot price in Taicang was 2,213 yuan per ton. The market is concerned about Iran's winter gas - rationing news. With the recovery of MTO device operations in East China, port demand has increased [8]. - **Polyolefins**: On Thursday, the mainstream price of East - China drawn polypropylene was 6,700 - 6,800 yuan per ton. Poor profit performance may lead to high - level maintenance, and domestic production is unlikely to increase significantly in the short term. After the holiday, downstream orders will decline [8]. - **PVC**: On Thursday, the price of PVC in the East - China market decreased. In the fourth quarter, high - supply status will continue, and downstream operations are expected to decline as the peak season ends [9]. 3.2 Daily Data Monitoring The report provides the spot price, futures price, basis, basis rate, and their changes for various energy and chemical products on October 10, 2025, including crude oil, liquefied petroleum gas, asphalt, high - sulfur fuel oil, low - sulfur fuel oil, methanol, urea, polyethylene, polypropylene, PTA, ethylene glycol, styrene, natural rubber, 20 - grade rubber, and soda ash [10]. 3.3 Market News - Israel and Hamas have reached a long - sought cease - fire and personnel release agreement, which weakens the geopolitical risk premium of crude oil and triggers investors to sell [12]. - In the absence of strong new signals in supply and demand, crude oil prices have also declined with the broader market. The US government shutdown and the strengthening of the US dollar have reduced the attractiveness of dollar - denominated commodities. Oil prices are likely to remain range - bound and slightly downward [12]. 3.4 Chart Analysis 3.4.1 Main Contract Prices The report presents the closing price trends of main contracts for various energy and chemical products from 2021 to 2025, including crude oil, fuel oil, low - sulfur fuel oil, asphalt, LPG, PTA, ethylene glycol, short - fiber, LLDPE, polypropylene, PVC, methanol, styrene, 20 - grade rubber, natural rubber, synthetic rubber, European container shipping, and p - xylene [14][17][20][21][23][25][27][28]. 3.4.2 Main Contract Basis The report shows the basis trends of main contracts for various energy and chemical products from 2021 to 2025, including crude oil, fuel oil, low - sulfur fuel oil, asphalt, ethylene glycol, PP, LLDPE, natural rubber, 20 - grade rubber, p - xylene, synthetic rubber, and bottle chips [31][35][36][39][42][44]. 3.4.3 Inter - period Contract Spreads The report displays the spreads between different contracts for various energy and chemical products, including fuel oil, asphalt, European container shipping index, PTA, ethylene glycol, PP, LLDPE, and natural rubber [46][48][51][54][58][60]. 3.4.4 Inter - variety Spreads The report presents the spreads and ratios between different varieties of energy and chemical products, including crude oil internal and external spreads, crude oil B - W spreads, fuel oil high - low sulfur spreads, fuel oil/asphalt ratio, BU/SC ratio, ethylene glycol - PTA spread, PP - LLDPE spread, and natural rubber - 20 - grade rubber spread [62][65][67][68]. 3.4.5 Production Profits The report shows the production profit trends of ethylene - based ethylene glycol, PP, and LLDPE from 2021 to 2025 [70][73]. 3.5 Team Member Introduction - **Zhong Meiyan**: Assistant to the director of the research institute and director of energy and chemicals, with over a decade of experience in futures and derivatives market research, has won multiple industry awards [77]. - **Du Bingqin**: Analyst for crude oil, natural gas, fuel oil, asphalt, and shipping, with in - depth research on the energy industry chain and has won many industry awards [78]. - **Di Yilin**: Analyst for natural rubber and polyester, with strong data analysis and logical thinking abilities, and has won several industry awards [79]. - **Peng Haibo**: Analyst for methanol, PE, PP, and PVC, with experience in integrating financial theory and industrial operations [80].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content found 2. Core View of the Report - Due to geopolitical easing and shipping companies' announcements, the spot market is gradually entering the peak season. Under the game of the two factors, it is expected that the short - term futures market will fluctuate greatly. A cease - fire does not mean resumption of navigation. It is expected that the contract for December will operate strongly, and the contracts in 2026 carry greater risks. Before a clear signal of geopolitical easing emerges, the contract for February may follow the spot market more closely [1] 3. Summary According to Related Catalogs 3.1 Futures Market Data - **Futures Price and Fluctuation**: The closing prices of EC2510, EC2512, EC2602, EC2604, and EC2606 are 1119.9, 1688.0, 1406.0, 1119.9, and 1277.5 respectively, with fluctuations of 0.84%, - 2.53%, - 14.41%, - 10.7%, and - 13.05% [1]. - **Futures Volume and Open Interest**: The trading volumes of EC2510, EC2512, EC2602, EC2604, and EC2606 are 15562, 41507, 12789, 6566, and 990 respectively, and the open interests are 21030, 24222, 8743, 11087, and 1370 respectively, with open - interest changes of - 5752, 3451, 209, 1856, and 471 [1]. - **Futures Month - spread**: The month - spreads of EC2510 - 2512 and EC2512 - 2602 are - 568.1 and 282.0 respectively, with daily - on - daily changes of 53.2 and 192.9, and weekly - on - weekly changes of 69.9 and 190.0 [1]. 3.2 Spot Market Index - **Index Data**: The SCHIS index on October 6, 2025, is 1046.5 points, down 6.60% from the previous period; the SCFI (European line) on September 26, 2025, is 971 US dollars/TEU, down 7.70% from the previous period; the CCFI (European line) is 1401.91 points, down 4.69% from the previous period; the NCFI is 614.14 points, down 8.83% from the previous period [1]. 3.3 Recent European Line Quotations - **Week 40 - 41**: The average quotation is 1450 US dollars (equivalent to 1020 points on the futures market).

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The overall outlook for the energy and chemical industry is weak, with most products expected to experience weak fluctuations. Specific ratings for each product include: oil (weakly fluctuating), asphalt (weakly fluctuating), high - sulfur fuel oil (weakly fluctuating), low - sulfur fuel oil (weakly fluctuating), PX (fluctuating), PTA (fluctuating), pure benzene (weakly fluctuating), styrene (weakly fluctuating), MEG (weakly fluctuating), short - fiber (fluctuating), polyester bottle - chip (fluctuating), methanol (weakly fluctuating in the short - term), urea (weakly fluctuating), LLDPE (weakly fluctuating), PP (weakly fluctuating), PL (weakly fluctuating), PVC (fluctuating), and caustic soda (fluctuating) [10][11][14][17][18][19][22][24][28][29][33][34][35][37][38] 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The international oil price is in a stable and fluctuating state, and the Brent oil price remains within the 65 - 70 range. The SC oil price has fallen to the lower edge of the range due to high domestic crude oil inventories. The market is focused on the Israel - Hamas agreement, but there are doubts about its final implementation. The coking coal price rebounded on the first trading day after the holiday, and there is a possibility of price stabilization for coal [1]. - On the evening of October 9th, the National Development and Reform Commission and the State Administration for Market Regulation issued an announcement on "regulating price disorderly competition and maintaining a good market order," which may slightly boost the sentiment of the domestic sluggish commodity market. For chemical products, there has been no effective production reduction. The supply side has not effectively responded to losses, and the chemical market pattern remains weak [2]. - The energy and chemical industry will continue to be weakly fluctuating, with oil as the anchor. If geopolitical disturbances gradually weaken, the oil price center is expected to continue to decline [7][10]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Market Trends - **Oil**: The US Treasury's sanctions on entities related to Iranian oil have not significantly affected oil prices. Global supply is in an increasing phase dominated by high - growth OPEC+ production, with a surplus pressure. After the weakening of geopolitical support, oil prices are expected to return to a downward channel [10]. - **Asphalt**: OPEC+ production increase, a reduction in Saudi's export premium to Asia, and the cooling of the Middle East situation have led to a decline in the geopolitical premium, putting pressure on asphalt futures prices. The supply tension has been significantly alleviated, and the over - valuation premium is starting to decline [11]. - **High - sulfur fuel oil**: The sudden agreement in the Israel - Hamas conflict has led to a decline in high - sulfur fuel oil futures prices. Although there is an improvement in demand expectations, the impact of geopolitical upgrades on prices is expected to be short - term [11]. - **Low - sulfur fuel oil**: It follows the weak trend of oil, facing negative factors such as a decline in shipping demand, green energy substitution, and high - sulfur substitution. It is expected to maintain low - valuation operation [13]. - **PX**: Although there are some device outages, the overall supply is still relatively abundant. With the poor performance of polyester and textile clothing demand, PX profits are expected to be under pressure [14]. - **PTA**: The cost has short - term support, and the supply - demand situation in October is relatively stable. However, the market has a pessimistic expectation of future supply - demand loosening. If there is no large - scale production reduction, processing fees will remain under pressure [16]. - **Pure benzene**: The downstream pre - holiday inventory build - up has strengthened the market structure, but the supply is expected to exceed demand until the end of the year, with significant inventory accumulation pressure in October [17]. - **Styrene**: Although the supply - demand relationship is in a tight balance, the high inventory in the upstream and downstream is difficult to reduce, and the cost - side pure benzene inventory is also difficult to clear, dragging down the styrene price [18]. - **MEG**: The supply pressure is gradually being realized, and the inventory accumulation inflection point is approaching. Although the inventory accumulation amplitude is limited, domestic production is expected to increase, and polyester demand may weaken [22]. - **Short - fiber**: The upstream cost fluctuates, and the short - fiber price follows slightly. Although the terminal demand has marginally improved, the procurement is still cautious, and the overall driving force is limited [23]. - **Polyester bottle - chip**: The price follows the upstream cost fluctuations. Under the joint production reduction of bottle - chip factories, the processing fees are relatively stable. The expansion space of processing fees is limited, and attention should be paid to the implementation of production reduction plans [26]. - **Methanol**: Affected by the weakening of olefins and inventory accumulation, the futures price has declined. However, considering the potential disturbances from Iran, there may be some room for rebound after a continuous decline [28]. - **Urea**: After the holiday, there is a supply - demand mismatch, agricultural demand is weakening, and there is no short - term positive news. The market is expected to be weakly fluctuating [29]. - **LLDPE**: It follows the weak trend of the energy and chemical market. The supply - demand situation is not optimistic, and the profit support is limited. The price is expected to be weakly fluctuating in the short - term [33]. - **PP**: Affected by the decline of PG, the price has fallen. The supply - side pressure remains, and the transmission of raw material price decline is obvious [35]. - **PL**: Affected by the decline of PG, the futures price has fallen, but the spot price has some support, and it is expected to be weakly fluctuating in the short - term [35]. - **PVC**: There are still fundamental pressures, and the cost change is expected to be small. It is expected to be cautiously weak in the short - term, and attention should be paid to market sentiment changes [37]. - **Caustic soda**: The spot price is weak, and the futures price is expected to fluctuate. Attention should be paid to downstream inventory build - up and upstream start - up changes [38]. 3.2 Variety Data Monitoring 3.2.1 Energy and Chemical Daily Indicator Monitoring - **Inter - period spreads**: Different products have different inter - period spread values and changes. For example, the M1 - M2 spread of Brent is 0.59 with a change of 0.02, and the 1 - 5 month spread of PX is - 24 with a change of 16 [40]. - **Basis and warehouse receipts**: The basis and warehouse receipt data of each product are different. For example, the basis of asphalt is 115 with a change of 39, and the warehouse receipt is 44430 [41]. - **Inter - variety spreads**: The inter - variety spread data also vary. For example, the 1 - month PP - 3MA spread is - 125 with a change of 7, and the 1 - month TA - EG spread is 426 with a change of 39 [43]. 3.2.2 Chemical Basis and Spread Monitoring - Although there are sub - sections for various products such as methanol, urea, styrene, etc., no specific data summaries are provided in the text. 3.3 Commodity Index - **Comprehensive Index**: The comprehensive index, special index, and sector index of the commodity market have different performance.
