1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report 2.1 Weekly Summary - After the holiday, PX prices rebounded after a decline due to improved macro - atmosphere and supply contraction. The strong oil market provided cost support, and expected maintenance of domestic reforming and PX devices further pushed up prices [9]. - PTA prices first fell then rose, following crude oil fluctuations.

PX: Multiple domestic reforming devices have parking plans, increasing the possibility of production cuts in supporting PX devices. Low PXN also increases the expectation of maintenance. PTA: There will still be many device maintenance in May, and the operating rate will be at a low level for the year. Polyester: The short - term operating rate is estimated to be around 90%, with limited announced maintenance plans, especially for large polyester manufacturers. The rigid demand remains good. Weaving: The开机 rate has increased, and the probability of short - term negative feedback is low [10]. - Overall: PX is expected to operate strongly in the range of 6,600 - 6,900 yuan/ton; PTA is expected to operate strongly in the range of 4,550 - 4,850 yuan/ton.

The industrial sector should pay attention to policy changes and steel mill production schedules [1]. - **Industrial Silicon**: Oscillating. Supply is strengthening, demand is weakening, it has entered the low - valuation range, and the demand has not improved and the inventory pressure has not been relieved [1]. - **Polysilicon**: Oscillating. The number of registered warehouse receipts is extremely small, and the futures are at a discount to the spot, so the willingness to register warehouse receipts is low [1]. - **Carbonate Lithium**: Bearish. Supply has not further shrunk, the visible inventory has continued to accumulate, and downstream raw - material inventory is at a high level. At the low price, downstream still maintains rigid - demand purchases [1]. Black Metals Sector - **Rebar**: Oscillating.

Ethylene glycol plants are under maintenance, large - scale plants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang have reduced their loads, and coal - based plants have started to be overhauled [1]. - **Short - Fiber**: Bullish. The slightly tight situation of PTA has strengthened the cost support for short - fiber, and in the case of a high basis, short - fiber has shown strong performance [1]. - **Styrene**: The weak demand for pure benzene has caused the price to continue to decline. The decline in the profit of reforming plants has clearly affected the plant load. After the sharp decline of pure benzene, the downstream demand for pure benzene has continued to weaken [1]. - **Urea**: Bullish. The market expectation is favorable, the sentiment is strong, and the urea market is likely to rise firmly in the short - term [1]. - **Methanol**: Oscillating. The basis is high, and the replenishment is active. In the short - term, the methanol price will oscillate within the range.
