1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views Chlor - Alkali Industry - **Caustic Soda**: Last week, the caustic soda futures stopped falling and stabilized, with a sharp rebound on Friday. Next week, the supply is expected to increase, and the operating rate of sample manufacturers will rise. The profit margin of domestic alumina enterprises is narrowing, and the support for spot prices is weak. The inventory in North China is rising, while that in East China is falling. In the Shandong market, due to the approaching National Day holiday, there may be a price cut in the short - term [2]. - **PVC**: Last week, the PVC futures rebounded due to macro - warming, but the supply - demand contradiction is still difficult to ease. Next week, the output is expected to increase as many enterprises finish maintenance. The downstream demand is limited, and the procurement enthusiasm is average. The cost provides bottom - support. It is expected that PVC will stop falling and stabilize in September - October [2]. Urea Industry The urea futures are weakly declining. The supply may increase, and the demand from the autumn fertilizer market and industry is weak. The export new orders are limited. If there is no export surge or early shutdown of gas - based plants, the price may fall below 1,550 yuan/ton [7]. Pure Benzene - Styrene Industry - **Pure Benzene**: The weekly supply - demand of pure benzene is weak. In September, the supply may remain at a high level, and the demand support is weak. The price driving force is weak. The strategy for BZ2603 is to follow the styrene fluctuations [13]. - **Styrene**: The weekly supply - demand of styrene is also weak. The strategy is to be bearish on the absolute price rebound of EB11, and expand the spread between EB11 and BZ11 at a low level, but the driving force is limited [13]. PX - PTA - MEG Industry - **PX**: The supply of PX may increase due to short - process capacity increase and postponed maintenance. The demand is affected by PTA maintenance. The price is under pressure, and the basis boost is limited [17]. - **PTA**: The processing fee of PTA is low, and new device production is postponed. The demand is in the peak season, but the basis and processing fee repair drive is insufficient. The absolute price follows the cost [17]. - **MEG**: The supply - demand of MEG is gradually weakening. In the short - term, the import is not high, and the basis is oscillating at a high level. In the long - term, it will enter the inventory accumulation period in the fourth quarter [17]. - **Short - fiber**: The short - fiber supply is high, and the demand is limited during the peak season. The price has support at the low level, but the rebound drive is limited [17]. - **Bottle chips**: The bottle chip device restart and shutdown coexist. The downstream replenishment supports the price and processing fee, but the increase is limited [17]. Polyolefin Industry PP production has decreased due to losses in PDH and external propylene procurement routes, and the inventory has declined. PE maintenance has reached a peak, and the operating rate is rising. The upper - middle stream inventory has decreased. North American import offers are increasing. The inventory accumulation pressure of 01 contract is large, limiting the upside [22]. Methanol Industry The market is trading high inventory and fast Iranian loading. The coastal inventory has reached a historical high, the market sentiment is poor, and the price is weak. The domestic supply is at a high level year - on - year, and the demand is weak. The overall valuation is neutral. The market is swinging between high inventory and overseas gas - limit expectations. Attention should be paid to the inventory turning point [30][32]. Crude Oil Industry Last week, oil prices fluctuated weakly. The geopolitical premium has declined, and the market focuses on the weak supply - demand fundamentals. The supply is expected to be in surplus, and the demand is weak. The short - term oil prices are under pressure. Unilateral trading is recommended to wait and see, with SC resistance at 505 - 510, Brent at 68 - 69, and WTI at 64 - 65. Arbitrage is recommended to be long - spread, and options are recommended to buy put options [40]. 3.

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - The trading strategy for pure benzene is a sideways and weak trend for single - sided trading and a wait - and - see approach for arbitrage. For benzene - ethylene, the single - sided trading is also expected to be sideways and weak, and the strategies for arbitrage and options are to wait and see. The price of pure benzene is expected to show a weak sideways movement, and benzene - ethylene may face inventory accumulation pressure and price decline in the future [5][7]. Summary by Directory 1. Comprehensive Analysis and Trading Strategy Pure Benzene - The Fed cut interest rates by 25 basis points this week, increasing the risk of employment decline and inflation rise, and the macro - sentiment is weak. Geopolitical tensions have led to high - level fluctuations in oil prices. The supply and demand of pure benzene have both increased, the price difference with naphtha and styrene has remained stable, and the spot price has slightly increased. The import arrival in East China has been lower than expected, and the port inventory has decreased. The inventory of Shandong refineries is low, and the price is firm, but the buying interest has declined in the second half of the week. The price difference between Shandong and East China has strengthened, and the regional arbitrage window remains closed [5][11]. - Some pure benzene maintenance devices have restarted, and some new devices have been put into production, increasing the overall supply. The start - up rate of hydrogenated benzene has increased, although the profit remains in a loss state with a small loss margin, and the overall supply is also expected to increase. The downstream profit of pure benzene continues to be in a loss state, the inventory of major downstream products has increased, and the downstream procurement is coming to an end [5][26][28]. Benzene - ethylene - The price of benzene - ethylene first rose and then fell this week. The unexpected shutdown of Zhejiang Petrochemical widened the price difference between East China and Shandong, and the north - south arbitrage window opened. The inventory in East China ports has increased, and the basis has slightly weakened. The inventory of ports and trading enterprises has increased month - on - month, while the inventory of production enterprises has decreased [7][35]. - Some benzene - ethylene devices have reduced their loads or shut down, and some have restarted, resulting in a slight decline in the weekly start - up rate. In the future, the start - up rate is expected to increase, and new devices are planned to be put into production in the fourth quarter, increasing the supply. The downstream 3S orders are insufficient, the market spot supply is abundant, and the enterprise inventory is generally high, so benzene - ethylene may face inventory accumulation pressure in the future [7][44]. 2.
