Report Industry Investment Ratings No relevant information provided. Core Views of the Report - The short - term geopolitical risks dominate the rebound of oil prices, and the value of call options to protect short positions remains.

Most commodities are affected by factors such as supply, demand, geopolitical risks, and policy changes, showing different trends including upward, downward, and range - bound oscillations [2][3][4] Summary by Commodity Categories Metals - **Crude Oil**: Overnight international oil prices continued to rebound, with the Brent 11 - contract up 1.89%. Last week's decline in US EIA inventories and geopolitical risks supported the market.

Technically, LME copper has the potential to break through, but attention should be paid to capital allocation and macro - economic indicators [4] - **Aluminum**: Overnight, the rise in copper prices drove non - ferrous metals to oscillate strongly. In September, aluminum's apparent consumption was below expectations, and there was limited upward momentum [5] - **Cast Aluminum Alloy**: It follows the fluctuations of SHFE aluminum. Tight scrap aluminum supply and tax policy adjustment expectations may make it more resilient [6] - **Alumina**: The operating capacity reached a new high, and the inventory continued to rise. Supply is in excess, and the price is weakly running, with support around 2800 yuan [7] - **Zinc**: The internal and external markets diverged.

It's advisable to stay on the sidelines in the short term [11] Energy and Chemicals - **Fuel Oil & Low - Sulfur Fuel Oil**: Overnight, the fuel oil market continued to rise, driven by geopolitical news.

The PTA profit is still poor, and the downstream has restocking expectations before the festival [31] - **Ethylene Glycol**: The price continued to fall, and the new - device production impact was digested. The short - term oil price provides upward momentum, but the expectation is weak, and there is a risk of inventory accumulation [32] - **Short - Fiber & Bottle Chip**: The short - fiber inventory decreased, and the demand improved. The bottle chip was affected by the typhoon, and the long - term over - capacity is a pressure [33] - **Glass**: The glass futures price rose significantly due to industry meetings and price - increase plans. The short - term price may oscillate strongly, but it may return to a weak state if capacity reduction doesn't materialize [34] - **Soda Ash**: It followed the rise of glass.

The short - term negative factors may end, and there is a long - term cautious bullish view [37] - **Soybean Oil & Palm Oil**: The mid - term soybean and palm oil are expected to trade in a range.

Attention should be paid to the re - entry of secondary fattening and the government's support policy [42] - **Egg**: The egg futures adjusted weakly. The short - term price increase is limited, and long - term contracts can be considered for long positions [43] - **Cotton**: The US cotton price oscillated.
