1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The report does not explicitly provide an overall industry investment rating. However, it suggests that investors should approach oil and chemical investments with a mindset of weakening volatility, using the 5 - day moving average as a stop - loss point [3]. 2. Core Viewpoints - EIA and IEA hold an oversupply view of the future crude oil market, which has dampened market sentiment. The absolute value of oil prices has dropped to the lowest since June 5, and the monthly spread, taking Brent as an example, has fallen to the lowest since May. Geopolitical concerns have eased, but supply pressure remains [2]. - When raw material prices fluctuate significantly, the supply - demand relationship of chemical products becomes secondary. Most chemical products' basis has slightly increased after the sharp decline on August 14. The operating rates of polyester downstream industries and the benzene - ethylene chain have improved to some extent. Caustic soda is the strongest - performing variety on August 14 [3]. - Overall, the oil and chemical industry is expected to be in a state of weakening volatility. Each specific product has its own market characteristics and trends, and investors are advised to use a weakening volatility mindset for investment [3]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Market Outlook 3.1.1 Crude Oil - **Viewpoint**: Geopolitical concerns have eased, but supply pressure remains. The meeting between Trump and Putin on August 15 will influence the future sanctions on Russian oil. OPEC + production increases have led to supply pressure, and crude oil inventories face dual pressures. The short - term outlook is volatile, and the market should pay attention to the progress of US - Russia negotiations [9]. - **Logic**: OPEC + production increases have prevented seasonal declines in crude oil inventories in the past two months. Overseas gasoline inventories are high, and future crude oil inventories will face pressure from the peak - to - decline of refinery operations and accelerated OPEC + production increases. If the meeting is optimistic about ending the Russia - Ukraine conflict, oil prices will continue to fluctuate weakly [9]. 3.1.2 Asphalt - **Viewpoint**: Asphalt futures prices are weakly volatile. The main contract closed at 3472 yuan/ton, and the spot prices in different regions vary [9]. - **Logic**: EIA has significantly lowered oil price expectations. After the meeting between Russian and US leaders, the market will refocus on negative factors. The asphalt - fuel oil spread is high, driving refinery operations to return. Demand for asphalt is still not optimistic, and its current valuation is relatively high [9]. 3.1.3 High - Sulfur Fuel Oil - **Viewpoint**: High - sulfur fuel oil is weakly volatile, with the main contract closing at 2700 yuan/ton [9]. - **Logic**: EIA has lowered oil price expectations and raised OPEC production forecasts. The supply of heavy oil is expected to increase. China has raised the import tariff on fuel oil, and the demand for high - sulfur fuel oil is weak. Although the cracking spread is high, the driving factors are weakening [9]. 3.1.4 Low - Sulfur Fuel Oil - **Viewpoint**: Low - sulfur fuel oil futures prices follow crude oil and fluctuate weakly, with the main contract closing at 3449 yuan/ton [11]. - **Logic**: Low - sulfur fuel oil follows the weakening of crude oil. Although it is affected by the increase in diesel cracking spread, it faces negative factors such as the decline in shipping demand, green energy substitution, and high - sulfur substitution. The domestic supply pressure of refined oil may be transmitted to low - sulfur fuel oil [11]. 3.1.5 Other Chemical Products - Each chemical product has its own supply - demand situation and price trends. For example, methanol's port inventory continues to accumulate, and it fluctuates downward; urea is temporarily undisturbed and the market is weak; ethylene glycol's cost support weakens and port inventory accumulates; etc. [3] 3.2 Variety Data Monitoring 3.2.1 Energy and Chemical Daily Indicator Monitoring - **Inter - period Spread**: The inter - period spreads of different varieties such as Brent, Dubai, PX, PTA, etc., have different changes. For example, Brent's M1 - M2 spread is 0.52 with a change of 0.04 [38]. - **Basis and Warehouse Receipts**: The basis and warehouse receipts of various varieties also show different trends. For example, asphalt's basis is 168 with a change of 31, and the number of warehouse receipts is 73550 [39]. - **Inter - variety Spread**: The inter - variety spreads between different products such as PP - 3MA, TA - EG, etc., have different changes. For example, the 1 - month PP - 3MA spread is - 220 with a change of 110 [40].

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided Group 2: Core Viewpoints of the Report - The overall black commodity futures market is bullish today, with supply-side bullish factors disturbing market sentiment, and the coking coal supply-demand expectation still supporting prices. However, to break through the previous high, continuous reduction in supply leading to a shortage in the spot market is required [1]. Group 3: Summary by Relevant Catalogs Market Overview - Today, black commodity futures are generally bullish. The closing price of rebar is 3,250 yuan/ton, up 1.09%; the main contract of hot-rolled coil closes at 3,465 yuan/ton, up 1.29%; the main contract of iron ore closes at 796.5 yuan/ton; both coking coal and coke rise today, with coking coal leading the increase close to 3% [1]. Market Analysis - **Coking Coal**: The overall recovery of coal mines in the production areas is still slow. Production verification in Shanxi coal mines is advancing, controlling the production of over - producing coal mines in the first half of the year. Some coal mines in Shanxi have issued a 276 - working - day production plan. The expected phased production capacity release is limited. Last week, coal mine output decreased slightly, and the clean coal inventory dropped by 26,000 tons to 2.457 million tons, the lowest since March 2024. The port inventory of imported coking coal decreased significantly by 300,000 tons to 4.6305 million tons, while the daily customs - cleared vehicle number at the Mengmen 288 port has recovered to over 1,300. The blast furnace hot metal output remains above 2.4 million tons, and the sixth round of coke price increase is about to be implemented. The downstream coking and steel enterprises maintain high - level operations. Some offline coal mines have saturated pre - sale orders, supporting coal prices in the short term. However, the speculative demand in the market has cooled down, and the downstream's willingness to accept high - priced coal is low, and the overall online auction failure rate of coking coal has increased slightly week - on - week [1]. - **Coke**: Last Friday, mainstream coking enterprises proposed a sixth - round price increase for coke, with a 50 - yuan/ton increase for tamping wet - quenched coke and a 55 - yuan/ton increase for tamping dry - quenched coke, effective from 0:00 on August 11. Mainstream steel mills postponed the implementation, and the specific implementation time is to be determined. Last week, the profit per ton of coke for 30 independent coking plants nationwide increased by 29 yuan to 16 yuan/ton, the coking enterprise's loss slightly shrank, and the capacity utilization rate slightly rose to 74.03%. The blast furnace hot metal output of steel mills remains above 2.4 million tons, and speculative demand increases with the price rise. The coke inventory of independent coking enterprises decreased by 5.28% to 697,300 tons, and the coke inventory of steel mills decreased by 1.18% to 6.1928 million tons. The port coke inventory slightly increased, and the total inventory reached a 7 - month low, but the year - on - year increase expanded to 16.62%. In general, under the background of steel mill production restrictions in the mainstream regions in the second half of the month, coke prices are supported by raw coal costs but also have a certain callback risk, and there is still room for game between coking and steel enterprises [1]. Investment Suggestions - **Iron Ore**: Pay attention to supply - demand changes and inventory conditions, and avoid chasing high prices [1]. - **Rebar**: Investors are advised to take a short - term oscillatory approach and pay attention to the spread between hot - rolled coil and rebar [1]. - **Hot - Rolled Coil**: Investors are advised to take a short - term high - level consolidation approach and pay attention to supply - demand changes [1]. - **Coking Coal and Coke**: Pay attention to the oscillatory market after the price stabilizes from a decline or the strength - weakness relationship between coking coal and coke [1]. Summary - Overall, supply - side bullish factors disturb market sentiment, and the coking coal supply - demand expectation still supports prices. The futures market has already priced in part of the supply contraction expectation, and continuous reduction in supply leading to a shortage in the spot market is needed to break through the previous high [1].

1. Report Industry Investment Ratings No relevant content was found in the provided reports. 2. Core Views of the Reports 2.1 Pig Industry - The current pig spot price is weak, with smooth downstream procurement and normal slaughterhouse deliveries. Local epidemics continue to suppress the market. The market is currently experiencing weak supply and demand. In August, the slaughter volume of large pig farms is expected to recover, and there is also a need to sell the large pigs previously held back by small farmers. Therefore, the short - term pig price is still not optimistic. The spot price is expected to remain in a bottom - oscillating pattern, and the near - month 09 contract faces strong upward pressure. The far - month 01 contract is greatly affected by policies, and blind short - selling is not recommended. However, when the futures market offers good hedging profits, the impact of hedging funds also needs to be considered [2]. 2.2 Meal Industry - Trump's statement that he hopes China will significantly increase its imports of US soybeans has improved the export outlook for US soybeans, leading to a sharp increase in US soybean prices. The recent continuous increase in Brazilian soybean premiums has supported domestic import costs, but the improved outlook for US soybean imports may suppress price increases. Currently, domestic soybean and soybean meal inventories are continuously rising, and short - term supply remains at a high level, keeping the spot price under pressure. In terms of operations, the strengthening support from US soybeans limits the downward space for domestic soybean meal on a single - side basis. However, if domestic supply increases, it may affect the trend of the 2601 contract on the futures market. Considering the relatively strong performance of oils, investors holding long positions should be cautious [7]. 2.3 Oil Industry No clear overall core view was found in the oil industry report, but price changes and related data for various oils such as soybean oil, palm oil, and rapeseed oil are presented. 2.4 Corn Industry - The current channel inventory of corn is relatively tight, and some traders are willing to support prices. The number of trucks arriving at the market remains low, but the spot price is running weakly due to weak market sentiment and the upcoming new grain harvest in some areas. On the demand side, deep - processing enterprises and feed companies mainly purchase based on rigid demand, with inventory continuously decreasing and no obvious boost in consumption, resulting in general purchasing enthusiasm. In the substitution market, wheat prices are strongly supported by the government's minimum purchase price policy. The price difference between corn and wheat is within the substitution range, squeezing the demand for corn. In summary, the tight supply of remaining grain supports the price, but the weak market sentiment persists, and the futures price remains in a low - level oscillation. In the long term, the cost of new - season corn is expected to decrease, and the output may increase steadily, resulting in supply pressure and a potential decline in the futures price. Attention should be paid to the growth of new - season corn [17]. 2.5 Sugar Industry - ISMA predicts that India's sugar production in the 2025/26 crushing season will reach 34.9 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 18%. The strong production signs have caused the raw sugar price to decline slightly. However, it is worth noting that although Brazil's sugarcane crushing is in full swing and the sugar - making ratio is high, the total sugar production has not increased year - on - year. The expectations of high yields in India and Thailand are high, and attention should be paid to the later weather conditions. It is expected that the raw sugar price will have difficulty falling below the previous low in the short term, but considering the overall production increase pattern, a bearish view should be maintained. The increase in imports and the entry of processed sugar into the market have put pressure on prices. The terminal market demand is average, with most purchases being made as needed, and the willingness to stockpile is low. Therefore, the Zhengzhou sugar futures price is expected to remain bearish [22]. 2.6 Cotton Industry - On the supply side, the spot basis is currently firm. There has been a marginal improvement in the downstream industry this week, but the improvement is not significant. There has been a slight increase in sample orders for grey fabrics in some areas, and the sales of cotton yarn have improved slightly after the cotton price stabilized. The inventory of finished products has stopped accumulating, and the operating rate has temporarily stabilized, providing some support for the cotton price. However, the overall confidence in the downstream industry is still insufficient, and expectations are not high. As the new cotton harvest season approaches, the expected increase in the output of new - season cotton will bring some pressure on the long - term supply. In summary, the domestic cotton price may oscillate within a range in the short term and face pressure after the new cotton is listed [23]. 2.7 Egg Industry - Egg prices have reached a phased low, and downstream traders and food factories may replenish their stocks at low prices, increasing the demand for eggs and supporting price increases. However, the high inventory of laying hens ensures sufficient egg supply, and the impact of cold - stored eggs may suppress the price increase. Overall, the egg futures market remains bearish, and attention should be paid to the potential impact of low - level capital fluctuations [26]. 3.

Report Industry Investment Ratings No relevant information provided. Core Views Copper - In the short - term, copper prices may fluctuate within a range, mainly between 78,000 - 79,500. The macro situation has uncertainties in the interest - rate cut path, and the fundamentals show a stage of weak supply and demand during the off - season, but "tight mine supply + resilient demand" provides price support [1]. Aluminum - For alumina, it is expected to fluctuate widely between 3,000 - 3,400 this week, and it is recommended to short at high levels in the medium - term.
