Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The sentiment for soybean meal is bullish, but due to the lack of obvious bullish drivers, chasing long positions should be done with caution. Opportunities to go long on dips are recommended. Attention should be paid to the November USDA report and the soybean planting situation in Brazil [1]. - The sentiment for rapeseed meal is also bullish. However, due to the consumption off - season and relatively high port inventories, the rebound space of the main and near - month contracts may be limited. Follow - up developments in China - Canada trade should be monitored [1]. - Palm oil has entered a stage of weakening supply - demand balance. With inventory accumulation in October and weak export data in the first 10 days of November, there is still an expectation of inventory build - up. Caution is needed when going long on palm oil [1]. - Soybean oil is expected to fluctuate bullishly in the short term. Although there is no strong bullish driver currently, it can be treated as a rebound. Attention should be paid to the November USDA report and the weather in Brazil [1]. - Rapeseed oil is expected to be bullish in the short term. The zero - operation of coastal oil mills, zero inventory of rapeseed, and zero import of rapeseed in November have led to a significant rebound in domestic rapeseed oil prices [1]. - Cotton is expected to have a short - term adjustment. The market is digesting the new - season supply pressure, but the consumption outlook may not be overly pessimistic. Attention should be paid to the USDA supply - demand balance sheet on Friday [1]. - For jujubes, the market is expected to fluctuate weakly. Considering the high - inventory of old jujubes and limited acceptance of new products, short - selling operations should be carried out cautiously [1]. - For live pigs, the supply pressure in Q4 remains high. It is recommended to short - sell on rebounds for near - month contracts, be vigilant against the rebound risk of the 01 contract, and consider the 03 contract. Attention should also be paid to the anti - arbitrage opportunities during the downward repair of the far - month premium [1].

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating There is no information provided regarding the report industry investment rating. 2. Report's Core View - The short - term trend of soybean meal, palm oil, and soybean oil futures prices is expected to be oscillating on the strong side, while the medium - term trend is expected to be oscillating [5][6][7]. 3. Summary According to Related Catalogs Soybean Meal (M) - **Day - to - day View**: Oscillating on the strong side [5] - **Medium - term View**: Oscillating [5] - **Reference View**: Oscillating on the strong side [5] - **Core Logic**: After the US government ended the shutdown, the market anticipates that the USDA monthly supply - demand report may lower the US soybean yield forecast. Irregular rainfall in the Brazilian soybean - growing areas has led to the replanting of some soybeans, adding concerns about global supply. In China, although the near - term soybean arrivals are sufficient and the soybean meal inventory is high, concerns about the far - term supply gap provide medium - and long - term support for soybean prices. In the short term, the soybean meal futures price is driven by cost and the expectation of the USDA report, but the rebound space is limited by the domestic spot market's loose pattern [5]. Palm Oil (P) - **Day - to - day View**: Oscillating on the strong side [7] - **Medium - term View**: Oscillating [7] - **Reference View**: Oscillating on the strong side [7] - **Core Logic**: The favorable biodiesel policy in Indonesia offsets the supply pressure, but the weak exports of Malaysian palm oil and the decline in India's import share still drag down the palm oil futures price. In China, the increase in palm oil purchases and the growing expectation of inventory accumulation mean there is a lack of short - term upward drivers. The palm oil market should focus on the production and sales data of Malaysian palm oil and the progress of Indonesia's biodiesel policy. In the short term, the overall price of edible oils has stopped falling and stabilized, the palm oil futures price is oscillating on the strong side, and the price spread between soybean oil and palm oil is being repaired [7]. Other Information on Time Cycles and Influencing Factors - **Time Cycle Definition**: Short - term refers to within one week, and medium - term refers to two weeks to one month (based on the previous day's night - session closing price) [6] - **Influencing Factors**: For soybean meal 2601, the influencing factors include China's tariffs on the US, import arrival rhythm, oil refinery operation rhythm, and inventory pressure; for soybean oil 2601, they include Sino - US relations, US biofuel policy, US soybean oil inventory, domestic soybean cost support, supply rhythm, and oil refinery inventory; for palm 2601, they include the biodiesel attribute, Malaysian palm oil production and exports, Indonesian exports, the tariff policies of major producing countries, domestic arrivals and inventory, and substitution demand [6]

Report Industry Investment Ratings - Crude oil: ★☆☆ (One star, indicating a bearish bias, with a driving force for a downward trend but limited operability on the market) [1] - Fuel oil: ★☆☆ (One star, indicating a bearish bias, with a driving force for a downward trend but limited operability on the market) [1] - Low-sulfur fuel oil: ★☆☆ (One star, indicating a bearish bias, with a driving force for a downward trend but limited operability on the market) [1] - Asphalt: ★☆☆ (One star, indicating a bearish bias, with a driving force for a downward trend but limited operability on the market) [1] - Liquefied petroleum gas: ☆☆☆ (White star, indicating a relatively balanced short-term long/short trend and poor operability on the current market, suggesting a wait-and-see approach) [1] Core Views - The market is pessimistic about crude oil prices due to factors such as OPEC's adjustment of the balance sheet and increased US API crude oil inventories, and there is still room for prices to decline within the year [2] - Fuel oil prices follow the cost side down, while the low-sulfur market's fundamentals have improved, and the previously arranged strategy of widening the high-low sulfur spread has gradually materialized [2] - The decline of asphalt has slowed down, but the fundamentals are still bearish in the medium and long term [3] - The international LPG market is strong, with tight supply and improved demand, so LPG is expected to fluctuate upward [4] Summary by Related Catalogs Crude Oil - Overnight international oil prices dropped significantly, with the SC12 contract falling 3.66%. OPEC's November report adjusted the balance sheet from shortage to balance, and last week's US API crude oil inventories increased by 1.3 million barrels [2] - Since November, the crude oil monthly spread and spot premium/discount have weakened again, and there is still room for prices to decline within the year. Continuously monitor opportunities to short on price rebounds [2] Fuel Oil & Low-Sulfur Fuel Oil - Fuel oil prices followed the cost side down due to the pessimistic sentiment from OPEC's balance sheet adjustment. The main support for high-sulfur fuel oil comes from supply risks caused by Russia's refinery capacity constraints, but increased Middle Eastern high-sulfur resources form a hedge [2] - The demand side is weak, with the end of the Middle Eastern power generation peak season, the easing of the Israel-Palestine conflict, and expected early issuance of 2026 crude oil quotas [2] - The low-sulfur market benefits from supply pressure relief and support from the transfer production logic. The fundamentals have improved in the fourth quarter, and the previously arranged strategy of widening the high-low sulfur spread has gradually materialized, and it can be considered to take profits in a timely manner [2] Asphalt - The decline of asphalt has slowed down under the background of a sharp drop in crude oil prices, and the 2601 contract has certain support at 3000 yuan/ton [3] - The poor shipment volume has falsified the expectation of rush demand in the "14th Five-Year Plan" closing year and released a negative signal that demand is lower than the same period last year [3] - Commercial inventory destocking has slowed down, and the year-on-year increase in social inventory has expanded. Fundamentals are still bearish in the medium and long term [3] Liquefied Petroleum Gas - The international LPG market is strong, with tight supply of imported resources. Improved profitability of butane dehydrogenation units has boosted downstream chemical plant operating rates, and cold weather has increased combustion demand [4] - Refinery and port storage rates have decreased, and the supply-demand relationship has tightened marginally, so LPG is expected to fluctuate upward [4]

However, different metals have different supply - demand situations and price trends [1][7][11] - Gold and silver are supported by factors such as potential interest rate cuts and central bank purchases, with long - term strategic investment value [1][4] - Copper is expected to have a long - term upward trend due to tight copper concentrate supply and growing green copper demand [1][6][7] - Zinc has short - term supply - demand weakness, with inventory accumulation both at home and abroad, and a long - term trend of supply increase and demand decrease [1][10][11] - Aluminum is affected by overseas production cuts and inventory changes, with short - term price increases [1][14][15] - Nickel has weak terminal demand, with inventory accumulation and a relatively weak price trend [1][18][19] - Lithium carbonate has a tight supply - demand situation, with continuous inventory reduction, but there are also factors that may limit price increases [1][22][23] Summary by Related Catalogs Gold and Silver - **Market Review**: Weak US data intensifies December interest rate cut predictions, and the market amplifies unexpected data, leading to strong performance of precious metals [2] - **Basic Logic**: The 43 - day US government shutdown is approaching an end, which may reduce Q4 economic growth. There are signs of widespread inflation slowdown, and the housing rental market is weak. China's central bank has continuously increased its gold reserves. In the long term, gold may benefit from global monetary easing, the decline of the US dollar's credit, and geopolitical restructuring [3][4] - **Strategy Recommendation**: In the short term, domestic gold has support at 935, and silver has strong support at 12000. Long - term value - oriented positions should be held [4] Copper - **Market Review**: Shanghai copper oscillates upward [5][6] - **Industrial Logic**: In Q3 2025, the output of major global copper mines decreased by nearly 5% year - on - year, and the decline is expected to continue in Q4. Refined copper supply has shrunk. Consumption has entered the off - season, and the downstream start - up rate is weak year - on - year. Copper has been included in the US key minerals list [6] - **Strategy Recommendation**: With the end of the US government shutdown, the market risk appetite has increased. Copper is expected to be bullish in the long term. It is recommended to buy on dips near the moving average with light positions. Long - term strategic positions should be held. The short - term trading range for Shanghai copper is [85000, 88000] yuan/ton, and for London copper is [10500, 11000] US dollars/ton [7] Zinc - **Market Review**: Shanghai zinc rebounds after testing the support at 22500 [9][10] - **Industrial Logic**: Overseas zinc mine production has declined recently, leading to a short - term tightening of zinc concentrate supply. The processing fee for domestic zinc concentrate has continued to decline. Consumption is entering the off - season, and the galvanizing start - up rate has decreased. The zinc ingot export window has opened, and inventories at home and abroad have accumulated [10] - **Strategy Recommendation**: With the end of the US government shutdown, the market risk appetite has recovered, but zinc demand is weak. It is recommended to take profit on long positions on rebounds. In the long term, short on rebounds. The trading range for Shanghai zinc is [22400, 22800] yuan/ton, and for London zinc is [3000, 3100] US dollars/ton [11] Aluminum - **Market Review**: Aluminum prices rise and then fall, and alumina shows a relatively weak trend [12][13] - **Industrial Logic**: Overseas, the expectation of an end - of - year interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve has weakened. There have been production cuts at overseas electrolytic aluminum plants, and it is expected that there will be further cuts in March next year. Domestic aluminum downstream processing start - up rates are decreasing. The alumina market is currently in an oversupply situation, but there may be some support from production cuts by high - cost enterprises [14] - **Strategy Recommendation**: It is recommended to take profit on Shanghai aluminum positions on short - term rallies. Pay attention to the start - up changes of downstream processing enterprises. The main operating range is [21000 - 21900] yuan/ton [15] Nickel - **Market Review**: Nickel prices continue to decline, and stainless steel shows a weak trend [16][17] - **Industrial Logic**: The expectation of an end - of - year interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve has weakened overseas. The inventory of nickel mines at domestic ports has decreased, but global nickel inventory has continued to accumulate. The stainless steel market is approaching the end of the peak season, and there is a risk of inventory accumulation [18] - **Strategy Recommendation**: It is recommended to short on rebounds for nickel and stainless steel. Pay attention to downstream consumption and stainless steel inventory changes. The main operating range for nickel is [118500 - 121000] yuan/ton [19] Lithium Carbonate - **Market Review**: The main contract LC2601 opens slightly higher, rises and then falls, with wide - range oscillations throughout the day [20][21] - **Industrial Logic**: The supply - demand situation remains tight, with continuous inventory reduction for 12 weeks and an expanding reduction amplitude. Domestic production has reached new highs, and imports are expected to increase in November. The terminal market is strong, but there are factors that may limit price increases [22] - **Strategy Recommendation**: Take profit on long positions near the previous high [85000 - 86600] [23]
