More active macro - policies should be implemented to expand domestic demand and optimize supply [4]. - In the future, "expanding domestic demand and combating cut - throat competition" will remain important long - term policy measures. The financial market is in a state of "weak reality, strong expectation", and the market sentiment is continuously improving. In 2026, the macro - economy and asset prices are expected to continue the upward repair trend, but patience is required [4]. 3.

If the recent trend does not form a reverse - enveloping negative line with increased volume, the stock index may enter an adjustment phase [10]. 3.2.2 Bond Futures - The money market is balanced and slightly loose near the tax payment period. The short - end is supported by the money market, while the ultra - long - end is weak. After the structural interest - rate cut, the short - term possibility of an interest - rate cut has decreased significantly, but the long - term easing expectation has been repaired. It is recommended to adopt an oscillating strategy [11][12]. 3.3 Black 3.3.1 Steel and Iron Ore - From a policy perspective, macro - policies such as interest - rate cuts are slightly positive, but have limited short - term impact on demand. From a fundamental perspective, steel is in a de - stocking state, and the current order situation is okay. However, downstream demand is still weak.

It is recommended to wait and see. The weak consumption and the increase in inventory due to transportation problems are the main factors affecting the price [21][23]. 3.4.3 Lithium Carbonate - Under strong supervision, the market sentiment has declined, and lithium carbonate is expected to operate in a weak oscillating state in the short term.

The contradiction between pre - festival replenishment and the decline in production start - up has led to a short - term consolidation of Zheng cotton. Short - term trading is recommended [28]. 3.5.2 Sugar - The domestic sugar market is in a season of strong supply and demand. Zheng sugar is oscillating and consolidating, and short - term trading in the low - price range is recommended [30]. 3.5.3 Eggs - As the Spring Festival approaches, the egg - stocking intensity may peak and then weaken, and the pre - festival spot price may weaken.

The price is expected to oscillate within a range, and the key observation point is the concentrated release of grain sales in March [36]. 3.5.6 Jujubes - Jujubes are expected to oscillate. The market performance during the consumption peak season should be closely monitored, and attention should be paid to the changes in the sales area's sales rhythm and the mentality of purchasers [37]. 3.5.7 Live Pigs - The supply - side slaughter progress is slow, and the short - term spot price is strong, but the upward space is limited. It is advisable to short - sell near - month contracts on rallies [38]. 3.6 Energy and Chemical 3.6.1 Crude Oil - Frequent geopolitical conflicts in the Middle East have supported the rise in crude oil prices, but recently, the panic has subsided, and the oil price has weakened.

It is recommended to consider a weak oscillating strategy and beware of callback risks [42]. 3.6.3 Rubber - Affected by the decline in overseas raw material prices and inventory accumulation, the rubber market has weakened. However, pre - festival downstream replenishment and the approaching of the overseas production area's shutdown season may support the market. It is advisable to sell out - of - the - money put options on dips [42]. 3.6.4 Synthetic Rubber - Synthetic rubber may turn weak in the short term. It is advisable to stop losses and wait and see when the short - selling price drops to a low level [43]. 3.6.5 Methanol - The actual supply - demand situation of methanol has improved slightly, and short - term de - stocking is smooth. However, there is still a possibility of inventory accumulation at the end of the month. In the long term, the fundamentals are improving. It is advisable to wait for the far - month contracts to adjust and then consider long positions [43][44]. 3.6.6 Caustic Soda - The caustic soda industry has a high start - up rate and high inventory. The price of liquid chlorine is strong, and the comprehensive profit of chlor - alkali enterprises is okay, so there is no motivation to cut production. It is recommended to consider a short - selling strategy [45]. 3.6.7 Polyester Industry Chain - The polyester industry chain is under pressure due to the weakening demand. In the short term, short - selling on rallies can be considered, and in the medium term, positive spreads between May and September contracts of PX and PTA can be considered [46]. 3.6.8 Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) - LPG has fallen after rising, affected by the easing of crude oil and geopolitical conflicts, but the price center has still moved up. In the short term, it has upward momentum, but the long - term upside space is limited. Light - position short - selling can be considered [47]. 3.6.9 Pulp - As downstream replenishment ends, the pulp market has weakened. However, the strong overseas prices and the relatively stable fundamentals provide support. The market is expected to oscillate [50]. 3.6.10 Logs - The fundamentals of logs are weakly oscillating, and the spot price is temporarily stable. The market is expected to maintain a weak supply - demand balance, and the futures market is expected to oscillate [51]. 3.6.11 Urea - In the short term, the spot market for urea has weakened, but the futures market still has strong expectations. The futures may trade the expectation of strong demand after a correction [52].
