Industry Investment Rating - No investment rating information is provided in the report. Core Viewpoints - This week (4.21 - 4.27), the spot price of live pigs fluctuated and adjusted, with the futures price showing weak performance. The average slaughter weight increased slightly, and the basis widened. Looking ahead to next week (4.28 - 4.30), the spot price of live pigs is expected to fluctuate weakly, and the pressure on the spot price is expected to increase in May. The trading logic of the futures market is gradually returning to the industrial logic, and attention should be paid to setting stop - loss and take - profit levels. The short - term support level for the LH2509 contract is 13,000 yuan/ton, and the pressure level is 15,000 yuan/ton [1][2][3] Summary by Directory This Week's Market Review (4.21 - 4.27) Spot Market - The price of 20KG piglets in Henan was 45.1 yuan/kg (45.2 yuan/kg last week), the price of live pigs in Henan was 14.95 yuan/kg (15.07 yuan/kg last week), and the price of 50KG binary sows nationwide was 1,635 yuan/head (unchanged from last week). The group's slaughter progress was basically in line with expectations, and retail farmers still had a sentiment of reluctant to sell. The demand for secondary fattening procurement remained at a relatively high level. The average national slaughter weight was 126.32KG (126KG last week), with a month - on - month increase of 0.25% [1] Futures Market - The highest price of the LH2509 contract of live pig futures this week was 14,580 yuan/ton, the lowest price was 13,530 yuan/ton, and the closing price was 14,150 yuan/ton (13,875 yuan/ton last week). The basis of the LH2509 contract was 800 yuan/ton (605 yuan/ton last week) [2] Next Week's Market Outlook (4.28 - 4.30) Spot Market - The spot price of live pigs is expected to fluctuate weakly. During the off - season, the group's adjustment of slaughter has a significant impact on prices. In April, secondary fattening continued to purchase and hold pigs, and the weight continued to increase. The spot price remained in a high - level oscillation. The progress of secondary fattening replenishment was nearly half, and the price difference between fat and lean pigs in the north and south was inverted. In terms of supply, after the replenishment from February to April, the vacancy rate of pens for retail farmers and secondary fattening has decreased, and the inventory accumulation progress has accelerated. The group's slaughter progress is in line with the plan, and the increase in slaughter volume in the second quarter is limited, with a more obvious increase in the third quarter. In terms of demand, it is currently the off - season for consumption, and the demand will drop significantly compared with the peak before the Spring Festival. However, the demand for frozen - to - fresh conversion has increased, and the total slaughter volume has increased year - on - year, maintaining an increasing trend in April. In terms of driving factors, the frozen product port is limited by the expected price peak and capital pressure, and hopes to start warehousing at a price of 13.5 yuan/kg or lower. The import tariff has a limited impact on the total volume, and the cost transmission range exists. Overall, there is still speculative demand support in mid - to - late April, and the inventory accumulation situation has not reached the critical point, but the price difference between the north and south is inverted, and the willingness to replenish at high prices has decreased. It is expected that the spot pressure will increase in May [2] Futures Market - The price of the LH2505 contract closed at 14,150 yuan/ton on April 25. The trend of the September contract this week confirmed the cooling of tariff and macro - sentiment, and the trading logic is gradually returning to the industrial logic. The enthusiasm for secondary fattening replenishment increased significantly in April, and the overall progress has exceeded half. Although the spot price is running strongly, the increase is less than that in the secondary fattening driving stage in previous years, which confirms that the total inventory is not low. As the temperature rises, the price difference between fat and lean pigs in the north and south is inverted. It is expected that the pressure on the spot price will increase in May, and attention should be paid to setting stop - loss and take - profit levels. The short - term support level for the LH2509 contract is 13,000 yuan/ton, and the pressure level is 15,000 yuan/ton [3] Basis and Spread - This week, the basis was 800 yuan/ton, and the spread between LH2507 and LH2509 was - 610 yuan/ton [9] Supply - The data shows the national piglet inventory and the inventory of breeding sows, but specific numerical information is not provided in the text. The weekly average weight was 126.32KG (126KG last week). In February, the pork production was 3.655 billion tons, a month - on - month decrease of 36.5%; in March, the pork import was 91,500 tons, a month - on - month increase of 9.62% [13] Price - The report presents various price charts, including the price trends of live pigs in Henan and Shandong, the average national wholesale price of pork, the average price trend of sows, the price trend of piglets, the ratio of pig to grain, and the cross - regional price difference trends, but specific numerical information is not provided in the text [13][14] Demand - The report shows charts of the weekly fresh sales rate of white - striped pork and the daily slaughter volume of slaughtering enterprises, but specific numerical information is not provided in the text [15]

1. Report Industry Investment Rating There is no information provided regarding the report industry investment rating in the given content. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - Strategy suggestion: Wait for a rebound and then conduct short - selling operations [7] - Market review: The hog price faced downward pressure and declined. The main contract dropped by 2.18% on a weekly basis [8][11] - Market outlook: On the supply side, the entry of secondary fattening decreased. As the May Day holiday approached, some breeders and secondary fatteners sold large hogs, leading to an increase in the average slaughter weight. The spread between standard and fat hogs turned positive, and the prices of feed raw materials rose, increasing the risk of secondary fattening. The pressure caused by the postponed supply may gradually emerge. According to the hog breeding cycle, the sow production capacity is in an increasing cycle in the second and third quarters, and the medium - term supply pressure is expected to increase. On the demand side, the slaughterhouse operating rate rose again last week. As the May Day holiday approaches, the terminal demand may improve later, and the operating rate may maintain a slight upward trend. There are still passive inventory - building phenomena in a few regions. The basis of the main hog contract has retracted from a deep discount to a relatively normal range. In the short term, there is a game between supply and demand, and the hog price will fluctuate. However, the medium - term fundamentals are bearish, and it is expected that the market center will move down slightly in the future [8] 3.

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided on the industry investment rating in the given report. 2. Core Viewpoints - The market logic is gradually returning to the industrial logic. The sentiment of secondary fattening has been positive since April, with the spot price mainly showing a strong upward trend. The May contract is narrowing the basis spread upwards, while the far - month contracts are suppressed by the selling expectation. The industry's continuous profitability time has exceeded expectations, and the near - term inventory accumulation pattern remains unchanged. The far - month contracts offer relatively high hedging profits, so attention should be paid to hedging opportunities while being cautious about setting stop - loss and take - profit levels [3][4]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs This Week's Market Review (4.14 - 4.20) - **Spot Market**: The live pig price showed a strong and volatile trend. The price of 20KG piglets in Henan was 45.2 yuan/kg (the same as last week), the live pig price in Henan was 15.07 yuan/kg (up from 14.82 yuan/kg last week), and the price of 50KG binary sows nationwide was 1635 yuan/head (the same as last week). On the supply side, the group's slaughter progress was basically in line with expectations, and the slaughter of individual farmers decreased. On the demand side, the difference between frozen and fresh meat prices continuously supported demand, and the procurement demand for secondary fattening increased. The average slaughter weight nationwide this week was 126KG (up from 125.64KG last week), with a month - on - month increase of 0.29% [1]. - **Futures Market**: The live pig futures price showed a strong upward trend. The highest price of the LH2505 contract this week was 13890 yuan/ton, the lowest was 13470 yuan/ton, and the closing price was 13875 yuan/ton (compared to 13380 yuan/ton last week). The basis of the LH2505 contract was 1195 yuan/ton (down from 1440 yuan/ton last week) [2]. Next Week's Market Outlook (4.21 - 4.27) - **Spot Market**: The live pig spot price will fluctuate and adjust. Since March, the group's adjustment of slaughter volume has had a significant impact on prices. Secondary fattening has continuously purchased and held pigs, and the pig weight has continued to increase. After the Tomb - Sweeping Festival, the market expectation is weak, which stimulates secondary fatteners to sell before the festival. There may be a wave of selling, which will further narrow the price difference between fat and lean pigs, and the spot performance will continue to exceed expectations. In terms of supply, the vacancy rates of individual farmers and secondary fattening pens are relatively high. High - weight pigs will be sold according to the market, while small - weight pigs will continue to be held. The group's slaughter progress is in line with the plan. According to the sow plan, the increase in slaughter volume in the second quarter is limited, and the increase in the third quarter will be more obvious. In terms of demand, it is currently the off - season for consumption, and the demand will drop significantly compared to the peak before the Spring Festival. However, the demand for converting frozen meat to fresh meat has increased, and the total slaughter volume has increased year - on - year. It is expected that there will also be a small seasonal increase in April. In terms of driving factors, the frozen product sector is limited by the expected price peak and capital pressure, and hopes to start warehousing at a price of 13.5 yuan/kg or lower. Import tariffs have limited impact on the total volume, and the cost transmission range is also limited. Pigs weighing around 300 catties have seen an increased volume of selling before the Tomb - Sweeping Festival, and there is still a willingness to enter the market after the festival. In general, there is still speculative demand support in mid - to - late April, and the inventory accumulation situation has not reached the critical point [3]. - **Futures Market**: The price of the LH2505 contract closed at 13875 yuan/ton on April 18th. As tariff and macro - sentiment cool down, the trading logic is gradually returning to the industrial logic. Since April, the sentiment of secondary fattening has been positive, and the spot price has mainly shown a strong upward trend. The May contract is narrowing the basis spread upwards, while the far - month contracts are suppressed by the selling expectation. Many groups have announced a significant decrease in the breeding cost in March, mainly due to cost reduction driven by management and efficiency improvement. The industry's continuous profitability time has exceeded expectations, and the near - term inventory accumulation pattern remains unchanged. The far - month contracts offer relatively high hedging profits. The short - term support level of the LH2505 contract is 13000 yuan/ton, and the pressure level is 14500 yuan/ton [4]. Other Data - **Basis and Calendar Spread**: This week, the basis was 1195 yuan/ton, and the calendar spread between LH2505 and LH2507 was 215 yuan/ton [9]. - **Supply**: The average weight this week was 126KG (compared to 124.64KG last week). In February, the pork production was 3.655 million tons, a month - on - month decrease of 36.5%, and the pork import volume was 83,500 tons, a month - on - month decrease of 16.94% [12].

Group 1: Report Information - Report Name: Pig Daily Report [1] - Date: April 17, 2025 [2] - Core View: The supply of pigs tends to increase, demand is weakening, and the market is in a state of loose supply and demand. However, the active entry of secondary fattening in the short - term has intercepted part of the supply and boosted the spot price. The futures contracts show a pattern of near - term weakness and long - term strength [8] Group 2: Market Review and Operation Suggestions Pig Market - Futures: On the 16th, the main 2509 contract of live pigs opened slightly lower and fluctuated downwards, closing in the negative. The highest was 14,530 yuan/ton, the lowest was 14,275 yuan/ton, and the closing price was 14,325 yuan/ton, a decrease of 1.17% from the previous day. The total open interest of the index decreased by 2,253 lots to 160,482 lots [7] - Spot: On the 16th, the national average price of foreign ternary pigs was 14.90 yuan/kg, a decrease of 0.06 yuan/kg from the previous day [7] Pig Market Analysis - Demand Side: The utilization rate of pig fattening pens is rising slightly. Due to low fattening costs and favorable fat - standard price differentials, the enthusiasm for secondary fattening has increased recently. As the weather warms, some farmers are replenishing their stocks. Terminal demand is gradually weakening, and the slaughter rate and volume of slaughtering enterprises have decreased. On April 16th, the slaughter volume of sample slaughtering enterprises was 135,900 heads, a decrease of 2,200 heads from the previous day and 1,000 heads from a week ago [8] - Supply Side: The planned sales volume in April is 23.16 million heads, a 3.67% increase from the actual slaughter volume in March and a 7.13% daily increase. In the short - term, the slaughter of farmers has decreased slightly, and the slaughter weight has declined slightly [8] - Overall Market: Supply is increasing, demand is weakening, and the supply - demand relationship is loose. However, the active entry of secondary fattening in the short - term has intercepted part of the supply and boosted the spot price. Futures contracts are at a discount to the spot. Near - term contracts (2505/2507) are weak due to the off - season demand, while the far - term 2509 contract is strong due to expected growth in demand and rising feeding costs [8] Group 3: Industry News - According to Yongyi's tracking and research data, in the week of April 10th, the weekly slaughter volume of the sample was 1.5005 million heads, a decrease of 30,700 heads or 2.01% from the previous week. The average daily slaughter volume of the daily sample was 138,836 heads, a decrease of 1,391 heads or 0.99% from the previous week [9][11] Group 4: Data Overview - On April 10th, the average market price of 15 - kg piglets was 659 yuan/head, unchanged from the previous week [18] - As of April 10th, the average profit per self - bred and self - raised pig was 170 yuan/head, a weekly increase of 18 yuan/head; the average profit per pig fattened with purchased piglets was 161 yuan/head, a weekly increase of 19 yuan/head [18] - As of April 10th, the expected cost of self - bred and self - raised pigs was 13.32 yuan/kg, a weekly increase of 0.08 yuan/kg. The expected cost of fattening purchased piglets to 125 kg for slaughter was 15.23 yuan/kg, a weekly increase of 0.3 yuan/kg [18] - In the week of April 10th, the average slaughter weight nationwide was 128.81 kg, a decrease of 0.08 kg or 0.06% from the previous week [18]

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided Group 2: Core Views of the Report - The market expected a price correction after the Tomb - Sweeping Festival. There was a large amount of second - fattening pig sales before the festival, and the narrowing and inversion of the price difference of 300 - jin fat pigs recently confirmed the sales. The volume of second - fattening pigs waiting to enter the market after the festival is large, so the callback space after the festival is limited, and the secondary inventory accumulation rhythm is expected to be quickly realized. The May and July contracts have already priced in the expected spot price correction in advance. During the holiday, the spot price was strong, and the logic of narrowing the basis may reappear [3]. - The capacity data in March is expected to be good, and the far - month contracts lack upward driving forces, being more likely to fall than to rise. The positive spreads of 5 - 9, 7 - 9, or 7 - 11 have allocation space [3]. - The actual impact of the Sino - US tariff issue is limited, but the sentiment is strong. Pay attention to setting stop - profit and stop - loss levels. The short - term support level for the LH2505 contract is 12,000 yuan/ton, and the pressure level is 14,000 yuan/ton [3].

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - Short - term prices of various products in the feed and breeding industry have different trends, and long - term trends are affected by factors such as supply and demand, production, and consumption seasons. Strategies for different varieties are given based on these trends [1][2][4][7][8] - There are both upward and downward pressures on the prices of different products, and investors need to pay attention to different influencing factors for each product [1][2][4][7][8] Summary by Directory 1. Live Pigs - **Price Situation**: On April 2, the spot price in Liaoning was 14.1 - 14.8 yuan/kg, down 0.1 yuan/kg from the previous day; in Henan, it was 14.4 - 14.9 yuan/kg, also down 0.1 yuan/kg; in Sichuan, it was stable at 14.2 - 14.7 yuan/kg; and in Guangdong, it was stable at 15 - 15.6 yuan/kg [1] - **Short - term Outlook**: Supported by factors like industry profits, low - position entry of second - round fattening, and holiday demand, but also pressured by cautious second - round fattening at high prices, increased large - pig slaughter, and limited terminal consumption. Prices will oscillate around 14 yuan/kg [1] - **Long - term Outlook**: From March to September 2024, supply will increase due to the continuous slow growth of fertile sows from May to November 2024 and improved production performance. The supply pressure in the second quarter is large, and the risk of price decline intensifies.
