1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The global crude oil market is in a state of continuous inventory accumulation, and geopolitical uncertainties are causing oil prices to continue to fluctuate. The chemical industry is expected to be volatile, and investors should approach it with a range - bound mindset [2][3]. - Different energy and chemical products have different trends. For example, crude oil is range - bound, some products like asphalt and high - sulfur fuel oil are weak, while low - sulfur fuel oil may be strong, and most chemical products are expected to fluctuate [4]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Market Situation of Crude Oil and Chemicals - **Crude Oil**: Global crude oil inventories have reached a new high for the year, and the US NGL inventory has reached a record high for the same period. The lack of short - term drivers is causing the market to continue to fluctuate [2]. - **Chemicals**: On Monday, chemicals slightly stabilized within a limited range. Ethylene glycol started to accumulate inventory, while pure benzene and styrene both saw inventory reductions. PX and PTA are the strongest in the chemical sector, but it is still difficult for them to outperform crude oil [3]. 3.2 Outlook for Each Product - **Crude Oil**: Short - term drivers are lacking, and the market will continue to oscillate. The increase in global inventory shows supply pressure, but the reduction in refined oil inventory pressure and strong crack spreads support demand. OPEC+ is cautious about increasing production [8]. - **Asphalt**: Spot prices are falling, and the futures price is fluctuating. After the OPEC+ increase in production and the end of the Palestine - Israel conflict, the price has broken through an important support level, and the over - valuation premium is starting to decline [9]. - **High - Sulfur Fuel Oil**: It is in a weak and volatile state. Although the Palestine - Israel conflict has ended, the Russia - Ukraine conflict continues to escalate, and demand is still weak [9]. - **Low - Sulfur Fuel Oil**: Refined oil is strong, so low - sulfur fuel oil may run strongly. However, it faces negative factors such as a decline in shipping demand, green energy substitution, and high - sulfur substitution [11]. - **PX**: Cost changes are limited, and the market is affected by sentiment and funds. The fundamentals are generally stable, with strong supply and demand, and it is expected to be slightly bullish in the short term [13]. - **PTA**: Driven by the upstream, the center of gravity has shifted upward. There is no unexpected reduction in supply, and it is expected to run slightly bullish in the short term [13]. - **Pure Benzene**: The port has resumed inventory accumulation, and it is running weakly. The spread between pure benzene and naphtha is at a low level in recent years, and the upward drive is currently insufficient [14][15]. - **Styrene**: There is still a risk of over - inventory, and it is oscillating weakly. The new production capacity is expected to be put into operation, and the pressure on the cost side of pure benzene is increasing [16]. - **Ethylene Glycol**: Supply - demand and cost support are in a tug - of - war. It will maintain a low - level range - bound operation in the short term, with significant upward pressure [17][18]. - **Short - Fiber**: The cost is strong, but demand is weak, and the processing fee is under pressure. It is expected to follow the upstream market and the processing fee may be compressed [21][22]. - **Bottle Chip**: It is passively following the rise of raw materials. The processing fee has a stronger support at the bottom [23][24]. - **Methanol**: High inventory is suppressing the market, and overseas disturbances are not significant. It is oscillating and consolidating [25]. - **Urea**: Export information has boosted the spot market, but downstream transactions are cautious. The futures price is expected to oscillate in the short term [25]. - **Plastic (LLDPE)**: Downstream transactions have increased, but the support from maintenance is limited. It is oscillating [27]. - **PP**: Production is still at a high level, and it is oscillating [28]. - **PL**: Inventory needs time to be digested, and it is oscillating [29]. - **PVC**: Weak fundamentals are suppressing the market. It is expected to be weakly volatile, and attention should be paid to whether the cost can support the market [31]. - **Caustic Soda**: It has a low valuation and weak expectations. It is oscillating, and the price may be stable [32]. 3.3 Variety Data Monitoring - **Inter - Period Spreads**: Different products have different inter - period spread values and changes, such as Brent's M1 - M2 spread is 0.25 with a change of 0.01, and PX's 1 - 5 month spread is 18 with a change of 18 [34]. - **Basis and Warehouse Receipts**: Each product has its own basis and warehouse receipt situation. For example, the basis of asphalt is - 26 with a change of - 28, and the number of warehouse receipts is 7690 [35]. - **Inter - Variety Spreads**: There are also different inter - variety spread values and changes, like the 1 - month PP - 3MA spread is 177 with a change of 49 [37]. 3.4 Index Information - **Comprehensive Index**: The comprehensive index of CITIC Futures commodities on November 10, 2025, shows that the commodity index, commodity 20 index, and industrial products index all have positive growth rates [278]. - **Sector Index**: The energy index on November 10, 2025, has a daily increase of 0.35%, a 5 - day decrease of 0.39%, a 1 - month increase of 1.85%, and a year - to - date decrease of 5.45% [279].

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core View of the Report - In the short - term, crude oil is likely to continue oscillating as it lacks both short - term supply - demand and geopolitical drivers. After the Venezuelan situation develops, there may be an opportunity for a high - level short position this year. Among the energy and chemical products, polyester is hyped for supply cuts. Styrene has short - term supply - demand improvement but significant medium - term supply pressure. Methanol has clear medium - term upward drivers and can be considered a long - position core variety [1]. Summary by Directory Crude Oil - Logic: From this year to the first quarter of next year, the pressure of crude oil supply surplus is still significant. However, due to the low - level inventory and the delay of the expected supply shock, combined with the digestion of previous short - term geopolitical events, it will likely oscillate until new variables emerge. Pay attention to the Venezuelan situation for a high - level short - selling opportunity [3]. - Technical Analysis: It shows a medium - term downward structure on the daily line and a short - term oscillating structure on the hourly line. It oscillates during the day. The hourly cycle strategy suggests waiting and seeing [3]. Styrene - Logic: Recently, with more maintenance, the operating rate has dropped to the lowest in the same period in recent years, but the production is still at the highest in the same period. Although the inventory is in the seasonal destocking stage, the destocking rate is lower than in previous years. In the medium term, the situation is still pessimistic, especially in the first quarter of next year [5]. - Technical Analysis: It has a short - term downward structure on the hourly line. It oscillates during the day, with signs of short - position profit - taking. The upper short - term pressure is at 6345. It is recommended to take profit actively when geopolitical risks reappear and look for short - position re - entry opportunities after the daily - line rebound [8]. Rubber - Logic: Since August, the downward trend of rubber has been less smooth than that of synthetic rubber. The supply pressure of natural rubber is not obvious in the rainy season in Southeast Asia since October. The key is to focus on the driving effect of synthetic rubber [10]. - Technical Analysis: It shows a medium - term downward structure on the daily line and a short - term downward structure on the hourly line. It rebounds with reduced positions today, but the downward structure remains unchanged, and the upper short - term pressure is at 15170. The hourly - level strategy is to wait and see [11][13]. Synthetic Rubber - Logic: The main driver is the cost - end butadiene. Although the current inventory has not increased significantly, the high supply pressure of butadiene in the medium term will still be prominent. It is recommended to take profit on previous short positions and wait for a high - level short - selling opportunity after the crude oil rebound [16][18]. - Technical Analysis: It shows a medium - term downward structure on the daily line and a short - term downward structure on the hourly line. It rebounds with reduced positions today, and the upper short - term pressure is at 10500. It is recommended to take profit actively when geopolitical risks reappear and look for short - position re - entry opportunities after the daily - line rebound [18]. PX - Logic: There are few contradictions in polyester itself, but after the industry development symposium, there are many rumors of polyester industry production cuts, and the market has been trading with increasing positions. Pay attention to the realization of expectations [22]. - Technical Analysis: It has a short - term upward structure on the hourly line. It rises with increasing positions today, and the lower short - term support is at 6715. The hourly - level strategy is to wait and see [22]. PTA - Logic: Similar to PX, there are few contradictions in polyester itself, and pay attention to the realization of production - cut rumors [24]. - Technical Analysis: It has a short - term upward structure on the hourly line. It rises with reduced positions today, and the lower short - term support is at 4620. The hourly - level strategy is to wait and see [24]. PP - Logic: After the commissioning of the Guangxi Petrochemical plant, the supply pressure increases, and the downstream demand recovery is limited. Pay attention to the cost - end crude oil drive [27]. - Technical Analysis: It has a short - term downward structure on the hourly line. It oscillates during the day, and the upper short - term pressure is at 6530. It is recommended to take profit actively when geopolitical risks reappear [27]. Methanol - Logic: The current high - supply, high - import, and high - inventory situation continues, and the market is still in the bottom - finding stage. For short - sellers, it is not advisable to chase short positions. For long - buyers, there are medium - term long - entry opportunities when the short - term structure changes and specific events occur [32]. - Technical Analysis: It shows a medium - term and short - term downward structure on the daily line. It rebounds after hitting a new low today, and the upper short - term pressure moves down to 2150. It is recommended to take profit on short positions at 2150 and look for long - entry opportunities after the short - term structure reverses [32]. PVC - Logic: The supply remains high, the domestic real - estate demand collapses, and the social inventory has reached the highest level in history. There is no upward driving force [35]. - Technical Analysis: It shows a medium - term downward structure on the daily line and a short - term downward structure on the hourly line. It oscillates during the day, and the upper short - term pressure moves down to 4640. The hourly - cycle short - position strategy can be held according to the technical analysis [35]. Ethylene Glycol - Logic: The supply is at a high level, and the supply pressure increases with new capacity. Be vigilant against short - term geopolitical risks in crude oil [37]. - Technical Analysis: It shows a medium - term and short - term downward structure on the daily and hourly lines respectively. It oscillates near the pressure level during the day, and the upper short - term pressure is at 3950. It is recommended to take profit actively when geopolitical risks reappear [37]. Plastic - Logic: After the commissioning of the Guangxi Petrochemical plant, the supply pressure increases, and the downstream demand in the peak season is weak. Be vigilant against short - term geopolitical risks in crude oil [39]. - Technical Analysis: It shows a medium - term and short - term downward structure on the daily and hourly lines respectively. It oscillates during the day, and the upper short - term pressure is at 6850. It is recommended to take profit actively when geopolitical risks reappear [39]. Soda Ash - Logic: The pattern of high supply and high inventory continues, and the downward driving force remains unchanged. There is a rebound today due to rumors of some enterprises' production suspension [44]. - Technical Analysis: It has a short - term downward structure on the hourly line. It oscillates during the day, and the upper short - term pressure is at 1245. The 15 - minute cycle structure turns bullish, and the hourly level shows resistance to decline. It is recommended to hold the remaining short positions cautiously with 1245 as the profit - taking level [44]. Caustic Soda - Logic: The pattern of high supply and high inventory continues, and there is no upward driving force in supply - demand [45]. - Technical Analysis: It has a short - term downward structure on the hourly line. It oscillates during the day, and the upper short - term pressure is at 2400. The hourly - level strategy is to wait and see [45].

Core Views of the Report - **Steel products**: Rebar shows a supply-demand weakness in the off - season with production and apparent demand decreasing. Hot - rolled coil has falling production and demand, and a slight inverse - seasonal increase in inventory. Both are under pressure from the falling hot metal production [1][4][5] - **Iron ore**: This week, hot metal production decreased significantly due to environmental control and steel mill maintenance. With steel mills reducing inventory and ports accumulating inventory, and large - scale arrival of foreign ores, the short - term ore price is expected to fluctuate weakly [1][6][7] - **Coke**: The third round of price increase has been implemented, and the fourth round has started. Although coke enterprises' profits have slightly improved, they are still mostly in the loss state. The short - term replenishment enthusiasm is okay, and it runs in a range following the coking coal price [1][9][10] - **Coking coal**: Affected by safety inspections and environmental protection, the coal mine operating rate has decreased. With low inventory, sufficient pre - orders, and good sales, the short - term supply - demand pattern is healthy, and the price is expected to maintain a range [1][12][13] - **Ferroalloys**: For silicomanganese, supply is slightly down but still high, and demand is weakening with increasing inventory. For ferrosilicon, production area operating rate is increasing, demand is weakening, and inventory is increasing significantly [1][16][17] 3. Summaries According to Related Catalogs Steel Products - **Rebar**: Production and apparent demand decreased month - on - month, inventory decreased with a weaker - than - seasonal decline. It is testing the support at 3000 and may fluctuate at low levels [1][4][5] - **Hot - rolled coil**: Production and apparent demand declined, inventory increased slightly against the season, showing inventory pressure. It runs in a medium - term range and may have short - term rebounds after continuous declines [1][4][5] Iron Ore - The hot metal production decreased significantly this week. Steel mills are reducing inventory, ports are accumulating inventory, and foreign ore arrivals have increased. The short - term price is expected to be weakly volatile [1][6][7] Coke - The third - round price increase has been completed, and the fourth round has started. Coke enterprises' profits have slightly improved but are still mostly in losses. The short - term replenishment enthusiasm is okay, and it follows the coking coal price [1][9][10] Coking Coal - Affected by safety inspections and environmental protection, the coal mine operating rate decreased. With low inventory, sufficient pre - orders, and good sales, the short - term price is expected to be range - bound [1][12][13] Ferroalloys - **Silicomanganese**: Supply in the production area decreased slightly but is still at a high level. Demand is weakening, inventory is increasing with a slower growth rate. The short - term cost has some support [1][16][17] - **Ferrosilicon**: The production area operating rate is increasing, demand is weakening, and inventory is increasing significantly.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No specific industry investment rating is provided in the report. 2. Report's Core View - The soybean meal market is affected by both the support of import costs and the pressure of domestic fundamentals, with high - level volatility of short - term futures prices intensifying [5]. - The palm oil market is suppressed by inventory pressure, weak demand, and the external market environment, and short - term futures prices will remain weak in the oil market [7]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Soybean Meal (M) - **Market Conditions**: Short - term, medium - term, and intraday views are all "oscillating weakly". The core logic includes China's tariff policy on the US, import and arrival rhythm, oil mill start - up rhythm, and inventory pressure [5][6]. - **Driving Factors**: After China adjusted the tariff policy on the US, although the 10% additional tariff was cancelled, the 13% benchmark tariff was retained, weakening the cost support of US soybean futures on the domestic market. Domestic spot pressure has increased significantly, with high inventory, weak demand from the breeding end, and obvious pressure on spot prices [5]. 3.2 Palm Oil (P) - **Market Conditions**: Short - term view is "weak", medium - term and intraday views are "oscillating weakly". The core logic involves bio - diesel attributes, palm oil production and exports in Malaysia and Indonesia, tariff policies of major producing countries, domestic arrival and inventory, and substitution demand [6][7]. - **Driving Factors**: It is expected that the Malaysian palm oil inventory at the end of October will increase by 3.5% month - on - month to 2.44 million tons, reaching a two - year high, and production may reach a seven - year high. Weak international crude oil prices and a stronger ringgit exchange rate have reduced the attractiveness and price competitiveness of palm oil. Demand is also weak, with India's palm oil imports in October dropping to a five - month low [7].

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant information provided Group 2: Core Views of the Report - For crude oil, although the geopolitical premium has disappeared and OPEC's production increase is minimal, supply has not yet increased significantly, so short - term bearish sentiment on oil prices should be cautious. Maintain a range - trading strategy of buying low and selling high, but currently wait and see to test OPEC's export price - support intention [2] - For methanol, with rising domestic production and high imports, supply pressure increases. Demand is weak, leading to high enterprise and port inventories. The weak reality remains unchanged, and the high - inventory problem of the 01 contract may further suppress the spot price. It is recommended to wait and see [3] - For urea, prices are consolidating at a low level with low volatility. The fundamentals lack drivers, and supply and demand are relatively loose. There is limited upward momentum, but the downside space is also limited at current low prices. It is advisable to wait and see [5] - For rubber, prices are rebounding as expected. Set stop - losses and conduct short - term long trades on pullbacks. Partially build positions for the hedge of buying RU2601 and selling RU2609 [11] - For PVC, the supply is strong and demand is weak, with poor export prospects. There is continuous inventory accumulation pressure. It is recommended to consider short - selling on rallies in the medium term [13] - For pure benzene and styrene, pure benzene prices are falling, while styrene futures prices are rising. The BZN spread has room for upward repair. Styrene prices may stop falling in the short term due to high - level inventory reduction [16] - For polyethylene, the PE valuation has limited downward space, but high - level warehouse receipts suppress the market. With the arrival of the seasonal peak season, prices may remain range - bound at a low level [19] - For polypropylene, in a context of weak supply and demand with high inventory pressure, there is no prominent short - term contradiction. The price may be supported when the supply - surplus situation of the cost side changes in the first quarter of next year [22] - For PX, it is expected to have a slight inventory increase in November, with prices mainly following crude oil fluctuations. There may be opportunities for valuation increases in the medium term [25] - For PTA, continuous inventory accumulation is expected in November, and processing fees are under pressure. There may be opportunities for PTA to strengthen driven by the increase in PXN in the medium term [28] - For ethylene glycol, there is expected to be continuous inventory accumulation in the fourth quarter. It is recommended to short on rallies [30] Group 3: Summary by Related Catalogs Crude Oil - **Market Information**: INE's main crude oil futures closed up 0.10 yuan/barrel, a 0.02% increase, at 460.60 yuan/barrel.

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The current macro - level is in a relatively vacuum period, A - shares lack a clear upward main line, market trading volume remains low, and the stock index continues to fluctuate, accumulating momentum for the next round of upward movement. Meanwhile, with policy support and abundant macro - liquidity, there is still strong support below the stock index [1]. Summary by Related Catalogs Macro Finance - **Treasury Bonds**: Asset shortage and weak economy are beneficial to bond futures, but the central bank has recently warned of interest - rate risks, suppressing the upward space, showing an oscillating trend [1]. - **Copper**: The tight pattern of US dollar liquidity has eased, market risk appetite has recovered, and copper prices have stopped falling [1]. - **Aluminum**: Recently, the industrial - side driving force is limited, and the macro - level benefits have been digested, so aluminum prices are oscillating [1]. - **Alumina**: With still a small profit in production, domestic alumina production capacity is continuously released, and both production and inventory are increasing, putting pressure on the spot price. Recently, attention should be paid to the cost support [1]. - **Zinc**: The US government shutdown has reached the longest historical record, and market risk - aversion sentiment has increased. The LME zinc inventory has been continuously decreasing, and the short - squeeze movement has driven zinc prices higher. However, considering the domestic oversupply, caution is needed when chasing high prices [1]. Non - ferrous Metals - **Nickel**: The better - than - expected US ADP data has alleviated concerns about the US economic recession, but the expectation of the Fed's interest - rate cut has been suppressed, and market risk appetite has fluctuated. Indonesia has recently restricted the approval of nickel - related smelting projects again, but the approved projects are not affected. In the fourth quarter, attention should be paid to the approval of nickel - ore quotas in 2026. Nickel prices may oscillate in the short term, and high inventory pressure should be watched out for. It is recommended to trade within a short - term range, and the long - term surplus pattern of primary nickel will continue [1]. - **Stainless Steel**: The better - than - expected US ADP data has alleviated concerns about the US economic recession, but the expectation of the Fed's interest - rate cut has been suppressed, and market risk appetite has fluctuated. Indonesia has restricted the approval of nickel - related smelting projects again, but the approved projects are not affected. In the fourth quarter, attention should be paid to the progress of the approval of Indonesian nickel - ore quotas, and the premium at the ore end is currently stable. The price of raw - material ferronickel has weakened slightly, the social inventory of stainless steel has decreased slightly, and the steel mills' production plan for October is stable. Macro - sentiment is fluctuating, steel mills have recently lifted price limits, and stainless - steel futures are oscillating at the bottom. It is recommended to trade short - term and look for opportunities to sell on rallies [1]. - **Tin**: Recently, the positive macro - sentiment has been digested. Considering that the raw - material end of tin has not recovered and the new - quality demand is expected to be good, it is still recommended to pay attention to the opportunity of going long on dips in the long - term [1]. Precious Metals and New Energy - **Precious Metals (Gold and Silver)**: Judges of the high - court generally question the legitimacy of tariffs, increasing market uncertainty and supporting precious - metal prices. However, the resilience of US economic data has disrupted the interest - rate cut expectation. Precious metals are expected to oscillate within a range in the short term [1]. - **Industrial Silicon**: The production capacity in the northwest is continuously resuming, the start - up in the southwest is weaker than in previous years, and the impact of the dry season is weakened [1]. - **Polysilicon**: In the long - term, there is an expectation of production - capacity reduction. In the fourth quarter, the terminal installation will increase marginally. The anti - involution policy has not been implemented for a long time, and market sentiment has faded [1]. - **Lithium Carbonate**: The traditional peak season for new - energy vehicles is approaching, the energy - storage demand is strong, but the hedging pressure is large [1]. Ferrous Metals - **Rebar**: There are concerns about the potential weakening of industrial demand in the off - season. After the macro - sentiment is realized, attention should be paid to the upward pressure. It is advisable to participate in the out - of - the - money accumulative put option strategy [1]. - **Hot - Rolled Coil**: The off - season effect of the industry is not obvious, but the industrial structure is still loose. Similarly, attention should be paid to the upward pressure on prices after the macro - sentiment is realized [1]. - **Iron Ore**: Near - month production is restricted, but the commodity sentiment is good, and there is still an upward opportunity for far - month contracts [1]. - **Sulfur**: The direct demand is good, and there is cost support, but the supply is high, inventory is accumulating, and the sector is under pressure, with limited price rebound space [1]. - **Coke and Coking Coal**: Coking coal is struggling near the previous high, repeatedly testing the support. The high point of the coke futures price has included the expectation of five rounds of price increases, but the actual three - round price increase has been delayed, and the game is intense. Based on the tight supply, coke and coking coal are relatively strong, but considering the weakening of steel prices and the potential weakening of steel demand in November, the futures prices of coke and coking coal are likely to return to the oscillating range after a false breakout. In the short - term, it is advisable to wait and see, and in the long - term, it is still advisable to go long at low prices. Industrial customers can consider selling hedging [1]. Agricultural Products - **Palm Oil**: In the short term, palm oil still faces the dual pressures of seasonal production increase and weak exports. However, starting from November, Malaysia enters the traditional production - reduction cycle. If export data improve significantly, it may trigger a staged rebound [1]. - **Soybean Oil**: According to the China - US negotiation agreement, China will purchase 12 million tons of US soybeans in the next two months, which may bring a loose expectation for soybean oil in the fourth quarter, and the rebound momentum is insufficient. The actual impact needs to be observed [1]. - **Rapeseed Oil**: The meeting between Chinese and Canadian leaders has brought the expectation of Sino - Canadian relaxation, and the bumper harvest of Canadian rapeseed has put pressure on the futures price [1]. - **Cotton**: Although the production capacity in Xinjiang is expanding, the production capacity in the inland may decrease marginally. At the same time, due to the thinning of spinning profits in Xinjiang, the operating rate may also be affected. The contradiction between the expansion of Xinjiang's production capacity and the reduction of spinning profits makes the cotton demand in the new year highly uncertain. The current futures price has fully priced in the selling pressure of new crops, and the downward space is limited, but under the background of a record - high production of new crops, the basis and futures price may continue to be under pressure [1]. - **Sugar**: Typhoons before and after the National Day have had an adverse impact on the sugar - cane harvest and production in South China. There is a seasonal upward impetus for sugar prices in the short term. In the medium - term, considering the good growth of sugar cane this year, the rebound space after the new - sugar listing is expected to be limited [1]. - **Soybeans and Soybean Meal**: The domestic soybean purchase and crushing profit is poor, and the domestic futures price is undervalued. With the expectation of China's purchase of US soybeans, the import cost of US soybeans is expected to rise, and the domestic futures price is expected to rebound in the short term to repair the crushing profit. However, the current loose supply of domestic soybean - meal spot and the expected loose global soybean supply in the long - term limit the rebound height [1]. - **Paper Pulp**: The current trading logic of paper pulp is related to the trading of old warehouse receipts for the November contract. With weak downstream demand, the futures price is under great pressure. It is recommended to conduct a reverse spread between the November and January contracts [1]. - **Log**: The fundamentals of logs have declined, but the spot price is firm. After a sharp decline in the futures price, the risk - return ratio of short - selling is low. It is recommended to wait and see [1]. - **Live Pigs**: In the past half - month, the spot price has risen alternately in the north and south due to secondary fattening, frozen - product storage, and reluctance to sell, which has postponed the production capacity. There is still pressure on the November slaughter. In the short term, the futures price is at the same level as the spot price, and the futures price will follow the spot price to stabilize and then weaken [1]. Energy and Chemicals - **Crude Oil**: OPEC+ plans to continue a small - scale production increase in December, the short - term geopolitical speculation has cooled down, and the suspension of some China - US trade - tariff policies has eased market sentiment [1]. - **Fuel Oil**: Similar to crude oil, the short - term supply - demand contradiction is not prominent, and it follows the trend of crude oil. The demand for the 14th Five - Year Plan construction rush is likely to be falsified, and the supply of Venezuelan crude oil is sufficient. The profit of asphalt is high [1]. - **Natural Rubber**: There is strong support from raw - material costs, the mid - stream inventory is continuously decreasing, and the commodity - market atmosphere is positive [1]. - **BR Rubber**: The decline of crude - oil prices has reduced the cost support of butadiene, and the supply of synthetic rubber is loose. High - production and high - inventory have not suppressed the price, and the mainstream supply price has been continuously reduced [1]. - **PTA**: Gasoline profit and low benzene price support PX. The gasoline cracking price has risen above $15, prompting refineries to increase gasoline production and reduce the feed of aromatic - hydrocarbon units. Overseas device failures and the decline of the operating load of some domestic reforming units, as well as the rotation inspection of large domestic PTA devices, have led to a decline in domestic PTA production [1]. - **Ethylene Glycol**: The decline of crude - oil prices has led to a decline in ethylene - glycol prices, while the rise of coal prices has slightly strengthened the cost support of domestic ethylene glycol. The "Golden September and Silver October" of the polyester industry is coming to an end, and the domestic demand has not significantly declined [1]. - **Short - Fiber**: Gasoline profit and low benzene price support PX. The rebound of PTA prices has strengthened the basis of short - fiber. Short - fiber prices continue to fluctuate closely with costs [1]. - **Styrene**: The Asian benzene price is still weak, the operating rates of STDP and reforming units have declined, the arbitrage window from Northeast Asia to the US is still closed, the profit of domestic styrene has decreased, the number of styrene - device overhauls has gradually increased, and crude - oil prices have continued to fall [1]. - **Urea**: The export sentiment has eased slightly, and the limited domestic demand restricts the upward space. There is support from anti - involution and cost - end factors [1]. - **PE**: Under high - supply, the inventory pressure is large, the intensity of overhauls has weakened, and the downstream demand is slowly increasing, but the peak season is not prosperous [1]. - **PP**: The support from overhauls is limited, and the new - device production has increased the supply pressure. The downstream improvement is less than expected, and the futures price has returned to the fundamentals, showing a weak - oscillating trend [1]. - **PVC**: The overhauls have decreased compared with the previous period, and the new production capacity has been released, increasing the supply pressure. The rise of coal prices has strengthened the cost support of PVC [1]. - **Caustic Soda**: Many alumina projects in Guangxi are planned to be put into production, the subsequent concentration of overhauls will decrease, the high - concentration caustic soda is at a negative premium, the absolute price is low, and the near - month warehouse receipts are limited, so there is a risk of short - squeeze [1]. - **LPG**: The international oil - gas fundamentals are continuously loose, the CP/FEI prices have weakened, the valuation of the domestic LPG futures price has been repaired, and the domestic spot fundamentals are stable due to short - term cooling and chemical rigid demand [1]. Others - **Container Shipping (European Route)**: The positive macro - sentiment has been gradually digested, the expectation of price increases in the peak season has been priced in advance, and the shipping capacity supply in November is relatively loose [1].

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. Core Viewpoints - For crude oil, although the geopolitical premium has disappeared and OPEC's production increase is minimal with supply not yet surging, short - term oil prices should not be overly bearish. Maintain a range strategy of buying low and selling high, but currently wait and see to verify OPEC's export price - support willingness [3]. - For methanol, with rising domestic production and imports, and weakening demand, the pattern of increasing supply and weakening demand leads to high enterprise inventories. The weak reality remains unchanged, and there is a possibility of further downward pressure on the market.

There is limited upward momentum, and the downside space is also restricted. It is advisable to wait and see [7]. - For rubber, the price has rebounded as expected. It is recommended to conduct short - term long trades opportunistically and partially build positions for the hedging strategy of buying RU2601 and selling RU2609 [11]. - For PVC, the fundamentals show a weak situation with high supply, weak demand, and poor export prospects. Although the short - term valuation has declined to a low level, it is still difficult to reverse the situation. Pay attention to short - selling opportunities in the medium term [13]. - For pure benzene and styrene, the prices of both have declined. The BZN spread has room for upward repair. The port inventory of styrene is decreasing, and the price may stop falling temporarily [15][16]. - For polyethylene, the futures price has fallen. The price may bottom out, but the high number of warehouse receipts suppresses the market. The price is expected to remain in a low - level oscillation [18][19]. - For polypropylene, the futures price has declined. With high supply pressure and weak demand, the overall inventory pressure is high. It may be supported when the supply - surplus pattern of the cost side changes in the first quarter of next year [21][22]. - For PX, the load remains high, but downstream PTA has many maintenance activities. PXN is expected to be under pressure in November, and it is recommended to wait and see [24][25]. - For PTA, the supply - side maintenance is expected to increase, and there is a high expectation of inventory reduction in November. However, the processing fee expansion is limited. Pay attention to the opportunity of processing fee repair [26][28]. - For ethylene glycol, the industry fundamentals show high supply, increasing imports, and inventory accumulation. It is recommended to short - sell on rallies [29][30].

Report Summary 1. Investment Ratings - Glass: Oscillating weakly [2] - Soda Ash: Oscillating weakly [2] - Silicomanganese: Oscillating [4] - Ferrosilicon: Oscillating [4] 2. Core Views - The macro - expected situation has been realized, and the market is under short - term pressure. The supply - demand contradictions in glass, soda ash, and double - silicon sectors continue to affect the prices of related products [1][3] 3. Market Analysis and Strategy by Product Glass - **Market Analysis**: The glass futures market dropped significantly yesterday. Downstream procurement is cautious, mainly for刚需. The开工 rate of float glass enterprises this week was 80.63%, unchanged from last week, and the factory inventory was 65.79 million heavy boxes, a 1.24% decrease from last week, showing obvious inventory reduction. However, the supply - demand contradiction is still large, the inventory pressure is still at a historically high level, and the futures - cash merchants are squeezing the market share of glass factories. With the end of the consumption peak season and the potential for some production lines to resume production, the glass price is expected to remain under pressure [1] - **Strategy**: Oscillating weakly [2] Soda Ash - **Market Analysis**: The soda ash futures market showed a weak oscillating trend yesterday. Downstream procurement is mainly for刚需 replenishment. This week, the soda ash production was 757,600 tons, a 2.29% increase from last week, and the inventory was 1.702 million tons, a 0.01% decrease from last week. The supply - demand contradiction remains, with the supply expected to increase further, the刚需 showing resilience, and the speculative demand weakening. The inventory reduction pressure will persist throughout the year [1] - **Strategy**: Oscillating weakly [2] Silicomanganese - **Market Analysis**: The main contract of silicomanganese futures first rose and then fell, closing at 5,842 yuan/ton yesterday. The spot market was stable, and the alloy cost support was fair. The price of 6517 in the northern market was 5,600 - 5,680 yuan/ton, and in the southern market was 5,650 - 5,700 yuan/ton. Although silicomanganese enterprises are facing increasing losses, the production remains high, and the inventory reduction pressure is large. Recently, coking coal has driven the upward movement of the black sector, strengthening the bottom support of silicomanganese. It is expected that the silicomanganese price will continue to fluctuate with the sector [3] - **Strategy**: Oscillating [4] Ferrosilicon - **Market Analysis**: The main contract of ferrosilicon futures tried to rise in the morning but faced pressure and then declined in the afternoon under the influence of the black sector. The spot market sentiment was flat, and most operations were cautious. The cash - inclusive ex - factory price of 72 - grade ferrosilicon in the main production areas was 5,150 - 5,200 yuan/ton, and the price of 75 - grade ferrosilicon was 5,700 - 5,800 yuan/ton. Currently, ferrosilicon enterprises have high production and high inventory, and the demand is expected to weaken. Although enterprises are continuously losing money, it has not effectively curbed production, and the weak fundamental situation is difficult to reverse. It is expected that the short - term ferrosilicon price will follow the sector [3] - **Strategy**: Oscillating [4]
