Report Industry Investment Rating - No investment rating provided in the report Core Viewpoints - For pure benzene, port inventory has slightly declined, but low downstream开工 rates of styrene, CPL, and adipic acid have dragged down demand, leading to a continuously weak port basis. Domestic pure benzene开工 has also decreased, and the impact of previous sanctions on some refinery loads can be resolved by switching crude oil resources [3] - For styrene, despite short - term maintenance, port inventory has not been reduced, and there is still pressure. New device startups such as Jihua and Guangxi Petrochemical have had an impact. Downstream开工 has changed little, but提货 is average, and the finished product inventory pressure of the three major hard rubbers is still high, so the port inventory pressure of EB persists [3] Summary by Directory I. Pure Benzene and EB's Basis Structure, Inter - period Spread - The report mentions figures related to the basis of pure benzene and EB, including the basis of pure benzene futures contracts, the spread between pure benzene spot and M2 paper goods, and the spread between consecutive contracts of pure benzene and EB [8][11][16] II.

Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content Core Viewpoints - The methanol market is expected to show a short - term oscillating pattern, with the medium - term price center still moving down. The upper pressure mainly comes from the supply side of the fundamentals, while the lower side is supported by port logistics contradictions [3][4] Summary by Relevant Catalogs Fundamental Tracking - In the futures market, on October 30, 2025, the closing price of the methanol main contract (01 contract) was 2,257 yuan/ton, up from 2,241 yuan/ton the previous day; the settlement price was 2,245 yuan/ton, down from 2,252 yuan/ton the previous day; the trading volume was 585,629 lots, down from 685,035 lots the previous day; the open interest was 1,197,415 lots, down from 1,221,292 lots the previous day; the number of warehouse receipts was 12,122 tons, down from 13,872 tons the previous day; the trading volume was 1,314,936 ten - thousand yuan, down from 1,542,841 ten - thousand yuan the previous day. The basis was - 47, down from - 34 the previous day, and the MA01 - MA05 spread was - 64, down from - 62 the previous day [1] - In the spot market, on October 30, 2025, the Inner Mongolia price was 1,990 yuan/ton, unchanged from the previous day; the northern Shaanxi price was 1,980 yuan/ton, unchanged from the previous day; the Shandong price was 2,170 yuan/ton, unchanged from the previous day [1] Spot News - The methanol spot price index was 2102.10, down 0.18. The Taicang spot price was 2210, up 3, and the Inner Mongolia northern line price was 2010, unchanged. Among the 20 large and medium - sized cities monitored by Longzhong, 10 cities saw varying degrees of price increases, with increases ranging from 3 to 10 yuan/ton. The domestic methanol market showed regional narrow - range adjustments. The futures market rebounded slightly after hitting a new low in the night session, and the port market followed slightly, but the overall atmosphere was still average. The atmosphere in the main inland areas improved slightly. After the olefin procurement in the production areas was released, and most upstream enterprises' inventories were still controllable, most trade resales showed small increases, and some low - end transactions were acceptable; some areas in North China weakened slightly [3] - As of October 29, 2025, the total methanol port inventory in China was 150.65 million tons, a decrease of 0.57 million tons from the previous period. Among them, the inventory in East China decreased by 2.97 million tons, and the inventory in South China increased by 2.40 million tons [3] Market Outlook - The methanol fundamentals are under great pressure, but the valuation is moderately low. With many important macro - events recently, the short - term price is expected to oscillate, and the medium - term price center will still move down. The upper pressure mainly comes from the supply side of the fundamentals, and the lower side is supported by port logistics contradictions. The 01 contract's downside space is gradually narrowing as the premium decreases. Macro - events such as the Fourth Plenary Session, the "15th Five - Year Plan", and Sino - US trade consultations need to be closely monitored, as well as the Sino - US ship issue [3][4]

Report Industry Investment Ratings No relevant content provided. Core Views Glass and Soda Ash - The overall sentiment of the commodity market has strengthened, and the disk has rebounded recently. However, fundamentally, the weekly production is at a high level, and there is an obvious surplus compared to the current rigid demand. The inventory of manufacturers has been transferred to the middle and lower reaches, and the trade inventory has continued to rise. In the medium term, there is no expectation of a significant increase in downstream production capacity, so the overall demand for soda ash will continue the previous rigid demand pattern. If there is no actual production capacity exit or load reduction in the future, the supply and demand will be further pressured. It is recommended to track macro fluctuations and the load adjustment of soda ash plants. The overall supply and demand pattern is still bearish, but the previous phased negative factors have basically been exhausted. It is recommended to close out the previous short positions, wait and see in the short term, and wait for the opportunity to short on the rebound [1]. - Recently, the production and sales have significantly warmed up, and the disk has stabilized and rebounded. After multiple price cuts, the middle and lower reaches have begun to replenish their inventories one after another, and the spot-futures traders have been actively purchasing. Due to the weakening of the basis, some spot-futures traders have no quotes. It is necessary to pay attention to the continuous performance of the spot market. Returning to the industry's supply and demand, although the deep-processing orders have improved seasonally, they are still weak, and the low-e glass开工率 has continued to be low, showing no obvious characteristics of the peak season. In the long term, the real estate cycle is at the bottom, and the completion volume is shrinking. Eventually, the industry needs to clear the excess production capacity. It has been suggested to close out the previous short positions and pay attention to the spot market to capture short-term long opportunities [1]. Logs - The price of log futures contract 2601 is at a relatively low level. The obvious inversion of domestic and foreign prices has formed a certain support for the import cost, limiting the downward space of the disk. However, there is an expectation of weakening fundamentals in the future. On the one hand, the import volume to the port will increase seasonally in the fourth quarter, and the supply pressure will gradually emerge. On the other hand, the effect of the national subsidy policy has faded, and the furniture demand has weakened, resulting in insufficient support from the terminal demand and an increased risk of inventory accumulation at the port. Under the pattern of weak supply and demand, the market's pessimistic expectation dominates. Overall, the log futures disk is expected to continue to fluctuate weakly. It is necessary to pay attention to the impact of the follow-up progress of the China-US economic and trade consultations on the import cost expectation and the changes in the spot price [3]. Natural Rubber - On the supply side, there has been a lot of rain in the producing areas until the end of the month, and the raw material prices have continued to rise. In the short term, the cost side strongly supports the rubber price. In the long term, there is still an expectation of increased supply. It is necessary to pay attention to the future weather conditions. On the demand side, most semi-steel tire enterprises have maintained stable production schedules. Currently, there are concentrated orders for snow tires with various specifications and models. To ensure the normal supply of each product, the production enthusiasm of semi-steel tire enterprises remains high. For all-steel tires, the enterprises' shipment performance has been stable, and the inventory of some enterprises has increased. There are plans to boost sales at the end of the month, and most enterprises are likely to maintain stable production schedules, with a slight fluctuation in the overall capacity utilization rate. In summary, the Federal Reserve's hawkish stance on the prospect of a December interest rate cut may put short-term pressure on the rubber price. It is necessary to pay attention to the raw material output in the peak production season of the main producing areas and the macro changes. If the raw material supply is smooth, there is further downward space for the rubber price. If the raw material supply is not smooth, the rubber price is expected to fluctuate between 15,000 and 15,500 [5]. Polysilicon - The spot price of polysilicon has slightly decreased by 630 yuan/ton, a decline of about 1.2%. The futures price has risen driven by positive news such as the expected establishment of a platform company, but then declined with a reduction in positions. This may be because the arbitrage window opened after the price increase, leading some long positions to close out. The futures price closed at 54,990 yuan/ton, up 635 yuan/ton. It was reported that on October 28, 2025, Mr. Zhu Gongshan of GCL Group revealed in the CCTV program "Economic Half - Hour" that 17 major industry enterprises basically agreed to sign an agreement to form a consortium, which is beneficial for price increases. On the supply side, as the production capacity in the southwest region is gradually shut down, the output in November is expected to drop to about 120,000 tons. On the demand side, the silicon wafer production schedule has increased, and the supply pressure has decreased, but the downstream procurement has decreased, resulting in an increase in inventory. It should be noted that the silicon wafer price has slightly decreased, and the sustainability of the polysilicon price increase needs to be monitored. Currently, polysilicon is mainly oscillating at a high level. On the one hand, it is necessary to pay attention to the establishment of the platform company and the production control situation. On the other hand, it is necessary to pay attention to whether there is an increase in orders on the demand side to support the increase in supply. After the significant increase in the futures price, the futures price is at a premium to the spot average price. For further significant increases, it is necessary to pay attention to the hedging space of upstream enterprises. It is also necessary to pay attention to whether there will be further implementation measures or policies [7]. Industrial Silicon - The spot price of industrial silicon has stabilized, and the futures price has risen driven by the news of anti - involution, closing at 9,170 yuan/ton, up 215 yuan/ton. From the perspective of supply and demand, the weekly supply - side output has increased, while the demand - side output has decreased, which may lead to inventory accumulation and put pressure on the price. When the spot price is under pressure, it is necessary to note that the opening of the arbitrage window in East China may bring hedging opportunities. The coking coal price has risen under positive news such as supply contraction, and its impact on the industrial silicon futures price needs to be noted. Currently, it is still maintained that the increase in industrial silicon supply puts pressure on the price, but there is also cost support at the bottom. It is expected to mainly oscillate at a low level, with the main price fluctuation range between 8,500 and 9,500 [8].

Group 1: Report Title and General Information - Report title: "Meal Daily Report - October 29, 2025" [1] - Report summary: Supply bullish factors are fully reflected, and the overall upward movement of the market is restricted [1] Group 2: Market Quotes Futures and Spot Basis - **Soybean meal**: The closing prices of contracts 01, 05, and 09 are 2969, 2803, and 2923 respectively, with changes of -6, +8, and +11. Spot basis varies by region, such as 50 in Tianjin, -20 in Dongguan, etc. [3] - **Rapeseed meal**: The closing prices of contracts 01, 05, and 09 are 2373, 2330, and 2426 respectively, with changes of -23, -8, and -7. Spot basis also varies by region, like 37 in Nantong, 127 in Guangdong, etc. [3] Monthly Spreads - **Soybean meal**: The 15 - spread is 166 (down 14 from yesterday), the 59 - spread is -120 (down 3), and the 91 - spread is -46 (up 17). [3] - **Rapeseed meal**: The 15 - spread is 43 (down 15 from yesterday), the 59 - spread is -96 (down 1), and the 91 - spread is 53 (up 16). [3] Cross - Variety Futures Spreads - The 01 spread between soybean meal and rapeseed meal is 596 (up from 579 yesterday), and the 09 spread is 497 (up from 479 yesterday). The 01 oil - meal ratio is 2.739 (down from 2.750 yesterday). [3] Spot Spreads - The spread between soybean meal and rapeseed meal is 473 (up 1 from yesterday), the spread between rapeseed meal and sunflower meal is 270 (down 10), and the spread between soybean meal and sunflower meal is 673 (up 21). [3] Group 3: Fundamental Analysis International Market - **US soybeans**: Although the recent trend is strong, the overall fundamental changes are limited. The market generally expects a slight downward adjustment in the new - crop yield per unit, which supports the price to some extent. The current price reflects the positive impact of US soybean exports, but the upward space is limited without other positive factors. [4] - **South America**: In Brazil, the new - crop sowing has started and is progressing rapidly. Institutions generally expect a bumper harvest. With limited demand growth, the export volume is expected to increase significantly. The old - crop has good export and crushing performance, but the subsequent crushing drive may be limited. In Argentina, the old - crop soybean production is relatively large, and the recent crushing and export have increased significantly, with the pressure improving. [4] Domestic Market - **Soybean meal**: The overall supply and demand are relatively loose. The oil mill operating rate has increased, the supply is sufficient, and the提货 volume has also increased, while the inventory remains high. As of October 24, the actual soybean crushing volume of oil mills is 2.3674 million tons, the operating rate is 65.13%, the soybean inventory is 7.5129 million tons (down 174,100 tons from last week, a decrease of 2.26%, and up 1.9282 million tons year - on - year, an increase of 34.53%), and the soybean meal inventory is 1.0546 million tons (up 78,400 tons from last week, an increase of 8.03%, and up 1,800 tons year - on - year, an increase of 0.17%). [5] - **Rapeseed meal**: The domestic demand has gradually weakened recently. The oil mill operating rate has decreased, the rapeseed supply is relatively low, and the granular rapeseed meal inventory remains high, with overall supply pressure. As of the week of October 24, the rapeseed inventory of major coastal oil mills is 600,000 tons (unchanged from last week), and the rapeseed meal inventory is 710,000 tons (down 70,000 tons from last week). [5] Group 4: Macro - analysis - Recent market is more affected by macro factors. The Sino - US negotiations have released positive signals, leading to a significant increase in the US soybean market. The meeting involves issues such as 301 shipping fees and possible tariff issues for agricultural products. However, the impact on the domestic long - term supply reduction is limited, and the subsequent import volume is still highly uncertain. After the short - term market reaction, the macro impact is expected to be relatively limited, and the market will focus more on fundamental changes. [6] Group 5: Logic Analysis - The market shows a volatile trend. After the previous bullish factors are fully reflected, the upward momentum has decreased. The US soybean market has fully reflected the previous bullish factors and is now in a volatile state. The overall supply in the international soybean market is still relatively loose. The smooth progress of Brazil's new - crop sowing is expected to result in a relatively high yield, with limited price support and obvious overall pressure. The domestic soybean meal supply and demand are relatively loose, and there is still inventory pressure. The rapeseed meal inventory is relatively low, but the demand is also average, and the subsequent import volume is relatively low, with limited price fluctuations. The decline in the monthly spreads of soybean meal and rapeseed meal today is mainly due to macro factors, and the subsequent decline space is expected to be limited, but there may still be pressure for rapeseed meal monthly spreads due to average demand. [7] Group 6: Trading Strategies - **Single - side trading**: It is recommended to short the 05 contract [8] - **Arbitrage**: Hold a wait - and - see attitude [8] - **Options**: Sell a wide - straddle strategy [8] Group 7: Soybean Pressing Profits - Pressing profits vary by origin, shipping date, and contract. For example, for Brazilian soybeans with a December shipping date, the CNF is 243, the CBOT is 999.25, and the contract is F. The exchange rate is 7.0228, the soybean meal price is 2969, the soybean oil price is 8132. The disk pressing profit is -190.08, the spot pressing profit is -211.58, compared with yesterday's -212.23 and -233.73, with a change of 22.15. [9]

Report Information - Report Title: "Oils and Fats and Oilseeds Industry Daily Report" [1] - Report Date: October 29, 2025 [1] - Author: Xu Liang [2] - Reviewer: Tang Yun [2] Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the report Core Views Oils Palm Oil - International Market: Malaysian BMD crude palm oil futures have been on a continuous downward trend. Due to concerns about increased production and slower exports, the futures price has broken below the annual - line support of 4,350 ringgit. There is still pressure for an inertial decline, and it may fall further under the potential negative impact of rising month - end inventories. It is expected to test the support around 4,200 ringgit. After the release of the MPOB supply - demand report next month and with the support of the production slowdown season starting in November, Malaysian palm oil may gradually stop falling, stabilize, and rebound [3]. - Domestic Market: Dalian palm oil futures have been dragged down by the Malaysian palm oil trend and have fallen significantly. After breaking below the annual - line support, there is pressure for further weakness. It may stop falling or stage a short - term oversold rebound around 8,800 yuan; otherwise, it may fall to 8,600 yuan. Given the increasing port inventories, the decline of Malaysian palm oil, and weakening demand due to lower temperatures, a short - term bearish view is maintained. Attention should be paid to whether it can follow the Malaysian palm oil trend and stop falling and stabilize in the first and middle of next month [3]. Soybean Oil - Currently, the domestic soybean oil supply is sufficient while demand is weak, presenting a bearish fundamental situation. CBOT soybean oil and BMD palm oil may continue to fall, dragging down Dalian soybean oil. The market is closely watching the Sino - US trade negotiations. If the negotiation results lead to a breakthrough rise in CBOT soybeans, Dalian soybean oil may quickly rebound; otherwise, if CBOT soybeans fall again, the January contract of Dalian soybean oil may break below the integer - level support [3]. Oilseeds Soybean Meal - News of COFCO's purchase of 180,000 tons of US soybeans this week has led to a mixed sentiment among the long and short sides. The market is trading cautiously, waiting for the final result and specific details of the Sino - US trade agreement. The short - term main contract of Dalian soybean meal may consolidate in the range of 2,950 - 2,980 yuan. In the spot market, most of the oil mills' fixed - price offers remain stable, with some decreasing by 10 yuan/ton, and the near - month basis remains stable. The pattern of weak oils and strong meals continues, and the improvement of oil mills' crushing profits is limited. The small - scale arrival of Argentine soybean meal has little impact on the market. The rebound of pig prices has stimulated some breeding enterprises to enter the secondary fattening market. Feed mills are generally waiting due to safety inventories, and traders have limited motivation to chase the rising prices due to a small number of low - price contracts. Both are waiting for the clarity of the Sino - US negotiations [14].
