Report Information - Report Name: Polyolefin Daily Report [1] - Date: June 11, 2025 [2] Industry Investment Rating - No relevant information provided Core Viewpoints - The upstream device maintenance losses remain at a high level, but the planned maintenance volume after June is expected to decline month-on-month, and the supply reduction support from maintenance will weaken. Coupled with new capacity expansion plans, supply-side pressure will resurface. Demand is under double pressure from seasonal decline and unclear tariff policy expectations. Although the cost side is supported by the peak fuel consumption season in the United States, the supply-demand contradiction of polyolefins still exists, and the rebound space is limited [6] Summary by Directory 1. Market Review and Outlook - Futures market: The opening, closing, highest, lowest prices, price changes, price change rates, trading volumes, and open interest changes of polyolefin futures contracts such as plastic 2601, plastic 2605, plastic 2509, PP2601, PP2605, and PP2509 are presented. For example, plastic 2601 opened at 7067 yuan/ton, closed at 7078 yuan/ton, with a price increase of 30 yuan and a price change rate of 0.43%. [5] - Market performance: L2509 opened higher, fluctuated upward during the session, and closed higher at 7106 yuan/ton, up 27 yuan/ton (0.38%). PP continued to oscillate within the range, with the main contract closing at 6941 yuan/ton, up 6 yuan, a 0.09% increase. The warming of linear and PP futures boosted the market atmosphere. Traders raised prices following the market, and end-users made moderate replenishments [6] 2. Industry News - Inventory: On June 10, 2025, the inventory level of major producers was 855,000 tons, a decrease of 15,000 tons from the previous working day, a decline of 1.72%. The inventory in the same period last year was 835,000 tons [7] - Price: The PP market price rose slightly. The mainstream price of North China wire drawing was 6950 - 7120 yuan/ton, that of East China was 7000 - 7180 yuan/ton, and that of South China was 7060 - 7220 yuan/ton. The PE market price partially increased. In North China, some linear prices rose by 10 - 50 yuan/ton, some high-pressure prices rose by 50 yuan/ton, and low-pressure prices fluctuated by 20 - 50 yuan/ton. Similar price changes were also seen in East and South China [7] 3. Data Overview - The report presents multiple data charts, including L basis, PP basis, L - PP spread, crude oil futures main contract settlement price, two - oil inventory, and two - oil inventory year - on - year change rate, with data sources from Wind and Zhuochuang Information [9][14][16]

Report Industry Investment Rating - The report does not explicitly provide an overall industry investment rating but gives individual ratings for various products: steel, iron ore, scrap steel, coke, coking coal, glass, soda ash, ferrosilicon, and silicomanganese are rated as "oscillating"; glass and soda ash are also rated as "oscillating weakly" [7][11]. Core Viewpoints - Amid frequent macro - disturbances, the prices of the black series are oscillating near the cost support level. With the approaching off - season, the demand for building materials remains weak, and the demand for industrial materials is under pressure to decline from high levels. Although some electric furnaces and blast furnaces are in the red, the overall profitability of steel mills is stable, and the conditions for negative feedback are not yet mature. The prices are testing for an upward movement near the support level, waiting for favorable factors, but the upward pressure is still strong [1][2]. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Iron Element - Overseas mines are ramping up shipments at the end of the fiscal year and quarter, with an expected seasonal increase in shipments, which will remain high until early July. On the demand side, the profitability of steel enterprises is stable, and hot metal production is slightly decreasing but expected to remain high in the short term. Under the tight supply - demand balance, the short - term inventory accumulation pressure is small. At the end of the month, with the arrival of ores shipped during the peak period, the port may see a slight inventory increase, but the overall supply - demand contradiction is not prominent. The short - term fundamentals are healthy, and the iron ore price is expected to oscillate [2][7]. Carbon Element - **Coking Coal**: Recently, the output of some coal mines has slightly declined due to factors such as changing working faces, inventory pressure, and safety, but most coal mines in the production areas are operating normally, and the coking coal output is still at a relatively high level. The actual transactions of Mongolian coal are limited, and the port inventory continues to accumulate, so the overall supply of coking coal is still loose. On the demand side, the coke output is showing signs of decline, and the coking enterprises' inventory pressure is increasing, and the coking profit is shrinking. During the price cut cycle, the coking enterprises' enthusiasm for replenishing raw material inventory decreases, and the upstream inventory pressure of coking coal intensifies. The supply contraction of coking coal is limited, and the upstream inventory pressure continues to increase, so there is no driving force for a trend - like price increase [3]. - **Coke**: The third round of price cuts by steel mills has been implemented, with a reduction of 70 - 75 yuan/ton this time, and there is an expectation of further price cuts. On the supply side, the output of some coking enterprises has slightly declined due to environmental protection and maintenance, but the overall coke output remains stable. The downstream steel mills' enthusiasm for replenishing inventory is weak, and the coking enterprises' coke inventory continues to accumulate. On the demand side, the hot metal production is declining from a high level, and the terminal steel demand is entering the off - season, with an expectation of further decline in hot metal production. The upstream supply reduction is limited, the demand support is gradually weakening, and there is still room for the coke price to fall under the drag of cost [8][9]. Alloys - **Silicomanganese**: On the cost side, the market is cautiously waiting, and the manganese ore price still shows signs of loosening. On the supply side, the production cost has been slightly repaired due to the abundant water period in Yunnan and the electricity price discount in Guangxi, and the supply in Ningxia, Inner Mongolia, and Yunnan has slightly increased, but the manufacturers in Ningxia are still in the red, and their willingness to sell is limited. On the demand side, with the arrival of the off - season in the black market, the market sentiment is still cautious, and the downstream has a strong mentality of bargaining. The supply - demand of silicomanganese tends to be loose, and the manganese ore price is still expected to loosen. However, due to the cost - price inversion, the manufacturers' willingness to sell is low, and the futures market is expected to oscillate in the short term [5]. - **Ferrosilicon**: The supply has slightly increased. As the terminal steel use is about to enter the off - season, the downstream has a strong willingness to actively reduce inventory, the market sentiment remains cautious, and the cost may still be a drag. The future market should focus on steel procurement and production conditions, and the futures market is expected to be under pressure and oscillate in the short term [5]. Glass and Soda Ash - **Glass**: In the off - season, the demand is declining, the deep - processing demand is still weak year - on - year, and the spot price is falling. On the supply side, there are expectations of both cold repair and ignition, and there are still 6 production lines waiting to produce glass, so the supply pressure still exists. The upstream inventory has increased significantly, the mid - stream inventory has decreased, and there are rumors disturbing the supply side, but the actual impact is limited. The coal price is also expected to loosen, and the sentiment fluctuates repeatedly. The futures price is at a discount to the spot price, but the price cut of Hubei spot has led the futures price down. The short - term view is oscillating weakly [5][11]. - **Soda Ash**: The pattern of oversupply remains unchanged, the maintenance is gradually resuming. In the short term, it is expected to oscillate weakly, and in the long run, the price center will continue to decline [5][11]. Other Products - **Steel**: The demand for the five major steel products has weakened this week, with a significant decline in rebar demand. The hot metal production is at a high level, and the steel output has not decreased much, but the hot metal production may have reached its peak. The overall supply - demand fundamentals have weakened this week, but the inventory is still decreasing. The price of the steel futures market is mainly suppressed by the falling raw material prices and the pessimistic expectation of domestic demand. With the resumption of Sino - US negotiations, the macro - fluctuations are magnified, and the steel price is expected to oscillate in the short term [7]. - **Scrap Steel**: The scrap steel resources are tight, but the market is pessimistic about the off - season demand. The price of finished products is under pressure, and the loss of electric furnaces during off - peak hours has intensified. It is expected that the future price will oscillate following the finished products [7].

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content 2. Core View of the Report - Linear futures opened lower and fluctuated, closing higher at the end of the session. PP fluctuated within a range. The spot market had a cautious trading atmosphere, with some factory prices adjusted and low terminal restocking willingness. The supply - side pressure will increase due to the decline in planned maintenance after June and new capacity expansion plans, while demand is pressured by seasonal weakness and tariff transmission. Although the cost side is supported by the US fuel consumption peak season, the rebound space of polyolefins is limited due to existing supply - demand contradictions [6] 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Market Review and Outlook - Linear futures (L09) closed at 7078 yuan/ton, up 6 yuan/ton (0.08%), with a trading volume of 25 lots and an increase in open interest by 1429 to 545370 lots. PP closed at 6932 yuan/ton, up 6 yuan (0.09%), with open interest decreasing by 1541 to 516,300 lots. The spot market was cautious, with some factory prices adjusted and low terminal restocking enthusiasm. The supply - side pressure will increase after June due to reduced planned maintenance and new capacity expansion, and demand is affected by seasonality and tariffs. The cost side has some support, but the rebound space of polyolefins is limited [5][6] 3.2 Industry News - On June 9, 2025, the inventory level of major producers was 870,000 tons, a 40,000 - ton increase (4.82%) from the previous working day, compared with 855,000 tons in the same period last year. PP market prices were generally stable with minor fluctuations, and PE market prices showed mixed trends in different regions [7] 3.3 Data Overview - The report presents multiple data charts, including L basis, PP basis, L - PP spread, crude oil futures settlement price, two - oil inventory, and two - oil inventory year - on - year increase/decrease rate, with data sources from Wind and Zhuochuang Information [9][14][16]

Report Summary 1. Investment Rating No investment rating for the industry is provided in the report. 2. Core View The report anticipates that ethylene glycol will continue its low - level oscillation pattern.

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - The steel price is mainly driven by raw materials, and although it is boosted by the short - term rebound of coking coal, there is limited room for a substantial increase in coking coal due to the overall supply - demand imbalance in the raw material market and the approaching traditional off - season [3]. - The iron ore price is expected to rebound along with industrial products, but the rebound amplitude is smaller than that of coking coal, and the trend may not be strong, with decreasing volatility [21]. - Coking coal has a short - term rebound demand, but the supply - demand pattern remains loose. Coke has limited short - term supply - demand contradictions, but lacks the conditions for bottom - fishing [3][36]. - The negative impact of high inventory on ferroalloys is weakening, but the cost side is bearish. It is not recommended to bottom - fish before coal prices stabilize [54]. - The soda ash market is in a long - term oversupply expectation, and the inventory is at a historical high. The further decline of the disc price requires price cuts by alkali plants or rapid inventory accumulation [69][70]. - The glass market has weak short - term fundamentals and cost support. Although the valuation is relatively low, it is necessary to wait for the realization of spot price cut expectations [94]. Summary by Related Catalogs Steel - **Price Influencing Factors**: The price of steel is mainly affected by raw materials. The short - term rebound of coking coal boosts steel prices, but in the traditional off - season with a tendency of decreasing hot metal and an overall oversupply of raw materials, coking coal lacks a substantial upward driving force [3]. - **Price Data**: On June 5, 2025, the closing prices of rebar 01, 05, and 10 contracts were 2951, 2952, and 2959 respectively, showing different changes compared with the previous day. The closing prices of hot - rolled coil 01, 05, and 10 contracts were 3075, 3072, and 3077 respectively [4]. Iron Ore - **Market Situation**: Market sentiment has slightly recovered. The fundamentals of iron ore have weakened month - on - month, with increased shipments and a possible shift from de - stocking to slight inventory accumulation. The iron ore price is expected to rebound with industrial products, but the amplitude is smaller than that of coking coal [21]. - **Price and Fundamental Data**: On June 5, 2025, the closing prices of iron ore 01, 05, and 09 contracts were 665, 646.5, and 701 respectively. The daily average hot metal output in the week of May 30, 2025, was 241.91, showing a week - on - week decrease [22][30]. Coking Coal and Coke - **Coking Coal**: Some mines have reduced production, but large - scale production cuts have not occurred. The downstream coking profit is damaged, and the raw material replenishment willingness is poor. The import window is expected to be difficult to open, and the price of Mongolian 5 raw coal has been frequently declining [36]. - **Coke**: Steel mills in Tangshan have initiated a third - round price cut. The short - term supply - demand contradiction of coke is not significant, but the cost support is loose, and it is not suitable for bottom - fishing [36]. - **Price Data**: On June 5, 2025, the coking coal warehouse receipt cost (Tangshan Mongolian 5) was 813, and the coking coal main contract basis (Tangshan Mongolian 5) was 56. The coke warehouse receipt cost (Rizhao Port) was 1315, and the coke main contract basis (Rizhao Port) was - 27 [37]. Ferroalloys - **Market Situation**: The negative impact of high inventory on ferroalloys is gradually weakening, and the supply pressure on the supply side is small. However, the cost side is bearish, and it is not recommended to bottom - fish before coal prices stabilize [54]. - **Price Data**: On June 5, 2025, the silicon - iron basis in Ningxia was 284, and the silicon - manganese basis in Inner Mongolia was 268 [58][59]. Soda Ash - **Market Situation**: The soda ash production has recovered, and the overall maintenance volume from May to June is lower than expected. The market is in a long - term oversupply expectation, and the inventory is at a historical high. The demand is stable, and the photovoltaic sector tends to return to an oversupply pattern [69][70]. - **Price Data**: On June 5, 2025, the prices of soda ash 05, 09, and 01 contracts were 1236, 1203, and 1196 respectively, showing different degrees of decline compared with the previous day [71]. Glass - **Market Situation**: The spot market of glass remains weak, and there is still an expectation of price cuts. The daily melting volume fluctuates slightly. The cumulative apparent demand has declined by nearly 10%. The disc price is approaching the level of full - industry chain losses, and it is necessary to wait for the realization of spot price cut expectations [94]. - **Price Data**: On June 5, 2025, the prices of glass 05, 09, and 01 contracts were 1075, 963, and 1018 respectively, showing different degrees of decline compared with the previous day [95].

Report Industry Investment Rating - Steel: Oscillating [6] - Iron Ore: Oscillating [6] - Scrap Steel: Oscillating [7] - Coke: Oscillating Weakly [7] - Coking Coal: Oscillating Weakly [10] - Glass: Oscillating Weakly [11] - Soda Ash: Oscillating Weakly [11] - Ferrosilicon Manganese: Oscillating [13] - Ferrosilicon: Oscillating [14] Core Viewpoints of the Report - During the Dragon Boat Festival, the macro - sentiment was weak, and the US further imposed tariffs on steel and aluminum, causing the prices of black building materials to decline. However, the actual impact of tariffs was limited, and there were rumors of Mongolia increasing resource taxes, leading to a price rebound at night. The domestic demand is seasonally weak, and the manufacturing's rush for exports is less than expected. Although some electric furnaces and blast furnaces are in the red, the overall profitability provides cost support. Low valuations drive price rebounds, but the upside is limited [1][2]. - In terms of iron elements, the overseas supply increase is lower than expected, and the annual cumulative shipment is down year - on - year. The new projects' progress is slow, and the annual increase is revised down. Steel enterprises' profitability and orders are good, and the molten iron output is expected to remain high. Before September, the inventory accumulation pressure is small, and the supply - demand contradiction is not prominent [2]. - For carbon elements, the coking coal production remains high, and the Mongolian coal port clearance is also at a high level, resulting in a loose supply. The coke production is at a high level, but coke enterprises face inventory reduction pressure, and the coking profit is shrinking. The coking coal inventory pressure upstream is increasing, and it's difficult to find price support [2]. - Regarding alloys, the arrival of South32 Australian ore at the port increases the pressure on oxidized ore spot. The ban on manganese ore exports by Gabon has no obvious impact on the domestic market. With the recovery of manganese ore shipments, the port inventory is rising, and the cost drag persists. The ferrosilicon supply increases slightly, and the downstream is eager to reduce inventory. The glass demand decline in the off - season is not obvious, and the supply - side news can cause market fluctuations. The soda ash supply surplus pattern remains unchanged [3]. Summary by Related Catalogs Iron Ore - Core Logic: The overseas supply increase is lower than expected, and the annual cumulative shipment is down year - on - year. New projects' progress is slow, and the annual increase is revised down. Steel enterprises' profitability and orders are good, and the molten iron output is expected to remain high, so the annual molten iron output is expected to be higher than last year. Before September, the inventory accumulation pressure is small, and the supply - demand contradiction is not prominent. The black sector rebounded last night, and iron ore also rose slightly [2][6]. - Outlook: The US tariff policy has limited actual negative impact on iron ore, but may cause pessimistic sentiment. Considering the uncertain policies, the tight supply - demand balance, and the fact that the price has factored in many negative factors, the room for further significant decline is limited [6]. Steel - Core Logic: The domestic policy is in a vacuum, and there are still tariff risks. The demand for the five major steel products rebounded this week, but the domestic demand outlook is weak. The molten iron output is high, and the steel production has increased. Although the supply - demand fundamentals improved this week and the inventory decreased, the falling raw material prices and pessimistic demand expectations suppress the price [6]. - Outlook: The fundamentals improved this week, but the outlook is still pessimistic, and the raw material prices are weakening. The steel price is expected to oscillate in the short term [6]. Scrap Steel - Core Logic: The post - holiday scrap steel arrival was low, and the loss during off - peak electricity hours increased. The apparent demand for rebar rebounded slightly, and the total inventory decreased slightly. The supply was tight after the holiday, and the demand from electric furnaces and blast furnaces was affected. The inventory increased slightly [7]. - Outlook: The market is pessimistic about the off - season demand, the finished product price is under pressure, and the electric furnace loss is increasing. The price is expected to oscillate weakly [7]. Coke - Core Logic: The second round of coke price cuts was implemented, and the market is pessimistic. The supply is stable, but the demand is weakening as the molten iron output declines and the off - season approaches [7][9]. - Outlook: The falling coking coal price weakens the cost support, and the demand is weakening. The price is expected to remain weak in the short term [9]. Coking Coal - Core Logic: The market trading atmosphere is weak, and coal mines face shipment pressure. The supply is still loose as the production remains high and the Mongolian coal port clearance is high. The coke production is high, but coke enterprises face inventory reduction pressure, and the coking profit is shrinking. The upstream inventory pressure is increasing [10]. - Outlook: The market is pessimistic, the supply - demand is loose, and the high inventory suppresses the price. The price is expected to remain weak [10]. Glass - Core Logic: The off - season demand decline is not obvious, and the deep - processing demand improved month - on - month but is still weak year - on - year. There was cold - repair and复产, and the supply pressure remains. The inventory decreased slightly, and the market is sensitive to supply - side news [3][11]. - Outlook: The real - world demand faces pressure in the off - season. The price is expected to oscillate weakly in the short term, and attention should be paid to the price cuts in Hubei [11]. Soda Ash - Core Logic: The supply surplus pattern remains unchanged. The supply pressure persists as some enterprises' production has recovered. The demand for heavy alkali is for rigid needs, and the increase in float glass daily melting is uncertain. The short - term inventory decreased due to maintenance, but the long - term surplus remains [11]. - Outlook: The supply surplus remains, and the price is expected to oscillate weakly in the short term and decline in the long term [11]. Ferrosilicon Manganese - Core Logic: The ferrosilicon manganese price was weak. The cost pressure is high as the market is bearish on raw materials, and the South32 Australian ore is arriving at the port. The supply is increasing, and the demand is weak as the black market enters the off - season [13]. - Outlook: The supply is expected to increase, and the demand is weakening. The price is expected to continue to decline as the manganese ore inventory rises and the coke price is falling [13]. Ferrosilicon - Core Logic: The ferrosilicon price was weak. The supply increased slightly as some furnaces were restarted. The demand is weak as the steel market enters the off - season and the metal magnesium market is sluggish [14]. - Outlook: The supply and demand are both weak, and the demand may weaken further. The price is expected to oscillate under pressure in the short term, and attention should be paid to steel procurement and production [14].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The supply pressure of asphalt is expected to decrease as refineries have recently reduced production. The overall demand is lower than the historical average, and the recovery is weak. The inventory is continuously decreasing, and the cost support is strengthening in the short - term due to the rising crude oil prices. It is expected that the asphalt 2509 contract will fluctuate narrowly in the range of 3455 - 3509 [8][9]. - The bullish factors include relatively high crude oil costs providing some support, while the bearish factors are the insufficient demand for high - priced goods and the overall downward demand with an increasing expectation of an economic recession in Europe and the United States [11][12]. - The main logic is that the supply pressure remains high, and the demand recovery is weak [13]. 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Ratings No information about industry investment ratings is provided in the content. 2. Core Views of the Report Crude Oil - International crude oil futures prices have been rising, supported by a weakening US dollar and geopolitical risks. The supply - side OPEC+ production increase has alleviated concerns, but trade frictions suppress demand. After the holiday, the short - term trend depends on the US dollar, geopolitical situation, and supply - demand re - balancing. Unilateral trading can be in a slightly bullish direction, with WTI in the range of [59, 69], Brent [61, 71], and SC [440, 500]. Pay attention to the rebound opportunity of INE spreads and consider buying a straddle option to capture post - holiday volatility [8]. Styrene - In June, the supply - demand of styrene is expected to gradually become looser, and the price remains under pressure. However, due to tight spot circulation, the near - end price may fluctuate. It is advisable to take a short - selling approach [2]. Chlor - Alkali - For caustic soda, short - term spot prices remain strong. Before the fundamentals significantly weaken or warehouse receipts flow out, consider expanding the spread between the near - month and September contracts. For PVC, in the long - term, supply - demand contradictions are prominent. In June, supply pressure is expected to increase, and demand is weak. It is recommended to take a short - selling approach, with an operating range of 4500 - 5000, while also paying attention to macro - level disturbances [30][40]. Urea - The core contradiction of urea lies in high supply and weak demand expectations. Currently, supply is abundant, and demand is in a seasonal off - peak. After the Dragon Boat Festival, the market will test whether agricultural fertilizer procurement can start effectively. If not, it may further pressure the market [44]. Polyolefin - For plastics, there is an expectation of inventory reduction in early June due to increased maintenance and less imports. For PP, supply pressure will increase as maintenance ends. Demand lacks sustainability after a round of replenishment. Unilateral trading for PP can be short - biased at high prices, and the LP spread is expected to widen [46]. Polyester Industry Chain - **PX**: In June, PX supply - demand is expected to be tight, but may weaken after mid - June. It is expected to fluctuate at a high level. Consider short - selling at high levels, gradually exit the PX9 - 1 positive spread, and look for opportunities to narrow the PX - SC spread [50]. - **PTA**: In June, PTA supply - demand remains tight but may weaken in late June. It is expected to fluctuate at a high level. Consider short - selling at high levels and exit the TA9 - 1 positive spread at high prices [50]. - **MEG**: In June, the supply - demand structure of ethylene glycol is good, with inventory reduction expectations. Consider buying EG09 at around 4200 and taking a positive spread for EG9 - 1 [50]. - **Short - fiber**: In June, short - fiber supply - demand is expected to be weak. It is expected to fluctuate at a high level following the cost. Consider expanding the PF July processing fee around 800 [50]. - **Bottle chips**: In June, bottle chip supply - demand is expected to improve, and processing fees will be supported. Consider expanding the processing fee at the lower end of the 350 - 600 yuan/ton range [50]. 3. Summaries by Relevant Catalogs Crude Oil - **Price and Spread Data**: On June 3, Brent was at $65.12/barrel, WTI at $63.05/barrel.

Styrene - **Price and Spread Data**: On May 30, most upstream prices decreased, and some styrene - related prices and spreads also changed. For example, styrene - pure benzene spread decreased by 2.5%. The supply - demand of styrene is expected to loosen in June [2]. Chlor - Alkali - **PVC and Caustic Soda Data**: On May 30, most PVC and caustic soda spot and futures prices were stable or changed slightly. Caustic soda exports had a small profit change, and PVC exports' profit increased significantly. In June, caustic soda maintenance is high, and PVC supply pressure is expected to increase [30][40]. Urea - **Futures and Related Data**: On May 30, most urea futures prices decreased slightly. Supply is high, with daily production increasing, and demand is weak, in a seasonal off - peak [44]. Polyolefin - **PE and PP Data**: On May 30, PE and PP futures prices decreased. Some spreads and basis values changed. In early June, plastics may see inventory reduction, while PP supply pressure will increase later [46]. Polyester Industry Chain - **Price and Spread Data**: On May 30, upstream and downstream prices in the polyester industry chain changed. For example, PX prices decreased, and some polyester product prices and cash - flows also changed. Different products in the polyester chain have different supply - demand and price trends in June [50].
