Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - The current trading logic is that port pressure is transmitted to the inland. The inland has seasonal stocking demand and incremental stocking from new Lianhong units in the later stage, but the port will continuously cause reverse flow impacts. The current price in the futures market is benchmarked against the inland price, and the inland's actions are crucial later. Xingxing is expected to resume operation in early September, but inventory is still accumulating. Reverse flow can relieve port pressure but will affect the inland valuation. Currently, the valuation and inventory are average, and the driving force is weak. It is still necessary to wait before bottom - fishing (import variables include India's purchase of Iranian products, unplanned maintenance, etc.) [2][3] - For polyethylene, the inventory of the two major oil companies is neutral year - on - year. The upstream two major oil companies and coal chemical enterprises are reducing inventory, and the social inventory remains flat. The downstream raw material and finished product inventories are also neutral. The overall inventory is neutral. The basis for the 09 contract is around - 110 in North China and - 50 in East China. The overseas markets in Europe, America, and Southeast Asia are stable. The import profit is around - 200, with no further increase for now. The price of non - standard HD injection molding is stable, and other price differentials are fluctuating, with LD weakening. The maintenance in September is flat month - on - month, and the recent domestic linear production has decreased month - on - month. Attention should be paid to the LL - HD conversion situation and the US quotation. The pressure from new plants in 2025 is significant, and the commissioning of new plants should be monitored [3] - For polypropylene, the upstream two major oil companies and the middle - stream are reducing inventory. In terms of valuation, the basis is - 60, the non - standard price differential is neutral, and the import profit is around - 700. Exports have been performing well this year. The non - standard price differential is neutral, and the markets in Europe and America are stable. The PDH profit is around - 400, propylene is fluctuating, and the powder production start - up rate is stable. The拉丝 production ratio is neutral. The subsequent supply is expected to increase slightly month - on - month. The current downstream orders are average, and the raw material and finished product inventories are neutral. Against the background of over - capacity, the pressure on the 01 contract is expected to be moderately excessive. If exports continue to increase significantly or there are many PDH plant maintenance, the supply pressure can be alleviated to a neutral level [3] - For PVC, the basis is maintained at 01 - 270, and the factory - pickup basis is - 480. The downstream start - up rate is seasonally weakening, and the willingness to hold inventory at low prices is strong. The inventory of the middle and upstream is continuously accumulating. The summer seasonal maintenance of northwest plants has a load center between the spring maintenance and the high production in Q1. In Q4, attention should be paid to the implementation of new plant commissioning and the sustainability of exports. The recent near - term export orders have slightly declined. The coal market sentiment is positive, the cost of semi - coke is stable, and the profit of calcium carbide is under pressure due to PVC maintenance; the counter - offer for caustic soda exports is FOB380. Attention should be paid to whether subsequent export orders can support the high price of caustic soda. The comprehensive profit of PVC is - 100. Currently, the static inventory contradiction is accumulating slowly, the cost is stable, the downstream performance is mediocre, and the macro - environment is neutral. Attention should be paid to exports, coal prices, commercial housing sales, terminal orders, and start - up rates [3] Summary by Related Catalogs Methanol and Polyolefins - The report provides price data for methanol and polyolefins on different dates including power coal futures, spot prices in different regions, CFR prices, import profits, basis, and MTO profits [2] Polyethylene - Price data for Northeast Asia ethylene, LL and LD in different regions, import profits, futures prices, basis, two - oil inventories, and warehouse receipts are provided from September 26 to October 10, 2025 [3] Polypropylene - Price data for Shandong propylene, Northeast Asia propylene, PP in different regions, PP in US dollars, export profits, futures prices, basis, two - oil inventories, and warehouse receipts are provided from September 26 to October 10, 2025 [3] PVC - Price data for northwest calcium carbide, Shandong caustic soda, different production methods of PVC in different regions, import prices, export profits, comprehensive profits, and basis are provided from September 26 to October 10, 2025 [3]

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The PVC industry is currently in a situation of strong supply and weak demand. The comprehensive profit of enterprises has declined to the lowest level this year, and the valuation pressure has decreased. However, the supply - side maintenance volume is small, and the output is at a historical high. With multiple new devices to be tested in the short term, domestic downstream demand is weak, and export expectations are poor in the fourth quarter. The medium - term supply - demand pattern is poor after the new device is put into production, and it is difficult to reverse the oversupply situation [11]. Summary According to the Directory 1. Monthly Assessment and Strategy Recommendation - **Cost - profit**: Wuhai calcium carbide price is 2400 yuan/ton, unchanged year - on - month; Shandong calcium carbide price is 2890 yuan/ton, up 160 yuan/ton year - on - month; Shaanxi medium - grade semi - coke is 730 yuan/ton, up 70 yuan/ton year - on - month. The comprehensive profit of chlor - alkali integration has dropped significantly from the high, while the profit of ethylene production has improved slightly, and the overall valuation support has strengthened [11]. - **Supply**: The PVC capacity utilization rate is 82.6%, up 5.5% year - on - month. Among them, the calcium carbide method is 82.9%, up 6.2% year - on - month; the ethylene method is 81.9%, up 3.8% year - on - month. The maintenance volume increased slightly last month, but new devices released production, and the supply pressure actually increased. This month, the maintenance intensity is expected to decrease, and two new devices are planned to be tested and put into production this year, so the supply pressure is expected to continue to rise [11]. - **Demand**: In terms of exports, the year - on - year growth rate of export volume in August was weaker than that in the first half of the year, and it was difficult to drive the destocking of domestic inventory. The Indian anti - dumping policy is expected to be implemented from October to November, and the export growth rate is expected to decline further. The start - up of the three major downstream industries has rebounded slightly, but the overall downstream load is still weak in the real estate downturn cycle and difficult to reverse the oversupply situation [11]. - **Inventory**: The factory inventory is 38.4 tons, up 6.8 tons year - on - month; the social inventory is 103.6 tons, up 11.8 tons year - on - month; the overall inventory is 142 tons, up 18.6 tons year - on - month; the warehouse receipts continue to rise. Currently in the inventory accumulation cycle, inventory accumulation will continue without unexpected performance at the export end or obvious upstream production cuts [11]. - **Summary**: Last month, the trading was mainly based on the weak fundamentals of PVC. There was a rebound in the middle of the month driven by the sentiment of the building materials and black sectors, but it was difficult to support the weak pattern of significant inventory accumulation. In the medium term, the supply - demand pattern is poor after the new devices are put into production, and it is necessary to rely on export growth or the elimination of old devices to digest the domestic excess capacity. It is recommended to pay attention to short - selling opportunities on rallies in the medium term [11]. 2. Futures and Spot Market - The report provides multiple charts related to the PVC futures and spot market, including the term structure, spot basis, 1 - 5 spread, and the prices of PVC in the East China SG - 5 market, as well as the trading volume and open interest of active contracts and total contracts, to show the market price and trading situation of PVC [15][19][24][26]. 3. Profit and Inventory - **Profit**: The comprehensive profit of chlor - alkali integration has dropped to a historical low, and the valuation pressure has decreased [42]. - **Inventory**: The factory inventory and social inventory of PVC have both increased year - on - month, and the overall inventory is in the accumulation cycle. The warehouse receipts are also rising [11]. The report also provides multiple charts to show the inventory changes of PVC in different production methods and the overall inventory situation [31][32][34][38]. 4. Cost Side - Calcium carbide prices have risen and then fallen, semi - coke prices have stabilized and rebounded, caustic soda prices have declined, and ethylene prices have fallen [49][52]. The report provides multiple charts to show the price and inventory changes of calcium carbide, semi - coke, caustic soda, and ethylene [50][53][56]. 5. Supply Side - In 2025, the PVC capacity will be significantly increased, mainly concentrated in the third quarter. A total of 250 tons of new capacity will be put into production throughout the year [61][66]. Although the average load of PVC decreased in September, the output was difficult to reduce due to the new device production [69]. The report also provides charts to show the historical trend of PVC capacity, the quarterly production capacity of new devices, and the production start - up and weekly output of PVC [62][64][75]. 6. Demand Side - The start - up of the three major downstream industries of PVC has rebounded, but it is still weak in the real estate downturn cycle and difficult to reverse the oversupply situation. The export volume in August increased year - on - year, but the growth rate was weaker than that in the first half of the year, and the export growth rate is expected to decline further after the implementation of the Indian anti - dumping policy [11][78]. The report provides multiple charts to show the start - up of downstream industries, export volume, pre - sale volume, and the situation of the real estate market [78][86][91].

Report Industry Investment Ratings - Urea, Methanol, Pure Benzene, Styrene, Propylene, Plastic, PVC, Caustic Soda, PX, PTA, Ethylene Glycol, Short Fiber, Glass, Soda Ash, Bottle Chip: Investment ratings are provided with star symbols, where red stars represent a predicted upward trend and green stars represent a predicted downward trend. One star means a bias towards long/short with a driving force for an upward/downward trend but limited operability on the trading floor. Two stars mean holding long/short with a clearer upward/downward trend and the market condition is evolving. Three stars mean an even clearer long/short trend and there are still relatively appropriate investment opportunities. White stars mean the short-term long/short trend is in a relatively balanced state and the current trading floor has poor operability, suggesting a wait-and-see approach [1][9] Core Views - The chemical market shows a complex situation with different trends in various sub - sectors. Some products are affected by factors such as supply - demand imbalances, seasonal changes, and raw material price fluctuations [2][3][5] Summary by Related Catalogs Olefins - Polyolefins - Propylene prices continued to rise due to early planned maintenance of a device in Dongying during the National Day holiday and the gradual recovery of some downstream demand. However, the futures price fell on the first trading day after the holiday, resulting in a divergence between the futures and spot markets and an expansion of the basis. - For polyolefins, the peak season demand was weak, with mainly rigid demand procurement. The large - scale release of new production capacity on the supply side led to a significant increase in domestic production this year, resulting in prominent supply - demand contradictions. Production enterprises accumulated inventory during the double festivals, and there was obvious pressure to reduce inventory after the holiday, causing prices to be under pressure [2] Pure Benzene - Styrene - During the National Day, the oil price fell. The pure benzene futures price once dropped below 5700 yuan/ton in the morning session and then rebounded following the oil price in the afternoon. The spot price in East China was weak, the shipment in Shandong was dull, and the listed price of Sinopec remained stable. The device operation rate continued to rise, the port inventory decreased, the actual fundamentals were okay, but the basis weakened compared to before the holiday. High import volume and the expectation of future demand decline continued to drag down the market. - The main contract of styrene futures closed slightly lower within the day, and the overall center of gravity moved down along the 5 - day moving average. The oil price first decreased and then increased during the holiday, remaining basically the same as before the holiday, having limited impact on the cost side of styrene. On the supply - demand fundamentals, the peak season demand was weak. Due to the expansion of production capacity, the domestic supply increased significantly. The total inventory of styrene has been significantly higher year - on - year since this year, showing a trend of oscillatory inventory accumulation after June. The supply - side pressure was large, suppressing the styrene price, and the styrene market was in a bearish pattern [3] Polyester - The overseas oil price fell during the holiday. The prices of PX and PTA weakened in the morning session and then rebounded in the afternoon due to the oil price recovery. The operation rate of PX continued to increase. Hengli Dalian's PTA carried out maintenance, and the East China device reduced its load due to an accident. In the short term, PX was expected to be under pressure, and the PTA segment repaired its profit. However, the PX of Wushi Petrochemical was planned for maintenance, and the polyester load was expected to be maintained. The short - term supply - demand pattern of upstream raw materials was okay. Attention should be paid to terminal orders and raw material restocking. In mid - to late October, the downstream demand was expected to gradually weaken, and the supply - demand situation would still be under pressure in the long run. - The domestic operation rate of ethylene glycol increased significantly, and the port inventory accumulated significantly during the holiday. The fundamentals were weak, and the main futures price once approached the 4100 yuan/ton mark within the day. In the medium term, with the mass production of new devices and the weakening of future demand, the supply - demand situation would gradually weaken in the fourth quarter. Under the expectation of inventory accumulation, the 1 - 5 spread was under pressure to decline. - The new production capacity of short fiber was limited, and the operation rate was at a high level. The terminal weaving and dyeing industries increased their operation rates. The recovery of peak - season demand boosted the short - fiber industry. It was recommended to continue to be long in the short term. Attention should be paid to downstream orders and short - fiber inventory. The operation rate of bottle chips increased, but after the long holiday, as the weather turned cooler, the demand was expected to weaken. Overcapacity was a long - term pressure, and the processing margin was continuously under pressure [5] Coal Chemical Industry - The methanol futures price dropped significantly. During the holiday, the import volume remained high, and the port inventory continued to accumulate. The capacity utilization rate of domestic methanol devices increased. Before the holiday, inland olefin enterprises made large - scale external purchases, and enterprises had sufficient orders to be delivered, but the order execution was slowed down due to logistics restrictions, and the inventory of production enterprises increased slightly. The import was expected to remain sufficient, the port was expected to continue to accumulate inventory, and the short - term weakness would continue. The long - term outlook was relatively positive. Attention should be paid to macro - sentiment and changes in overseas devices. - During the National Day holiday, urea production enterprises significantly accumulated inventory, the supply remained high, and enterprises faced great pressure to sell. Affected by weather and logistics factors, the downstream demand was insufficient. Export orders were being shipped, and the port inventory decreased. Although India issued a new round of urea tenders, planning to import 2 million tons, the export window period might have ended, so the short - term boost to the market was limited. The domestic supply - demand situation of urea remained loose. Attention should be paid to possible policy adjustments and their impact on market sentiment [6] Chlor - alkali Industry - The main contract of PVC dropped. During the holiday, the downstream demand weakened, the supply was at a high level, and the inventory increased significantly. After the end of maintenance and the release of new production capacity, the supply pressure was high. The downstream's intention to stock up was low, and the industry continued the inventory - accumulation pattern. The integrated chlor - alkali enterprises still had profits, but the cost support was not obvious. In a weak real - situation pattern, PVC might show a weak - oscillatory trend. - The caustic soda futures price dropped significantly. There were still vehicle - waiting phenomena among downstream buyers, and the purchase price might be further reduced. The inventory increased compared to the previous period. There were maintenance plans for caustic soda in North and East China in October, but the scale was small. Since there were still profits, the supply was still operating at a high level. The liquid caustic soda inventory of alumina plants in Shanxi and Henan was high, and the downstream profit margin shrank. They were resistant to high - priced products. The weak real - situation pattern continued, but there might be restocking demand before the future downstream alumina production. Since the strong - expectation could not be falsified, it was recommended to wait and see [7] Soda Ash - Glass - The soda ash futures price was in a weak state. The inventory decreased before the holiday and increased after the holiday. The rigid demand for heavy soda was stable. The production capacity of float glass and photovoltaic glass has been stable recently. The inventory of the photovoltaic industry increased after a decrease. It was expected that the ignition speed would slow down in the future, and the incremental rigid demand for heavy soda was limited. There were few maintenance plans in October, the industry's current operating pressure was not large, and the supply would operate at a high level. The long - term supply - demand surplus situation remained unchanged. Opportunities to short at high prices should be sought, but be cautious when approaching the cost level. - The glass futures price fluctuated within a narrow range. During the holiday, downstream enterprises had holidays, and the production and sales were insufficient. The industry seasonally accumulated inventory, and some regions increased their quoted prices. The daily melting volume was oscillating at a relatively high level. The processing orders improved but were still insufficient on a month - on - month basis, and some project orders increased. Whether Shajiahe would intensively use Zhengkang's deep - processed gas should be continuously monitored. If the production - capacity reduction does not actually occur, the market may return to the weak - real - situation trading. However, with the current low valuation, the expected decline range is also limited. In the future, a low - buying strategy near the cost level can be considered [8]

Core Viewpoint - The report from CMB International indicates a downward revision of Budweiser APAC's (01876) EBITDA and net profit forecasts for 2025-2027 by 5-7% and 5-9% respectively, reflecting recent weak performance. The target price is adjusted to HKD 9.50 while maintaining a buy rating [1] Group 1: Financial Performance Expectations - The company is expected to face short-term pressure on its Q3 performance, with a projected revenue decline of 6.4% year-on-year. Adjusted EBITDA is anticipated to decrease by 14.4%, and adjusted net profit is expected to be USD 190 million, down 14.6% year-on-year [2] - The core pressure is attributed to weak performance in the ready-to-drink channel in mainland China, partially offset by strong growth in the Indian market, price increases in the Korean market, and cost improvements. The current stock price reflects short-term sales pressure, and a dividend yield exceeding 5% is expected to support the stock price [2] Group 2: Regional Performance Insights - In the Asia Pacific West region, the ready-to-drink channel in mainland China is under pressure due to factors such as alcohol bans and price wars on delivery platforms. The company is expected to see a high single-digit year-on-year revenue decline in this region, with significant declines in both volume and average price. Despite a trend towards premiumization in non-ready-to-drink channels, adverse changes in channel mix and promotional activities are expected to negatively impact average prices [3] - The company has proactively adjusted inventory to alleviate pressure on distributors, and inventory management is reported to be good, providing support for future recovery. A marginal recovery is anticipated in Q4, while the Indian market is expected to continue its growth momentum from the first half of the year, contributing to improved EBITDA margins [3] - In the Asia Pacific East region, performance is expected to be relatively stable, with slight revenue declines influenced by exchange rates. Volume is projected to decrease in low single digits, while average prices are expected to grow in mid-single digits, leading to a slight increase in adjusted EBITDA. Brand and channel optimization, along with recent price increases, are expected to support average price performance [4]

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - This week, the supply and demand of the five major steel products increased compared to the previous week, and the inventory changed from an increase to a decrease. The apparent demand for rebar increased week-on-week, while that for hot-rolled coils decreased. Seasonally, the week-on-week rebound of rebar demand is in line with expectations and is likely the high or second-high point for the second half of the year, but the current demand remains weak, suggesting limited improvement in the future. The inventory shows a pattern of "decreasing rebar and increasing hot-rolled coils," and all products are in a state of super-seasonal inventory accumulation. High supply exerts pressure on the market, but high molten iron production and pre-holiday raw material restocking support costs. However, post-holiday restocking may weaken, and continuous super-seasonal inventory accumulation could lead to negative feedback and production cuts [3]. Summary by Related Catalogs Price Forecast and Risk Management Strategies - **Price Forecast**: The predicted monthly range for the 01 contract of rebar is 3000 - 3300, with a current volatility of 11.63% and a volatility percentile of 16.5%. For hot-rolled coils, the range is 3200 - 3500, with a volatility of 11.11% and a percentile of 9.72% [2]. - **Risk Management Strategies**: - **Inventory Management**: For high finished product inventory, sell rebar or hot-rolled coil futures (30% for RB2501 at 3150 - 3200 and 30% for HC2501 at 3350 - 3400) to lock in profits. Also, sell call options (20% for RB2601C3400 at 35 - 45) to reduce costs and lock in selling prices [2]. - **Procurement Management**: For low procurement inventory, buy rebar or hot-rolled coil futures (30% for RB2601 and HC2601 at 3050 - 3100 and 3250 - 3300) to lock in procurement costs. Sell put options (20% for RB2601P3000 at 50 - 60) to collect premiums and lock in buying prices [2]. Market Data - **Futures and Spot Prices**: On September 26, 2025, rebar futures prices decreased compared to the previous day, with the 01 contract closing at 3114 (-53). Spot prices also declined, e.g., the national average was 3288 (-18). Hot-rolled coil futures and spot prices also fell, with the 01 contract closing at 3313 (-45) and the Shanghai spot price at 3370 (-30) [7]. - **Overseas Data**: Hot-rolled coil FOB export prices in China, Japan, India, etc., decreased slightly week-on-week. CFR import prices in some regions also declined [8]. - **Spreads**: The rebar 01 - 05 month spread was -57 (+1), and the hot-rolled coil 10 - 01 month spread was 82 (+20). The spot spread between hot-rolled coils and rebar in Shanghai was 130 (-30) [8]. - **Ratios**: The 01 rebar/01 iron ore ratio was 3.93 (+0.0136), and the 01 rebar/01 coke ratio was 1.84 (+0.04) [9]. - **Seasonal Data**: Various seasonal charts are provided, including rebar and hot-rolled coil basis, month spreads, and profit margins [10][11][12].
