1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided on the report industry investment rating. 2. Core Views - The steel market shows a decline in inventory on a month - on - month basis and a slight increase in steel prices. However, the inventory reduction in the peak building materials season is less than in previous years, and the high - production and high - inventory contradiction in the plate market remains prominent. The short - term macro - expectation changes affect the market trend, and attention should be paid to subsequent steel mill production cuts and inventory reduction [1]. - The iron ore market has seen a small rebound. With the successful first shipment from Simandou, the overall iron ore valuation is high, the supply is relatively loose at high prices, and the subsequent demand is expected to weaken as steel mill profit shrinks and production cut expectations increase [3]. - The coking coal and coke (double - coking) market shows that the futures prices are in a wide - range oscillation pattern. The environmental protection in Wuhai, Inner Mongolia is tightening, and the elimination of backward coking capacity is accelerating. The overall supply of coking coal is slightly shrinking, and the demand for coke is showing a marginal weakening trend [5][6]. - The thermal coal market has seen a significant increase in coal prices due to strong downstream demand. Although the recent safety inspections have affected the supply of market coal to some extent, the overall impact is not large, and the short - term coal price is stable and slightly strong [7]. 3. Summary by Related Categories Steel Market Analysis - Futures and spot: The main steel futures contract rose on a month - on - month basis. The production of building materials and hot - rolled coils in the country declined this week, inventory changed from increasing to decreasing, and the apparent demand rebounded on a month - on - month basis. The overall spot steel trading was average, with prices basically stable or slightly rising, and a strong willingness to sell at low prices [1]. - Supply - demand and logic: The inventory reduction in the peak building materials season is less than in previous years. The industrial side needs to reduce prices, compress profits, and cut production to relieve the subsequent inventory accumulation pressure. The high - production and high - inventory contradiction in the plate market is still prominent. Short - term macro - expectation changes affect the market trend, and the steel inventory pressure cannot be ignored [1]. Strategy - Unilateral: Oscillate weakly [2]. Iron Ore Market Analysis - Futures and spot: The iron ore futures price rebounded slightly. The prices of mainstream imported iron ore varieties fluctuated slightly. Traders' quotes mostly followed the market, and steel mills' purchases were mainly for rigid demand. The cumulative transaction volume of iron ore at major domestic ports was 1.229 million tons, a month - on - month increase of 21.56%; the cumulative transaction volume of forward - looking spot was 0.866 million tons, a month - on - month decrease of 50.9%. The first shipment from Simandou was successful recently, and it is expected to achieve the target smoothly in the future [3]. - Supply - demand and logic: The current overall iron ore valuation is high, the supply is relatively loose at high prices. As steel mill profit shrinks, the expectation of steel mill production cuts is increasing, and the subsequent iron ore demand shows signs of weakening. Attention should be paid to the negative impact of the Simandou project's shipments and steel mill production cuts on iron ore prices [3]. Strategy - Unilateral: Oscillate weakly [4]. Double - Coking (Coking Coal and Coke) Market Analysis - Futures and spot: The double - coking futures prices oscillated strongly. In the imported coal market, traders were cautious, and quotes fluctuated with the market, with a general trading atmosphere. The environmental protection in Wuhai, Inner Mongolia is tightening, affecting the local supply decline. Wuhai and Ordos are accelerating the elimination of 4.3 - meter coke ovens, involving a total production capacity of more than 10 million tons [5]. - Supply - demand and logic: For coking coal, the Mongolian coal customs clearance volume remains high, and environmental protection restrictions have affected domestic production, resulting in a slight contraction in overall supply. The downstream blast furnace operating rate and molten iron output have declined slightly, and enterprises mainly purchase for rigid demand with weak restocking willingness. For coke, some coking enterprises are at the break - even point due to rising coal prices, and the production enthusiasm is limited. Coupled with the elimination of backward production capacity in Inner Mongolia, the coke supply is restricted. Steel mills have large inventory pressure, and the molten iron output is declining, so the actual demand for coke shows a marginal weakening trend [5][6]. Strategy - Coking coal: Oscillate [7]. - Coke: Oscillate [7]. Thermal Coal Market Analysis - Futures and spot: In the production area, recent safety inspections are strict, the number of coal mines with production suspension and reduction has increased, the overall supply has tightened, the upstream quotes are firm, and the downstream terminal demand is continuously released, so the pit - mouth coal price continues to rise. At ports, the coal price is running strongly. The Datong - Qinhuangdao Railway is still in the maintenance stage, the shipping volume increase is limited, and the port inventory accumulation speed is relatively slow. In the import market, the recent trend of the imported coal market is stable, the price advantage of imported coal is obvious, downstream tenders are gradually increasing, and the import bid price has increased slightly [7]. - Supply - demand and logic: Although the recent safety inspections have affected the supply of market coal to some extent, the overall impact is not large. The downstream winter storage demand is good, and the non - power coal demand is strong, so the short - term coal price is stable and slightly strong [7].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided regarding the industry investment rating 2. Core View of the Report - The report anticipates that PX, PTA, and PR will operate in a volatile manner. The prices of these products are influenced by factors such as international oil prices, supply - demand relationships, and market sentiment. Crude oil shows signs of stabilizing, and short - term prices may be repaired. Although the fundamentals of PTA have improved slightly due to warm - keeping demand, its price will still follow the cost. The PR market has sufficient supply and stable demand, and its price also follows the cost [2]. 3. Summary by Related Catalogs Price Information - **Upstream Prices**: On October 22, 2025, the futures settlement prices of WTI crude oil and Brent crude oil were $58.50/barrel and $62.59/barrel, up 2.20% and 2.07% respectively. The spot price of naphtha (CFR Japan) was $551.50/ton, up 2.13%. The prices of various PX - related products also showed different degrees of increase, with the PX CFR China main port price at $798.00/ton, up 1.83% [1]. - **PTA Prices**: The CZCE TA main - contract closing price was 4482 yuan/ton, up 1.54%. The spot price of domestic PTA was 545 yuan/ton, up 1.30%. The CCFEI price index of PTA inner - market was 4370 yuan/ton, up 1.04%, while the outer - market index was $589.00/ton, down 0.17% [1]. - **PX Prices**: The CZCE PX main - contract closing price was 6450 yuan/ton, up 1.86%. The domestic spot price of PX was 6224 yuan/ton, up 0.18%. The PXN spread was $246.50/ton, up 1.16%, and the PX - MX spread was $125.50/ton, up 7.11% [1]. - **PR Prices**: The CZCE PR main - contract closing price was 5600 yuan/ton, up 1.19%. The mainstream market prices of polyester bottle - chips in East China and South China were 5670 yuan/ton and 5720 yuan/ton, up 0.71% and 1.06% respectively [1]. - **Downstream Prices**: The CCFEI price indices of most downstream products such as polyester fibers were stable, except for the price index of polyester short - fibers, which was 6310 yuan/ton, up 0.48% [2]. Operating Conditions - The operating rates of the polyester industry chain, including PX, PTA factories, polyester factories, bottle - chip factories, and Jiangsu - Zhejiang looms, remained unchanged on October 22, 2025. The production - sales ratios of polyester products varied, with the production - sales ratio of polyester filaments at 53.33%, down 32.88 percentage points, while those of polyester short - fibers and polyester chips were 107.77% and 141.10%, up 41.19 and 47.57 percentage points respectively [1]. Device Information - A 700,000 - ton PX device in Northeast China has been under maintenance since September 18, with an expected maintenance period of about 45 days [2]. Important News and Logic - **PX**: International oil prices continued to rise on October 22, 2025, supported by the tense relationship between the US and Venezuela and the US plan to purchase oil to replenish the strategic reserve. Although the cost - driving effect was average, domestic refinery maintenance plans led to expectations of supply reduction. The demand side of PTA was okay, but market trading was cautious. The PX2601 contract closed at 6450 yuan/ton [2]. - **PTA**: The cost support of PTA slightly recovered. The TA2601 contract closed at 4482 yuan/ton. Although the PTA factory had low profits, it did not further reduce production. The polyester filament production - sales were booming on Tuesday, and the potential reduction of a PX device in East China boosted the market. However, new PTA devices were about to start trials or restart, and the weaving orders were unstable with high坯布 inventory [2]. - **PR**: The mainstream negotiation price of polyester bottle - chips in the Jiangsu - Zhejiang market was 5620 - 5720 yuan/ton, up 30 yuan/ton. The rebound of PTA and bottle - chip futures pushed up the supply - side quotes, but downstream procurement was mainly for rigid demand, and the market trading atmosphere was average. The PR2601 contract closed at 5600 yuan/ton [2].

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - On October 22, equity indices fell while most CGB futures rose. More commodities rose, with energy & chemicals performing strongly [2][10][13]. - The price of crude oil increased by 2.5% on October 22, but the rebound space is expected to be limited due to persistent downward pressure on fundamentals and uncertain macroeconomics and geopolitics [16][18]. - Gold and silver decreased by 3.9% on October 22. After the concentrated realization of bullish factors, the market may enter a phased correction period. However, in the long run, the bull market trend of precious metals has not yet reversed [23][27][28]. Summary by Directory 1. China Futures 1.1 Overview - On October 22, equity indices fell (IC decreased by 0.8%), most CGB futures rose (TL increased by 0.1%), more commodities rose, and energy & chemicals performed strongly. Among commodities, the top three gainers were bitumen (up 2.9% with open interest up 2.7% month - on - month), rapeseed (up 2.5% with open interest up 6.5% month - on - month), and crude oil (up 2.5% with open interest up 5.1% month - on - month). The top three decliners were gold (down 3.9% with open interest down 6.0% month - on - month), silver (down 3.9% with open interest down 9.0% month - on - month), and RBD palm olein (down 1.7% with open interest up 3.8% month - on - month) [10][11][13]. 1.2 Daily Raise - Crude Oil - On October 22, crude oil increased by 2.5% to 447.2 yuan/barrel. The downward pressure on fundamentals persists, and the outlook for macroeconomics and geopolitics remains uncertain. The room for rebound is expected to be limited. API data shows a slight draw in U.S. crude oil, gasoline, and diesel inventories last week, but the sustainability of this trend is limited. The supply side is in a phase of production increase, and there is pressure for accelerated crude oil inventory accumulation [16][17][18]. 1.3 Daily Drop - Gold & Silver - On October 22, gold decreased by 3.9% to 952.56 yuan/gram, and silver decreased by 3.9% to 11404 yuan/kg.
