估值蛰伏,震荡未央
Dong Zheng Qi Huo· 2025-06-30 15:21
1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The report gives a "sideways" rating for cotton [1] 2. Core Views of the Report - The international cotton market is expected to maintain a low - level sideways pattern in the second half of the year, with an estimated operating range of 65 - 80 cents per pound. The domestic cotton market is also expected to have a low - level sideways pattern, with an estimated range of 12,500 - 14,500 yuan per ton. Attention should be paid to factors such as weather, trade policies, and macro - dynamics [2][3] - For investment strategies, it is recommended to focus on short - term opportunities to short the January contract on rallies and conduct band trading within the estimated range. Also, pay attention to potential reverse arbitrage opportunities between November and January contracts [4] 3. Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 3.1. First Half of the Year: Trade Wars Intensified Cotton Market Fluctuations - In the first quarter, the external market was weakly sideways with a downward shift in the center, while the domestic market was range - bound and relatively resilient. The international market faced a more relaxed supply - demand situation, and the trade war cast a shadow over demand. The ICE cotton price fluctuated weakly around the cost of US cotton, with an operating range of 63 - 69 cents per pound. The domestic market had support from low raw material inventories in downstream spinning enterprises and low social inventories of cotton yarn, but was also constrained by unhedged and unpriced resources of ginning factories and concerns about demand due to the trade war. The Zhengzhou cotton futures fluctuated in the range of 13,300 - 13,900 yuan per ton [16] - In the second quarter, trade policy changes led to intensified fluctuations in both the external and domestic markets. The external market was relatively stable, while the domestic market was more volatile. The price difference between the domestic and international markets first narrowed and then widened. Overall, the domestic market was stronger than the external market [17][18][19] 3.2. International Cotton Fundamental Situation 3.2.1. United States - The USDA may have limited room to further lower the production estimate for the 2025/26 US cotton season. The actual sown area may be lower than the intended area, and the abandonment rate is expected to be between 10% - 20%. The estimated production range is 2.9 - 3.265 million tons [22][23][25] - The export target for the 2024/25 US cotton season has been basically achieved, but the export contract signing for the 2025/26 season has been slow. As of June 12, the cumulative export contract volume for the 2025/26 season was 378,000 tons, a 15% year - on - year decrease [37][38] - The inventory - to - use ratio of US cotton in the 2025/26 season is expected to decline year - on - year but remain at a moderately high historical level. The estimated inventory - to - use ratio is between 29.3% - 30.8%, and the ICE cotton price is expected to fluctuate in the range of 65 - 85 cents per pound [53] 3.2.2. India - The monsoon rainfall is expected to be abundant, and there is a possibility of an increase in the planting area and production. The USDA's estimates of India's cotton planting area and production may be underestimated [60][62] - The net import volume of Indian cotton in the 2025/26 season may continue to increase. Attention should be paid to the US - India trade negotiations and the inventory digestion progress of the Cotton Corporation of India (CCI) [68] 3.2.3. Brazil - Brazil's cotton production in 2025 is expected to reach a record high. The Conab has continuously raised its production estimate, and the latest estimate is 3.915 million tons, a 6.5% year - on - year increase [76] 3.2.4. Global - The global supply - demand pattern in the 2025/26 season is not expected to be tight. The USDA's subsequent estimates of global supply and demand may be adjusted to a more relaxed direction. The estimated global cotton production may be revised upwards by 400,000 - 600,000 tons or more, and the consumption may remain stable or slightly decline [84][87][89] 3.2.5. International Cotton Market Fundamental Summary and Market Outlook - It is expected that the cotton market will maintain a low - level sideways pattern in the second half of the year, with an estimated operating range of 65 - 80 cents per pound. Attention should be paid to factors such as weather, trade policies, and macro - dynamics [98] 3.3. Domestic Cotton Fundamental Situation 3.3.1. The Planting Area of Xinjiang Cotton has Expanded in the 2025/26 Season - The planting area of Xinjiang cotton has expanded due to planting structure adjustment and the reclamation of new land. The estimated increase in the national cotton planting area is between 1.7% - 3.3% [105] 3.3.2. Ginning Factories may Remain Rational in New Cotton Purchases - Ginning factories are expected to purchase new cotton rationally. The initial purchase price of seed cotton is expected to be flat or slightly lower year - on - year and then fluctuate weakly. The purchase price of cottonseed is expected to be higher than that of last year [110][111][112] 3.3.3. Commercial Inventory of Old Cotton has been Reduced Rapidly - The commercial inventory of old cotton has been reduced rapidly, which has led to concerns about a potential shortage during the transition between the old and new cotton seasons [3] 3.3.4. Registered Warehouse Receipts - Attention should be paid to the outflow of warehouse receipts in inland warehouses. If the warehouse receipts cannot be digested, there may still be reverse arbitrage opportunities between November and January contracts [4] 3.3.5. Import Volume of Cotton and Cotton Yarn has Decreased - The import volume of cotton and cotton yarn in the 2024/25 season has decreased [3] 3.3.6. Trade Wars and Textile Demand - Trade wars and the uncertain trade policies have cast a shadow over the demand for cotton. The downstream textile industry is in a slack season, and the demand in the second half of the year may be weaker than that of last year [2][3] 3.3.7. Domestic Supply - Demand Balance Sheet - The supply - demand situation in the 2024/25 season was tight, while the 2025/26 season may be a year of easy inventory accumulation [3]

Guang Da Qi Huo· 2025-06-30 05:37
1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report - The global cotton market in the 2025/26 season is expected to have a relatively loose supply - demand pattern. Although the supply - demand gap is expected to narrow compared to the previous year, the upward movement of cotton prices is difficult due to factors such as the expected high - yield in some major producing countries, geopolitical conflicts, and the expected slowdown of the global economy [3][8]. - In the international market, the center of the ICE US cotton futures price in the 2025/26 season is expected to move slightly higher than in the first half of the year, but the increase is limited, and it will generally operate within a range. Attention should be paid to macro and weather disturbances [8]. - In the domestic market, the bottom of the cotton price may have emerged, but the rebound of the cotton price is under pressure due to the high - yield expectation, and the upward space is relatively limited. The center of the Zhengzhou cotton futures price in the second half of the year may move slightly higher, but the space is expected to be limited [9]. 3. Summary According to Related Catalogs 3.1 Supply - **Global**: The USDA June report predicts that the global cotton output in the 2025/26 season will be 25.472 million tons, a year - on - year decrease of 639,000 tons. However, the market believes that the USDA underestimates the global cotton output, and the actual output decline may be lower [3][38]. - **US**: The planting area of US cotton this year has decreased by about 10 - 15% year - on - year. As of June 17, the area of US cotton affected by D1 - D4 level drought accounted for 3%, a week - on - week decrease of 3 percentage points and a year - on - year decrease of 6 percentage points. The good and excellent rate of US cotton is 48%, lower than the same period last year but higher than the performance during the harvest period last year. It is expected that the final output of US cotton this year will be basically the same as last year [3]. - **China**: Most of the new domestic cotton is in the budding and flowering stages, and the weather conditions are relatively suitable. It is a market consensus that the planting area has increased year - on - year, and the probability of a high - yield this year is relatively large [3]. 3.2 Demand - **Global**: The USDA June report predicts that the global cotton consumption in the 2025/26 season will be 25.639 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 263,000 tons. However, due to factors such as geopolitical conflicts and the expected slowdown of the global economic growth, the future uncertainty is still relatively large [4]. - **China**: From January to May, the cumulative retail sales of clothing, footwear, knitwear, and textiles in China were 613.84 billion yuan, a year - on - year increase of 3.3%. The cumulative retail sales of clothing products from January to May were 443.54 billion yuan, a year - on - year increase of 2.6%. The year - on - year increase in retail sales of textile and clothing products was lower than that of total social retail sales. As of the week of June 20, the comprehensive load of yarn was 53.88%, a year - on - year decrease of 1.24 percentage points; the load of pure cotton yarn mills was 52.66%, a year - on - year increase of 5.56 percentage points; the comprehensive load of staple fiber cloth was 49.28%, a year - on - year decrease of 1.42 percentage points; the load of pure cotton grey cloth was 45.6%, a year - on - year decrease of 0.74 percentage points [4]. 3.3 Import and Export - **US Cotton Exports**: As of June 13, the total signing volume of US cotton exports in the 2024/25 season was 2.731 million tons, a year - on - year decrease of 188,000 tons. The signing volume of exports to China was 169,000 tons, a year - on - year decrease of 1.015 million tons. The proportion of US cotton exports to China was only about 6%, reaching a historical low [5]. - **China's Imports**: In May, China's cotton imports were 40,000 tons, a new low in recent years, a month - on - month decrease of 20,000 tons and a year - on - year decrease of 220,000 tons. In May, the import volume of cotton yarn was 100,000 tons, a month - on - month decrease of 20,000 tons and a year - on - year decrease of 20,000 tons [5]. - **China's Exports**: In May 2025, the monthly export value of China's textile yarns, fabrics, and their products was 12.631 billion US dollars, a year - on - year decrease of 1.98%. From January to May, the cumulative export value of textile yarns, fabrics, and their products was 58.476 billion US dollars, a year - on - year increase of 2.5%. The monthly export value of clothing and clothing accessories was 13.578 billion US dollars, a year - on - year increase of 2.5%. The cumulative export from January to April was 58.195 billion US dollars, a year - on - year decrease of 0.5% [5]. 3.4 Inventory - **China**: As of the end of June, China's commercial cotton inventory was 3.1269 million tons, a month - on - month decrease of 331,800 tons; the industrial inventory was 930,100 tons, a month - on - month decrease of 11,000 tons; the total was 4.057 million tons, a month - on - month decrease of 342,800 tons and a year - on - year decrease of about 300,000 tons. As of the week of June 20, the comprehensive inventory of yarn was 26.14 days, a year - on - year decrease of 2.88 days; the comprehensive inventory of staple fiber cloth was 32.98 days, a year - on - year increase of 2.54 days. As of the week of June 21, the cotton inventory of textile enterprises was 27.38 days, a year - on - year increase of 5.2 days; the cotton yarn inventory of textile enterprises was 35.22 days, a year - on - year decrease of 10.88 days. As of the week of June 20, the cotton yarn inventory of weaving factories was 5.94 days, a year - on - year decrease of 0.34 days; the inventory of pure cotton grey cloth was 33.96 days, a year - on - year increase of 2.18 days [6]. 3.5 Price - The spot price of pure - combed 32 - count cotton yarn has fallen more than the futures price of cotton yarn. On June 27, 2025, the closing price of cotton yarn was 20,105 yuan/ton, a month - on - month decrease of 390 yuan/ton and a decline rate of 1.90%. The price of pure - combed 32 - count cotton yarn was 20,380 yuan/ton, a month - on - month decrease of 1,920 yuan/ton and a decline rate of 8.61% [29][31]. - The basis of cotton yarn has fluctuated and declined. On June 27, 2025, the basis of cotton yarn was 275 yuan/ton, a year - on - year decrease of 1,530 yuan/ton [33][35].

2025年棉花期货半年度行情展望:低价提振棉花需求
Guo Tai Jun An Qi Huo· 2025-06-23 12:12
Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Group 2: Core Viewpoints of the Report - In the second half of 2025, both domestic and international cotton markets currently lack obvious upward drivers and are likely to maintain a volatile trend [2][3][68] - It is recommended to pay attention to the reverse spread opportunities under the expectation of a looser domestic supply after October, specifically the Zhengzhou Cotton Futures 11 - 1 reverse spread [3][70] Group 3: Summary of Each Section 2025 H1 Cotton Futures Market Review - In H1 2025, Zhengzhou Cotton Futures mainly showed a volatile trend, with fluctuations mainly affected by the sentiment of the domestic financial market driven by macro - factors. There was a rebound before the Spring Festival, a sharp decline after the Tomb - Sweeping Festival due to the US tariff policy, and another rebound after the China - US peace talks in May [6] 2025 H2 Global Cotton Supply - Demand Situation Analysis Global Cotton Supply - In H2 2025, global cotton supply is expected to remain abundant. The bumper harvests of Brazilian and Australian cotton have laid the foundation for a loose supply. The market will mainly focus on US cotton production and also consider other major producing countries. Only when the combined production reduction of major producing countries exceeds expectations will the global supply tighten in H1 2026 [7][8][9] - **Brazil**: In 2025, Brazilian cotton production continued to increase, but the rising cost may slow down the area growth in 2026. The export situation in H2 2025 will affect farmers' planting willingness in 2026 [12][13][15] - **US**: The area and yield of US cotton in the 2025/26 season are uncertain. It is necessary to wait for the area outlook report at the end of June and pay attention to the weather from June to August. If the yield is flat year - on - year, the total supply will increase, and exports are expected to rebound. The export is also affected by economic and trade negotiations [20][23][25] - **Other Major Producing Countries**: The cotton production of India, Pakistan, Turkey, and Australia in the 2025/26 season is uncertain. If the production decreases by more than 400,000 tons year - on - year as estimated by USDA, it will benefit the exports of Brazil and the US, mainly in H1 2026 [30][32] Global Cotton Demand - From the macro - environment to micro - data, there is no optimistic outlook for global cotton demand. The instability of the global economy and international trade has a negative impact on cotton demand. The terminal's replenishment demand is not optimistic, and the direct import demand mainly depends on China [35][37][39] 2025 H2 China Cotton Market Supply - Demand Analysis China Cotton Supply - The market is worried that the domestic cotton inventory will be tight at the end of the 2024/25 season, but the inventory reduction speed may slow down from June to September. The new - year cotton production in Xinjiang is expected to remain high, and the national cotton area is also expected to increase [47][50][51] China Cotton Consumption - Since the 2024/25 season, the apparent consumption of domestic cotton has been better than expected. As long as the cotton price remains low, the demand in H2 2025 will remain stable. The terminal demand for textile and clothing has slowed down in terms of domestic sales and changed in terms of exports. The direct demand for cotton has increased due to capacity expansion and low prices [54][62][64]

Report Industry Investment Rating - All strategies for cotton, sugar, and pulp are rated as neutral [3][7][10] Core Views - The cotton market is affected by multiple factors including US policies, global supply - demand balance, and domestic production and demand. The price is expected to be volatile with a potential for a second dip [2][3] - The sugar market is facing a shift from global supply shortage to surplus. Zhengzhou sugar mainly follows the trend of raw sugar, and its price is influenced by Brazilian production and domestic import [6][7] - The pulp market is affected by macro - factors, supply - demand relationship, and tariff uncertainties. The price is expected to oscillate in the short term [9][10] Summary by Related Catalogs Cotton Market News and Important Data - Yesterday, the closing price of cotton 2509 contract was 13,260 yuan/ton, down 15 yuan/ton (-0.11%) from the previous day. The Xinjiang arrival price of 3128B cotton was 14,445 yuan/ton, down 4 yuan/ton, and the national average price was 14,553 yuan/ton, down 16 yuan/ton [1] - As of June 1st, the cotton planting rate in 15 major US cotton - growing states was 66%, 2 percentage points slower than last year and 3 points slower than the five - year average. The budding rate was 8%, the same as last year and 1 point higher than the five - year average. The good - to - excellent rate was 49%, 11 points lower than last year and 1 point higher than the five - year average [1] Market Analysis - Yesterday, the Zhengzhou cotton futures price fluctuated and closed lower. The US tariff policy is uncertain, and the domestic economic stimulus effect needs to be observed [2] - The USDA has adjusted the global cotton supply - demand balance for the 25/26 season, but there are still many uncertainties. The new - season US cotton planting area has decreased, and the sowing progress is slow, but the drought in the main producing areas has improved [2] - In China, the commercial cotton inventory is decreasing rapidly, but the new - season planting area is expected to increase, and the downstream demand is in the off - season with insufficient new orders [2] Strategy - A neutral strategy is recommended. The key lies in the time when downstream demand decline is transmitted to the upstream [3] Sugar Market News and Important Data - Yesterday, the closing price of sugar 2509 contract was 5,732 yuan/ton, down 31 yuan/ton (-0.54%) from the previous day.
