Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content 2. Core Viewpoints - This week, the high - sulfur crack spread fluctuated and declined, the near - month spread decreased, and EW continued to weaken. The 380 8 - 9 month spread weakened to $1.75, the basis weakened and then fluctuated, and the FU09 internal - external spread rebounded slightly. The domestic market had a large amount of deliverable goods, maintaining a loose pattern [6]. - The Singapore 0.5 crack spread declined slightly, the month spread weakened, and the 8 - 9 month spread fluctuated around $4.5. The LU internal - external spread weakened slightly and then fluctuated, with the 09 spread fluctuating around $16 [6]. - This week, Singapore's on - land inventory increased significantly. The near - month was under pressure due to delivery pressure on the window, and Saudi shipments increased month - on - month. Recently, fuel oil exports from Iran and Iraq remained at a high level, Egypt's net imports reached a new high, and the high - sulfur supply - demand was still in the peak season. However, the East - West and internal - external spreads had fallen rapidly. The external low - sulfur valuation was relatively high, and the LU internal - external spread was running at a high level. Attention should be paid to the domestic production situation [7]. - The Singapore Hi - 5 spread reached a new high this year. Both 380cst and VLSFO weakened. The domestic FU internal - external spread rebounded slightly, and the LU valuation was relatively high. Attention could be paid to the short - term valuation regression opportunity of FU - LU, with the risk being the continuous weakening of the external 380cst [7]. 3.

Group 1: Report Summary - The report is a data daily report on agricultural products, specifically focusing on the soybean and bean meal markets [4][5] - It was released by the Agricultural Products Research Center of Guomao Futures Research Institute on July 24, 2025 [5] Group 2: Market Data Basis Data - The basis of the main bean meal contract in Zhangjiagang on July 23 was -25, with a change of 21. Other locations like Tianjin had a basis of -55 (change of 51), and Rizhao had -175 (change of 11) [6] - The basis of 43% bean meal spot in different locations such as Zhangjiagang (-175, change of -9), Dongguan (-195, change of 11), etc., was also reported [6] - The basis of rapeseed meal spot in Guangdong was -128 [6] Spread Data - The M9 - M1 spread was -21, M9 - RM9 was -3, and RM9 - 1 was 15. The spot spread of bean meal - rapeseed meal in Guangdong was 337 (change of -13), and the spread of the main contract was 270 (change of -10) [7] Exchange Rate and Profit Data - The US dollar to RMB exchange rate was 7.1137. The soybean CNF premium was 110.00 cents per bushel, and the import soybean gross profit was reported for different Brazilian months [7] Inventory and Supply - Demand Data - The supply side shows that the good - to - excellent rate of US soybeans has risen to 70%. In the next two weeks, parts of Kansas and Nebraska may face high - temperature and drought conditions, but overall, the weather is favorable for soybean growth. With the pressure of concentrated arrivals of Brazilian soybeans, the domestic soybean crushing volume in July and August is expected to exceed 10 million tons, and the pressure of bean meal inventory accumulation is expected to last until September [7] - On the demand side, short - term high inventory of pig and poultry farming supports feed demand. The high cost - performance of bean meal increases its proportion in feed, and提货 is at a high level. However, wheat substitution for corn in some areas reduces protein demand [8] - In terms of inventory, domestic soybean inventory has increased to a high level, bean meal is in the inventory accumulation cycle, and the inventory days of feed enterprises for bean meal have increased [8] Group 3: Core View - Overall, domestic bean meal is in the inventory accumulation cycle, and the basis is expected to continue to be under pressure. There are no conditions for a sharp rise in short - term spot prices. With a low basis, the upside space above 009 is limited. Under the support of import costs, it is recommended to wait for a callback to go long on M01 [8]

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant information provided Group 2: Core Viewpoints of the Report - This week, the high - sulfur crack spread fluctuated and declined, the near - month spread decreased, and the EW continued to weaken. The 380 8 - 9 month spread weakened to $1.75, the basis weakened and then fluctuated, the FU09 internal - external spread rebounded slightly, and the domestic market had a large amount of delivery goods, maintaining a loose pattern. The Singapore 0.5 crack spread declined slightly, the month spread weakened, and the 8 - 9 month spread fluctuated around $4.5. The LU internal - external spread weakened slightly and then fluctuated, with the 09 around $16. [6][7] - This week, Singapore's on - land inventory increased significantly, the window was under delivery pressure, and the near - month contract was under pressure. Saudi Arabia's shipments increased month - on - month. Recently, fuel oil exports from Iran and Iraq remained at a high level, Egypt's net imports reached a new high. Although the high - sulfur supply and demand were in the peak season, the East - West and internal - external spreads had dropped rapidly. The external low - sulfur valuation was high, and the LU internal - external spread was at a high level. Attention should be paid to the domestic production situation. [7] - The Singapore Hi - 5 spread reached a new high this year, both 380cst and VLSFO weakened. The domestic FU internal - external spread rebounded slightly, the LU valuation was high. Attention could be paid to the short - term valuation regression opportunity of FU - LU, with the risk of continuous weakening of the external 380cst.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided in the content 2. Core View of the Report - The recent theme in the chemical sector is the rectification expectation of plants in operation for over 20 years. The capacity of methanol plants in China in operation for over 20 years accounts for 8%. The expectation of capacity reduction has driven up the chemical market, but the methanol spot price has been slow to follow, and the basis has continued to weaken. Overseas methanol plants are operating at a high level, leading to high pressure on China's imports and a rapid increase in port inventories. For downstream MTO, the maintenance plans of some MTO plants have not been implemented, and attention should be paid to the progress of production reduction in late July. The short - term situation at ports remains weak. In the inland areas, coal - based methanol plants are undergoing short - term centralized maintenance, with the operating rate at a short - term low, but it will gradually recover by the end of the month. The traditional downstream shows strong demand, with MTBE showing stronger - than - expected resilience and acetic acid operating at a stable rate. Inland methanol plant inventories have decreased again, indicating that the inland market is stronger than the port market [3] 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Methanol Basis & Inter - period Structure - The report presents multiple figures related to methanol basis and inter - period spreads, including the basis between methanol in different regions (such as Taicang, Lunan, Inner Mongolia North Line, etc.) and the main futures contract, as well as the spreads between different methanol futures contracts (e.g., 01 - 05, 05 - 09, 09 - 01). The data sources are from Flush and Huatai Futures Research Institute [7][9][22] 3.2 Methanol Production Profit, MTO Profit, and Import Profit - Figures show the production profit of coal - based methanol in Inner Mongolia, the MTO profit in East China (PP&EG type), and import spreads such as the difference between Taicang methanol and CFR China, as well as the price differences between CFR Southeast Asia, FOB US Gulf, FOB Rotterdam and CFR China. The data sources are from Flush and Huatai Futures Research Institute [26][27][31] 3.3 Methanol Operation and Inventory - The total port inventory of methanol, MTO/P operating rate (including integrated plants), inland factory sample inventory, and China's methanol operating rate (including integrated plants) are presented in figures. The data sources are from Flush and Huatai Futures Research Institute [34][35][37] 3.4 Regional Price Differences - Figures show regional price differences such as the difference between northern Shandong and the northwest, the difference between Taicang and Inner Mongolia, and the differences between other regions.

1. Report Industry Investment Ratings No industry investment ratings are provided in the reports. 2. Core Views of Each Report 2.1. Fats and Oils - Palm oil: Affected by production growth and export decline, the crude palm oil futures may face downward pressure after oscillating around the annual line, testing the support at 4,100 ringgit. Domestically, there is a risk of weakness for domestic palm oil futures, with attention on the support around 8,800 yuan [1]. - Soybean oil: In August, weather impacts on soybean crops increase. Although the latest US soybean good - rate is high, CBOT soybeans may fluctuate narrowly. Domestically, short - term basis quotes may be under pressure, but long - term support exists [1]. 2.2. Sugar - Brazilian sugar production in the second half of June was lower than expected. If the sugar - to - ethanol ratio is adjusted, production may not meet expectations. The short - term bottom of raw sugar prices may appear, but a bearish view is maintained considering the overall production increase. The domestic sugar market is expected to be marginally looser, with a bearish view after rebounds [3][4]. 2.3. Cotton - The demand side of the cotton industry is still weak, but the rising cotton price has led to a follow - up increase in yarn prices. The supply side faces some pressure from the sale of old cotton stocks, but the tight inventory situation is difficult to resolve before new cotton is listed. Short - term domestic cotton prices may oscillate at a high level, and face pressure after new cotton is listed [7]. 2.4. Eggs - The supply of eggs is sufficient, but high - temperature weather has reduced egg weight and laying rates, causing a shortage of large - sized eggs. With the start of the peak demand season, egg prices are expected to rise slightly this week and then stabilize [9]. 2.5. Corn - The corn auction on July 22 had a 27%成交 rate, and the market has digested the news. Supply is tightening due to factors like reduced willingness to sell and bad weather. Demand has some resilience. In the medium - term, supply is tight and demand is increasing, supporting prices. In the short - term, the market is stable, and the futures may oscillate strongly but with limited space [12][13]. 2.6. Meal - US soybeans are bottom - oscillating, and the expected August drought in the main production areas provides support. Brazilian soybeans are firm, but Chinese purchases of US soybeans may suppress Brazilian premiums. Currently, domestic soybean and soybean meal inventories are rising, and the basis is low. After October, the continuity of soybean arrivals is uncertain, and a cautious bullish operation is recommended [16]. 2.7. Pigs - The spot price of pigs is oscillating. Secondary fattening enthusiasm has declined, and market demand is weak, so prices are weak. There is no basis for a sharp decline, but the upside is limited. The futures are affected by macro funds, and caution is needed when chasing up prices in the far - month contracts [19]. 3. Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 3.1.
