Core Views of the Report - Crude oil and coal prices are both weak, dragging down the chemical industry. Urea rises against the trend due to improved export expectations. Investors should approach oil - chemical products with an oscillating and weakly - biased mindset, using the 5 - day moving average as a stop - loss point [2][3][4] 3. Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Market Conditions and Views 3.1.1 Crude Oil - Accumulation pressure continues, and geopolitical disturbances should be monitored. API data shows a decline in US crude and gasoline inventories last week. Globally, OPEC+ production increases have led to a counter - seasonal accumulation of on - land crude inventories. Oil prices are expected to oscillate weakly, with attention to short - term disturbances from Russia - Ukraine negotiations [8] 3.1.2 Asphalt - The asphalt futures price of 3500 may change from support to pressure. EIA has significantly lowered oil price expectations, and the end of the Russia - Ukraine conflict may drive the geopolitical premium to decline. The supply tension has eased, and demand remains unoptimistic [9] 3.1.3 High - Sulfur Fuel Oil - Despite the attack on Russian refineries, high - sulfur fuel oil oscillates weakly. EIA's adjustment of oil price and production expectations, along with increased supply and weak demand, contribute to the weak trend [10] 3.1.4 Low - Sulfur Fuel Oil - Low - sulfur fuel oil futures prices oscillate weakly following crude oil. It is affected by factors such as shipping demand decline, green energy substitution, and increased supply pressure [11] 3.1.5 Methanol - Cautiously monitor long - position opportunities in the far - month contracts. Methanol futures prices oscillate. The port inventory has increased, and downstream olefins prices are under pressure. There may be long - position opportunities in the far - month due to expected overseas shutdowns [21][22] 3.1.6 Urea - Export expectations are good, but transactions are cautious. The improvement in China - India relations promotes the upward trend. The market sentiment was temporarily stagnant but was reignited by the news of China - India relations [22][23] 3.1.7 Ethylene Glycol - Supply and demand both increase, and there is support at the lower price level. Domestic large - scale plants are restarting and having short - term shutdowns, and demand is in the transition period between peak and off - peak seasons [16] 3.1.8 PX - There is short - term support at the lower level. The supply - demand pattern is relatively stable, and downstream demand shows signs of improvement [12] 3.1.9 PTA - It is looking for a direction in oscillation. The short - term trading logic lies in ongoing supply maintenance and expected demand improvement [13] 3.1.10 Short - Fiber - It fluctuates following upstream costs. Supply - demand fundamentals change little, and sales have slightly recovered, but the increase is limited [18] 3.1.11 Bottle Chips - There is some cost support, but its own driving force is limited. The price mainly follows raw materials, and the processing fee is compressed [19] 3.1.12 PP - Good refinery profits suppress valuation, and PP oscillates weakly. Oil prices are weak, propane prices are low, supply is increasing, and demand is in the peak - off - peak transition period [25][26] 3.1.13 Propylene (PL) - PL follows PP to oscillate and decline in the short term. Supply is abundant, but downstream follow - up is insufficient [26] 3.1.14 Plastic - Fundamental support is limited, and plastic oscillates weakly. Oil prices are weak, and the supply side has pressure [24] 3.1.15 Pure Benzene - It has insufficient driving force and oscillates within a narrow range. Geopolitical tensions are easing, and downstream profits are declining [14][15] 3.1.16 Styrene - Peak - season stocking has begun, but demand is limited. There are some positive factors such as improved pure benzene market and downstream stocking, but negative factors like increased supply and limited demand are more prominent [15][16] 3.1.17 PVC - Anti - dumping measures pressure demand, and PVC is cautiously weak. Upstream autumn maintenance may reduce production, and export expectations are under pressure [29] 3.1.18 Caustic Soda - Market sentiment is poor, dragging down the price. Fundamentals are marginally improving, but market sentiment is still affected [30] 3.2 Variety Data Monitoring 3.2.1 Energy and Chemical Daily Indicator Monitoring - The report provides data on inter - period spreads, basis, and inter - variety spreads of various varieties such as Brent, Dubai, PX, PTA, etc. [32][33][35] 3.2.2 Chemical Basis and Spread Monitoring - Although the report mentions monitoring for methanol, urea, styrene, etc., specific data summaries are not provided in the given text [36][48][60]

Market conditions are influenced by multiple factors such as macroeconomic data (e.g., US non - farm payrolls), geopolitical situations (e.g., Middle East tensions), supply - demand relationships, and policy changes. Different commodities show different trends, including upward, downward, and oscillating movements, and investors are advised to pay attention to relevant factors for each commodity [1]. Summary by Industry Macroeconomic and Financial - **Stock Index**: In the short term, market trading volume gradually shrinks slightly, and with mediocre domestic and international positive factors, there is resistance to upward breakthrough, and it may show an oscillating pattern. Follow - up attention should be paid to macro - incremental information for direction guidance [1] - **Treasury Bond**: Asset shortage and weak economy are beneficial to bond futures, but the central bank has recently warned of interest - rate risks, suppressing the upward space [1] - **Precious Metals (Gold and Silver)**: Market uncertainties remain. Gold and silver prices are expected to oscillate mainly. Attention should be paid to tariff developments [1] Non - ferrous Metals - **Base Metals**: Due to factors such as the cooling of the Fed's interest - rate cut expectations, high prices suppressing downstream demand, and inventory changes, copper, aluminum, alumina, zinc, etc., have downward risks. Nickel prices oscillate, and attention should be paid to supply and macro - changes [1] - **Stainless Steel**: After an oscillating rebound, the sustainability needs to be observed. Attention should be paid to raw material changes and actual steel - mill production [1] - **Industrial Silicon and Polysilicon**: Industrial silicon has a downward risk, and polysilicon is affected by supply - side reform expectations and market sentiment [1] - **Lithium Hydroxide**: Supply has not been reduced, downstream replenishment is mainly by traders, and there is capital gaming. The price oscillates [1] Ferrous Metals - **Steel and Related Products**: Macro uncertainties remain. With raw material price weakening, social inventory slightly declining, and steel - mill production reduction news boosting confidence, the market situation is complex. The sustainability of stainless - steel rebound needs to be observed [1] Agricultural Products - **Oils and Fats**: OPEC +'s unexpected production increase causes oils to follow the decline of crude oil. In the long term, international oil demand increases, and the far - month contracts of palm oil are bullish [1] - **Cotton**: In the short term, there are disturbances such as trade negotiations and weather premiums. In the long term, macro uncertainties are strong. Domestic cotton prices are expected to oscillate weakly [1] - **Sugar**: Brazil's sugar production is expected to reach a record high. If crude oil continues to be weak, it may affect Brazil's sugar - making ratio and production [1] - **Corn and Soybeans**: Corn is affected by policy - based grain releases and price differences. Soybeans have different trends for near - and far - month contracts, depending on factors such as supply - demand and trade policies [1] - **Pulp and Logs**: Pulp has low valuation and macro - positive factors. Logs are in the off - season, and supply decline is limited [1] - **Live Pigs**: With the continuous repair of pig inventory, the market shows a certain stability [1] Energy and Chemicals - **Crude Oil and Related Products**: Due to the cooling of the Middle East geopolitical situation and OPEC +'s unexpected production increase, crude oil, fuel oil, etc., have downward risks [1] - **Petrochemical Products**: PTA, ethylene glycol, etc., are affected by factors such as cost, supply - demand, and production - reduction expectations [1] - **Synthetic Rubber**: BR rubber is under pressure due to factors such as OPEC's production increase and high basis [1] - **Plastics and Chemicals**: PE, PVC, caustic soda, etc., show different trends due to factors such as maintenance, demand, and market sentiment [1] - **LPG**: Affected by factors such as price cuts, production increases, and seasonal demand, it has downward space [1] Other - **Container Shipping**: It is expected that the freight rate will reach its peak in mid - July and show an arc - top trend from July to August. The subsequent shipping capacity is relatively sufficient [1]

Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content Core Viewpoint of the Report - Short - term domestic macro - policies are in a complete vacuum, with weak expectations for domestic incremental policies. The recent decline in carbon element prices has led to the collapse of cost support for finished products, and the overall valuation of the black series has decreased, dragging down the iron ore price. Iron ore trading is currently focused on the strong reality. Although demand has basically peaked, the decline slope is gentle, and the supply is continuously increasing but may still show a year - on - year decrease. It is expected that iron ore will remain relatively strong in the short term but will still be affected by the sector [3][4] Summary According to Relevant Catalogs Market Situation - Recently, iron ore has shown relatively strong performance. While rebar and hot - rolled coils have retraced the rebound caused by the easing of Sino - US tariffs, finished products and coking coal have fallen to new lows. The price reduction of carbon elements has prevented a significant compression of blast furnace steel mill profits due to price drops. Under the strong pressure of Sino - US tariffs, domestic exporters have rushed to export to the US to offset the decline in domestic demand. The 90 - day suspension of 24% reciprocal tariffs has intensified the rush - to - export behavior, and the market has revised its expectations of export decline. Iron ore is currently in a situation of high demand, high discount, and inventory depletion, resulting in relatively strong price performance [3] Supply - The current shipment of foreign iron ore has decreased compared to the previous period. Australian shipments have increased while Brazilian shipments have decreased, and the non - mainstream shipments have declined after a pulse. The overall year - on - year decline in foreign ore shipments is narrowing. June is the peak season for foreign ore shipments, and major mines are expected to maintain a steady increase in shipments, with the marginal support from the supply side weakening [3] Demand - Domestic demand is generally at a high level compared to the same period in history. Pig iron production has declined for two consecutive weeks, with the current level at 243.6 (-1.17) thousand tons, and the decline has widened. Although short - term demand has peaked, the current profitability rate of steel mills is relatively high, and the export outlook has been revised upwards. It is expected that pig iron production will decline from a high level but with a gentle slope, and the short - term impact on prices will be small [4] Inventory - The current domestic demand level is still relatively high. It is expected that the port inventory level will remain relatively stable or tend to decline in early June. However, overall, the inventory is at a high level, and the phased de - stocking at a high inventory level cannot provide upward momentum [4]

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core View of the Report - Short - term domestic macro - policies are in a complete vacuum, and the expectation of incremental policies is weak. The decline of carbon elements causes the cost support of finished products to collapse, and the overall valuation of the black series drags down the iron ore price. Iron ore trading focuses on strong reality in the short term. Although demand has basically peaked with a low decline slope, and supply continues to rise but may remain in year - on - year decline, it is expected to remain relatively strong in the short term [2][3]. 3. Summary by Related Catalogs Logic - Last week, iron ore showed relative strength. The prices of rebar and hot - rolled coils retracted most of the gains from the rebound due to the relaxation of Sino - US tariffs on May 12, and coking coal and coke hit new lows. The decline in carbon element prices allowed blast furnace steel mills to avoid a significant profit compression. Under the strong pressure of Sino - US tariffs, domestic exporters rushed to export to hedge the decline in domestic demand. The 90 - day suspension of 24% reciprocal tariffs strengthened the rush - to - export behavior to the US, and the market revised the expectation of export decline. Iron ore is in a pattern of high demand, high discount, and inventory reduction, showing relative strength [2]. Supply - Last week, the shipment of foreign iron ore rebounded significantly on a week - on - week basis, and the year - on - year decline in overall foreign ore shipments tended to narrow. May is the peak season for foreign ore shipments, and mainstream mines are expected to maintain a steady upward shipment trend, with the marginal support of the supply side weakening [2]. Demand - Domestic demand is at a high level in the same historical period. The molten iron output has declined for two consecutive weeks, with this period at 243.6 (-1.77) and the decline rate expanding. Short - term demand has peaked, but the current profitability of steel mills is high and the export expectation has been revised upwards. It is expected that the molten iron output will decline from a high level with a low downward slope, having a small short - term impact on prices [3]. Inventory - The current domestic demand level is still relatively high. It is expected that the port inventory level will remain relatively stable or tend to decline in early June. However, overall, the inventory is at a high level, and the phased de - stocking at a high inventory level is difficult to provide upward momentum [3]. Strategy - It is recommended to use range - bound operations and the 9 - 1 positive spread strategy. The price range of the i2509 contract is 715 - 745 yuan/ton, and the price range of the foreign FE06 contract is 97 - 101 US dollars/ton [3].
