Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core Viewpoints - For PTA, the near - end TA partial device load reduction, start - up slightly decreased, polyester load increased month - on - month, inventory slightly accumulated, basis strengthened month - on - month, and spot processing fee slightly repaired. With the subsequent low processing fee for a long time and better terminal data, the processing fee center may gradually repair [2]. - For MEG, the near - end domestic oil - based restarted, load increased month - on - month, overseas partial devices restarted, port inventory decreased month - on - month at the beginning of next week, but the arrival forecast increased during the week, basis weakened month - on - month, and coal - based benefits and price ratios decreased. In the long - term, it is in a continuous inventory accumulation stage with a bearish pattern, but there may be partial negative feedback on the supply side after the weakening of coal - based benefits and price ratios [2]. - For polyester staple fiber, the near - end Fujian Shanli restarted, start - up increased, production and sales weakened month - on - month, and inventory remained stable. With the overall inapparent improvement in the benefits and start - up of the polyester yarn end, high export growth of staple fiber itself, and high start - up due to good spot benefits, the overall inventory pressure is limited, and attention should be paid to the opportunity of expanding the spread and the situation of warehouse receipts [2]. - For natural rubber and 20 - number rubber, the national explicit inventory remained stable at a relatively low absolute level, and the Thai cup - lump rubber price remained stable with rainfall affecting tapping. The strategy is to wait and see [2].

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No investment rating information is provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoints - **PTA**: The low processing fee for TA has persisted for a long time, and the improvement in terminal data supports the continuation of polyester operation. With limited new capacity coming online in the far - month, the processing fee center may gradually recover [3]. - **MEG**: EG has entered a continuous inventory accumulation phase due to high existing capacity and new plant commissioning. However, there may be some negative feedback on the supply side after the weakening of coal - based efficiency and price ratio. Attention should be paid to the opportunity of selling put options near the coal - based cost [9]. - **Polyester Staple Fiber**: The operation of staple fiber plants is stable, and inventory is decreasing. Given the limited overall inventory pressure, low processing fees on the futures market, high export volume, and good spot efficiency, attention should be paid to the opportunity of expanding spreads on dips and the situation of warehouse receipts [9]. - **Natural Rubber & 20 - grade Rubber**: The national explicit inventory is stable at a relatively low level, and the price of Thai cup lump rubber is stable. The current strategy is to wait and see [9]. 3.

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided on the report industry investment rating. 2. Report's Core View - For PTA, the low processing fee has persisted for a long time, and the improvement in terminal data supports the continuation of polyester operation. With limited future production capacity, the processing fee center may gradually recover [3][4]. - For MEG, the inventory is accumulating, but there may be negative feedback on the supply side due to the weakening of coal - based efficiency and comparison. Attention should be paid to the opportunity of selling put options near the coal - based cost [8]. - For polyester staple fiber, the overall efficiency and operation of polyester yarn have not improved significantly. With high exports and good spot efficiency, the inventory pressure is limited. Attention should be paid to the opportunity of expanding the spread at low prices and the situation of warehouse receipts [8]. - For natural rubber and 20 - number rubber, the national explicit inventory is stable at a relatively low level, and the price of Thai cup - lump rubber is stable. The current strategy is to wait and see [8]. 3.

Group 1: PTA - The price of PTA spot decreased from 4440 on October 13, 2025, to 4340 on October 17, 2025, with a change of -15. The average daily trading basis was 2601(-85). Yisheng New Materials increased the load of its 3.6 million - ton PTA plant. Near - term, some PTA plants increased their loads, and the start - up rate increased slightly. The polyester load remained stable, inventory slightly accumulated, the basis weakened, and the spot processing fee remained low. PX domestic start - up rate declined, some overseas maintenance was implemented, PXN widened, disproportionation and isomerization benefits were stable, and the US - Asia aromatics price difference widened. In the future, polyester has no unexpected performance, TA will gradually enter the inventory accumulation stage, but the current low processing fee has lasted for a long time. Pay attention to additional maintenance. With limited far - month production capacity expansion, the processing fee center may gradually recover [2]. Group 2: MEG - The price of MEG domestic market decreased from 4171 on October 13, 2025, to 4115 on October 17, 2025. Shell's 400,000 - ton MEG plant was under maintenance. Near - term, domestic MEG plants had a mix of maintenance restarts, and the load still increased slightly. Overseas maintenance was implemented, arrivals were stable but shipments were weak. Port inventory continued to accumulate slightly at the beginning of next week, the basis was stable, and coal - based MEG profits and price ratios further shrank. In the future, EG's existing start - up rate has returned to a relatively high level, and with the commissioning of new plants, it will enter a continuous inventory accumulation stage. However, after the weakening of coal - based profits and price ratios, there may be some negative feedback on the supply side. Also, the coal price has strengthened recently. Pay attention to the selling put options near the coal - based cost [2]. Group 3: Polyester Staple Fiber - The price of 1.4D cotton - type polyester staple fiber decreased from 6410 on October 13, 2025, to 6370 on October 17, 2025. The spot price was around 6301, and the market basis was around 11 + 40. Near - term, the plant operation was stable, the start - up rate remained at 94.3%, sales improved month - on - month, and inventory decreased slightly. On the demand side, the start - up rate of polyester yarn increased slightly, both raw material and finished product inventories decreased, and the efficiency improved slightly. In the future, the start - up rate and finished product inventory of polyester yarn have not increased significantly overall. The export of staple fiber itself has maintained high growth. With acceptable spot efficiency, the high start - up rate will be maintained, and the overall inventory pressure is limited. The processing fee on the futures market is not high. Pay attention to the situation of warehouse receipts [2]. Group 4: Natural Rubber & 20 - grade Rubber - The price of US - dollar - denominated Thai standard rubber decreased from 1805 on October 13, 2025, to 1815 on October 17, 2025. The main contradiction is that the national explicit inventory remains stable at a relatively low absolute level, and the price of Thai cup lump rubber remains stable, while rainfall affects rubber tapping. The strategy is to wait and see [2]. Group 5: Styrene - The price of styrene in the domestic market decreased from 6705 on October 13, 2025, to 6495 on October 17, 2025. The price of ethylene (CFR Northeast Asia) remained stable at 785 during this period. The domestic profit of styrene remained at - 453 [2][7].

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content found Group 2: Core Views of the Report PTA - PTA device maintenance led to a slight decline in starting - up, polyester load increased month - on - month, inventory slightly accumulated, and basis remained weak with low - level spot processing fees. PX domestic start - up increased, overseas devices restarted, PXN widened month - on - month, disproportionation efficiency remained stable while isomerization efficiency weakened, and the aromatics price difference between the US and Asia widened. TA may have additional production cuts and production plans, but considering no unexpected performance of polyester, the far - month is expected to accumulate inventory. After the valuation is repaired month - on - month, the far - month processing fee is relatively reasonable. Attention should be paid to additional maintenance situations [1]. MEG - Near - end domestic oil - based start - up remained stable, coal - based restarted, overall load increased to a high level, there was some maintenance overseas, port inventory accumulated significantly at the beginning of next week due to increased arrivals during the holiday and dull shipments, basis strengthened slightly, and the efficiency ratio further shrank. With the existing start - up reaching a relatively high level and new device commissioning, it will enter a continuous inventory - accumulation stage, but after the coal - based efficiency and ratio weaken, there may be some negative feedback on the supply side. Attention should be paid to the support of coal - based cost at the lower end [7]. Polyester Staple Fiber - Some devices were under maintenance, some increased load, start - up decreased to 94.3%, sales volume decreased month - on - month, and inventory increased month - on - month. On the demand side, the start - up of polyester yarn remained stable, raw material stocking increased, finished product inventory remained stable month - on - month, and efficiency was weak. Considering the high - level finished product inventory of polyester yarn, the speed of increasing load may slow down. Although the spot efficiency of staple fiber is good and start - up remains high, inventory pressure is limited, and processing fees are expected to fluctuate [7]. Natural Rubber - National warehouse inventory remained stable at an absolute level, Thai cup - lump rubber price remained stable, and there was rainfall. The strategy is to wait and see [7]. Group 3: Summary According to Related Catalogs PTA - From January to October 2025, data such as PTA spot price, PX price, PTA processing fee, polyester load, etc. were presented. For example, on January 1st, 2025, the PTA spot price was 4490, and the PX price was 6595. The average daily spot basis was 2601(- 83). Yisheng New Materials increased its load by 3.6 million tons [1]. MEG - From October 10th to 16th, 2025, data on MEG price, profit, load, and inventory were provided. For example, on October 10th, 2025, the MEG domestic price was 4206, and the port inventory was 77.7. The basis was around 01(+ 64). Shell's 400,000 - ton device was under maintenance [7]. Polyester Staple Fiber - From October 1st to 1st (it seems there is a data presentation problem here, presumably multiple days in October), data on staple fiber price, profit, load, etc. were given. The spot price was around 6302, and the market basis was around 11 + 40. Xinjiang Jianshanli was under maintenance, and Zhejiang Huaxing increased its load, with start - up decreasing to 94.3% [7]. Natural Rubber - From October 1st to 16th, 2025, data on natural rubber price, processing profit, and price difference were presented. For example, on October 1st, 2025, the Shanghai full - latex price was 14730. The strategy is to wait and see [7]. Styrene - related Products - From October 10th to 16th, 2025, data on the price of ethylene, pure benzene, styrene, and their production profits and start - up rates were provided. For example, on October 10th, 2025, the pure benzene (CFR China) price was 5740 [7].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant information provided 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - For PTA, after the recent TA maintenance, the start - up rate decreased, polyester load remained stable, inventory decreased, basis weakened, and spot processing fees weakened. In the future, TA unexpected maintenance may increase, polyester start - up will continue to rise, and PX supply will gradually return. There is an opportunity to expand processing fees by buying at low prices, and attention should be paid to the restart progress of Hengli Huizhou [2]. - For MEG, the recent domestic oil - based production increased load, coal - based start - up decreased slightly, overall load increased, overseas unexpected maintenance increased, port inventory decreased, and basis strengthened. In the short term, EG port inventory is expected to continue to decrease, but in the long - term, there is an expectation of inventory accumulation. It is expected to fluctuate widely, and attention should be paid to the restart progress of Satellite and Xinrun [2]. - For polyester staple fiber, the start - up rate increased slightly, sales weakened, and inventory remained stable. The demand side has a slowdown in the speed of increasing load after the accumulation of finished product inventory. The start - up rate is expected to remain high, and the processing fee is expected to fluctuate [2]. - For natural rubber and 20 - number rubber, the national explicit inventory remained stable, the Thai cup - lump price remained stable, and rainfall affected rubber tapping. The strategy is to wait and see [2]. 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Ratings No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report - PTA: TA has entered the inventory accumulation stage, but the absolute inventory level is not high, and the slope depends on the weakening degree of the polyester off - season. The spot processing fee has been compressed to a relatively low level. With the low raw material inventory in the filament downstream and continuous destocking of bottle chips, the polyester start - up is expected to gradually stabilize. There is an opportunity to expand the far - month processing fee at low prices. The overall destocking trend of PX has not reversed, and the lower limit of valuation is still guaranteed [2]. - MEG: The unexpected domestic reduction of EG has increased, and overseas Saudi Arabian plants have shut down again. With the decline in phased arrivals, port inventories are expected to continue to decline. The current good situation is expected to be maintained in the short term, and the far - month valuation will rise accordingly. It is expected to be in a volatile state. Attention should be paid to the restart progress of satellite and Saudi plants [4]. - Polyester Staple Fiber: The start - up of staple fiber has decreased, and sales have weakened slightly. Inventory has decreased month - on - month. The demand side is weak, but exports are growing at a high speed. The current processing fee is relatively neutral, and it is expected to be in a volatile state. Attention should be paid to the change of warehouse receipts [4]. - Natural Rubber & 20 - number Rubber: The national explicit inventory remains stable at a relatively low absolute level, but there is no seasonal destocking. The price of Thai cup rubber has rebounded due to rainfall affecting tapping. The recommended strategy is to wait and see [4]. - Styrene: The daily prices of related products such as styrene have changed. The overall situation needs further observation based on price and profit changes [4]. 3. Summaries According to Relevant Catalogs PTA - **Price and Index Changes**: From July 15 - 21, 2025, the price of PTA internal - market spot increased by 5, the PTA processing fee decreased by 8, and the polyester gross profit increased by 3. The PTA balance load and PTA load remained unchanged at 81.3 and 79.7 respectively. The number of warehouse receipts + valid forecasts decreased by 25, and the TA basis decreased by 0.30 [2]. - **Device Changes**: No PTA device changes were reported [2]. - **Weekly Outlook**: Proximal TA's weekly start - up was basically stable, polyester load continued to decline, and inventory increased slightly. The basis rebounded after the weakening of liquidity impact, and the spot processing fee was slightly repaired. In the future, TA is in the inventory - accumulation stage, and attention should be paid to the opportunity of expanding the far - month processing fee at low prices [2]. MEG - **Price and Index Changes**: From July 15 - 21, 2025, the MEG external - market price increased by 3, the MEG internal - market price increased by 37, and the MEG coal - based profit increased by 37.
