Report Summary 1) Report Industry Investment Rating - No specific industry investment rating is provided in the report. 2) Core View of the Report - The synthetic rubber market will operate in a short - term oscillation due to the intensification of the contradiction between fundamentals and macro - sentiment. The fundamental pressure has increased significantly, but macro - expectations provide support. The market presents a pattern of increasing supply and demand, with the supply growth rate higher than the demand growth rate, leading to an increase in inventory pressure for cis - butadiene rubber. The high processing profit on the cis - butadiene rubber disk is unsustainable, and the cost side of cis - butadiene rubber is also under pressure. However, there are expectations of a preventive interest rate cut by the Fed and long - term policy support from China's anti - involution policy, which support the market. Overall, the market will oscillate widely within the fundamental valuation range [2][3]. 3) Summary by Relevant Catalogs a.

Report Industry Investment Ratings - No specific industry investment ratings are provided in the report. Core Views - The report provides trend outlooks for various energy - chemical futures, including PX, PTA, MEG, rubber, etc., with different trends such as strong, weak, and neutral [2][10][11]. - For each commodity, the report analyzes factors like cost, supply, demand, and inventory to form views and suggestions on trading strategies [10][11][36]. Summary by Related Catalogs PX, PTA, MEG - **PX**: Cost support is weak, but terminal demand improves, and the 9 - 1 month - spread continues to strengthen. PX may be stronger than oil prices, but the upside space is limited. Attention should be paid to the restart progress of Fuhua Group [10]. - **PTA**: The unilateral price is in a volatile market with limited downside space. The supply is marginally tightened, and the demand improves month - on - month. It is recommended to maintain the 9 - 1 reverse spread [11]. - **MEG**: Import arrivals decrease, and there is marginal destocking. The 9 - 1 month - spread should be operated in the range of - 50 to 0, and the 1 - 5 reverse spread is recommended. The basis strengthens [11]. Rubber - The rubber market is in a weakly volatile trend. The trading volume and open interest of the futures market increase, and the basis and spread show certain changes. The automobile industry has policy support, but there are still limitations to the growth of commercial vehicle production and sales [12][13][15]. Synthetic Rubber - In the short - term, there is a callback, and in the medium - term, it remains range - bound. The inventory of high - cis polybutadiene rubber has decreased. In the short - term, the support from butadiene weakens, while in the medium - term, there are factors supporting the price [16][18]. Asphalt - The shipment is not good, and it is difficult for crude oil to be bullish. The production volume in September is expected to increase, and the factory inventory has accumulated. The market is in a neutral trend [19][33]. LLDPE - It is in a range - bound trend. The cost decreases due to the decline in crude oil prices. The supply pressure increases, but there may be a phased relief in September. The demand will improve gradually, and the inventory provides some support [35][36]. PP - The trend is weak, but short - selling at low levels should be cautious. The cost is weak, the demand has no obvious highlights, and the supply pressure increases. However, there is uncertainty in the cost, and attention should be paid to the low - level support [38][39]. Caustic Soda - It should be treated bullishly, but attention should be paid to the near - month warehouse receipts. The demand is expanding, especially the demand from alumina. The export support is strong, but the weakness of chlorine - consuming downstream may limit the profit expansion [42][43]. Pulp - It is in a volatile trend. The trading volume and open interest of the futures market increase, and the basis strengthens. The international price of pulp is weak, and the demand market is sluggish [45][47]. Glass - The price of the original sheet is stable. The futures price decreases, and the basis weakens. The market trading is average, but the downstream rigid demand has increased slightly [51][52]. Methanol - It is in a volatile trend. The port inventory accumulates, and in the short - term, the 01 contract is weak due to the high inventory. In the medium - term, there are factors supporting the price [54][57]. Urea - In the short - term, it is driven by news, and the upside space is narrowing. The enterprise inventory has increased, and the market speculation is strong. Attention should be paid to the spot trading and speculative sentiment [59][60]. Soda Ash - The spot market changes little. The market is weakly volatile, the supply is high, and the downstream demand is average [62][64]. LPG and Propylene - **LPG**: There is still a risk of a squeeze in the near - month contract. The futures prices of different contracts show certain changes, and the spread also changes [67][68]. - **Propylene**: The cost support is weak. The PDH and other industrial chain operating rates show some changes [68]. PVC - The trend is weak. India's anti - dumping tax on PVC exports from China will affect export competitiveness. The supply is at a high level, the domestic demand is weak, and the inventory accumulates [75]. Fuel Oil and Low - Sulfur Fuel Oil - **Fuel Oil**: It is in a weakly volatile trend with reduced short - term fluctuations. - **Low - Sulfur Fuel Oil**: It is in a narrow - range consolidation, and the spread between high - and low - sulfur spot prices in the external market rebounds slightly [78]. Container Freight Index (European Line) - It is in a volatile consolidation, and it is advisable to hold 10 short positions as appropriate. The futures prices of different contracts change, and the freight rates of European and US - West routes show different trends [80].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content 2. Core Views of the Report - The recent mild policy statements have revised the market's expectations of the "supply - side" reform, cooling market sentiment. The market may return to the fundamental logic of supply - demand, and the coking coal near - month contract faces delivery pressure with short - term price correction pressure [4]. - The strict inspection of over - production in coking coal mines is true, which limits the coking coal开工率 in the second half of the year. The "anti - involution" policy details are yet to be released, and policy expectations will support the overall valuation of commodities. The pre - parade production limit expectation will support the finished product prices. The report is not pessimistic about the medium - to - long - term trend of coal and coke [4]. - In terms of operation, due to the recent sharp fluctuations in the market, unilateral speculation is not recommended. The previously recommended coking coal 9 - 1 reverse spread can consider taking profits, and attention should be paid to the opportunity of expanding the 09 on - disk coking profit [4]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1. Dual - Coking Price Range Forecast - The monthly price range forecast for coking coal is 950 - 1350, with a current 20 - day rolling volatility of 32.68% and a historical percentile of 63.87%. For coke, the monthly price range forecast is 1480 - 1900, with a current 20 - day rolling volatility of 25.37% and a historical percentile of 49.13% [3]. 3.2. Dual - Coking Risk Management Strategy Suggestions - For the arbitrage scenario of inter - month arbitrage with no spot exposure, the recommended strategy is to short the coking coal 9 - 1 spread. The hedging tools are jm2509&jm2601, the trading direction is to sell, and the recommended entry range is (-40, -30) [3]. 3.3. Black Warehouse Receipt Daily Report - On August 4, 2025, compared with August 1, 2025, the warehouse receipt quantities of various black commodities changed. For example, the quantity of rebar decreased by 2394 tons to 82640 tons, the quantity of hot - rolled coil decreased by 1176 tons to 55998 tons, the quantity of coking coal decreased by 500 hands to 0 hands, etc. [3] 3.4. Core Contradictions - The recent policy is mild, which has revised the market's expectations of the "supply - side" reform. The market sentiment has cooled, and the market may return to the supply - demand fundamental logic. The coking coal near - month contract has delivery pressure and short - term price correction pressure. However, the coking coal production is restricted in the second half of the year, and policy expectations support the overall valuation of commodities. The report is not pessimistic about the medium - to - long - term trend of coal and coke [4]. 3.5. Bullish Interpretations - There is still an expectation of "anti - involution" in coal mines, and the mine production increase space in the second half of the year may be limited. - The downstream steel mills have good profits, and raw materials have a basis for price increases. - There is room for policy expectation games before the Fourth Plenary Session in October [5]. 3.6. Bearish Interpretations - The import profit of overseas coal has recovered, and there is pressure on subsequent arrivals. - The customs clearance of Mongolian coal has recovered, with more than 1000 trucks per day currently. - The off - balance - sheet inventory of futures and spot flows into the market, pressuring the spot price [5]. 3.7. Coal and Coke Futures Prices - The report provides the coal and coke futures prices on August 4, 2025, August 1, 2025, and July 28, 2025, including coking coal and coke warehouse receipt costs, basis, inter - month spreads, on - disk coking profit, and various ratios such as the main mine - coke ratio, main screw - coke ratio, and main carbon - coal ratio, as well as their daily and weekly changes [6]. 3.8. Coal and Coke Spot Prices - The report shows the coal and coke spot prices on August 4, 2025, August 1, 2025, and July 28, 2025, including the prices of various types of coking coal and coke, their price types, units, and daily and weekly changes, as well as import and export profits and the coking coal/thermal coal ratio [7][8].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No specific industry investment rating is provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The short - term outlook for methanol is weak with oscillations, and it will enter an oscillatory pattern in the medium term. In the short term, a large number of speculative funds have left the market, causing the commodity index to decline from its high, and methanol futures have followed suit. Also, with the strengthening of the basis, the supply of spot goods in the spot market is expected to increase, putting pressure on the supply side. In the medium term, methanol is expected to oscillate. The "anti - involution" policy provides some support for the overall valuation of commodities, and the current fundamentals of methanol are neutral, with the port unloading situation being the key point to watch [4]. - For single - sided trading, it is weak in the short term and oscillatory in the medium term, with an upper pressure range of 2420 - 2430 yuan/ton and a lower support range of 2320 - 2330 yuan/ton [4]. 3.
