The predicted annual total consumption of rapeseed oil was 8.05 million tons [22] Three Major Oil Fundamental Analysis - Policy: The Trump administration is considering extending the restrictions on imported raw materials and imported biodiesel. The US restructuring of the Energy Bureau and the revocation of renewable energy - related departments have limited the boost to US biofuel policies. The market is concerned about the progress of China - Canada trade relations. - Abroad: US soybeans are affected by South American weather and US soybean exports. South American weather in southern Brazil and Argentina will be dry before mid - December. Malaysian palm oil inventory in November may rise to a six - and - a - half - year high due to falling exports and record - high production. - Import and Pressing: The oil factory operating rate decreased by 2% from the previous week, and soybean inventory increased. The oil factory rapeseed inventory remained at 0.1 million tons. - Inventory: As of November 28, the coastal rapeseed oil inventory, palm oil factory commercial inventory, and national soybean oil factory inventory all decreased. - Spot: This week, the spot prices of oils showed mixed trends, with palm oil rising 2.13%, rapeseed oil falling 0.89%, and soybean oil falling 0.57% [23] Strategy Recommendation - Short - term: Wait for the MPOB report for palm oil and pay attention to volatility risks; rapeseed oil will fluctuate as Australian rapeseed arrives; soybean oil will have narrow fluctuations due to ample supply. - Medium - to - long - term: Palm oil is expected to stabilize and rebound; closely monitor China - Canada trade relations for rapeseed oil; the cost center of soybean oil is expected to rise [25][26] Next Week's Focus and Risk Warnings - Biofuel policy, China - US and China - Canada economic and trade relations, Malaysian palm oil high - frequency data, and weather [27]

Core Views - For soybeans and related products, pay attention to Sino - US trade negotiations and weather conditions. In the short - term, soybean and soybean meal markets are volatile, and a wait - and - see approach is recommended before the tariff and weather issues are clear. For soybean oil and palm oil, maintain a strategy of buying on dips. Be cautious about the situation of stronger oil and weaker meal in the fourth quarter [2][3][4]. - Rapeseed products are in a weak oscillation state, and the downward space of rapeseed meal is limited. Focus on economic and trade prospects and production area weather [6]. - Corn futures may continue to oscillate weakly. Keep an eye on the supply in the circulation link and the inventory of old grain [7]. - For eggs, near - month futures are weak, while far - month contracts for next year's first half are strong. Be cautious about the pressure of cold - stored eggs leaving the warehouse [9]. 3. Summary by Product Categories 3.1 Soybeans - Domestic soybeans' main contract has a narrow - range oscillation this week, with prices remaining relatively strong. The domestic soybean spot is stable.

Pay attention to the Sino - US trade negotiation next week. The vegetable oil price is affected by the macro - situation, and the capital fluctuation is large at the phased high. Although the short - term supply - demand data of Malaysian palm oil is weak, the data of Indonesia is more optimistic, and the prices of international sunflower oil, palm kernel oil, and coconut oil are strong, which boosts palm oil. Maintain a strategy of buying soybean oil and palm oil on dips. Be cautious about the situation of stronger oil and weaker meal in the fourth quarter [4]. 3.4 Rapeseed Meal & Rapeseed Oil - Rapeseed products are mainly in a weak oscillation state with a small fluctuation range. The weather in the Canadian rapeseed production area has improved, and the fund's net long position continues to decline. The domestic rapeseed demand is expected to slow down, but the downward space of rapeseed meal is limited due to the seasonal support of aquatic feed and the expected low import of rapeseed in the third quarter [6]. 3.5 Corn - Corn futures continue to oscillate weakly. The auction of imported corn by China Grain Reserves Corporation has a 28% transaction rate. The US corn is growing well. The domestic corn market has no major contradictions, and the Dalian corn futures may continue to oscillate weakly [7]. 3.6 Live Pigs - The text about live pigs mainly mentions the situation of corn futures.
