Core View of the Report - The domestic PP market showed a weak and narrow adjustment, with some prices dropping by 20 - 30 yuan/ton. The futures were mainly in a low - level oscillation, suppressing the spot market trading atmosphere. Due to the off - season of demand, downstream new orders were insufficient, and the purchasing enthusiasm was poor, resulting in overall poor trading in the market [2]. 3. Summary by Related Catalogs 3.1 PP Fundamental Data - **Futures Information**: The closing price of PP2509 yesterday was 7067, with a daily decline of 0.13%. The trading volume was 229,429, and the position decreased by 2340 [1]. - **Price Spread Information**: The basis of the 09 contract was - 57 (compared to - 19 the previous day), and the price spread between the 09 - 01 contracts was 0 (compared to 15 the previous day) [1]. - **Important Spot Price Information**: In the North China region, the spot price range was 7020 - 7100 yuan/ton (compared to 7000 - 7100 yuan/ton the previous day); in the East China region, it was 7010 - 7160 yuan/ton (compared to 7050 - 7180 yuan/ton the previous day); in the South China region, it was 7020 - 7200 yuan/ton (compared to 7050 - 7220 yuan/ton the previous day) [1]. 3.2 Spot News - The domestic PP market was weakly adjusted, with some prices falling.

Report Industry Investment Ratings - Crude Oil: ★☆☆ (One star, indicating a bullish bias but limited trading operability) [1] - Fuel Oil: ☆☆☆ (Three white stars, suggesting a relatively balanced short - term trend and poor trading operability, with a recommendation to wait and see) [1] - Low - Sulfur Fuel Oil: ☆☆☆ (Three white stars, similar to fuel oil) [1] - Asphalt: ★☆☆ (One star, bullish bias but limited trading operability) [1] - Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG): ☆☆☆ (Three white stars, balanced short - term trend and poor trading operability) [1] Core Viewpoints - The report maintains a judgment of a moderately bullish trend for crude oil in the third quarter, but the upside space for Brent crude above $70 per barrel is limited. For fuel oil and low - sulfur fuel oil, the unilateral and crack spreads are weakening. The asphalt fundamentals are weakening, and its upside space is restricted. LPG is expected to remain in a low - level oscillation [2][3][4] Summary by Related Categories Crude Oil - Crude oil futures continued to be strong, with the SC08 contract rising 0.54%. Last week, the US EIA crude oil inventory unexpectedly increased by 7.07 million barrels. Although OPEC+ is increasing production and the global oil inventory is accumulating, the peak - season demand for refined oil in the third quarter, the relatively small impact of macro - level tariffs, and the increased frequency of Houthi ship attacks in the Red Sea support the price. The report maintains a judgment of a moderately bullish trend for crude oil in the third quarter, but the upside space for Brent above $70 per barrel is limited [2] Fuel Oil & Low - Sulfur Fuel Oil - Today, crude oil led the rise in refined oil futures, with the strength order being SC>BU>LU>FU. For high - sulfur fuel oil, the demand for ship bunkering and deep - processing is weak, and the demand for power generation in the Middle East and North Africa in summer fails to boost it. For low - sulfur fuel oil, the supply benefit from the diversion effect due to the decline in coking profit has disappeared, and the demand lacks a clear driver, with the crack spread declining [2] Asphalt - In June, the actual refinery output exceeded the production plan by 100,000 tons (+4.3%), and the commercial inventory started to accumulate in late June. In July, the shipment volume of 54 sample refineries decreased slightly month - on - month, and the year - on - year increase in cumulative shipment volume since the beginning of the year dropped from 8% to 7%. The overall demand recovery is expected to be delayed. The asphalt price mainly follows the direction of crude oil, but the weakening fundamentals limit its upside space [3] LPG - The international market supply is generally loose, and the price is stable. The new maintenance last week led to a decline in chemical demand, but the decline in import costs promoted the repair of PDH gross profit. The supply pressure continues in summer, and the upside power of the futures price is limited, so it is expected to remain in a low - level oscillation [4]

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views - The report anticipates that the short - term price of coking coal may weaken. The terminal demand release is limited, affecting the profit compression of some steel mills, which reduces the procurement of coke. After the second round of coke price cuts, some coke enterprises' profit losses intensify, and they have production reduction expectations, slowing down the procurement of raw coal. Currently, they mainly consume in - plant coking coal inventory [2]. - Coke is expected to remain weakly stable in the short term. The continuous decline in coking coal prices further releases the profit margin, and coke enterprises maintain a high operating rate. However, due to two consecutive rounds of price cuts, the profit of coke enterprises narrows. With weak downstream demand, some coke enterprises in the production area have inventory accumulation, and the cost support of coke continues to weaken [5]. 3. Summary by Related Catalogs Daily Views Coking Coal - Fundamental: Mines are operating normally with little output fluctuation.

Coke - Fundamental: The continuous decline in coking coal prices releases profit space, and coke enterprises maintain a high operating rate. However, due to two consecutive rounds of price cuts, profit narrows, and there is no obvious intention to increase production. With weak downstream demand, some coke enterprises in the production area have inventory accumulation [5]. - Basis: The spot market price is 1380, and the basis is 41.5, indicating that the spot price is higher than the futures price [5]. - Inventory: The total sample inventory of steel mills, ports, and independent coke enterprises is 956.8 million tons, an increase of 2.4 million tons from last week [5]. - Market: The 20 - day line is downward, and the price is below the 20 - day line [5]. - Main Position: The main position of coke is net short, and short positions are decreasing [5].
