Investment Rating - No investment rating information is provided in the report. 2. Core View - Affected by the decline of international crude oil and BMD palm oil during the May Day holiday, the domestic oils and fats sector was weak, with palm oil leading the decline. The high - frequency data from the Malaysian palm oil producing areas showed an expectation of increased production and inventory, which suppressed the market. The decline in crude oil made the future demand outlook for B40 unclear, causing the center of palm oil prices to shift down, and the soybean - palm oil price spread gradually returned to normal. The expected large volume of imported soybeans in the future may ease the tight supply of soybean oil, and the basis may decline later. Rapeseed oil was strongly affected by import policies, with a significant year - on - year decrease in future purchase forecasts, showing a relatively strong performance. Attention should be paid to policy changes such as tariffs and biodiesel [7]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1 Market Review and Operation Suggestions - **Price Quotes**: In the East China region, the price of first - grade soybean oil was y2509 + 280 from June to September; in the South China region, traders' quotes for rapeseed oil were third - grade rapeseed oil 09 + 40 - 50. The basis quote in East China decreased, with the port price of 24 - degree palm oil at P09 + 580 yuan/ton [7]. - **Market Analysis**: Palm oil faced downward pressure due to expected increased production and inventory in Malaysia and unclear B40 demand. The soybean - palm oil price spread normalized. The supply of soybean oil was expected to ease, and the basis might decline. Rapeseed oil was strong due to import policy impacts [7]. 3.2 Industry News - **Malaysian Palm Oil Production**: The Malaysian Palm Oil Association (MPOA) estimated that Malaysia's palm oil production in April 2025 was 1.73 million tons, a month - on - month increase of 24.62%.
