Group 1: Report's Investment Rating - No investment rating information provided Group 2: Core Views of the Report - The vegetable oil sector is expected to remain weak in the medium to long - term due to sufficient supply, while the two - meal (soybean meal and rapeseed meal) market will maintain a bottom - oscillating trend in the medium term [2][3][5] Group 3: Summary by Related Catalogs Vegetable Oil Market Performance on January 8 - Soybean oil: The main contract Y2605 closed at 7944 yuan/ton, down 0.18% day - on - day, with an increase of 20895 lots in open interest; the second - main contract Y2609 closed at 7814 yuan/ton, up 0.08% day - on - day, with an increase of 2413 lots in open interest [2] - Palm oil: The main contract P2605 closed at 8612 yuan/ton, up 0.58% day - on - day, with an increase of 326 lots in open interest; the second - main contract P2609 closed at 8500 yuan/ton, up 0.57% day - on - day, with an increase of 1940 lots in open interest [2] - Rapeseed oil: The main contract OI2605 closed at 8956 yuan/ton, down 1.53% day - on - day, with a decrease of 20113 lots in open interest; the second - main contract OI2609 closed at 8943 yuan/ton, down 1.52% day - on - day, with an increase of 977 lots in open interest [2] Important Information - China is willing to cancel tariffs on Canadian rapeseed in exchange for Canada canceling tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles [2] - In November 2025, the U.S. soybean crushing volume was 6.615 million short tons (2.21 billion bushels), lower than the revised 7.09 million short tons in October but higher than 6.3 million short tons in November last year [2] - Indian buyers have locked in large - scale soybean oil purchases from South America from April to July 2026, at 150,000 tons per month [2] - From December 1 - 25, Malaysia's palm oil production decreased by 9.12% month - on - month [2] - From December 1 - 25, Malaysia's palm oil exports increased by 1.6% compared with the same period in November [2] - Indonesia plans to implement the B50 biodiesel mandatory addition program in the second half of 2026 [2] Market Logic - Externally, international crude oil has risen, boosting the strength of U.S. soybean oil. Domestically, soybean oil is under pressure due to negative rapeseed - related news; palm oil is oscillating due to a combination of inventory pressure and strong international crude oil; rapeseed oil has fallen rapidly due to China - Canada negotiation news [2][3] Trading Strategy - Unilateral: Vegetable oils are generally bearish but show some differentiation. Soybean oil is bearish, palm oil is oscillating in the medium term and bearish in the long term, and short positions in rapeseed oil should be held [3] - Arbitrage: Exit the previously concerned strategy of expanding the soybean - palm oil spread [3] Two - Meal (Soybean Meal and Rapeseed Meal) Market Performance on January 8 - Soybean meal: The main contract M2605 closed at 31418 yuan/ton, down 1.03% day - on - day, with an increase of 2782 lots in open interest; the second - main contract M2609 closed at 2875 yuan/ton, down 0.45% day - on - day, with an increase of 3858 lots in open interest [3] - Rapeseed meal: The main contract RM2605 closed at 2358 yuan/ton, down 2.52% day - on - day, with an increase of 64896 lots in open interest; the second - main contract RM2609 closed at 2419 yuan/ton, down 1.87% day - on - day, with an increase of 7102 lots in open interest [3] Important Information - U.S. farmers are expected to increase soybean planting area to 85 million acres in the 2026/2027 season [3][4] - As of December 18, 2025, the U.S. soybean exports to China in the 2025/26 season were 659,000 tons [4] - StoneX predicts that Brazil's soybean production in the 2025/26 season may reach 178.9 million tons [4] - As of January 3, 2026, Brazil's 2025/26 season soybean harvest progress was 0.1% [4] - As of December 30, Argentina's 2025/26 season soybean sowing was 82% complete [4] - Brazil's soybean exports in December 2025 are expected to be 3.38 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 69% [4] Market Logic - Externally, the bottom of U.S. soybeans is supported, but the upside is limited. Domestically, the spot price of soybean meal has increased, while rapeseed meal has been affected by news and has seen a high - level correction [3][4][5] Trading Strategy - Unilateral: The two - meal market should maintain a bottom - oscillating mindset in the medium term and engage in intraday trading [5] - Arbitrage: No arbitrage strategy is proposed for now [5]

Report Industry Investment Rating - No investment rating information is provided in the report. Core Viewpoints - For the vegetable oil sector, the overall rebound strength has decreased, and it is likely to be mainly in a weak oscillation. It is recommended for intraday trading with a long - term bearish mindset [1][3]. - For the two - meal (bean meal and rapeseed meal) sector, there is a low - level rebound, and one should wait for the end of the rebound to find new selling points [3][4]. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Vegetable Oil Market Review - On December 23, the departure of a large number of short - sellers drove the overall rebound of the vegetable oil sector. The closing prices and changes of various contracts are as follows: - Soybean oil: The Y2605 contract closed at 7772 yuan/ton, with a daily - closing - price increase of 0% and a daily reduction of 1716 lots; the Y2609 contract closed at 7718 yuan/ton, with a 0.31% increase and a reduction of 648 lots [1]. - Palm oil: The P2605 contract closed at 8486 yuan/ton, with a 0.86% increase and an increase of 3972 lots; the P2609 contract closed at 8372 yuan/ton, with a 0.89% increase and an increase of 759 lots [1]. - Rapeseed oil: The OI2605 contract closed at 8847 yuan/ton, with a 0.19% decrease and an increase of 4135 lots; the OI2609 contract closed at 8848 yuan/ton, with a 0.23% decrease and an increase of 114 lots [1].

The most actively traded February crude oil futures contract on NYMEX rose 37 cents or 0.64%, settling at $58.38 per barrel [1]. - As of the end of November, the soybean oil inventory of NOPA member companies was 1.513 billion pounds, up 15.95% from the end of October and 39.58% year - on - year. The EPA is expected to finalize the 2026 RVO next year, which pressured the soybean oil market [1]. - Indian buyers have locked in large - scale soybean oil purchases from South America from April to July 2026, at 150,000 tons per month [1]. - From December 1 - 20, Malaysia's palm oil production decreased by 7.15% month - on - month, with the FFB yield down 6.26% and the OER down 0.17% [1]. - Indonesia's B50 implementation has been postponed to the second half of 2026 [1]. - From December 1 - 20, Malaysia's palm oil exports were 851,057 tons, a 2.4% increase from November 1 - 20. Exports to China were 102,000 tons, a decrease of 4,000 tons from the previous month [1]. - In October, Indonesia's palm oil exports were 2.8 million tons, a nearly 3% decline from the same period last year.

Market Logic - Externally, supply concerns and a strong US economy drove the rebound of crude oil, but poor export expectations and the delay of the US biofuel policy pressured US soybean oil. For Malaysian palm oil, despite the rise in international crude oil, overall inventory pressure in Southeast Asia and inactive purchases from major consuming countries led to a lack of rebound momentum [3]. - Domestically, for soybean oil, factory inventory decreased by 25,000 tons, indicating short - term supply shortages, but high oil - mill crushing volumes and operating rates coexisted with cautious purchasing by traders. For palm oil, attention should be paid to whether the rebound of Malaysian palm oil can continue. Domestic palm oil inventory increased, and technically, the 05 contract faced pressure from the 20 - day moving average. For rapeseed oil, the inventory at East China ports continued to decline, and the spot price fluctuated with the market, with the basis showing a narrow - range adjustment [3]. Trading Strategy - Unilateral trading: Exit short - term long positions in vegetable oils, conduct intraday trading for new orders, and maintain a long - term bearish mindset. Provide support and resistance levels for various contracts [3]. - Arbitrage: None available [3]. Two - Meal (Bean Meal and Rapeseed Meal) Market Review - On December 23, the double - meal futures were boosted by the possible conversion of Cofco auctions into targeted sales.

Important Information - The USDA estimates that in the 2026/2027 season, US farmers will reduce corn planting and increase soybean planting to 85 million acres. Previously, S&P Global predicted a 4% increase in US soybean planting in 2026, from 81.1 million acres in 2025 to 84.5 million acres [3]. - On Friday, private exporters reported selling 134,000 tons of soybeans to China for delivery in the 2025/26 season [3]. - As of December 11, 97% of the 2025/26 Brazilian soybean planting was completed, up from 94% a week ago. The stable rainfall was beneficial for the final planting and growth [3][4]. - StoneX predicts that the 2025/26 Brazilian soybean production may reach 178.9 million tons, higher than the USDA's previous estimate of 175 million tons [4]. - As of December 13, the Brazilian soybean planting rate was 94.1%, compared with 90.3% last week, 96.8% in the same period last year, and a five - year average of 90.6% [4]. - ANEC expects Brazil's soybean exports in December to be 3.57 million tons, up from the previous week's estimate of 3.33 million tons [4]. - US farmers welcomed the $12 billion agricultural aid plan but believed it was far from enough to cover the losses of $34 - 44 billion this year [4]. - As of the end of the 51st week of 2025, the domestic imported soybean inventory was 764,600 tons, a decrease of 40,900 tons from last week. The domestic bean meal inventory was 109,200 tons, a 1.38% increase from last week; the contract volume was 467,000 tons, a 28.36% decrease from last week. The domestic imported rapeseed inventory was 6,000 tons, unchanged from last week [3][4]. - On December 19, the planned auction of imported soybeans by Cofco was 550,143.732 tons, with an actual transaction of 179,701.674 tons, a transaction rate of 32.66%, and an average transaction price of 3751 yuan/ton [4]. Market Logic - Externally, the strengthening of international crude oil and the depreciation of the US dollar drove US soybeans to stop falling and stabilize. Domestically, most oil - mill fixed - price quotes remained stable, with individual increases of 10 - 20 yuan/ton. Under high - inventory pressure, traders replenished stocks in a rolling manner, and feed mills maintained safety stocks and made rigid purchases. For rapeseed meal, the supply of high - protein rapeseed meal in North and South China was relatively tight, so the basis quotes rose slightly, and it is expected to have strong support below and fluctuate within a range in the short term [4]. Trading Strategy - Unilateral trading: Wait for the end of the low - level rebound of bean meal and rapeseed meal to find new selling points. Provide support and resistance levels for various contracts [4][5]. - Arbitrage: None available [5].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided in the report 2. Core Viewpoints - For the vegetable oil sector, due to weak external and domestic markets, the rebound failed. It is recommended to hold short positions and not to bottom - fish. For the two - meal sector, in the short term, it is expected to mainly adjust in a range, and intraday short - side operations are recommended, with new short positions added after the support level is broken [1][2][3] 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Vegetable Oil Market Review - On December 19, the vegetable oil sector's rebound failed. The main contract of soybean oil Y2605 closed at 7712 yuan/ton, down 1.15% day - on - day, with an increase of 11,645 lots in open interest; the main contract of palm oil P2605 closed at 8292 yuan/ton, down 0.91% day - on - day, with an increase of 24,579 lots in open interest; the main contract of rapeseed oil OI2605 closed at 8744 yuan/ton, down 2.25% day - on - day, with an increase of 15,683 lots in open interest [1] Important Information - As of the end of November, NOPA member companies' soybean oil inventory was 1.513 billion pounds, up 15.95% from the end of October and 39.58% year - on - year. The EPA is expected to finalize the 2026 RVO next year. Indian buyers have locked in large - scale soybean oil purchases from April to July 2026. Malaysia's palm oil production is expected to exceed 20 million tons this year. Indonesia's B50 implementation is postponed to the second half of 2026. From December 1 - 20, Malaysia's palm oil exports increased by 2.4%. As of the 50th week of 2025, the total inventory of the three major edible oils in China decreased by 4.86% week - on - week [1] Market Logic - Externally, slow exports to China, reduced domestic crushing demand, and the postponement of the US biodiesel policy led to the weak operation of US soybean oil. Poor export data from Malaysia and Indonesia pressured Malaysian palm oil. Domestically, sufficient raw material supply, accelerated auctions by CGS, and the digestion of customs policies led to the decline of domestic vegetable oils [2] Trading Strategy - For single - side trading, hold short positions in vegetable oils, do not bottom - fish or buy basis. Provide pressure and support levels for each contract, such as the Y2605 contract with a pressure level of 8400 and a support level of 7400. No arbitrage strategy is recommended [2] Two - Meal (Soybean Meal and Rapeseed Meal) Market Review - On December 19, due to CGS's accelerated auction rhythm, the two - meal futures were under pressure. The main contract of soybean meal M2605 closed at 2735 yuan/ton, down 0.44% day - on - day, with a decrease of 1374 lots in open interest; the main contract of rapeseed meal RM2605 closed at 2323 yuan/ton, down 0.73% day - on - day, with an increase of 6138 lots in open interest [2] Important Information - In the 2026/2027 season, US farmers are expected to increase soybean planting area to 85 million acres. Private exporters reported soybean sales to China and unknown destinations. As of December 11, the sowing of Brazilian soybeans in the 2025/26 season was 97% complete. StoneX predicted Brazil's soybean output in 2025/26 to reach 178.9 million tons. As of the end of the 50th week of 2025, the inventory of imported soybeans in China increased, while the inventory of imported rapeseed decreased [2][3] Market Logic - Externally, weakening Brazilian soybean premiums and unexpected exports squeezed US soybean export shares, causing US soybeans to continue to fall. Domestically, due to slow de - stocking, the market is cautious. In the short term, Zhengzhou meal is expected to adjust in a range, and it is more sensitive to new topics near the delivery date [3] Trading Strategy - For single - side trading, conduct intraday short - side operations on soybean meal and rapeseed meal, and add new short positions after the support level is broken. Provide pressure and support levels for each contract, such as the M2605 contract with a pressure level of 2858 and a support level of 2660. No arbitrage strategy is recommended [3]
