However, OPEC+ decided to increase production in December, which put pressure on oil prices. On November 3, the PX CFR China price was $819 per ton, and the international oil price fluctuated within a range, resulting in limited cost momentum. An expanded device in the Northeast restarted and was in stable production, and the overall demand performance was good [2] - The mainstream negotiation price of polyester bottle chips in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang market was 5680 - 5820 yuan per ton, remaining stable compared with the previous trading day. The positive news was less than expected, the PTA and bottle chip futures fluctuated weakly in a narrow range, the overall market atmosphere was weak, and the downstream purchasing willingness was low [2] Long - Short Logic - PX followed the cost and slightly increased. The PX2601 contract closed at 6640 yuan per ton (up 0.51%), with an intraday trading volume of 174,200 lots. Some PX factories' reforming devices were under maintenance or about to be maintained, but with the supplement of toluene and xylene, the market PX supply remained stable. Overseas devices also operated stably, and there were no unexpected new changes. The call for anti - involution in the industry increased, but in the short term, without actual actions, it had limited impact on PX supply and demand. The PX export volume from South Korea to China in October increased compared with September, and the PX profitability fluctuated and remained stable in the short term, and the industry conference had no substantial impact [2] - The production reduction expectation of PTA was not fulfilled. The TA2601 contract closed at 4596 yuan per ton (up 0.31%), with an intraday trading volume of 638,900 lots. The crude oil market fluctuated strongly, providing cost support for PTA, and the PTA market increased slightly. The spot supply was sufficient, and there were no unexpected device overhauls, and the spot basis slightly decreased. A new 2.7 - million - ton PTA device in East China was tested and produced. It was expected that enterprises would start the new device and shut down the old one later. The production reduction expectation on the supply side failed, and it might be difficult to coordinate a new production reduction plan due to the large amount of shutdown capacity of some major suppliers before. Although domestic demand was good and foreign trade orders improved recently, the overall downstream demand was still weak. Terminal customers were waiting and seeing or required a discount on the polyester product price, and the actual trading volume was small, indicating that the market had poor confidence in the subsequent market. Overall, the supply side could not relieve the pressure only through overhauls or shutdowns [2] - PR followed the cost. The PR2601 contract closed at 5674 yuan per ton (up 0.18%), with an intraday trading volume of 31,900 lots. Some devices on the supply side increased their loads, and the overall market supply was loose. The downstream terminal purchasing sentiment was cautious, and the market demand was weak [2] Trading Strategy - It is expected that PX, PTA, and PR will experience narrow - range fluctuations [2]

Group 1: Industry Investment Rating - No information provided on the industry investment rating Group 2: Core Viewpoints - This week, oil prices rose significantly, reaching the largest single - day increase in many years on Friday with an enlarged intraday amplitude. Geopolitical risks soared due to the Israel - Iran conflict, and the risk of an upward oil price trend remains high as Israel has not proposed conditions to end the attacks and Iran has joined the counter - attack. The threat of Iran closing the Strait of Hormuz is the biggest factor affecting crude oil. Although the actual implementation is difficult, Israel started attacking energy facilities over the weekend. The fundamentals support for prices is weaker than during the 2022 Russia - Ukraine conflict, and the absolute price is expected to fluctuate significantly in the next two weeks [6]. Group 3: Summary by Relevant Catalogs 1. Oil Price Data - From June 9th to 13th, WTI rose by 4.94 to 72.98, BRENT rose by 4.87 to 74.23, and DUBAI rose by 2.52 to 69.93. SC increased by 34.20 to 529.90, and OMAN rose by 3.99 to 72.08. The prices of domestic gasoline increased by 400.00 to 8180, and the difference between domestic gasoline and BRENT increased by 111.00 [3]. 2. Daily News - Germany, France, and the UK are ready to talk with Iran about its nuclear program. Yemen's Houthi rebels attacked Israel. Trump warned Iran and said the US could facilitate an agreement between Iran and Israel. Iran will no longer notify the IAEA in advance about its nuclear activities. Israel's actions against Iran are expected to last for weeks with US acquiescence. The escalation of the Israel - Iran conflict may lead to a qualitative change in the Middle East situation if the US intervenes militarily [3][4]. 3. Regional Fundamentals - In the week ending June 6th, US commercial crude oil inventories (excluding strategic reserves) decreased by 3644000 barrels to 432 million barrels, a 0.84% decline. The US strategic petroleum reserve increased by 237000 barrels to 4021 million barrels, a 0.06% increase. US domestic crude oil production increased by 2000 barrels per day to 1342800 barrels per day. The number of oil drilling rigs decreased by 3 to 439 on June 13th, and the number of fracturing wells decreased by 4 to 182. The EIA gasoline inventory in the US for the week ending June 6th increased by 1504000 barrels. This week, the operating rate of major Chinese refineries increased, while that of Shandong local refineries decreased. The production of gasoline and diesel in China increased, and the sales - to - production ratio of local refineries for gasoline and diesel increased. Gasoline and diesel inventories increased this week. The comprehensive profit of major refineries rebounded, and that of local refineries improved [4][5]. 4. Weekly Views - The geopolitical risk has led to a significant increase in oil prices. The core issue is that Israel has deviated from the negotiation framework and has not proposed conditions to end the attacks. The threat of Iran closing the Strait of Hormuz poses a major risk to oil prices. Fundamentally, global oil inventories are stable, US commercial inventories continue to decline, and refined oil inventories increase. The profits of global refineries have declined this week, and the operating rate of major Chinese refineries has increased significantly. The monthly spreads of the three - market crude oil continue to soar, maintaining the WTI>Brent>Dubai pattern. The fundamentals support for prices is weaker than during the 2022 Russia - Ukraine conflict, and the absolute price is expected to fluctuate significantly in the next two weeks [6].
