Report's Industry Investment Rating No investment rating mentioned in the report. Core Viewpoints of the Report - For the corn market, the US corn is in the export peak season with high short - term supply pressure, but good export conditions support the price.

Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Core Viewpoints - For corn, the US corn is in the export peak season with high short - term supply pressure, but the reduction of the US corn carry - over inventory forecast by USDA supports the price.

The corn futures price has fallen from its high recently, so short - term observation is recommended [2]. - For corn starch, the supply pressure increases due to sufficient raw material supply and rising industry operating rates.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content 2. Core Viewpoints Corn - The US corn is in the peak export season with high short - term supply pressure. The global and US corn supply - demand is relatively loose, suppressing international corn prices. However, the USDA's downward adjustment of the 2025/26 US corn ending inventory forecast supports US corn prices [2]. - In the domestic Northeast region, the increased acquisition by reserve depots in December supports the market bottom. But high prices limit the purchasing enthusiasm of grain - using enterprises, and the release of grain sources due to the concerns of growers and traders leads to a price correction. In the North China and Huanghuai regions, the price fluctuates slightly due to the changes in the selling enthusiasm of growers and the influence of policy auction news [2]. - The corn futures price has fallen from the high level recently after the previous over - expected rise. It has high short - term volatility, and it is advisable to wait and see [2]. Corn Starch - With the increase in the supply of new - season corn, the industry operating rate has continuously recovered, increasing the supply - side pressure. However, the downstream demand is good, and the inventory of corn starch enterprises has decreased. The starch futures price has fallen synchronously with corn, and it is advisable to wait and see in the short term [3]. 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided 2. Core Views of the Report - For the corn market, the international corn price is suppressed by high supply pressure and relatively loose global and US corn supply - demand. However, the strong US domestic spot market and good export demand support the price. In the domestic market, Northeast China's increased reserve acquisition supports the market bottom, but some farmers' selling enthusiasm and enterprises' wait - and - see lead to a narrowing of the upward range. In North China and the Huang - Huai region, the price fluctuates narrowly. The corn futures price has fallen from a high recently, and short - term observation is recommended [2]. - For the corn starch market, the supply pressure increases due to abundant raw material supply and rising industry operating rate. But the demand is good, and the inventory has decreased. Affected by the fall of corn prices, the starch price has also fallen, and short - term observation is recommended [3]. 3.

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2. Core Views - **Corn**: Globally, the end of the US corn harvest has increased supply pressure, and the relatively loose supply - demand of global and US soybeans has suppressed international corn prices. In China, in the Northeast region, low - temperature storage conditions, farmers' reluctance to sell, and transportation bottlenecks support the bottom price. With rising processing profits and higher operating rates, consumption and procurement by enterprises are increasing, and purchase prices remain strong. In the North China and Huanghuai regions, high mold rates due to rainy weather during the harvest have led to quality issues. After building inventories, feed and processing enterprises adjust prices flexibly. Corn futures are generally strong but have slowed down recently, and caution is advised when chasing the rise [2]. - **Starch**: As new - season corn supply increases, the industry's operating rate rises, increasing supply pressure. However, downstream demand is good, and some customers have switched back to corn starch due to the large increase in tapioca starch prices. The inventory of corn starch enterprises has decreased. Starch futures have also slowed down after a continuous rise, and caution is needed when chasing the rise [3]. 3.

Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided Core Views - For corn, the US corn harvest is nearly complete, leading to high short - term supply pressure. Global and US soybean supply - demand is relatively loose, suppressing international corn prices. In China, Northeast growers are reluctant to sell, and transportation issues support the bottom price. Consumption increases due to better processing profits and higher operating rates, and the purchase price is strong. In North China and Huanghuai, the new - grain quality varies, and the market is less active. Corn futures prices are generally strong, but chasing up is not recommended [2]. - For corn starch, with the increase in new - season corn supply, the industry's operating rate rises, increasing supply pressure. However, downstream demand is good, and the inventory has decreased. Starch futures have risen with the corn market, and short - term observation is recommended [3].
