The cumulative imports from January to June were 1.04 million tons, a year - on - year decrease of 19.7%. The time of import volume arrival is delayed, and the subsequent pressure is still high, but the staggered supply of processed sugar and domestic sugar eases the impact [10]. - **Demand**: The price of processed sugar has gradually stabilized, driving the market trading atmosphere to warm up, accelerating the inventory removal process in production areas, and the overall spot trading is fair [10]. - **Inventory**: The inventory of domestic sugar mills is low, but the social inventory is at a moderately high level. The shipping volume from Brazil in July is low, and the arrival after August is expected to be lower than expected, so the pressure on processed sugar is not large [10]. - **Warehouse Receipts**: As of August 15, the registered sugar warehouse receipts were 17,104, with 0 valid forecasts, a total of 17,104, compared with 18,545 last week [10]. - **Basis**: The basis is upward. The spot prices in various regions are stable, and the recent linkage between futures and spot prices has strengthened, driving the market trading atmosphere to warm up and accelerating the inventory removal process in production areas [10]. - **Profit**: The out - of - quota import cost from Brazil is about 5,578 yuan/ton, with a slight increase, and the out - of - quota import profit remains flat [10]. - **Macro**: Domestically, the economy shows a weak recovery pattern, and there are expectations of more stimulus policies in the fourth quarter.

Report Summary 1. Investment Rating - No investment rating for the industry is provided in the report. 2. Core View - International factors such as good production prospects in major Asian sugar - producing countries, strong production signs in Brazil, and a weak US employment report have put pressure on raw sugar prices. Domestically, the opening of the extra - quota profit window has released import pressure. Although the demand side has some support due to the hot summer and the need for food and beverage industries to stock up, overall, the weakening of the outer - market price drags down the domestic sugar price, and with the continuous opening of the import profit window and strengthened import expectations, the short - term trend is a weak and volatile one [2]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1 Futures Market - The closing price of the futures main contract for sugar is 5718 yuan/ton, down 15 yuan; the main contract position is 205,423 hands, down 25,642 hands; the warehouse receipt quantity is 19,373 sheets, down 70 sheets; the import processing estimated price for Brazilian sugar (within quota) is 4466 yuan/ton, down 14 yuan; for Thai sugar (within quota) is 4542 yuan/ton, down 14 yuan; the import estimated price for Brazilian sugar (outside quota, 50% tariff) and Thai sugar (outside quota, 50% tariff) are both down 18 yuan [2]. 3.2现货市场 - The spot price of white sugar in Kunming is 5865 yuan/ton, down 15 yuan; in Nanning is 6030 yuan/ton, unchanged; in Liuzhou is 6080 yuan/ton, up 50 yuan [2]. 3.3 Upstream Situation - The national sugar - crop sowing area is 1480 thousand hectares, up 60 thousand hectares; the sowing area of sugar - cane in Guangxi is 835.09 thousand hectares, down 12.86 thousand hectares [2]. 3.4 Industry Situation - The national cumulative sugar production is 1116.21 million tons, up 5.49 million tons; the cumulative sugar sales volume is 811.38 million tons, up 86.92 million tons; the national industrial sugar inventory is 304.83 million tons, down 81.43 million tons; the national sugar sales rate is 72.69%, up 7.47 percentage points; the monthly sugar import volume is 420,000 tons, up 70,000 tons; the monthly Brazilian sugar export volume is 335.9 million tons, up 110.24 million tons [2]. 3.5 Downstream Situation - The cumulative year - on - year growth rate of refined sugar production is 16.7%, up 2.6 percentage points; the cumulative year - on - year growth rate of soft - drink production is 2.9%, down 0.1 percentage point [2]. 3.6 Option Market - The implied volatility of at - the - money call options for sugar is 5.86%, down 2.08 percentage points; the implied volatility of at - the - money put options for sugar is 5.86%, down 2.08 percentage points; the 20 - day historical volatility of sugar is 6.22%, up 0.05 percentage points; the 60 - day historical volatility of sugar is 7.05%, down 0.03 percentage points [2]. 3.7 Industry News - In the first half of July, the sugar production in the central - southern region of Brazil increased by 15% year - on - year to 341 million tons; the Pakistani government has ordered the import of 200,000 tons of sugar to stabilize domestic prices and relieve the burden on consumers [2].

Report Summary 1. Investment Rating There is no information about the industry investment rating in the report. 2. Core View The report suggests that the previous short positions and reverse spreads in the sugar market should be cashed in for profit, and then observe the trend of raw sugar before making further decisions. The domestic sugar market's rhythm is different from the overseas market. Although the overall supply pressure is high and the demand is weak, the mismatch in the supply of processed sugar and domestic sugar has alleviated the impact of concentrated listing to some extent. The international sugar market has entered the accelerated production period of the new crushing season in the central - southern region of Brazil, and the double - weekly production data of UNICA will be the key variable affecting market sentiment. The first estimated sugar production in India is significantly lower than market expectations, which may support the raw sugar from a fundamental perspective [9]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1 Weekly Core Points and Strategies - **Supply**: In June 2025, China's sugar imports were 430,000 tons, a month - on - month increase of 28.71% and a year - on - year increase of 1434.86%. The cumulative imports from January to June were 1.04 million tons, a year - on - year decrease of 19.7%. The time for imported sugar to arrive at the port has been postponed, and the subsequent pressure is still high. However, the staggered supply of processed sugar and domestic sugar has alleviated the impact of concentrated listing [9]. - **Demand**: Currently, the price of processed sugar is stable. Yunnan sugar has a cost - performance advantage over processed sugar and has better sales than Guangxi sugar, but the overall market trading is average due to strong wait - and - see sentiment [9]. - **Inventory**: As of the end of May 2025, the national cumulative sugar production was 11.1621 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 1.1989 million tons; the cumulative sugar sales were 8.1138 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 1.521 million tons, and the industrial inventory at the end of May was 3.0483 million tons. The inventory of domestic sugar mills is low, but the social inventory is at a moderately high level, and the subsequent inventory build - up of processed sugar will bring greater pressure [9]. - **Warehouse Receipts**: As of August 1, the number of registered sugar warehouse receipts was 19,443, with 0 valid forecasts, a total of 19,443, compared with 20,642 last week [9][41]. - **Basis**: The spot prices of sugar in Guangxi, Yunnan, and processed sugar mills have generally decreased, which has stimulated some rigid - demand purchases, but the downstream terminals are still in a wait - and - see state, and the overall spot sales volume is average [9]. - **Profit**: The out - of - quota import cost of Brazilian sugar has slightly decreased, and the out - of - quota import profit remains flat [9]. - **Macro**: The previous macro - positive expectations in the domestic market have weakened. The Politburo meeting met market expectations, and there is no additional incremental stimulus. The manufacturing PMI in July was lower than expected, while the non - manufacturing PMI rose slightly. Overseas, the June non - farm payrolls data in the US was significantly revised downwards. The commodity attribute of sugar is bearish in the next few months, while the macro attribute is gradually turning bullish, and the direction of interest rate cuts is certain [9]. - **Strategy**: It is advisable to cash in the profits of short positions and reverse spreads and then observe the trend of raw sugar. If raw sugar can stop falling and rebound and processed sugar prices remain stable, industrial long positions may have a certain willingness to take delivery [9]. 3.2 This Week's Sugar Market News - **Brazil**: In the first half of July, the sugarcane crushing volume in the central - southern region of Brazil was 49.823 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 14.77%; the sugar production was 3.406 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 15.07%. From the beginning of the 2025/26 crushing season to the first half of July, the cumulative sugar production was 15.655 million tons, a year - on - year decrease of 9.22% [14]. - **India**: The Indian Sugar and Bioenergy Manufacturers Association (ISMA) estimated that the sugar production in the 2025/26 crushing season will increase by 18% to about 34.9 million tons, compared with 29.5 million tons in the 2024/25 crushing season [15]. 3.3 Weekly Sugar Data - **Domestic Production**: The sugar production in the 2024 - 2025 season was 11.16 million tons, with a year - on - year increase of 12.03%, slightly lower than expected [20]. - **Domestic Sales**: As of the end of June, the cumulative sugar sales were 7.3834 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 7.34%, and the cumulative sales rate was 74.11%, a year - on - year slowdown of 2.54 percentage points. As of a certain point, the cumulative sales were 8.1138 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 23.07%, and the cumulative sales rate was 72.69%, a year - on - year acceleration of 6.52 percentage points [24][27]. - **Imports**: In June 2025, China's imports of syrup and premixed powder totaled 115,500 tons, a year - on - year decrease of 103,500 tons. From January to June 2025, the cumulative imports were 459,100 tons, a year - on - year decrease of 492,400 tons [34]. - **Import Cost**: The out - of - quota import cost of sugar increased slightly this week [38]. - **Warehouse Receipts**: As of August 1, the number of registered sugar warehouse receipts decreased compared with last week [41].

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided Group 2: Core View of the Report - In the second half of the year, the price difference between imported sugar processing and Guangxi sugar has narrowed, and the import supply is gradually increasing. The spot import profit outside the quota has remained at the highest level in the past five years, with a relatively high valuation. Coupled with the expected increase in domestic planting area in the next crushing season, assuming that the external market price does not rebound significantly, the probability of the Zhengzhou sugar price continuing to decline in the future is relatively high [9] Group 3: Summary of Each Section 3.1 Week - ly Assessment and Strategy Recommendation - **International Market Review**: This week, the raw sugar price fluctuated weakly. As of Friday, the closing price of the ICE raw sugar October contract was reported at 16.20 cents per pound, down 0.08 cents per pound from the previous week, a decrease of 0.49%. In the first half of July, the sugar production in the central - southern main producing area of Brazil increased by 15.07% year - on - year to 3.406 million tons, slightly higher than the market expectation of 3.33 million tons. The estimated net sugar production in India in the 2025/26 season will increase by 3.9 million tons to 30 million tons, slightly lower than the market expectation of 31 - 34 million tons. The number of ships waiting to load sugar at Brazilian ports is 79, and the quantity of sugar waiting to be loaded is 3.5531 million tons. It is estimated that the sugar production in the central - southern region of Brazil in the 2025/26 crushing season will be 40.16 million tons, a slight decrease of 40,000 tons from the previous season [9] - **Domestic Market Review**: This week, the Zhengzhou sugar price decreased with a reduction in positions. As of Friday, the closing price of the Zhengzhou sugar September contract was reported at 5,733 yuan per ton, down 143 yuan per ton from the previous week, an increase of 2.43%.

Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided Core Viewpoints - Internationally, the rainy season brings a good production outlook for major Asian sugar - producing countries, and strong production signs in Brazil lead to a supply - surplus expectation, keeping the raw sugar market price under pressure. However, lower - than - expected ATR in Brazil's central - southern region and potential demand from countries like Pakistan, the Philippines, and Iran provide some support, causing short - term low - level fluctuations. Domestically, there is a strong - weak differentiation in internal and external prices. The opening of the profit window for out - of - quota imports and the release of import pressure, with a significant year - on - year increase in June's sugar imports, suppresses sugar prices. The demand side, due to hot summer weather, has备货 needs in the food and beverage industry and a seasonal consumption recovery in cold drinks, providing some price support. Overall, the slowdown of the decline in the external market weakens its drag on domestic prices, and the domestic peak demand season supports sugar futures prices. But increased imports and the global supply - surplus expectation limit the upside space, resulting in an overall oscillatory trend. It is recommended to wait and see for now [2].

Report Summary 1) Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2) Core Viewpoints - International supply is expected to be loose, suppressing raw sugar prices, but short - term support exists due to Pakistan's import plan and reduced sugar production in Brazil's central - southern region in late June [2]. - In China, there is a divergence in price trends between domestic and foreign markets. The opening of the profit window for out - of - quota imports will release import pressure and suppress sugar prices. However, the summer consumption peak and the demand for food and beverage inventory replenishment provide some support for sugar prices [2]. - Recently, the domestic white sugar price fluctuates repeatedly following raw sugar, but shows stronger performance than the foreign market due to rising domestic demand. In the later period, with both supply and demand being strong, price fluctuations will intensify.
