品 研 2026年1月5日 能化套利范式总结7 陈鑫超 投资咨询从业资格号：Z0020238 1) 终点支持:即顺着终点方向做优化,而非逆着终点方向做路径; 2) 路径大幅偏离下:若发生路径大幅偏离,对冲策略本身逐步转变成单品种矛盾,此时另一腿换成 其自身产业链品种会相对合理且安全; 3) 路径演绎上:波动率上仍然关注气体>液体>固体（即波动率大的品种往往会抢跑） 因而在 "做矮子里面拔将军"这件事情的时候要额外关注波动率带来的短期影响; 无论是跨期套利还是对冲套利形式,底层逻辑仍然有效,但由于资金来源多样化以及交易路径变化, 底层逻辑展现形式开始分化,跨期套利上,市场交易预期行情带来月间结构畸形以及熊市正套等进感维行 情，而跨品种对冲套利上由于能化商品逻辑趋于一致,不以终点为锚的路径交易反而事倍功半,而顺着终 点的路径优化策略仍然是当下最优解。 请务必阅读正文之后的免责条款部分 1 chenxinchao@gtht.com 所有商品板块中,能源化工作为以对冲为主要策略载体的板块一直以来是对冲策略的高地。由于成本 端犹动以及网状供需结构,能化板块套利逻辑的开发及总结已经成为市场参与该板块的主要形式。能化板 块 ...

美国实施的关税政策导致COMEX铜市场出现结构性高溢价，引发了全球库存向美国市场的单向转移。 这种非市场化的流动造成了全球库存分布的严重不均衡：美国铜库存处于持续累积状态，而亚洲和欧洲 市场则面临现货供应紧张态势。 为应对关税壁垒，中国铜相关出口结构出现显著转变，从直接出口逐步转向半成品出口或转口贸易。这 种区域性的供需错配不仅抬升了非美地区的现货升水，也明显扩大了跨市场套利空间，导致铜价波动中 枢呈现结构性上升。 国内层面，政策重心从总需求刺激转向产业结构优化，"反内卷"的政策导向推动上游资源行业利润持续 修复。数据显示，2025年前三季度有色金属矿采选业利润同比增长33.30%，这一数据也反映出行业定 价权已实质性向资源供给端回归。宏观流动性宽松与产业政策托底形成合力，共同推升了铜价的金融溢 价水平。 全球铜矿供应面临两大制约：一是矿本身的品质在下降，二是行业的资金投入一直跟不上。长期来看， 全球铜矿平均品位已降至0.42%，导致单位产出的边际成本显著抬升。此外，过去五年行业资本支出持 续处于低位，使得新增产能释放节奏较为缓慢。 矿端短缺已通过加工费迅速传导至冶炼环节。2025年现货加工费一度跌至负值。虽 ...

哈喽，大家好，我是今天这篇财经评论，梳理了白银价格为何在圣诞假期突然加速上涨至72美元？ 12月24日前后，在传统流动性偏弱的圣诞行情中，白银却走出了一轮极不寻常的加速上涨行情。 与黄金偏重避险与货币属性不同，白银的价格弹性更高，既受宏观金融环境影响，也高度依赖市场结构 和实物供需。 在当前全球降息预期强化、美元指数走弱的背景下，白银的"高贝塔"属性被明显放大，成为资金博取弹 性的首选工具。 资金正在押注"非常态行情" 如果说价格是结果，那么资金流向则是过程。 近期，全球白银ETF出现了持续且集中的净流入。数据显示，仅一周内，以实物白银为支撑的ETF就新 增持仓约1530万盎司，接近今年第二高水平。 中国海关数据显示，10月白银出口量超过660吨，创下历史新高，其中相当一部分流向伦敦市场。尽管 近期开始补库，但速度仍难以完全覆盖潜在的交割需求。 三大交易所的"结构性紧张" 全球规模最大的白银ETF——SLV，单周净流入资金接近10亿美元，罕见地超过了同期黄金ETF的吸金 规模。 与此同时，衍生品市场的风险偏好也明显升温。COMEX微型白银期货的成交量升至10月以来高位，期 权市场中，2025年2月到期、执行价 ...

1. Report Industry Investment Rating There is no information provided regarding the industry investment rating in the report. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The platinum and palladium futures are set to be listed on the Guangzhou Futures Exchange on November 27, 2025. The theoretical values of platinum and palladium on the listing day are lower than the benchmark prices, so the prices may initially decline to approach the forward parity structure. However, considering the high trading activity at the beginning of the domestic futures listing, the prices may first rise. In the long - term, the fundamentals of platinum and palladium are differentiated. Platinum has a stable and good fundamental situation and is expected to rise in the medium - to - long term, with a price range of 400 - 480 yuan/gram in the first half of next year. Palladium's demand is expected to remain weak, but its price center may rise slightly, with a price range of 350 - 420 yuan/gram in the first half of next year [2][41]. - Various investment strategies are proposed, including single - side strategies, spot - futures strategies, inter - period strategies, cross - variety strategies, and cross - market strategies [2][3]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Platinum Futures Contract Key Element Analysis - **Contract Details**: Platinum futures will be listed on November 27, 2025. The first batch of listed contracts are PT2606, PT2608, and PT2610, with PT2606 expected to be the most active and the main contract. The listing price of each contract on the first day is 405 yuan/gram. The trading margin level on the listing day is 9% of the contract value, and the daily price limit range is 14% of the benchmark price. If the contract has trading volume, from the next trading day, the trading margin level is 9% of the contract value, and the daily price limit range is 7% of the previous trading day's settlement price. Otherwise, the margin and limit range of the listing day will continue to apply [8]. - **Delivery Product Standards**: The benchmark delivery product of platinum futures requires a purity of not less than 99.95%. The impurity element content is specified according to different forms and sources, with different requirements for domestic and imported platinum ingots, spongy platinum, and powdered platinum [10]. - **Delivery Warehouse Settings and Regions**: Platinum futures have three types of delivery locations: warehouses, production - type factory warehouses, and trading - type factory warehouses. The first batch of factory warehouses and warehouses are all benchmark warehouses without any premium or discount. The maximum capacity of platinum in the Guangzhou Futures Exchange is 50.25 tons, with warehouses accounting for 79.6% and factory warehouses accounting for 20.4%. Factory warehouses are mainly concentrated in Jiangsu and Shanghai, and warehouses are concentrated in Shanghai [14][15]. - **Delivery Brand Settings**: Platinum futures implement a brand - based delivery system. There are 14 domestic registered brands and 26 overseas registered brands. Different brands can deliver different forms of platinum products [18]. 3.2 Palladium Futures Contract Key Element Analysis - **Contract Details**: Palladium futures will be listed on November 27, 2025. The first batch of listed contracts are PD2606, PD2608, and PD2610, with PD2606 expected to be the most active and the main contract. The listing price of each contract on the first day is 365 yuan/gram. The trading margin level on the listing day is 9% of the contract value, and the daily price limit range is 14% of the benchmark price. If the contract has trading volume, from the next trading day, the trading margin level is 9% of the contract value, and the daily price limit range is 7% of the previous trading day's settlement price. Otherwise, the margin and limit range of the listing day will continue to apply [21]. - **Delivery Product Standards**: The benchmark delivery product of palladium futures requires a purity of not less than 99.95%. The impurity element content is specified according to different forms and sources, with different requirements for domestic and imported palladium ingots, spongy palladium, and powdered palladium [24]. - **Delivery Warehouse Settings and Regions**: Palladium futures have three types of delivery locations: warehouses, production - type factory warehouses, and trading - type factory warehouses. The first batch of factory warehouses and warehouses are all benchmark warehouses without any premium or discount. The maximum capacity of palladium in the Guangzhou Futures Exchange is 42.705 tons, with warehouses accounting for 93.67% and factory warehouses accounting for 6.33%. Factory warehouses are mainly concentrated in Yunnan and Gansu, and warehouses are concentrated in Shanghai [27][28]. - **Delivery Brand Settings**: Palladium futures implement a brand - based delivery system. There are 13 domestic registered brands and 24 overseas registered brands. Different brands can deliver different forms of palladium products [29]. 3.3 Platinum and Palladium Futures Investment Outlook - **Single - side Strategy on the Listing Day**: The theoretical values of platinum and palladium on the listing day are lower than the benchmark prices. In the short - term, the prices may decline to approach the forward parity structure. However, considering the high trading activity at the beginning of the domestic futures listing, the prices may first rise. From a fundamental perspective, the prices may show a pattern of rising first and then falling. In the next 12 months, the prices of platinum and palladium are expected to fluctuate narrowly downward. In the medium - to - long term, platinum is expected to rise, with a price range of 400 - 480 yuan/gram in the first half of next year, while palladium's price center may rise slightly, with a price range of 350 - 420 yuan/gram in the first half of next year [2][39][41]. - **Spot - Futures Strategy Cost Calculation**: Taking the strategy of buying spot and selling the 2606 contract as an example, the cost of the platinum spot - futures strategy is about 7.5 yuan/gram, and the cost of the palladium spot - futures strategy is about 6.7 yuan/gram. If relevant opportunities arise, risk - free arbitrage strategies can be considered [43][44]. - **Inter - period Strategy**: Due to the regulation that the platinum and palladium delivery factories in the Guangzhou Futures Exchange will be uniformly cancelled in August each year, the price of the 2608 contract may be under pressure. Therefore, the inter - period strategy can consider buying the 2606 contract and selling the 2610 contract. When the price of PT2610 is about 5.1 yuan/gram higher than PT2606, and the price of PD2610 is about 4.6 yuan/gram higher than PD2606, there are risk - free positive arbitrage opportunities [48]. - **Cross - variety Strategy**: Based on the differentiated fundamentals of platinum and palladium, the cross - variety arbitrage strategy considers going long on platinum and short on palladium. If the platinum - to - palladium ratio approaches 1 after the contract listing, an arbitrage position can be considered, with a target ratio of 1.2 - 1.3 [53]. - **Cross - market Strategy**: There may be positive risk - free arbitrage opportunities in the cross - market part, which can be achieved by selling domestic futures and buying overseas spot forwards. The break - even points of this type of strategy are about 46.2 yuan/gram for platinum and about 42.9 yuan/gram for palladium [62].

The 10 - year TIPS fell to 1.88%, and the 10 - year nominal interest rate rose to 4.23%. The US dollar index was at 98.08.
