Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the document Core Viewpoints of the Report - The soybean meal M2601 is expected to oscillate in the range of 2900 - 2960. The domestic soybean meal may maintain an oscillatory pattern in the short - term, influenced by factors such as the demand turning weak, high import soybean arrivals in October, and the spot price discount [9]. - The soybean A2601 is expected to fluctuate in the range of 3940 - 4040. It is affected by the cost support of imported soybeans, the expected increase in domestic soybean demand, as well as the high arrivals of imported soybeans and the expected increase in the production of new domestic soybeans [11]. - The market focuses on the impact of the US soybean harvest weather and the Sino - US trade tariff game for both soybean meal and soybeans [14][15]. Summary by Directory 1. Daily Prompt - Not provided in the document 2. Recent News - The Sino - US tariff negotiation remains deadlocked, which is a short - term negative for US soybeans. The US soybean market oscillates above the 1000 - point mark, awaiting further guidance on the growth and harvest of US soybeans, the arrival of imported soybeans, and the follow - up of the Sino - US tariff negotiation [13]. - The arrival of imported soybeans in China remains at a relatively high level in October. The inventory of soybean meal in oil mills has declined from a high level in October. The soybean meal has returned to an oscillatory pattern in the short - term [13]. - The decrease in domestic pig - farming profits has led to a low expectation of pig restocking, weakening the demand for soybean meal in October and suppressing the price expectation of soybean meal [13]. 3. Bullish and Bearish Factors Soybean Meal - Bullish factors: slow customs clearance of imported soybeans, low inventory pressure of domestic oil mills' soybean meal, and variable weather in the US soybean - producing areas [14]. - Bearish factors: high total arrivals of imported soybeans in China in October, the harvest and listing of US soybeans, and the continuous expectation of a bumper US soybean harvest [14]. Soybeans - Bullish factors: cost support of imported soybeans for the domestic soybean market, and the expected increase in domestic soybean demand [15]. - Bearish factors: a bumper harvest of Brazilian soybeans and China's increased procurement of Brazilian soybeans, and the expected increase in the production of new domestic soybeans [15]. 4. Fundamental Data - **Global Soybean Supply - Demand Balance Sheet**: From 2015 to 2024, the harvest area, output, and total supply of soybeans generally showed an upward trend, while the inventory - to - consumption ratio fluctuated [32]. - **Domestic Soybean Supply - Demand Balance Sheet**: From 2015 to 2024, the harvest area, output, and import volume of domestic soybeans changed, and the inventory - to - consumption ratio also fluctuated [33]. - **Soybean Meal and Soybean Price and Transaction Data**: The transaction price and volume of soybean meal and soybeans have changed from September 26 to October 14.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In August, the price of soybean meal first rose and then fell. On the cost side, the USDA in August lowered the planting area of US soybeans. Although the yield per unit was raised, the output was still reduced. Meanwhile, the decrease in total demand was less than that in total supply, and the ending stocks were lowered, which was overall bullish for the market. The good rainfall in US soybean - growing areas supported a better pod - setting number this year. The net export sales of US soybeans were average, but China - US trade negotiations continued. With both bullish and bearish factors, US soybeans fluctuated and closed higher. In the domestic market, the recent sufficient arrival of soybeans led to a high operating rate of oil mills, resulting in a loose supply of soybean meal. The weak downstream replenishment also put pressure on the spot price. Both the soybeans and soybean meal of oil mills were in the inventory - building cycle, and the short - term inventory increased. [6] - Currently, the spot market of soybean meal has a loose supply - demand situation, while the futures market is dominated by China - US tariff negotiations. A large amount of imported soybeans will arrive in the third and fourth quarters, ensuring sufficient supply of soybean meal. However, due to the possible impact of China - US tariffs, there is an expectation of a supply - demand gap in the first quarter of next year. The expected reduction in US soybean output and strong crushing demand strengthen the expectation of rising import costs. As the new round of China - US negotiations did not mention the purchase of US soybeans, it is expected that soybean meal will be relatively strong in the short and medium term. In the long term, there is an expectation of an increase in the planting area of Brazilian soybeans, and the soybean procurement in the second quarter of next year is sufficient, so there is still pressure on soybean meal. [6] 3. Summary According to the Directory 3.1 Market Review - As of August 29th, the CBOT soybeans closed at 1053.00 cents per bushel, up 62.75 points from the opening, with a monthly increase of 6.34%.

Report Investment Rating - No investment rating for the industry is provided in the report. Core Views - **Soybean Meal**: The U.S. soybean market is affected by weather and Sino - U.S. tariff negotiations. In China, factors such as high soybean imports in July, efforts to reduce protein content in feed, and weak spot prices are influencing the market. The soybean meal M2509 is expected to trade in the range of 2940 - 3000 [8]. - **Soybeans**: The U.S. soybean market has a bottom - support due to weather uncertainties, but the upside is limited. In China, domestic soybeans are supported by cost - advantage over imports, yet the high import volume and expected domestic yield increase are suppressing the price. The soybean A2509 is expected to trade in the range of 4100 - 4200 [10]. Summary by Directory 1. Daily Tips - Not provided in the given content. 2. Recent News - Sino - U.S. tariff negotiation progress is short - term positive for U.S. soybeans.

However, supply tightness and reduced Sino - U.S. tariff pressure have put the soybean meal market in a short - term weak - oscillation pattern [12]. 3. Bullish and Bearish Factors Soybean Meal - **Bullish**: Slow customs clearance of imported soybeans, low domestic oil - mill soybean meal inventory, and uncertain U.S. soybean - growing weather [13]. - **Bearish**: High July imports of domestic soybeans and expected high yields of South American soybeans [13].
