Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided Core Viewpoints - The high - yield of palm oil in Malaysia and Indonesia suppresses the palm oil market. The current situation of inventory accumulation due to large supply in the short - term may reverse in the fourth quarter and the first quarter of next year. If Indonesia's high - yield does not persist, the de - stocking time may come earlier. However, if Indonesia maintains high - yield, palm oil will remain weak. It is recommended to view the market with an oscillatory perspective and turn to a bullish mindset if there are signals of production decline [11][12][13] Summary by Directory 1. Weekly Assessment and Strategy Recommendation - **Market Overview**: This week, the three major oils showed weak trends. Palm oil was still underweighted by foreign investors, and long positions in other oils also decreased. High - frequency data from palm oil producing areas were average. From November 1st to 15th, Malaysian palm oil yield increased by 1.82% month - on - month, oil extraction rate increased by 0.43%, and production grew by 4.09%. High - frequency exports from November 1st to 20th decreased by 14.1% - 20.5%. Rapeseed oil stocks continued to decline due to the shutdown of most coastal oil mills, but the supply from Russia and Australia limited its upside. Soybean oil mainly followed the market's oscillations [11] - **International Oils**: Based on normal production levels and international demand in previous years, palm oil will enter a rapid de - stocking phase in the first quarter of next year. However, this year's production in Malaysia and Indonesia is larger than the same period last year, and the first quarter is a low - demand season. If Southeast Asian palm oil production remains high, the expected de - stocking may reverse [11] - **Domestic Oils**: This week, the spot basis of domestic oils was stable. Total domestic oil stocks continued to decline, with sufficient supply. As soybean crushing decreased due to lower arrivals, soybean oil production declined. Rapeseed oil stocks continued to decline due to low imports, and palm oil stocks remained stable due to low imports [11] - **Viewpoint Summary**: The high - yield of palm oil in Malaysia and Indonesia suppresses the palm oil market. The short - term inventory accumulation due to large supply may reverse in the fourth quarter and the first quarter of next year. If Indonesia's high - yield does not persist, the de - stocking time may come earlier. However, if Indonesia maintains high - yield, palm oil will remain weak. It is recommended to view the market with an oscillatory perspective and turn to a bullish mindset if there are signals of production decline [11][12][13] 2. Futures and Spot Market - The report presents the basis and seasonal basis charts of palm oil, soybean oil, and rapeseed oil, including the FOB price of Malaysian palm oil, the 01 contract price, and the spot price of different regions, to show the relationship between futures and spot prices [18][20][22][24] 3. Supply Side - **Production and Exports**: The report shows the monthly production and export volume charts of Malaysian and Indonesian palm oil, the weekly arrival and port inventory of soybeans, and the monthly import volume of rapeseed and rapeseed oil to reflect the supply situation of different oils [27][28][29][31] - **Weather in Palm - producing Areas**: The report presents the weighted precipitation charts of Indonesian and Malaysian palm - producing areas and the NINO 3.4 index chart, which may affect palm oil production [33][34] 4.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No investment rating information is provided in the report. 2. Core Views of the Report - The short - term weak reality suppresses the upward momentum of the oil market, and the market is running weakly. It is necessary to wait for the US energy policy and further news about Indonesia's B50 to boost the market. The strategy is mainly to stay on the sidelines. For the far - month P05 contract, there may be an opportunity to go long as palm oil is about to enter the production - reduction season and the Ramadan in Southeast Asia is earlier next year. It is also advisable to be bullish on the expanding spreads between rapeseed - palm and soybean - palm oils and the P1 - 5 reverse spread [2]. - The current core contradictions in the oil market include the digestion of palm oil inventory pressure in producing areas, the uncertainty of the US biodiesel policy, and the game between the weak domestic reality and international expectations [1][2]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Core Contradictions and Strategy Recommendations 3.1.1 Core Contradictions - **Palm oil**: In the October MPOB report, Malaysia's palm oil production increased by over 11%, inventory by over 4%, and exports by over 18%. With the entry into the production - reduction season, the cost - performance of palm oil is expected to increase. The B50 plan in Indonesia has uncertainties, and there are also limitations on production due to the transfer of plantation ownership [1]. - **Soybean and rapeseed oils**: The US biodiesel policy is unclear. The resumption of US soybean purchases may increase domestic supply pressure. The supply of rapeseed oil is expected to be tight due to the less - optimistic China - Canada talks [2]. - **Domestic situation**: The overall supply of the three major domestic oils is sufficient in the short term, but there will be a slow destocking at the end of the year, and there are short - term strength - weakness relationships within the sector [2]. 3.1.2 Trading - Type Strategy Recommendations - **Trend judgment**: Short - term shock adjustment, with the possibility of the price center rising in the medium term. The price ranges are P2601 [8400 - 9000], Y2601 [8000 - 8500], and OI [9300 - 10000]. Pay attention to the far - month rebound opportunity of palm oil [15]. - **Technical analysis**: Go long on the P05 contract on dips, and be bullish on the expanding spreads between rapeseed - palm and soybean - palm oils [15]. - **Basis, monthly spread, and hedging arbitrage strategies**: The basis is expected to be weakly volatile in the short term. Consider a reverse spread for P1 - 5. Be bullish on the expanding spreads between rapeseed - palm and soybean - palm oils [16][17]. 3.1.3 Industry Customer Operation Recommendations - **Price range prediction**: The price range for soybean oil is 8000 - 8500, and for rapeseed oil is 9300 - 10300 [18]. - **Hedging strategies**: Traders with high oil inventories can short soybean oil futures to lock in profits. Refineries with low inventory can buy soybean oil futures to lock in procurement costs. Oil mills can short soybean oil futures to prevent losses from high - inventory imports [20]. 3.2 This Week's Important Information and Next Week's Attention Events 3.2.1 This Week's Important Information - **Positive information**: In October, the US soybean crushing volume far exceeded market expectations, reaching a record high [24]. - **Negative information**: The November USDA report was slightly negative for the US soybean market. Malaysia's palm oil exports from November 1 - 15 decreased, and the inventory increased [25]. - **Spot trading information**: The trading volume of palm oil and soybean oil decreased, while that of rapeseed oil increased [26]. 3.2.2 Next Week's Important Events to Follow - Domestic high - frequency weekly inventory data, high - frequency production and export data of Malaysian palm oil, MPOB data, the progress of the US small refinery exemption re - allocation decision, and the progress of China - Canada trade negotiations [35] 3.3 Disk Interpretation 3.3.1 Domestic Market - **Unilateral trend**: The oil market was mainly in shock this week. Although the market sentiment is bearish, the downward space is limited due to uncertain factors such as the US energy policy and the approaching production - reduction season in producing areas [31]. - **Fund movement**: Positions in palm oil, soybean oil, and rapeseed oil were cautious. Palm oil had a slight increase in short positions from foreign investors and retail investors, and weak long - position confidence. Soybean oil's positions changed little, and foreign short - positions in rapeseed oil decreased slightly. Rapeseed oil's long - positions decreased due to the expected easing of China - Canada relations [32]. - **Monthly spread structure**: The soybean and rapeseed oil markets showed a Back structure, which became shallower this week. The palm oil market had a complex structure, with 05 being the strongest and 09 relatively weak [33][36]. - **Basis structure**: The basis of the main oil contracts continued to be weak due to high domestic inventory and general downstream demand [33]. - **Spread structure**: The spreads between soybean - palm and rapeseed - palm oils strengthened, and the rapeseed - soybean spread rebounded slightly. Rapeseed oil remained strong in the sector, while palm oil was the weakest [53]. 3.3.2 Overseas Market - The overseas market was mainly in shock. The negative factors in palm - oil producing areas were temporarily exhausted. The US soybean market was affected by the slightly negative November USDA report. The cost of US soybeans supported the soybean oil market, and the supply gap of rapeseed oil made it stronger than palm oil [56]. 3.4 Valuation and Profit Analysis 3.4.1 Upstream and Downstream Profit Tracking in the Industry Chain - The POGO and BOHO spreads continued to decline. The price of palm oil in producing areas was weakly volatile, and the production cost of bio - fuel decreased slightly. The cost of producing biodiesel from US soybean oil remained at a multi - year low [64]. 3.4.2 Import and Export Profit Tracking - As China is a net importer of palm oil, the import profit changed slightly with the low - level consolidation of the origin price, and there were few new purchases under the negative basis [67]. 3.5 Supply - Demand and Inventory Deduction 3.5.1 Supply - Side Deduction - **Palm oil**: With the negative basis, traders' purchasing willingness is low. During the production - reduction season at the end of the year, the supply pressure is not expected to increase, and the driving force from the producing areas may be reflected in the 05 contract [72]. - **Soybean oil**: The arrival of raw materials will decline in December, the crushing volume may decrease, and the supply pressure will gradually ease [72]. - **Rapeseed oil**: The current domestic inventory is high, but it will gradually destock in the fourth quarter. If the China - Canada relationship does not ease, there may be a supply shortage from the end of this year to the first quarter of next year [72]. 3.5.2 Demand - Side Deduction - The inventory pressure of the three major oils is high in the short term, and the demand is weak. Although the fourth quarter is a traditional consumption peak season, the boost to the market after the festival stocking is limited, and the overall terminal demand is expected to remain weak [74].

Summary of Palm Oil Industry Conference Call Industry Overview - The palm oil industry is experiencing significant changes due to government policies in Indonesia and China, which are expected to impact supply and demand dynamics in the coming years [2][6][27]. Key Points Indonesian Policies - Indonesia plans to implement the B50 biodiesel policy in the second half of 2026, which is expected to significantly increase palm oil demand. However, short-term capacity additions are limited, potentially leading to a supply gap [2][10]. - The Indonesian government is recovering illegal palm oil plantations, but mismanagement by the military has led to a 30%-60% decrease in yield, with an estimated annual loss of about 4 million tons expected to manifest in 2026 [2][13][30]. - The government is also adjusting tax policies to maintain high revenue levels, which may support domestic industry interests [6][10]. Demand Dynamics - China's biodiesel policy indicates future demand growth potential, with China Aviation Oil planning to implement a B5 aviation kerosene policy, expected to drive an additional 1.5 million tons of demand for palm oil [2][5]. - India is expected to replenish palm oil stocks from December 2025 to January 2026, with monthly purchases of about 420,000 tons, which could support palm oil prices [2][24]. Supply Constraints - Global vegetable oil supply is tight, with a projected reduction of 11.24 million tons in soybean oil exports by 2026. This tight supply situation is expected to persist, supporting palm oil prices [2][12]. - The palm oil price has experienced fluctuations, with a recent decline due to increased production in Malaysia and Indonesia, as well as competition from soybean oil in India [3][19]. Price Trends - Palm oil prices are expected to gradually increase, with projections indicating a low of around 8,000-8,500 CNY per ton in 2025 and a potential high of over 10,000 CNY if the B50 policy is implemented [19][20]. - The price difference between crude palm oil (CPO) and soybean oil has reached 45-50 USD, making CPO a more attractive option for buyers [3][5]. Market Sentiment - The oil market is anticipated to stabilize in the coming months, with a potential upward trend starting around mid-December 2025, influenced by external factors such as U.S. biodiesel policies [4][29]. - The palm oil market is currently in a destocking phase, with Indonesia and Malaysia adjusting their inventories in response to market conditions [23]. Other Considerations - The palm kernel oil (PKO) market is also expected to see price increases due to tight supply conditions, influenced by overall palm fruit processing rates [15][18]. - The U.S. biodiesel blending policy is expected to be implemented in Q1 2026, which will positively impact the palm oil market [25][27]. Conclusion - The palm oil industry is at a critical juncture with various government policies shaping its future. The interplay between supply constraints, demand growth, and price dynamics will be crucial for stakeholders in the coming years [2][6][12][19].

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - The short - term weak reality suppresses the upward momentum of the oil market, and the market is running weakly. It is necessary to wait for the final US energy policy to boost the oil market and further news on Indonesia's B50. It is recommended to stay on the sidelines. Due to palm oil entering the production - reduction season and the early arrival of Ramadan in Southeast Asia next year, there may be an opportunity to go long on the far - month P05. At the same time, the short - term support for rapeseed oil and soybean oil is more obvious, and it is advisable to continue to be bullish on the widening of the rapeseed - palm and soybean - palm spreads and the P1 - 5 reverse spread [1][2]. - The future oil market will mainly focus on the final determination of the US biofuel obligation volume, the supply - demand balance game in palm oil producing areas, and the smooth arrival of US soybeans and the progress of China - Canada relations [10]. Summary by Directory Chapter 1: Core Contradictions and Strategy Recommendations 1.1 Core Contradictions - The core contradiction in the current oil market lies in the supply - demand balance of global oils, with the core drivers mainly in the foreign market. Key contradictions include the digestion of inventory pressure in palm oil producing areas, the uncertainty of the US biodiesel policy, and the game between the weak domestic reality and international expectations [1][2]. 1.2 Trading - Type Strategy Recommendations - **Trend Judgement**: Short - term shock adjustment, with the possibility of the price center rising in the medium term. - **Price Range**: P2601 fluctuates in the range of [8400 - 9000], Y2601 in the range of [8000 - 8500], and OI in the range of [9300 - 10000]. Pay short - term attention to the far - month rebound opportunity of palm oil. - **Technical Analysis**: Unilaterally, one can choose to go long on the P05 contract on dips; for arbitrage, one can go long on the rapeseed - palm and soybean - palm spreads. - **Basis Strategy**: Currently, the basis should be regarded from the perspective of short - term weak shock. - **Calendar Spread Strategy**: Considering the Ramadan in Southeast Asia in the first quarter of next year and Indonesia's B50 plan, palm oil has upward potential, and the P1 - 5 spread can be considered from the perspective of reverse spread. - **Hedging Arbitrage Strategy**: The rapeseed - palm spread and the soybean - palm spread will widen [26]. 1.3 Industry Customer Operation Recommendations - **Price Range Forecast**: The price range of soybean oil is 8000 - 8500, rapeseed oil is 9300 - 10000, and palm oil is 8400 - 9000. - **Hedging Strategy**: Different hedging strategies are recommended for traders, refiners, and oil mills according to their inventory and price expectations [27]. Chapter 2: This Week's Important Information and Next Week's Events to Watch 2.1 This Week's Important Information - **Positive Information**: The US Senate passed a temporary appropriation bill, ending the government shutdown. As of November 7, 2025, the total commercial inventory of the three major oils decreased week - on - week. The October MPOB report showed a significant increase in Malaysian palm oil exports [32]. - **Negative Information**: Malaysian palm oil inventory and production increased in October. Malaysian palm oil exports decreased from November 1 - 10 compared with the same period last month. As of November 7, the national palm oil commercial inventory increased week - on - week [33]. - **Spot Transaction Information**: The transactions of palm oil and soybean oil declined, and there was almost no transaction in rapeseed oil [34]. 2.2 Next Week's Important Events to Watch - Domestic high - frequency weekly inventory data, Malaysian palm oil high - frequency production and export data, MPOB data, the progress of the US small refinery exemption redistribution decision, the progress of China - Canada trade negotiations, and US government information and USDA data [42]. Chapter 3: Market Interpretation 3.1 Price - Volume and Capital Interpretation - **Domestic Market** - **Unilateral Trend**: The oil market was mainly in shock this week. Although the market sentiment turned bearish, the downward space was limited due to uncertain factors such as the US energy policy and the upcoming production - reduction season in producing areas. Attention should be paid to the bottom - fishing opportunity of palm oil [41]. - **Capital Movement**: The positions of key profitable seats in palm oil, soybean oil, and rapeseed oil were cautious. Palm oil foreign and retail investors slightly increased short positions, and long - position confidence was insufficient. The position change of soybean oil was relatively small, and foreign short - position holders slightly reduced positions. Rapeseed oil long - position holders left the market due to the expectation of eased China - Canada relations [41]. - **Basis Structure**: The basis of the main oil contracts continued to grind the bottom this week, and the basis remained weakly due to high domestic inventory and general downstream demand [43]. - **Calendar Spread Structure**: The oil market was differentiated. Soybean oil and rapeseed oil showed a Back structure, which became shallower this week. Palm oil did not have a clear structure, with the spot being the weakest and the 05 contract the strongest, showing a contango structure, but the 09 contract was relatively weak, and the 05 and 09 contracts showed a back structure [43]. - **Spread Structure**: This week, the soybean - palm and rapeseed - palm spreads strengthened, while the rapeseed - soybean spread weakened slightly. This was mainly because there was a lot of negative information in the palm oil market, rapeseed oil lacked clear information, and soybean oil was relatively strong due to the optimistic expectation of China - US trade talks [51]. - **Foreign Market**: The foreign market was mainly in shock this week. The negative factors in palm oil producing areas were temporarily exhausted, and the oil and oilseed sector maintained a shock operation. The cost of US soybeans supported the soybean oil market, and rapeseed oil was stronger than palm oil due to the lack of expectation of eased China - Canada relations [53]. Chapter 4: Valuation and Profit Analysis 4.1 Upstream and Downstream Profit Tracking in the Industry Chain - This week, the POGO and BOHO spreads continued to decline. The production cost of bio - fuels decreased slightly due to the decline in palm oil prices, and the cost of producing biodiesel from US soybean oil remained low due to sufficient global soybean supply [58]. 4.2 Import and Export Profit Tracking - China is a net importer of palm oil. Recently, the cost price decreased slightly due to the decline in origin quotes, but the profit changed little, and there were almost no new purchase orders under the negative basis [60]. Chapter 5: Supply - Demand and Inventory Deduction 5.1 Origin Supply - Demand Balance Sheet Deduction - In October, Malaysian palm oil production and inventory slightly exceeded market expectations, but the negative impact of increased production was offset by a significant increase in exports. The La Nina climate has appeared in the producing areas, and the subsequent impact remains to be observed. After October, it will enter the seasonal production - reduction season, and attention should be paid to the inventory - reduction progress in the producing areas [64]. 5.2 Supply - Side and Deduction - **Palm Oil**: Under the negative basis, traders' purchasing willingness is extremely low, and it is expected that there will be little possibility of new near - month purchase orders. In the fourth quarter, the supply pressure is not expected to increase [66]. - **Soybean Oil**: The current arrival of soybeans is still high, but the supply pressure will gradually weaken from December as the arrival of soybeans decreases [66]. - **Rapeseed Oil**: The current domestic inventory is high, and the downstream demand is limited. However, the inventory will gradually decrease in the fourth quarter. If China - Canada relations do not ease, there may be a supply shortage from the end of this year to the first quarter of next year [66]. 5.3 Demand - Side and Deduction - In the short term, the inventory pressure of the three major oils is large, and the demand is sluggish. Although the fourth quarter is the traditional consumption peak season for oils, the market boost after the festival stocking is limited, and the overall terminal demand for oils remains weak [70].
