Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content Core Viewpoints - The current inventory of laying hens is on an upward trend. As of the end of July, the national monthly inventory of laying hens was about 1.356 billion, with a month - on - month increase of 1.2% and a year - on - year increase of 6.2%. In the spot market, August is still the peak season, and there should be at least one more price increase. Attention should be paid to the pressure around 4.0 - 4.2 yuan. For the futures market, if the spot price fails to resume its upward trend in the next week, the 09 contract may continue to squeeze out the premium. If the spot price rises again, its sustainability needs to be monitored. The 4.0 - 4.2 yuan level in the spot market will still have strong pressure, corresponding to around 3800 in the futures market. The contracts for the fourth quarter are currently at historically low valuations, and long positions can be considered after the current spot price decline, but band operations are recommended [8].

Report Industry Investment Ratings No relevant content provided. Core Views - The A-share market shows a differentiated market sentiment and sector performance, with technology sectors leading the rise and cyclical products leading the decline.

[2] - The WTI crude oil main contract is expected to have a volatile rebound, with support around $63 - $65 per barrel. The overall medium to long-term price center of crude oil is moving down. [3] - Gold prices have dropped to a three - week low. Short - term attention should be paid to the key support level of $3300 per ounce, and the potential boost to risk aversion sentiment from core PCE data and Sino - US trade negotiations should be monitored. [4][5] - After the technical breakdown of the $37.5 support level for silver, there is a tug - of - war around $37. If it breaks below $36.7, it may decline to the $36.3 - $36.5 range. [6] - Most chemical products such as PTA, ethylene glycol, PVC, PP, plastic, etc. are expected to have short - term volatile operations, with attention to relevant influencing factors such as cost, policy, and market sentiment. [7][8][10][11] - For agricultural products, corn, peanut, and cotton futures prices are expected to be weak in the short term, while egg prices have limited downward space, and soybean meal may have a wide - range shock, and soybean oil may be strong in the short term. [18][19][20][21][25][26] - For metals, most metal products such as copper, aluminum, etc. have complex market situations, and different trading strategies are recommended according to different varieties. [27][28] - For black commodities, stainless steel may have a short - term correction, while hot - rolled coils, rebar, and iron ore may have short - term volatile operations, and coking coal and coke may be strong in the short term.

Short - term attention should be paid to the key support level of $3300 per ounce and relevant influencing factors.

The average price in the main production areas is 3.16 yuan/jin, down 0.05 yuan/jin from yesterday; the average price in the main sales areas is 3.45 yuan/jin, unchanged from yesterday. The 09 contract fell 1.45%. The fundamentals this year are similar to those in 2017 and 2020, with relatively large supply. During the plum - rain season, the spot price is at a historical low. However, in the peak summer season, there is an expectation of a significant price increase. If the egg price fails to start rising again in the next week, the 09 contract may see a reduction in premium. This year's egg price may face obvious resistance around 4 - 4.2 yuan. It is advisable to conduct phased rolling operations [8]. 2.
