1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content 2. Core View of the Report - In 2026, the methanol market will maintain a pattern of strong supply and weak demand, with the price center likely to continue moving downward. Although downstream new capacity is still being put into operation at a relatively high rate and methanol demand shows some resilience, the real - estate sector will still be in an adjustment phase, dragging down methanol demand. Meanwhile, domestic planned new methanol capacity is large, imports will remain at a relatively high level, and coal prices will stabilize at a low level. Methanol supply pressure is high, and the overall demand is under pressure [11]. - For trading strategies, short - selling on rallies is recommended, with a pressure level of 2250. For options, selling call options is advised [11]. 3. Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Annual View and Strategy - **Macro and Coal Prices**: The global economic growth rate is slowing down, and the domestic real - estate industry is still in a slump. Coal supply may be restricted under safety supervision policies, thermal coal demand is flat, chemical coal demand increases, and coal prices will mainly remain stable [11]. - **View on Methanol Market**: In 2026, the methanol market will face high supply pressure and weak demand. The price center is likely to continue to decline. The recommended trading strategy is to go short on rallies, with a pressure level of 2250, and sell call options [11]. 3.2 Market Review and Technical Analysis - **Market Review**: In 2025, the methanol price showed a volatile downward trend. From January to June, new domestic methanol capacity was put into operation intensively, and high port inventory and a weak macro - environment led to a downward trend. From June to July, the price rebounded due to low port inventory and external events, and then fell back. From August to the present, a large increase in imports and high port inventory led to a continuous decline [25]. - **Technical Analysis**: The technical trend of methanol is weak, with a pressure level of 2250 and a support level of 1950 [30]. 3.3 Macro and Coal Prices - **Macro**: The global economic growth rate is expected to be 3.2% in 2025 and 3.1% in 2026.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided in the report. 2. Core Views of the Report - The current core contradictions affecting the propylene trend include weak overall chemical sentiment, individual device fluctuations affecting spot prices, sufficient supply of major downstream PP, and strong cost - side propane. The propylene 03 contract is expected to oscillate between 5700 - 6200 yuan/ton. Short - term "anti - involution" and high - energy - consumption control may drive the disk valuation to repair periodically [1][2]. - The near - end trading is affected by the loose fundamentals and the weak PP trend. The far - end trading faces supply - side production expectations, insufficient PP terminal demand, and cost - side supply pressure [5][10]. - The market is in an oscillatory and weak state. Short - term small rebounds may occur under the influence of "anti - involution" and high - energy - consumption control. Attention should be paid to policy implementation and PDH - end maintenance [17]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1 Core Contradictions and Strategy Recommendations 3.1.1 Core Contradictions - Chemical sentiment was weak this week, but there was a low - level rebound on Friday night due to "anti - involution" and high - energy - consumption project control. Spot prices are easily affected by individual device fluctuations, with the basis strengthening significantly. The supply - demand difference has not changed much, with some devices under maintenance and some restarting. The downstream PP supply is sufficient, and the price difference with propylene has shrunk significantly, suppressing the propylene price. The PDH cost is high, and the profit is in a continuous loss state, with rumors of some PDH maintenance [1][2]. 3.1.2 Trading - Type Strategy Recommendations - **Market Positioning**: Oscillatory and weak, with the PL03 price range at 5700 - 6200 yuan/ton. - **Unilateral Strategy**: Overall oscillatory and weak, with possible short - term small rebounds under the influence of "anti - involution" and high - energy - consumption control. Attention should be paid to policy implementation and PDH - end maintenance [17]. - **Basis, Calendar Spread, and Hedging Arbitrage Strategy Recommendations** - **Basis Strategy**: Oscillatory contraction. The basis may shrink from a high level next week [18]. - **Calendar Spread Strategy**: Go short on the far - month contract when the spread is high. High - energy - consumption control has a greater impact on the far - month contract [19]. - **Hedging Arbitrage Strategy**: Expand the PP - PL spread when it is low and wait and see; expand the PL/PG ratio and wait and see [19]. 3.1.3 Industrial Customer Operation Recommendations - **Price Range Forecast**: The propylene price is expected to be between 5700 - 6200 yuan/ton, with a current volatility of 0.1335 and a historical percentage of 0.7448 over three years [21]. - **Hedging Strategy Table**: For inventory management, when the finished - product inventory is high, short - sell propylene futures and sell call options. For procurement management, when the procurement inventory is low, buy propylene futures and sell put options [21]. 3.2 This Week's Important Information and Next Week's Attention Events 3.2.1 This Week's Important Information No specific information provided in the report. 3.2.2 Next Week's Important Events to Follow - On December 16, the US unemployment rate; on December 18, the US CPI year - on - year. - Pay attention to the further implementation of high - energy - consumption project control [25]. 3.3 Disk Interpretation 3.3.1 Price - Volume and Capital Interpretation - **Unilateral Trend and Capital Movement**: Expand the PP05 - PL03 spread and wait and see; conduct a calendar spread trade on PL01 - 03 and consider shorting the far - month contract when the spread is high. "Anti - involution" and high - energy - consumption control have a greater impact on the far - month contract [24]. - **Basis and Calendar Spread Structure**: This week, the propylene 03 basis was 300 yuan/ton, an increase of 128 yuan/ton from last week. The propylene 01 - 03 calendar spread was 286 yuan/ton, an increase of 160 yuan/ton from last week [28]. 3.4 Valuation and Profit Analysis 3.4.1 Upstream Profit This week, the gross profit of major refineries was 645 yuan/ton (+52), and the gross profit of Shandong local refineries was 443 yuan/ton (-12).
