1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the report 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The overall driving force of oil prices is limited, and they will continue to fluctuate. The prices of fuel oil, asphalt, polyester, rubber, methanol, polyolefin, and PVC are also expected to maintain a fluctuating trend [1][2][4][5][7][8]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Research Views - **Crude Oil**: On Monday, oil prices moved higher. WTI January contract closed up $0.77 to $59.32 per barrel, a 1.32% increase; Brent February contract closed up $0.79 to $63.17 per barrel, a 1.27% increase; SC2601 closed at 453.6 yuan per barrel, up 0.2 yuan per barrel, a 0.04% increase. OPEC and 8 major non - OPEC oil - producing countries decided to maintain the production plan set in early November and suspend production increases in Q1 2026. The current global economic outlook is relatively stable, and the oil market fundamentals are sound. Overall, the driving force of oil prices is limited, and they will continue to fluctuate [1]. - **Fuel Oil**: On Monday, the main fuel oil contract FU2601 on the Shanghai Futures Exchange rose 0.36% to 2495 yuan per ton, and the low - sulfur fuel oil contract LU2602 rose 0.89% to 3053 yuan per ton. The closure of the East - West arbitrage window is expected to reduce the inflow of low - sulfur arbitrage cargoes to Singapore in December, but the inventory of blending raw materials for 0.5% sulfur marine fuel around Singapore is sufficient, and the inflow of low - sulfur fuel oil from Southeast Asia is increasing. The high - sulfur fuel oil market in December is also expected to face a situation of sufficient supply. The attitude towards oil prices in December is relatively pessimistic, and the absolute prices of FU and LU are expected to remain weak. Attention should be paid to the impact of the Russia - Ukraine situation and the overseas refined oil market on the relative strength of high - and low - sulfur markets [2]. - **Asphalt**: On Monday, the main asphalt contract BU2601 on the Shanghai Futures Exchange rose 0.44% to 2990 yuan per ton. In November, the supply and demand of asphalt were both weak. The total domestic asphalt supply was expected to be 2.53 million tons, a 15.2% month - on - month decrease, and the domestic downstream consumption was 2.74 million tons, a 13.8% month - on - month decrease. In December, the supply will further decrease, but the decline may be relatively limited. The demand in the northern region will drop to a low level, and the winter storage demand will gradually start. The current social inventory is slightly higher than the same period last year, with a certain inventory pressure. In the short term, the asphalt price is expected to fluctuate at a low level [2]. - **Polyester**: TA601 closed at 4762 yuan per ton on the previous day, up 1.32%; EG2601 closed at 3882 yuan per ton, down 0.08%. The inventory of the East China main port area for MEG on December 1 was about 753,000 tons, a 21,000 - ton increase from the previous period. The downstream demand at the end of the year is gradually weakening, but the polyester start - up still has resilience, and the high - level maintenance power is insufficient. The PX price is expected to be under pressure at the end of the year. The TA price is expected to fluctuate with the cost, and the ethylene glycol price is expected to adjust widely [4]. - **Rubber**: On Monday, the main Shanghai rubber contract RU2601 fell 160 yuan per ton to 15250 yuan per ton.

The total inventory of natural rubber in Qingdao increased by 12,600 tons from the previous period. The rubber market has weak supply and demand fundamentals, and the rubber price is expected to fluctuate. Attention should be paid to the resumption of tapping in southern Thailand and the registration of new RU warehouse receipts [5]. - **Methanol**: On Monday, the spot price in Taicang was 2118 yuan per ton. In December, the domestic production is expected to decline slightly, and the import volume will decline from a high level. The overall demand for olefins is expected to increase. The port inventory is expected to enter the destocking stage from mid - December this year to early January next year, driving the methanol price to rebound, but it is expected to have an upper limit, showing a short - term fluctuating and strengthening trend. Attention should be paid to the strategy of going long on methanol and short on polyolefins [5][7]. - **Polyolefin**: On Monday, the mainstream price of East China拉丝 was 6320 - 6500 yuan per ton. In December, the number of newly - added maintenance enterprises will decrease, and the supply will further increase.

In December, the supply is strong and the demand is weak, but the futures price is expected to bottom - fluctuate if the crude oil price remains relatively stable [7]. - **Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)**: On Monday, the PVC market price in East China fluctuated and sorted out. In December, the enterprise maintenance is at a low ebb, and the production will continue to increase. The demand from the real - estate construction for PVC downstream pipes and profiles is limited, and the downstream start - up is expected to continue to decline. The PVC price may tend to bottom - fluctuate [7][8]. 3.2 Daily Data Monitoring - The report provides the daily data monitoring of various energy - chemical products, including spot prices, futures prices, basis, basis rates, price changes, and the quantile of the latest basis rate in historical data for multiple products such as crude oil, liquefied petroleum gas, asphalt, etc. [9] 3.3 Market News - OPEC and 8 major non - OPEC oil - producing countries decided to maintain the production plan set in early November and suspend production increases in Q1 2026 due to seasonal factors. The current global economic outlook is relatively stable, and the oil market fundamentals are sound [11]. - The remarks of US President Trump about closing Venezuela's airspace increased geopolitical uncertainties.

During the recent oil price decline, shale oil production slightly decreased, and refineries increased the diesel output rate due to arbitrage demand. The overall on - balance - sheet inventory remains healthy. OPEC's short - term supply is flat, Libya's exports have quickly recovered, and CPC Terminal's exports remain weak. Russia's exports are not hindered. In the Middle East, satellite data shows that Kuwait's refinery resumed operations earlier than expected, which weakened the strong support for low - sulfur fuel oil. The price trend shows short - term weak fluctuations in August, continued weakness and a bearish trend in September followed by a gradual rebound, a sharp decline and then a rebound in October, and a continued shock followed by a rebound and then a sharp decline in November. The implied volatility of crude oil options fluctuates above the average level. The options open interest PCR is below 0.80, indicating a weak market. The pressure level is 540 and the support level is 430. Suggested strategies include constructing a bearish spread strategy of put options, a short - biased call + put options combination strategy, and a long collar strategy for spot hedging [8]. - **LPG**: The US propane inventory is starting to decline but remains at a historically high level. The cost - end crude oil is under pressure from oversupply on one hand and is disturbed by geopolitical issues on the other hand. The LPG price fluctuated between $62 - 66 this week with frequent ups and downs. The price trend shows a sharp decline in September, a rebound and then a slight shock in October, and a continued bullish trend in November, showing a market situation of an oversold rebound with pressure above. The implied volatility of LPG options has dropped significantly to near the lower - than - average level. The options open interest PCR is around 0.80, indicating a weak market. The pressure level is 4500 and the support level is 4150. Suggested strategies include a short - biased call + put options combination strategy and a long collar strategy for spot hedging [10]. 3.3.2 Alcohol - Related Options - **Methanol**: The port inventory is 136.35 tons, a decrease of 11.58 tons compared to the previous period.

The enterprise inventory is 37.37 tons, an increase of 1.5 tons compared to the previous period, and at a low level compared to the same period last year. The enterprise's pending orders are 23.07 tons, a decrease of 1.56 tons compared to the previous period. The price trend shows a weakening and bearish trend since August, a rebound after a low - level consolidation in September, a continued weak and bearish trend since October, and a decline followed by an increase in November, showing a situation of an oversold rebound with pressure above. The implied volatility of methanol options fluctuates around the historical average level. The options open interest PCR is below 0.60, indicating a weak and volatile market. The pressure level is 2300 and the support level is 2000. Suggested strategies include a bearish spread strategy of put options, a short - biased call + put options combination strategy, and a long collar strategy for spot hedging [10]. - **Ethylene Glycol**: The port inventory is 73.2 tons, unchanged from the previous period. The downstream factory inventory days are 15 days, an increase of 2.2 days compared to the previous period. In the short term, the arrival volume decreased last week, the departure volume is moderately low, and the expected inventory accumulation speed of the port has slowed down. There are more unexpected maintenance of domestic plants, and the expected arrival volume from overseas in December is expected to decrease, which has improved the expected balance sheet of ethylene glycol. The price trend shows a slight weak consolidation in August, a continued weak and bearish trend since September, a weak and bearish decline in October, and a low - level weak shock in November, showing a weak market situation with pressure above. The implied volatility of ethylene glycol options fluctuates around the lower - than - average level. The options open interest PCR is below 0.70, indicating strong short - selling power. The pressure level is 4500 and the support level is 3500. Suggested strategies include a bearish spread strategy of put options, a short - volatility strategy, and a long collar strategy for spot hedging [11]. 3.3.3 Polyolefin - Related Options - **Polypropylene**: The PE production enterprise inventory is 45.4 tons, a decrease of 9.80% compared to the previous period and an increase of 9.77% compared to the same period last year.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - For crude oil, although the geopolitical premium has dissipated and OPEC's production increase is minimal with supply not yet surging, short - term oil prices should not be overly bearish. A low - buy and high - sell range strategy is maintained, but it's advisable to wait and see for now to verify OPEC's export price - support intention when prices fall [3]. - For methanol, with the potential positive impact of Iranian plant shutdowns materializing, the market has stopped falling and stabilized. The short - term bottom is expected to have emerged. However, high supply will limit further upward movement, and the market is likely to shift to a sideways adjustment. It's recommended to wait and see on the single - side and focus on positive spread opportunities for inter - month spreads [4]. - For urea, the price is expected to gradually emerge from the bottom range. With supply remaining high and demand improving, the inventory is decreasing. It's suggested to consider buying at low prices [6][8]. - For rubber, a neutral stance is taken currently. It's recommended to wait and see or engage in short - term trading. Holding a hedging position of buying RU2601 and selling RU2609 is advised [10]. - For PVC, the domestic supply - demand situation is weak, but short - term valuation has dropped to a low level. A mid - term strategy of shorting on rallies is recommended before substantial industry production cuts [14]. - For pure benzene and styrene, the non - integrated profit of styrene is moderately low, with significant upward valuation repair potential. When the inventory reversal point occurs, one can go long on the non - integrated profit of styrene [17]. - For polyethylene, the OPEC + plan to pause production growth in Q1 2026 may lead to a bottoming of crude oil prices. The long - term strategy is to short the LL1 - 5 spread on rallies [20]. - For polypropylene, in a context of weak supply and demand with high inventory pressure, the market may be supported when the supply - surplus situation at the cost end changes in Q1 next year [22]. - For PX, it is expected to experience a slight inventory build - up in December. Attention should be paid to opportunities for going long on dips [25]. - For PTA, supply disruptions are expected to decrease as processing fees stabilize. There are opportunities for going long on dips based on expectations [26][27]. - For ethylene glycol, the supply - demand outlook is weak in the medium term. A strategy of shorting on rallies is recommended [28]. 3.

Report Industry Investment Ratings No information provided in the given content. Core Views Polyolefins - PP shows a pattern of both supply and demand increasing, with reduced maintenance driving supply recovery and a slight reduction in inventory. PE shows increased supply and decreased demand, with ample imported goods and weakening demand except for agricultural films. Overall, the 01 contract still faces significant pressure [2]. Crude Oil - During the US Thanksgiving, trading was light, and the Russia - Ukraine peace talks were uncertain, leading to a slight increase in overnight oil prices. However, due to OPEC+ continuous production increase and record - high US crude oil production, the supply - demand pattern remains weak. Oil prices are expected to continue to fluctuate at a low level, with short - term focus on the $60/barrel support for Brent crude and the results of the Russia - Ukraine talks [4]. Natural Rubber - On the supply side, domestic production areas are gradually entering the production - reducing and cutting - off season, and floods in southern Thailand and Vietnam need time to recede, providing strong cost support. However, the arrival of overseas shipments is increasing seasonally, and inventory accumulation suppresses spot prices. On the demand side, overall demand is weak, and the market mainly digests channel inventory. Natural rubber is expected to enter a range - bound consolidation, with the price likely to weaken if raw material supply is smooth, and to run in the 15000 - 15500 range if supply is restricted [6]. Methanol - In the inland market, Jiutai's maintenance is over, and subsequent domestic production will continue to increase. Currently, marginal inland plants are in the red. In Iran, some plants have started gas - restricted shutdowns, improving market sentiment and strengthening the futures price and basis. It is expected to be volatile and slightly stronger in the short term [8][9]. LPG No specific overall view provided in the given content. Pure Benzene - Styrene - Pure benzene: New production capacity and plant restarts are expected, and although some plants are reducing production, supply remains loose. Downstream demand is mainly for rigid needs, and some loss - making varieties are reducing production. Port inventory is rising, and short - term prices may be dragged down by oil prices. The strategy is to short on rebounds for BZ2603 in the short term. - Styrene: With profit recovery, some plants are increasing production, but planned and unplanned shutdowns and maintenance are also increasing, limiting supply. Downstream demand support is limited, and overseas blending demand is cooling, but there are still export expectations. The short - term supply - demand outlook is improving, but the rebound space is limited. EB01 is expected to fluctuate and consolidate in the short term [13]. Ester Industry Chain - PX: Short - term supply is relatively high, and demand is weak due to PTA plant maintenance and weakening terminal demand. The short - term driver is limited, but the medium - term supply - demand outlook is tight, and it is expected to fluctuate at a high level in the short term. - PTA: Supply reduction exceeds expectations, and demand from polyester is supported. Exports are expected to increase. The supply - demand outlook is improving, and the basis is recovering. It is expected to be volatile at a high level in the short term, and the strategy is to go long on the TA month - spread at low levels. - Ethylene Glycol (EG): Polyester demand provides some support, but supply from coal - based plants is increasing, and imports are expected to be high. The port inventory has limited downward space. The strategy is to short the EG1 - 5 spread at high levels. - Short - fiber: Supply remains high, and demand is seasonally weak. The absolute price has limited drivers, and processing fees are expected to be compressed. - Bottle chips: Supply is increasing, and demand is in the off - season. The supply - demand pattern is loose, and the processing fee is expected to decline. The strategy is to short the processing fee [14]. Glass - Soda Ash - Soda Ash: Recent production has declined, and inventory has decreased, supporting the futures price. However, the medium - term oversupply problem persists, and demand is expected to remain at the previous rigid level. The supply - demand pattern is bearish, and the strategy is to wait for short - selling opportunities after rebounds. - Glass: News of production line shutdowns in Hubei has boosted the market sentiment, and the futures price has rebounded, driving better spot sales. There is still some short - term rigid demand, but long - term demand is a concern, especially with the approaching winter in the north. The market still needs capacity clearance to solve the oversupply problem. The 01 contract may face pressure near the delivery month [15]. PVC - Caustic Soda - Caustic Soda: The industry still faces supply - demand pressure. Regional supply in East China will decrease next week, but with the monthly contract signing, the spot price in East China is expected to decline if the futures price remains weakening. The demand from the main downstream, alumina, is weak, and the price is expected to be weak in the long term. - PVC: The spot market remains weak. Supply is increasing, and demand is sluggish, especially during the traditional off - season from November to January. Although the cancellation of India's BIS certification is beneficial, the expected anti - dumping tax implementation limits external demand. The supply - demand pattern is in surplus, and the price is expected to continue to be weak at the bottom [16].
