In the commodity futures market, different metals and agricultural products have their own supply - demand and price trends, and the investment strategies vary accordingly [2][6][8]. 3. Summary According to the Catalog Financial Derivatives Financial Futures - **Stock Index Futures**: On Monday, the A - share market showed a sector rotation. The red - chip sector rebounded, while the TMT sector pulled back. The four major stock index futures contracts had different price movements, and the basis spread widened.

They can lightly sell MO options with an execution price of 5900 in August - September to collect premiums [2][3][5]. - **Treasury Bond Futures**: After the cross - month period, the money - market rate dropped significantly, and treasury bond futures generally rebounded. However, they lack the momentum to break through the previous high. The focus is on whether the money - market rate can further decline, the subsequent fundamental situation, and the central bank's bond trading announcements. Short - term unilateral strategies suggest appropriate allocation of long positions on dips and taking profits near the previous high [6][7]. Precious Metals - Gold continues its upward trend due to the US tariff threat and the decline of the US dollar index. The US economic data shows the impact of tariffs on the manufacturing industry, and the labor supply is tightening. The euro - zone inflation rate is stable.

Black Metals - **Steel**: The price of steel is slightly stable due to the rumor of production restrictions in Tangshan. The supply is at a high level but shows a slight decline, and the demand is in the off - season with a downward trend. The price of steel is affected by cost and demand expectations. Short - selling operations or selling out - of - the - money call options can be considered [42][43][44]. - **Iron Ore**: The 09 contract of iron ore may turn weak.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided 2. Core Views - The current geopolitical risks in the oil market have gradually released, and oil prices have deviated significantly from macro and fundamental guidance. Although Iran has shown signs of easing, the large single - day decline in oil prices suggests that they have reached a reasonable range. Short positions can still be held, but it is not advisable to add new short positions [2] - For methanol, as the geopolitical situation cools, it is returning to its fundamentals. With low inventory and strong spot prices, the port basis is at a high level. However, the high valuation of methanol spot has compressed downstream profits. With limited imports expected in August, it is difficult for the port to accumulate a large amount of inventory before the 09 contract. Overall, domestic supply is high, short - term demand is okay, but there is a risk of weakening demand in the future. It is recommended to wait and see [4] - Regarding urea, with more maintenance devices, the operating rate has declined. Domestic demand is weakening, and the geopolitical situation is easing. Although exports are ongoing and port inventory is rising, domestic demand is entering the off - season. Without further positive news, it is difficult for the futures price to rise. It is necessary to pay attention to the demand for compound fertilizers in the autumn and changes in export policies [6] - In the rubber market, NR and RU are in a volatile adjustment. Bulls expect price increases due to potential rubber production cuts, while bears are concerned about poor demand. The tire operating rate shows mixed performance, and it is recommended to wait and see or use a neutral short - term trading strategy [9][10][11] - For PVC, the cost of calcium carbide is rising, while the downstream demand is weakening. With the expectation of strong supply and weak demand, the futures price is mainly under the pressure of inventory reduction. Although it has rebounded recently, it will still face pressure in the future [11] - In the styrene market, with the cooling of the Middle East geopolitical situation, the cost of pure benzene is increasing in supply, and the supply of styrene is rising while the port inventory is accumulating. Although it is the off - season, the demand of three S products has increased. It is expected that the styrene price will fluctuate downward [13][15] - For polyethylene, with the end of the Iran - Israel conflict, the oil price has stabilized. The supply pressure will be relieved in June, and the inventory of traders is decreasing. Although it is the off - season, the price is expected to remain volatile in July [17] - Regarding polypropylene, the profit of Shandong refineries has stopped falling and rebounded, and the supply of propylene is increasing. With planned production capacity coming on - stream in July and weakening demand, the price is expected to be bearish in July [18] - In the PX market, the maintenance season is over, but PXN is expanding in the short term. Due to the new PTA production capacity in the third quarter, PX is expected to continue to reduce inventory. After the geopolitical situation eases, it is recommended to consider buying on dips following the oil price [20] - For PTA, with more expected maintenance in July, it will continue to have a small inventory reduction, and the processing fee is supported. Although the demand for polyester fiber is okay, there is a plan to reduce production of bottle chips. After the geopolitical situation eases, it is recommended to consider buying on dips following the PX price [21] - For ethylene glycol, with more maintenance devices at home and abroad, the downstream operating rate is expected to decline, and the inventory reduction at the port will slow down. The valuation is relatively high, and the fundamentals are weak. It is recommended to consider short - selling, but beware of the risk of ethane imports [22] 3.
