Report Summary 1. Investment Rating The report does not provide an investment rating for the industry. 2. Core Views - **Rubber**: On Monday, the domestic Shanghai rubber futures 2509 contract showed a trend of shrinking volume, reducing positions, oscillating weakly, and slightly closing lower. Although the macro - sentiment has improved recently, the supply of the rubber market is expected to increase, and the domestic and foreign natural rubber producing areas are about to enter a new tapping season. Meanwhile, domestic tire enterprises are approaching the May Day holiday, and the operating rate is under pressure to decline, so the rubber price lacks follow - up momentum for rebound [4]. - **Methanol**: On Monday, the domestic methanol futures 2509 contract showed a trend of increasing volume, increasing positions, oscillating strongly, and slightly rising. However, the supply - demand fundamentals of methanol are still weak, with a significant increase in weekly production and a high operating rate of coal - to - methanol. The upward space for methanol in the future may be limited, and attention should be paid to the resistance of the 20 - day moving average [4]. - **Crude Oil**: On Monday, the domestic crude oil futures 2506 contract showed a trend of increasing volume, increasing positions, oscillating strongly, and slightly rising. After the negative impact of Kazakhstan's production increase has been digested, the crude oil market has entered a stage of long - short divergence, and the upward movement of the futures price is blocked by the 20 - day moving average. It is expected that the domestic oil price will maintain an oscillating and consolidating trend in the future [5]. 3.

Group 1: Report Overview - The report provides a weekly strategy for crude oil and polyester, covering views, logic, strategies, etc. [2] Group 2: Crude Oil Analysis Views - Long - term central price moves down, short - term price rebounds. Tariff easing may keep oil prices stable, with current spot demand being fair. The structure remains strong, refinery profits rebound, inventory continues to decline, and there is still support for oil prices. Short - term prices will fluctuate within a narrow range. However, over - planned production increases in countries like Kazakhstan may lead to higher - than - expected supply recovery. If demand drops later, it may pressure the market. [2] Logic - Supply increases from Kazakhstan and others will be faster than planned, and if demand weakens again, it will impact the market. [2] Strategy - Short - term long and long - term short [2] Market Conditions - The supply - demand level remains high, the monthly spread is at the highest level since the end of January, and the spot discount is neutral. [4] - U.S. refinery feedstock has increased slightly. As seasonal maintenance nears the end, feedstock demand has risen to a five - year high, inventory levels are low, and refined oil inventory is continuously decreasing. [12][13] - Refining profits have rebounded significantly recently, especially in the U.S. Gulf and Asia - Pacific regions. Spot trading has recovered, and the discount is reasonable. [19] - Refined oil demand exceeds expectations, gasoline and diesel inventories have decreased significantly, and overall inventory pressure is moderate, supporting a bottom - up price rebound. [22] Group 3: Polyester Analysis Views - In the short term, it will fluctuate at a low level. Downstream production remains high, but terminal production has further declined. Although there is some short - term restocking, finished product inventory is still high. Negative feedback may spread downstream. PTA prices may have a short - term small rebound due to inventory reduction, but downstream conditions may limit the upside. Ethylene glycol will continue to fluctuate weakly. [2] Logic - Negative feedback is emerging, downstream inventory pressure is increasing, and raw material inventory in downstream factories has accumulated significantly. The probability of normalizing ethane imports increases, reducing the possibility of some ethylene glycol import - raw - material device shutdowns. Port and factory inventory reduction is slow, and the obvious inventory reduction time for ethylene glycol will be postponed. [2] Strategy - Wait for low - buying opportunities [2] Market Conditions - The increase in polyester products is significantly lower than that of crude oil. After the crude oil price rebounded, the PX price increased slightly, and the PXN spread remained at around $170. The outer - market price rose to $752. PTA total inventory decreased slightly, port basis weakened slightly, but warehouse receipts decreased significantly. [27] - Due to the decrease in profit transfer influence, PTA supply decreased, and ethylene glycol production increased. PTA maintenance is frequent, and production remains low. Ethylene glycol production has increased due to potential stable oil - based supply and increased coal - based production. [33][37] - Terminal orders remain at a low level, with only Southeast Asian re - export orders being fair. Direct U.S. - related orders are almost stagnant, new orders are scarce, and terminal production has further declined. [40] - Downstream production remains at a high level. Although it has decreased month - on - month, it still reaches 93.6%. However, downstream profits are extremely low, inventory pressure is increasing, and the side - effects of high production are emerging. [47] - Downstream inventory continues to accumulate. After the easing of tariff concerns, there is some restocking intention, but the inventory reduction of FDY and DTY is limited, and inventory remains extremely high. [50] - Downstream profits continue to decline, and the sustainability of high - level production is questionable. The market has started to price in downstream inventory pressure, and polyester product prices will fluctuate at a low level. [57]

贵金属： 连续上涨后黄金步入调整。上周美国总统特朗普释放缓和信号，一方面表示尽管他对美联储 未能更快地降低利率感到沮丧，但他无意解雇美联储主席鲍威尔。另一方面称对华关税将 " 大幅下降 " 。周末有报道称，首个贸易协议即将达成，并且很可能会是与印度签署。克利夫兰联储主席哈马克上周 四在接受采访时表示，美联储 5 月已基本排除降息可能。但她同时释放关键信息称，若经济走向有了明 确证据， 6 月存在采取政策行动的空间。美国财长贝森特最新演讲阐述中美达成贸易协议的可能框架， 称需 2-3 年。此前，特朗普一再要求美联储降息，并研究能否免去鲍威尔的美联储主席职务，并引发市 场恐慌。而随着贸易战的扰动，引发一系列的连锁反应，金融市场动荡、衰退风险加剧、去美元化、美 国债务等问题愈发凸显，伴随政策和市场的不确定性，黄金价格持续刷新历史新高。考虑美国债务压力 进一步凸显，滞胀形式进一步明确下，黄金整体维持强势，但近期在贸易战没有进一步烈化、特朗普和 美联储态度软化、滞胀预期一定程度消化、多头较为拥挤下，黄金或面临调整压力。 集运指数： 上周五 EC 低开震荡， 06 合约收于 1365.1 点，下跌 2.92% 。盘后公布 ...

G20财长会议上，中方代表团明确拒绝美国财长会面请求，而与九国展开对话，此举被视为对特朗普145%超高关税的强硬回应。 面对中方冷处理，特朗普急称"接到北京来电"却被直接驳斥，同时中国正大规模取消美国订单，从农产品到能源全面反制。 中美关税交锋背后有何战略考量？对话被拒绝的真正原因是什么？ 作者-凯 冷眼相待，拒绝搭台 华盛顿会议厅内，美国财长贝森特的表情像是吃了苦瓜一般难看。他手边那张空荡荡的会谈安排表，仿佛在无声地嘲笑着他的自信。 原本预期的中美高层对话，变成了一场单相思的尴尬。中国财政部长蓝佛安虽然确实到达华盛顿参加G20财长会议，但他的日程表上，唯独美国这一栏画了 个大大的叉。 前言 更让贝森特心塞的是，中方代表团在这两天竟与九个国家和国际组织安排了一对一会晤，唯独将美国排除在外。这种明显的"选择性沟通"，用行动传递出一 个再清晰不过的信号：中国无意在此时与美国坐下来谈。 会议期间，蓝佛安发言直指关税战对全球经济的破坏性影响，强调中方将坚定维护以世贸组织为基础的多边贸易体系。台下的各国代表纷纷点头，而美方代 表则神情尴尬。 贝森特此前还通过媒体放出风来，说要与中方进行"面对面交流"，殊不知中方对这种带 ...
