1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The international soybean market has fully reflected the positive factors, and the subsequent upward momentum may be limited. However, there are also many uncertainties, and the downward space is expected to be limited if the overall market demand does not decline significantly [3]. - The domestic soybean meal futures market shows a volatile trend. The near - term contracts are relatively strong due to the loss of soybean crushing profit, the lack of competitiveness of US soybeans compared with Brazilian soybeans, and the tight supply in the long - term domestic market. The current domestic spot market has a relatively loose supply - demand situation, with high inventory and general trading volume [3]. - The domestic rapeseed meal futures market shows a relatively strong trend, mainly affected by the uncertainty of Canadian rapeseed supply. However, the high inventory of granular rapeseed meal limits the price increase space [4]. - For trading strategies, it is recommended to take a bearish view on the long - term contracts for unilateral trading, expand the MRM spread for arbitrage, and adopt the strategy of selling wide straddles for options [4]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Comprehensive Analysis and Trading Strategies 3.1.1 Comprehensive Analysis - The US soybean market shows a high - level volatile trend. The improvement of export prospects has been fully reflected in the price. Further upward movement requires more positive changes in supply. The South American market is under pressure. Brazilian soybean export volume is expected to increase, and the price increase space is limited. Argentina also faces price pressure due to large production [3]. - The domestic soybean meal futures market has a near - term strong and long - term weak pattern. The near - term strength is due to factors such as crushing profit loss and tight long - term supply. The domestic spot market has a loose supply - demand relationship and high inventory [3]. - The domestic rapeseed meal futures market is affected by the uncertainty of Canadian rapeseed import, but the high inventory of granular rapeseed meal restricts the price increase [4]. 3.1.2 Strategies - Unilateral: Adopt a bearish view on the long - term contracts. - Arbitrage: Expand the MRM spread. - Options: Sell wide straddles [4]. 3.2 Core Logic Analysis 3.2.1 US Soybeans: Export Prospects Improve, and the Market Remains at a High Level - The US soybean futures market continues to show a high - level volatile trend. The export prospects have improved, but the price increase space is limited without a significant decline in supply. The US soybean harvest progress is expected to be fast, and the single - yield estimate has been slightly adjusted. The soybean crushing profit has declined, and the export is still slow with high uncertainty [8]. 3.2.2 South America: Sowing Slows Down, and Prices Decline - The South American soybean price shows a downward trend. The Brazilian soybean price has declined, and the new - crop price is relatively firm due to the slow sowing progress. The Brazilian soybean sowing is affected by weather, the demand is general, the crushing profit is low, and the export volume is expected to remain high. The Argentine new - crop sowing has started, and the supply is expected to decrease with limited market impact [11]. 3.2.3 Trade Relations: Changes Increase, and Soybean Meal Fluctuates at a High Level - The domestic soybean meal futures market shows a high - level volatile trend. The oil mill operating rate is expected to decline, the inventory pressure is large, and the crushing profit is average. The demand is good due to high livestock and poultry inventory, but the further inventory accumulation space is limited. The reduction of tariffs on US soybeans does not make them competitive, and the long - term soybean import is expected to decrease [14]. 3.2.4 Market Supply: Loose, and Demand Remains at a Low Level - The domestic rapeseed meal futures market shows a relatively strong trend. The market is affected by the uncertainty of Canadian rapeseed import. The supply of rapeseed for crushing is low, the inventory is low, and the demand is general. The high inventory of granular rapeseed meal makes the market supply - demand relationship relatively loose, and the price increase space is limited [17]. 3.3 Fundamental Data Changes 3.3.1 International Market - The data includes US soybean weekly sales, export inspection volume, monthly crushing volume, and weekly crushing profit; Brazilian and Argentine soybean monthly export and crushing volume [20][23]. 3.3.2 Foreign Premium - It shows the FOB prices of US Gulf, Brazil, and Argentina soybeans and the CNF price of rapeseed [25]. 3.3.3 Macro: Exchange Rate & International Shipping - It involves the exchange rates of the US dollar against the Chinese yuan, Brazilian real, and Argentine peso, and the shipping freight rates of Panamax vessels on different routes [32][38]. 3.3.4 Supply - The data includes soybean and rapeseed import volume and weekly crushing volume [40]. 3.3.5 Demand - It shows the weekly提货量 of soybean meal and rapeseed meal [42]. 3.3.6 Inventory - The data includes the inventory of soybeans, rapeseed, soybean meal, and rapeseed + rapeseed meal [45].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The import cost of soybeans is expected to fluctuate. Although there are signals of China importing US soybeans, the rise in US soybean prices may be offset by the decline in Brazilian premium. In the short - term, domestic soybean meal is expected to rise with the import cost, and the profit from oil - mill crushing is expected to recover, which will stimulate soybean purchases. In the medium - term, the expectation of a loose global soybean supply remains unchanged, so it is advisable to sell on rebounds [10][11][12] 3. Summary According to the Directory 3.1 Monthly Assessment and Strategy Recommendation - **International Soybeans**: In October, US soybeans rebounded as the market anticipated China's purchase after the APEC meeting. Brazilian new - crop soybeans are being planted normally, with an expected planting progress of 50% by early November. The Brazilian premium has been decreasing, but the increase in US soybean prices has led to a slight rise in the cost of imported soybeans in China. Currently, the cost - side valuation is neutral, and the import cost is expected to fluctuate [10] - **Domestic Double - Meal**: In October, the domestic soybean meal spot price followed the futures price higher, and the basis weakened.

Domestic soybean meal trading was average, but the pick - up volume was relatively high. The inventory days of feed enterprises were 8.02 days, slightly higher than the same period last year. The current soybean purchase schedule indicates a continuous decline in domestic soybean and soybean meal inventories, which provides some support for the domestic soybean - related basis [10] - **Trading Strategy**: For unilateral trading, the market is expected to fluctuate. In the short - term, soybean meal may rise with the import cost, and the profit from crushing will recover, stimulating purchases. In the medium - term, due to the expected loose global soybean supply, it is recommended to sell on rebounds. No specific strategy is provided for arbitrage [12] 3.2 Periodic and Spot Market - **Spot Price**: The report provides historical price charts of soybean meal and rapeseed meal in Guangdong, including the spot prices of soybean meal in Dongguan and rapeseed meal in Huangpu [19] - **Basis of Main Contracts**: Charts of the basis of soybean meal 01 contract and rapeseed meal 01 contract are presented, showing the relationship between the basis and the spot price [22] - **Spread**: Multiple spread charts are provided, such as the spread between soybean meal 11 - 1, 01 - 05, 03 - 05, and 01 - rapeseed meal 01 contracts [24] - **Fund Position**: Charts of the net long positions of US soybean and US soybean meal management funds are shown, along with the relationship between the net long positions and the futures closing prices [27][29] 3.3 Supply Side - **US Soybean Planting Progress**: Charts of US soybean planting progress, emergence rate, flowering rate, and good - to - excellent rate are presented [33] - **Weather Conditions**: There is a possibility of La Nina occurring from October 2025 to January.
