Report Summary 1. Industry Investment Rating - No industry investment rating is provided in the reports [1][5] 2. Core Viewpoints - The crude oil 2602 contract is expected to be volatile in the short - and medium - term, and weak in the intraday. Overall, it is likely to run weakly, with oversupply in the supply - demand situation being the dominant factor [1] - Although geopolitical risks have increased during the New Year's holiday, the weak supply - demand situation in the crude oil market is the long - term logic for the decline in oil prices. It is expected that domestic crude oil futures prices on Thursday may maintain a volatile and weak trend [5] 3. Summary by Related Catalogs 3.1 Time - period and Viewpoint Summary - **Short - term**: The short - term view of crude oil 2602 is "volatility" [1] - **Medium - term**: The medium - term view of crude oil 2602 is "volatility" [1] - **Intraday**: The intraday view of crude oil 2602 is "weak", and the reference view is "weakly running" [1][5] 3.2 Price Movement and Driving Logic - The core logic for the weak trend of crude oil is the oversupply in the supply - demand situation [1] - During the New Year's holiday, geopolitical risks increased due to the US military operation in Venezuela and threats to other South American countries, which may be a factor for the post - holiday oil price increase. However, the long - term pressure on oil prices comes from the weak supply - demand situation in the crude oil market. The domestic crude oil futures maintained a volatile and weak trend on Wednesday night and are expected to continue this way on Thursday [5]

Group 1 - Venezuela remains a focal point in the news, with oil being a central topic. Despite having the largest global reserves, Venezuela's heavy crude oil exports are limited, suggesting minimal short-term impact on international oil prices. It is anticipated that crude oil futures may see only a brief spike without sustained increases [1] - The recent release of the "Solid Waste Comprehensive Management Action Plan" aims to enhance the reduction of industrial solid waste at the source and eliminate outdated production capacity. This plan emphasizes the integrated construction of non-ferrous metal mining and processing, which is expected to positively influence the non-ferrous metal market in the medium to long term due to anticipated supply shortages amid strong demand [2] Group 2 - The performance of the A-share market is influenced by external factors, with the recent mixed performance of major US tech stocks having a limited impact on A-share tech stocks. In contrast, the Hong Kong market showed strong performance, with the Hang Seng Tech Index experiencing a significant increase of 4%, marking the largest gain on the first trading day of the year in five years [3] - The rise in Hong Kong tech stocks, particularly driven by chips, is expected to positively affect A-share chip stocks. The performance of leading chip companies on the STAR Market is likely to boost the STAR Index and the Shanghai Composite Index. However, there is caution regarding the potential for a high opening, which could lead to a high open-low close scenario [5]

1. Report's Investment Rating for the Industry - No investment rating information provided in the report 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The crude oil 2602 contract is expected to be volatile in the short - and medium - term, and show a stronger trend intraday, with an overall outlook of stronger operation due to increased geopolitical risks [1] - The recent sharp escalation of the US - Venezuela situation is the most direct and powerful driving force for the oil price rebound. The US pressure on Venezuela may lead to a global crude oil supply gap, pushing up the risk premium of oil prices, and the domestic crude oil futures may maintain a stable pattern on Wednesday [5] 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Time - cycle Analysis - **Short - term**: The crude oil 2602 contract is expected to be volatile (within one week) [1] - **Medium - term**: The crude oil 2602 contract is expected to be volatile (from two weeks to one month) [1] - **Intraday**: The crude oil 2602 contract is expected to show a stronger trend, with a reference view of stronger operation [1][5] 3.2 Price Movement Driving Logic - The main driving force for the recent oil price rebound is the sharp escalation of the US - Venezuela situation. The US government has increased pressure on Venezuela, including a "full and complete blockade" of sanctioned tankers and plans to seize more tankers. About 600 million barrels of Venezuelan crude oil have been seized in total. Venezuela's oil exports in November were about 600,000 barrels per day. The decrease in the number of tankers going to Venezuela has led to concerns about a global supply gap, pushing up the risk premium of oil prices [5]
