Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. Core Views - Plastic: There is an expectation of a rebound in downstream开工, and it is expected to fluctuate in the short term. Polyethylene downstream is still in the traditional off - season, with no obvious boost in terminal demand. Although the overall downstream开工 rate has increased, the continuous restocking strength is insufficient. The market's expectation of anti - involution policies will still support the market. It is recommended to short on rallies, with the 2509 contract expected to fluctuate in the range of 7200 - 7500 [5][6]. - PP: The pressure on the disk trend is relatively large, and it will fluctuate in the short term. During the off - season of demand, the downstream开工 rate remains stable. The upcoming "Golden September and Silver October" and the recent takeaway market competition will support downstream demand to some extent. However, there are many new production capacities on the supply side, and the disk pressure is still expected to be large. It is recommended to short on rallies, with the 2509 contract expected to fluctuate in the range of 6900 - 7200 [7][8].

Nan Hua Qi Huo· 2025-08-07 10:18
Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Core Viewpoints - From the PE fundamentals, the near - term pressure is still high as downstream orders haven't improved and restocking demand is limited. Although there was a short - term increase in speculative demand on Monday and Tuesday this week, today's trading volume dropped significantly. Also, PE has been accumulating inventory for four consecutive weeks, with LLDPE inventory reaching a historical high. So, there is still significant pressure above PE. However, from the expected level, the current stage may be the weakest for PE demand, and downstream orders are expected to gradually recover in August, driving demand to pick up. Therefore, PE doesn't have a strong downward drive either. In conclusion, PE is mainly affected by external factors recently and lacks its own directional drive [4] Content Summary by Related Catalogs Price Prediction and Hedging Strategies - The monthly price range prediction for polyethylene is 7200 - 7400, with the current 20 - day rolling volatility at 9.94% and its historical percentile (3 - year) at 11.1% [3] - For inventory management when the finished product inventory is high and worried about price drops: To prevent inventory depreciation losses, enterprises can short plastic futures (L2509, sell, 25%, entry range 7350 - 7400) to lock in profits and compensate for production costs; they can also sell call options (L2509C7400, sell, 50%, entry range 10 - 50) to collect premiums and reduce costs [3] - For procurement management when the regular inventory is low and purchasing according to orders: To prevent the increase in procurement costs due to rising polyethylene prices, enterprises can buy plastic futures (L2509, buy, 50%, entry range 7150 - 7200) at present to lock in procurement costs in advance; they can also sell put options (L2509P7200, sell, 75%, entry range 10 - 50) to collect premiums and reduce procurement costs, and lock in the spot purchase price if the polyethylene price drops [3] Core Contradictions - Near - term pressure on PE fundamentals is high due to poor downstream orders and limited restocking demand. Although there was short - term speculative demand, today's trading volume decreased. PE has been accumulating inventory for four consecutive weeks, especially LLDPE. However, the current stage may be the weakest for PE demand, and downstream orders are expected to recover in August [4] 利多解读 - The "anti - involution" policy drives up the price of coking coal, providing cost support for polyolefins. The demand is expected to improve after August [5] 利空解读 - Jilin Petrochemical's recent production launch. The current restocking willingness of downstream is limited, and the spot price lacks support. PE inventory has been accumulating for four consecutive weeks, with a large increase in LLDPE inventory [6] Daily Data - **Futures prices and spreads**: On August 7, 2025, the plastic main basis was - 22 yuan/ton, with a daily change of 24 yuan/ton and a weekly change of 3 yuan/ton.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core View of the Report - The emotional premium brought by geopolitical conflicts in the polypropylene market is starting to decrease, and there is a risk of price correction. Production profits are expected to continue to weaken, and one should be cautious of the callback risk. It is recommended to close the long - PP short - MA spread strategy and consider buying put options and selling call options [1][7][11]. 3. Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Recent Market Main Contradictions - Production: This week's production was less than expected due to more newly added maintenance devices. In the next two weeks, device maintenance will decrease, and production may increase slightly. The maintenance loss this week was 16.77 million tons, up 0.98 million tons from last week, and is expected to be zero in the next two weeks. - Supply and demand: The import and export volumes were in line with expectations. The apparent demand decreased by 1.71 million tons this week, and it is expected to be around 81 million tons next week according to seasonality. The inventory increased slightly this week and is expected to continue to increase slightly next week, mainly due to relatively weak apparent demand [6]. 3.2 Polypropylene Supply - Production: This week's national production was 77.01 million tons, 0.36 million tons less than last week. In the next two weeks, it is expected to reach 78.41 million tons and 78.50 million tons respectively. - Maintenance: There are many newly added maintenance devices this week, resulting in less production than expected. In the next two weeks, device maintenance will decrease, and production may increase slightly [6]. 3.3 Polypropylene Supply and Demand Situation - Supply: The national production this week was 77.01 million tons, with an import volume of 7.5 million tons and an export volume of 3.75 million tons. - Demand: The apparent demand this week was 79.48 million tons, 1.71 million tons less than last week. - Inventory: The total inventory increased by 1.28 million tons this week, and is expected to reach 80.53 million tons and 81.36 million tons in the next two weeks respectively. The upstream inventory increased, mainly due to relatively weak apparent demand [6]. 3.4 Polypropylene Upstream Raw Material Situation - Raw materials: The prices of crude oil, coal, and propane fluctuated this week. The cost of oil - based PP increased by 22.38 yuan/ton, the cost of coal - based PP remained unchanged, and the cost of propane - dehydrogenated PP increased by 88.41 yuan/ton. - Cost: The cost side fluctuated strongly this week, and the emotional premium brought by geopolitical conflicts began to decrease. It is expected to fluctuate next week [7]. 3.5 Polypropylene Cost and Profit - Cost: The cost of oil - based PP, coal - based PP, propane - dehydrogenated PP, and externally purchased methanol - based PP all changed to varying degrees this week. - Profit: The comprehensive profit of the oil - chemical end decreased by 110 yuan/ton, and the production profit is expected to continue to weaken. The import profit is still inverted [7]. 3.6 Polypropylene Price and Spread - Basis: The basis showed an overall weakening trend this week, with limited basis trading opportunities. - Inter - month spread: The inter - month spread fluctuated weakly this week. - Variety spread: The spread between pellets and powders was too narrow, which had a certain supporting effect on the pellet price. The long - PP short - MA spread strategy has been recommended to close the position [9]. 3.7 Polypropylene Upstream, Mid - stream, and Downstream Views and Strategies - Upstream: Although upstream maintenance is gradually entering the peak period, the overall supply is still relatively sufficient, and the main idea is to actively sell goods. - Mid - stream: The mid - stream sales situation has slightly deteriorated, and the demand for speculative inventory in the early stage is still being digested, resulting in a short - term decline in transactions. - Downstream: The downstream replenishment willingness has decreased. After the price correction, the downstream's willingness to purchase goods has decreased significantly. - Strategy: Close the long - PP short - MA spread strategy, be cautious of the callback risk, and consider buying put options and selling call options [11].
