1. Report Industry Investment Ratings No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Reports Oils and Fats - Palm oil: SPPOMA's significant decline in the first 25 - day production increase and the increase in the first 25 - day exports announced by shipping agencies will limit the downside of the market. However, the domestic Dalian palm oil futures market is expected to maintain a weak and volatile trend due to the weak performance of Malaysian palm oil and the increase in domestic port inventories [1]. - Soybean oil: The fundamentals of domestic soybean oil are deteriorating. Spot soybean oil will continue to be weaker than futures, and the basis quote is expected to decline. Although CBOT soybean oil is supported by the US biodiesel policy and the promotion of green energy, it is also affected by the possible tariff increase on EU goods by Trump and the decline of CBOT soybeans [1]. Meal - The two - meal futures in the domestic market are expected to maintain a volatile structure. The spring sowing of US soybeans is progressing smoothly, and the supply pressure from Brazil is still being realized. The abundant arrival of soybeans in the domestic market will suppress the cost of domestic soybean meal, but the low inventory of oil mills and the low basis limit the downside [2]. Live Pigs - The spot price of live pigs has rebounded slightly. Although the improvement in supply - demand is limited, the reduction in the supply of breeding groups at the end of the month and the pre - Dragon Boat Festival stocking demand have contributed to the rebound. The 09 contract has also rebounded, and the market is expected to neither decline significantly nor have strong upward momentum. Attention should be paid to the support around 13,500 [4][5]. Corn - In the short term, the corn market will maintain a narrow - range volatile trend. The supply and price are affected by traders' selling rhythm. The downstream deep - processing industry's continuous losses and the substitution expectation of wheat put pressure on corn. In the long term, the tightening supply, reduced imports and substitution, and increased breeding demand will support the upward movement of corn prices [7]. Sugar - The supply outlook for the 25/26 sugar season is optimistic, with smooth harvesting in Brazil's central - southern region and a good start of the monsoon season in Thailand. The raw sugar is expected to be weak and volatile, with a risk of falling below 17 cents per pound. The domestic sugar price is expected to maintain a weak and volatile trend due to the future import rhythm and the increasing long - term supply [10]. Cotton - The downstream demand for cotton has resilience, and the basis of cotton spot is firm, providing strong support for cotton prices. However, the weak long - term demand expectation limits the upward movement of cotton prices. In the short term, the domestic cotton market is expected to fluctuate within a range [12]. Eggs - The national egg supply is relatively sufficient, which has a negative impact on egg prices. The demand is expected to first decrease and then increase, and the egg price is expected to first fall and then rise slightly this week [13]. 3.

Report Industry Investment Rating - All three industries (cotton, sugar, and pulp) are rated as neutral [4][7][8] Core Viewpoints - For cotton, short - term cotton prices are supported by positive market sentiment due to Sino - US negotiations, but the rebound space is limited by the off - season, high retained tariffs, and expected high yields in the new year [3][4] - For sugar, Zhengzhou sugar generally follows the trend of raw sugar. The domestic sugar price is supported in the short term but faces upward pressure limitations from potential imports. Long - term sugar prices may decline if Brazil's high - yield expectations are met [7] - For pulp, although macro - sentiment improvement boosts pulp prices, the approaching off - season and weak terminal demand lead to a lack of industry drivers, and short - term pulp prices are expected to remain in a low - level oscillation [8] Summary by Related Catalogs Cotton Market News and Key Data - Futures: The closing price of cotton 2509 contract was 13,440 yuan/ton yesterday, up 45 yuan/ton (+0.34%) from the previous day. Spot: The Xinjiang arrival price of 3128B cotton was 14,487 yuan/ton, up 22 yuan/ton, and the national average price was 14,567 yuan/ton, up 17 yuan/ton.

Domestic: The new - year cotton planting area is stable with a slight increase, current inventories are decreasing, but it's the off - season and the impact of retained tariffs has not been fully reflected [3] Strategy - A neutral strategy is recommended. Short - term price support comes from market sentiment, but the rebound space is limited [4] Sugar Market News and Key Data - Futures: The closing price of sugar 2509 contract was 5863 yuan/ton yesterday, up 14 yuan/ton (+0.24%) from the previous day.

Pay attention to price fluctuations in the grey fabric market after the overnight rise in Zhengzhou cotton [10] - Zhengzhou cotton has been slightly upward - trending this week. The trading volume in the pure cotton yarn market has been acceptable, but prices have remained stable. Downstream demand is weakening, and confidence is insufficient. Spinning mills' inventories are low, and cash flow is okay, so the short - term willingness to limit production is low. The operating rate is expected to remain stable. If cotton prices do not change much, it is difficult for yarn prices to break through upward [10] Group 4: Options - On May 21, 2025, for the CF509C13400.CZC option, the underlying contract price was 13440, the closing price was 294, up 8.5%, IV was 10.4%, Delta was 0.5318, Gamma was 0.0006, Vega was 26.2513, Theta was - 2.3093, theoretical leverage was 45.7143, and actual leverage was 24.3109 [12] - For the CF509P12600.CZC option, the underlying contract price was 13440, the closing price was 60, up 3.4%, IV was 12.5%, Delta was - 0.1381, Gamma was 0.0003, Vega was 14.6065, Theta was - 1.5477, theoretical leverage was 224.0000, and actual leverage was 30.9344 [12] - For the CF509P12200.CZC option, the underlying contract price was 13440, the closing price was 37, down 31.5%, IV was 14.6%, Delta was - 0.0818, Gamma was 0.0002, Vega was 10.0139, Theta was - 1.2280, theoretical leverage was 363.2432, and actual leverage was 29.7133 [12] - The 120 - day HV of cotton was 10.6122, with volatility slightly lower than the previous day.

Group 1: Report General Information - Reported industry: Cotton [1] - Report date: May 21, 2025 [2] - Researchers: Yu Lanlan, Lin Zhenlei, Wang Haifeng, Hong Chenliang, Liu Youran [3] Group 2: Market Review and Operation Suggestions - Market review: Fundamentals changed little, and Zhengzhou cotton fluctuated and adjusted. The latest 328 - grade cotton price index was 14,550 yuan/ton, down 16 yuan/ton from the previous trading day. The mainstream sales basis quotes of 2024/25 Northern Xinjiang machine - picked cotton were mostly above CF09 + 1100, and the low - price offers gradually decreased. The basis of Southern Xinjiang Kashgar machine - picked 31 - grade double 29 cotton was mostly above CF09 + 850. The cotton yarn market had a fair performance recently, with downstream restocking. The cotton yarn inventory decreased, while the gray fabric market remained weak [7]. - Overseas market: The USDA weekly export signing report showed an improvement in signing compared to the previous week. The shipment decreased but was still in the peak period. The U.S. cotton planting progress was slightly slower than the same period last year, and the drought level dropped to the 5 - year average. The outer market fluctuated widely [8]. - Domestic market: The new cotton planting was generally good, with the sown area expected to increase steadily. The cotton yarn inventory decreased again due to restocking by weavers and traders, but the gray fabric market showed little improvement. After the macro - pressure weakened, Zhengzhou cotton filled the gap, but the weak fundamentals remained unchanged. It was recommended to focus on the performance of the upper resistance level and conduct range - based operations [8]. Group 3: Industry News - According to the weekly report of the China Cotton Association, most cotton - growing areas in China had sufficient light and suitable climate last week, which was beneficial for cotton sowing and seedling growth. Cotton fields in Xinjiang were mostly in the third true - leaf stage, and the overall growth was good. It was predicted that there might be strong convective weather in northern Xinjiang and sandy weather in southern Xinjiang this week. Suggestions included timely soil loosening in water - logged areas, preparing for wind and hail in advance, and checking and replanting seedlings in affected fields [9].
