The supply - demand pattern remains weak, and the rebound is expected to face pressure [5]. Methanol - The port market is under pressure due to high inventory and weak demand. The inland market has price inversion problems. The MTO load decreases, and demand support is insufficient. The price is expected to decline in the short - term, and attention should be paid to port de - stocking and overseas gas - limiting expectations [8]. Polyolefins - PP: Supply recovery slows down due to more unplanned maintenance. PE: Supply is expected to increase as maintenance peaks. Demand has warmed up, and inventory is decreasing.

Low - valuation provides support, but there is an over - supply problem [1][29] - **Logic**: Low - valuation supports, and the export may increase due to India's policy window. New production capacity has been released, and attention should be paid to whether upstream marginal devices can cut production. [29] - **Strategy**: The market maintains a high contango. Industries should hedge at high prices. Participate in short - term rebounds with light positions. Focus on the V range of [4600 - 4800] [29] PX - **Core Viewpoint**: Cautiously bearish. Short - term supply - demand improvement is against the backdrop of pressured oil prices [1][31] - **Logic**: Supply - side devices at home and abroad continue to reduce load, and demand is expected to weaken. PXN and PX - MX are at relatively high levels. The cost - end oil price rebounds but has limited upside [31] - **Strategy**: Look for opportunities to short at high prices. Arbitrage by going long PTA and short PX. Focus on the PX range of [6520 - 6630] [32] PTA - **Core Viewpoint**: Cautiously bearish. There is a short - term rebound due to supply - demand improvement and market speculation [2][34] - **Logic**: New devices are about to be put into production, but the processing fee is low, and future device maintenance may increase. Terminal demand shows slight improvement, but there is a risk of inventory accumulation in November [34] - **Strategy**: There is no obvious unilateral trend. Arbitrage by going long PTA and short PX. Look for opportunities to short on rebounds in the medium - long term. Focus on the TA range of [4530 - 4600] [35] MEG - **Core Viewpoint**: Cautiously bearish.
