1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The investment rating for cotton is "Bearish" [2] 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The industry has a strong consensus on a bearish outlook for the future. In the fourth quarter, with the large - scale listing of new cotton, supply pressure and market sentiment will be concentratedly released. The futures price may fall below 13,000 yuan/ton, with the low point possibly occurring in November. After the release of negative factors, downstream restocking will help stabilize the market. In the long - term, the fourth quarter may be the period with the greatest domestic pressure, and the market in the next year is generally cautiously optimistic [5][30][36] 3. Summary According to the Directory 3.1 Research Purpose - To understand the production, cost, acquisition, consumption, inventory, and industry sentiment of cotton in Xinjiang, the researcher participated in the "2025 Autumn Xinjiang Cotton 'Full - industry Chain + Full - domain' In - depth Research" from September 7th to 19th. The research objects included cotton farmers, ginning factories, textile enterprises, and warehousing and logistics enterprises, mainly through enterprise discussions and on - site field inspections [14] 3.2 Research Summary - **New cotton production increase**: The expectation of new cotton production increase is strong, and the production forecast has been raised. The estimated production of Xinjiang cotton this year is between 730 - 780 tons, with a high probability of reaching 750 tons. The planting area has increased by 300 - 400 million mu (7% - 10%), and the average yield per mu has increased by 30 - 50 kg (5% - 10%) [17][18] - **New cotton quality**: The new cotton quality is expected to improve year - on - year. Although the lint percentage in some southern Xinjiang areas may decline, the overall quality of cotton in both southern and northern Xinjiang is better than last year [19] - **Opening time**: The opening time of cotton acquisition in southern and northern Xinjiang is close, expected to be concentrated around September 25th to the end of September, later than the previous market expectation but earlier than last year [20] - **Planting cost and income**: The planting cost has increased slightly year - on - year. The cost of leased land is about 3,000 yuan/mu, and the cost of self - owned land is about 1,500 - 1,700 yuan/ton. The break - even yield per mu for leased land is 400 - 410 kg [21] - **Cottonseed price**: The cottonseed price has increased year - on - year. The pre - sale price in southern Xinjiang is 2.3 - 2.35 yuan/kg, and in northern Xinjiang is about 2.2 yuan/kg. During the peak acquisition period, the price may drop to 2.1 - 2.2 yuan/kg, still higher than last year [22] - **Ginning factory**: Ginning factories are cautious in acquisition. In northern Xinjiang, due to years of losses, they have lost the ability and impulse to rush for cotton, and the over - capacity situation has been reversed [23][24] - **Cotton farmers**: Cotton farmers have low expectations for the cotton price, with a psychological expectation of 6.3 - 6.5 yuan/kg, and their reluctance to sell has weakened [25] - **Warehousing inventory**: The inventory of old cotton in Xinjiang's warehousing enterprises is extremely low, while the industrial inventory of cotton spinning enterprises is relatively high, which can be connected to the large - scale listing of new cotton. However, some inland textile enterprises have tight inventories, and the shortage of high - quality cotton is prominent [26] - **New cotton pre - sale**: The pre - sale volume of Xinjiang cotton is large, about 150 tons. The pre - sale basis is high, but the actual execution rate is uncertain [27] - **Cotton spinning enterprises**: Xinjiang's cotton spinning enterprises have sufficient orders but shrinking profit margins. The growth of cotton spinning capacity in Xinjiang will enter a bottleneck period [28] 3.3 Market Outlook and Investment Strategy - **Short - term**: In the fourth quarter, due to the large - scale listing of new cotton, the supply pressure and market sentiment will be concentratedly released. The futures price may fall below 13,000 yuan/ton, with the low point possibly in November. It is not recommended to short after the price falls below 13,000 yuan/ton due to the poor risk - return ratio [5][35][36] - **Long - term**: After the release of negative factors, downstream restocking will help stabilize the market. The overall market in the next year is cautiously optimistic [5][36] 3.4 Research Content 3.4.1 September 8th - Kashgar Region, Shache County - **Kashgar Youmian Experimental Base**: It promotes the modernization of the cotton industry.

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2. Core Viewpoints - ICE cotton prices are fluctuating narrowly between 66 - 67 cents, lacking positive support. Attention should be paid to whether it can hold the support level of 66 cents/pound. The domestic cotton futures are falling. The expected high - yield and large - scale listing of new cotton, along with the weak purchasing enthusiasm of ginning mills, are pressuring the Zhengzhou cotton futures price. The uncertainty of new cotton cost is the main pressure. However, if the demand is stable and the spot maintains a high basis, the point - pricing demand is expected to support the Zhengzhou cotton futures 01 contract after the new cotton cost is determined. Before the National Day holiday, Zhengzhou cotton futures are expected to maintain a weak and volatile trend, and after the holiday, the trend will still be dominated by the new cotton cost, with limited impact from the overseas market during the holiday [1][4][17]. 3.

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2. Core View of the Report The current inventory of old cotton is low, which supports cotton prices. Attention should be paid to the listing time of new cotton. However, the downstream spinning profit is poor, and the acceptance of high - priced cotton is limited. The new - season Xinjiang cotton is expected to have a bumper harvest, and there is significant hedging pressure on cotton prices before the new cotton is listed. The overall trend is stable but weak. Attention should be paid to the support level around 13,500 yuan/ton and the centralized listing of machine - picked cotton later [4]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Cotton Price Forecast and Risk Management Strategy - **Price Range Forecast**: The predicted monthly price range of cotton is 13,500 - 14,200 yuan/ton, with a current 20 - day rolling volatility of 0.0882 and a historical percentile (3 - year) of 0.2287 [3]. - **Inventory Management Strategy**: For enterprises with high inventory worried about cotton price drops, they can short Zhengzhou cotton futures (CF2601) at 14,000 - 14,200 yuan/ton with a 50% hedging ratio to lock in profits and cover production costs. They can also sell call options (CF601C14200) at 200 - 250 with a 75% hedging ratio to reduce costs and lock in the spot selling price if the cotton price rises [3]. - **Procurement Management Strategy**: For enterprises with low procurement inventory and hoping to purchase according to orders, they can buy Zhengzhou cotton futures (CF2601) at 13,300 - 13,500 yuan/ton with a 50% hedging ratio to lock in procurement costs in advance. They can also sell put options (CF601P13400) at 300 - 350 with a 50% hedging ratio to reduce procurement costs and lock in the spot cotton purchase price if the cotton price drops [3]. 3.2 Core Contradictions The low inventory of old cotton supports cotton prices, but the poor downstream spinning profit limits the acceptance of high - priced cotton. The new - season Xinjiang cotton is expected to have a bumper harvest, and there is large hedging pressure on cotton prices before the new cotton is listed. The overall trend is stable but weak, and attention should be paid to the support around 13,500 yuan/ton and the centralized listing of machine - picked cotton [4]. 3.3利多解读 - **Inventory Reduction**: Due to the increase in spinning capacity in Xinjiang and a significant reduction in imported cotton this year, the downstream rigid consumption of cotton has increased, and the inventory of Xinjiang cotton has decreased rapidly. As of September 15, the domestic industrial and commercial cotton inventory was 2.038 million tons, a decrease of 336,000 tons from the previous month [5]. - **Retail Sales Growth**: In August, the retail sales of clothing, footwear, hats, and knitted textiles reached 104.5 billion yuan, a year - on - year increase of 3.1% and a month - on - month increase of 8.74%. With the arrival of the "Golden September and Silver October", the downstream sales have improved month - on - month, and the finished - product inventory of yarn and cloth factories has further decreased [5]. 3.4利空解读 - **Bumper Harvest Expectation**: The growth of new cotton in Xinjiang is fast and in good condition. There is an expectation of a bumper harvest in the new season, which will bring large hedging pressure on cotton prices [6]. - **Export Decline**: In August 2025, China's textile and clothing exports were 26.539 billion US dollars, a year - on - year decrease of 5% and a month - on - month decrease of 0.85%.

1. General Information - The reports cover multiple industries including oils and fats, sugar, cotton, eggs, corn, pigs, and meal products, dated September 15, 2025 [1][4][5][8][11][14][17] 2. Industry - Specific Investment Ratings - No industry investment ratings are provided in the reports 3. Core Views Oils and Fats - CBOT soybean oil may fall again due to seasonal decline in consumption and potential high - throughput of factories. The basis of spot soybean oil will have limited short - term fluctuations. Malaysian palm oil futures are in a consolidation phase, facing potential downward pressure from increasing production and weak export data. The Dalian palm oil futures may follow suit and face a risk of downward break - through. The September 13 USDA report on soybeans is neutral to bearish, and the industrial demand for US soybean oil decreases after summer [1] Sugar - The raw sugar price is expected to maintain a bottom - side oscillation between 15 - 17 cents per pound. Domestic sugar has high inventory pressure, and the short - term futures may stabilize around 5500, but the rebound space is limited. A short - selling strategy on rallies is recommended [4] Cotton - In the short term, domestic cotton prices may fluctuate within a range. As new cotton is expected to be listed in the future, prices may face downward pressure [5] Eggs - Egg prices may rise to the annual high due to increased demand from traders, but the high inventory and cold - storage egg release may limit the increase. After traders finish restocking next week, egg prices in some areas may decline slightly [8][9] Corn - In the short term, the corn market will gradually shift to a supply - demand loosening situation, with the futures oscillating weakly. In the medium term, the bearish situation remains, and a short - selling strategy on rallies is advisable [11] Pigs - The spot pig prices have limited room for further decline due to farmers' reluctance to sell at low prices and secondary fattening. However, considering the supply recovery and uncertain demand, the prices may continue to bottom - out after a short - term rebound [15] Meal Products - The global soybean supply - demand situation has some changes, with US soybean production increasing and the global stocks - to - use ratio slightly decreasing. In China, the concern about future supply is alleviated, and the spot market is loose. However, due to cost support, the decline space of domestic meal products is limited [17] 4.
