1. Report Industry Investment Rating No investment rating information is provided in the report. 2. Core Views - **LLDPE & PP**: The overall trading was weak on Monday, and market sentiment deteriorated. For plastics, maintenance increased and some production shifted before early June, with low imports. Demand improved in the short - term due to tariff cuts, and there was an expectation of inventory reduction. For PP, the maintenance peak was in late May, and subsequent supply pressure would increase. Demand had short - term benefits but mid - term concerns. The static fundamentals were okay. For single - side trading, it was advisable to go short on rallies, and the LP spread was expected to widen [4]. - **PVC & Caustic Soda**: For caustic soda, in the short - term, supply pressure was limited during the concentrated maintenance period. Demand was supported by the potential resumption of some alumina production and new production lines. The purchase price of mainstream Shandong factories increased, and the futures price might rise further, but there were risks. It was recommended to stay on the sidelines, and aggressive investors could try positive spreads cautiously. For PVC, the short - term rebound was supported by macro - stimulation, export, and supply - demand factors, but there was an over - supply pressure in the long - term. It was expected to fluctuate in the short - term, with a resistance level of around 5100 for the 09 contract [26]. - **Polyester Industry Chain**: For PX, short - term supply was tight, and demand was supported, but the upside was limited. PX09 was expected to fluctuate in the range of 6600 - 7000, and PX9 - 1 was in a short - term positive spread situation. For PTA, the supply - demand situation was expected to weaken. TA09 was expected to fluctuate in the range of 4600 - 5000, and TA9 - 1 was short - term positive spread and medium - term negative spread. For MEG, there was an expectation of inventory reduction, and short - term support was strong. It was advisable to sell put options on EG2509 - P - 4300 and go for positive spreads on EG9 - 1. For short - fiber, the absolute price was expected to adjust, and attention could be paid to the opportunity to widen the processing margin. For bottle - chips, the absolute price followed the raw materials, and attention could be paid to the opportunity to widen the processing margin at the lower end of the range [30]. - **Crude Oil**: Oil prices were oscillating, and the future logic would shift from macro to fundamental factors. If OPEC's actual production increase was as expected, the market would be under pressure; otherwise, the pressure would be relieved. There was still a short - term geopolitical premium. Oil prices were likely to fluctuate within a certain range. The recommended trading strategy was a band - trading approach, with the WTI range at [59, 69], Brent at [61, 71], and SC at [450, 510]. It was advisable to buy volatility in options trading [34]. - **Methanol**: The port inventory showed an inflection point, and the expected increase in imports would lead to inventory accumulation and a weaker basis. The 09 contract was expected to decline in the short - term, and it was advisable to add positions at 2350, targeting 2050 - 2100. It was also advisable to reduce short - positions on the 69 reverse spread [37]. - **Styrene**: Styrene rebounded strongly. Tariff cuts improved demand expectations, and the inventory was at a low level. However, there were risks, including high inventory in the 3S products and weak pure - benzene supply - demand. It was expected to fluctuate in the short - term and be bearish in the medium - term. Attention could be paid to the resistance level of 7800 - 7900 for the near - month contract, and the opportunity for the EB - BZ spread to widen [42]. 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - All the energy and chemical products in the report are rated as "oscillating" [1][3][4][6][8] 2. Core Views of the Report - **Crude Oil**: On Wednesday, oil prices declined slightly. The EIA data showed an increase in US crude oil inventories last week. Saudi Arabia's production increased in April, but the decline in production from some OPEC countries offset the growth. Russia is considering extending gasoline export restrictions. Oil prices are under pressure and oscillating after a continuous rebound [1]. - **Fuel Oil**: On Wednesday, fuel oil futures rose. In May, the volume of low - sulfur arbitrage cargo shipped from the European market to Singapore is expected to decrease, while the inventory in Singapore is increasing due to more low - sulfur fuel oil blending components from the Middle East and South America. The demand for high - sulfur fuel oil is expected to be strongly supported by the increase in summer power generation demand. The absolute prices of FU and LU may remain stable, and it is advisable to consider a strategy of narrowing the LU - FU spread later [3]. - **Asphalt**: On Wednesday, asphalt futures rose. This week, the total inventory of domestic refinery asphalt increased, the social inventory decreased, and the total operating rate of asphalt plants increased. Supply is expected to continue to increase, and market demand will increase slightly in the north but be affected by rainfall in the south. The absolute price of BU may remain stable, but the upside space is limited [3]. - **Polyester**: On Wednesday, polyester futures rose. The production and sales of polyester yarn in Jiangsu and Zhejiang were weak. Some MEG devices were under maintenance, and some polyester devices were restarted or newly put into operation. Crude oil prices strengthened, PTA device maintenance continued, and downstream inventory and operation rates were high. PTA futures may oscillate strongly, and the supply of ethylene glycol tightened in the short term, leading to a stronger price [4]. - **Rubber**: On Wednesday, rubber futures rose. As of May 11, 2025, China's natural rubber social inventory increased slightly. The shortage of butadiene and the strengthening of crude oil prices led to an obvious rebound in butadiene rubber prices. The performance of natural rubber was relatively weak, and the Sino - US joint statement had limited impact on rubber prices [6]. - **Methanol**: On Wednesday, methanol prices showed certain fluctuations. The domestic methanol supply is at a high level due to good producer profits, while the Iranian device load has declined, and the arrival volume is lower than expected. The MTO device maintenance has been implemented, and the operation of traditional downstream industries is relatively stable. Methanol prices will recover, but there is still pressure on the upside [6]. - **Polyolefins**: On Wednesday, polyolefin prices showed certain trends. Refinery maintenance is increasing, and supply pressure is being relieved. The Sino - US trade negotiation has made important progress, and there may be an intention to rush for exports in the short term, so polyolefin prices will recover [8]. - **Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)**: On Wednesday, PVC market prices increased. The supply is at a high - level oscillation, and the demand is relatively stable. Although the Sino - US trade negotiation has made significant progress, the upside space for PVC is expected to be limited [8] 3.
