Core View of the Report The report analyzes the rubber market in the week of November 2025, covering aspects such as price trends, supply and demand, inventory, and downstream consumption. It also provides trading strategies and discusses the impact of events like African rubber becoming a substitute for NR futures and Thailand's abnormal weather. Overall, the market shows complex trends with both positive and negative factors affecting different segments of the rubber industry [2][3][4]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Price and Supply - Demand Analysis - **Price**: Natural rubber in Qingdao (Thai mixed) was reported at 14,620 yuan/ton (-36 yuan/ton), and Shanghai full - latex at 14,850 yuan/ton (+200 yuan/ton). For cis - butadiene rubber, Shandong Daqing BR9000 was at 10,530 yuan/ton (+160 yuan/ton) [2]. - **Supply**: Yunnan's natural rubber production stopped early, and continuous rainfall in southern Thailand led to higher overseas raw material prices. For cis - butadiene rubber, Zhenhua restarted, Zhejiang Petrochemical's maintenance continued, and Maoming Petrochemical will start a 50 - day maintenance soon [2]. - **Demand**: Tire production decreased overall, with semi - steel tire production at 69.36% (-3.63%) and full - steel tire production at 62.04% (-2.25%). The end - market resisted price increases, and trading weakened [2]. - **Inventory**: China's natural rubber social inventory was 106.2 tons (+0.5 tons), and cis - butadiene rubber sample enterprise inventory was 3.15 tons (+0.07 tons, +2.24%) [2]. 3.2 Key Events - **Thailand's Rainfall**: On the 19th, the weighted rainfall of natural rubber production reached 55.52mm/day, a new high in nearly a year.

Group 1: Investment Rating - No investment rating information is provided in the report. Group 2: Core View - In the short term, after the trading of low warehouse receipts and Southeast Asian natural disasters in the rubber sector, it has returned to a volatile pattern. Due to two consecutive weeks of slight inventory accumulation in butadiene rubber, it is currently in an inventory - building pattern with a trading logic of narrowing processing profits and short - term weak decline. In the medium term, the fundamental pressure of butadiene remains high, driving down the lower limit of the dynamic valuation of butadiene rubber. The short - and medium - term fundamentals of butadiene are downward - driven, and the spot price center gradually moves down in the pattern of weak reality and weak expectation. For butadiene rubber, as the cost side drops, the processing profit expands significantly. In a neutral fundamental pattern of butadiene rubber itself, the futures price reflects the expectation of profit contraction. Therefore, with the reduced weight of short - term macro - end trading and the weak industrial chain fundamentals, butadiene rubber returns to a volatile and pressured pattern after a short - term rebound. The subsequent focus is on whether the supply - demand pattern of butadiene rubber will improve stage - by - stage in late November and early December, mainly paying attention to the explicit inventory data of butadiene rubber [3]. Group 3: Summary by Directory Fundamental Tracking - **Futures Market**: For the butadiene rubber main contract (01 contract), the daily closing price decreased by 135 yuan/ton to 10,385 yuan/ton, the trading volume increased by 54,051 lots to 167,355 lots, the open interest decreased by 3,765 lots to 68,247 lots, and the trading volume increased by 276,699 ten - thousand yuan to 877,067 ten - thousand yuan [1]. - **Spread Data**: The basis of Shandong butadiene - futures main contract decreased by 12 to 115, the monthly spread (BR12 - BR01) remained unchanged at - 30. The prices of North China, East China, and South China private butadiene decreased by 100 yuan/ton respectively. The Shandong butadiene market price (delivery product) decreased by 150 yuan/ton to 10,500 yuan/ton. The prices of Qilu styrene - butadiene rubber (models 1502 and 1712) decreased by 100 yuan/ton respectively. The mainstream prices of butadiene in Jiangsu and Shandong decreased by 250 yuan/ton and 190 yuan/ton respectively [1]. - **Fundamental Indicators**: The butadiene rubber operating rate remained unchanged at 72.4895%, the theoretical full cost of butadiene rubber remained unchanged at 9,916 yuan/ton, and the profit of butadiene rubber remained unchanged at 784 yuan/ton [1]. Industry News - As of November 19, 2025, the latest inventory of butadiene in East China ports was about 39,800 tons, an increase of 10,800 tons from the previous period. There were still imported vessels arriving at the port during the period, the downstream raw material digestion speed was normal, and the butadiene inventory increased significantly. - As of November 19, 2025, the domestic butadiene rubber inventory was 31,500 tons, an increase of 7,000 tons from the previous period, a month - on - month increase of 2.24%. During this period, the buying on the raw material end was actively following up, the cost support of butadiene rubber was slightly stronger, the supply prices of Sinopec and PetroChina resources were raised, but the spot resources continued to be tight. The high - premium offers were difficult to get buying follow - up, and the private price - holding was also difficult to get terminal follow - up, with part of the transactions weakening.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - For crude oil, although the geopolitical premium has dissipated and OPEC's production increase is minimal with supply not yet surging, short - term oil prices should not be overly bearish. A range - trading strategy of buying low and selling high is maintained, but it's advisable to wait and see for now to verify OPEC's export price - support intention [2]. - For methanol, the futures market is in a weak downward trend. High port inventories persistently suppress prices and the monthly structure. Supply remains high while demand shows little change. The market is trading on weak - reality logic, and prices may further decline [4]. - For urea, prices are oscillating at the bottom and showing relative resilience. With improved demand and cost support, the downside is limited, and it's expected to build a bottom through oscillation. A strategy of buying on dips is recommended [7]. - For PVC, the supply - demand situation is poor with strong supply and weak demand in China. Although the valuation has dropped to a low level, it still can't support the current supply - demand imbalance. A strategy of short - selling on rallies is suggested in the medium term [12]. - For pure benzene and styrene, the port inventory of styrene is decreasing significantly, and with the seasonal peak in demand, styrene prices may stop falling temporarily [18]. - For polyethylene, the price is expected to remain in a low - level oscillation. The cost - driven downward trend has shifted to the issue of South Korean ethylene clearance [21]. - For polypropylene, in a situation of weak supply and demand with high inventory pressure, there is no prominent short - term contradiction. The price may be supported when the supply - surplus situation in the cost side changes in the first quarter of next year [23]. - For PX, it is expected to experience a slight inventory build - up in November. With a neutral valuation and weakening aromatics blending data, there is a risk of valuation correction [27]. - For PTA, the supply of unexpected outages is expected to decrease, and demand may remain high in the short term. However, PTA processing fees have limited upside, and there is a risk of PXN valuation correction [29]. - For ethylene glycol, the supply - demand outlook is weak. Although the inventory build - up may slow down, a strategy of short - selling on rallies is recommended in the medium term [32]. 3.

Core Viewpoints - The market is currently experiencing a short-term adjustment, with low market sentiment. However, the downward space for the index is considered limited, and the year-end adjustment presents a good opportunity for positioning for the coming year, particularly focusing on mid-cap blue chips [4][15]. Market Outlook - The short-term market adjustment does not alter the ongoing oscillating trend. The adjustment is influenced by both internal and external factors. Externally, there is a downward revision of the expectation for a decline in overseas risk-free interest rates in December. Internally, the risk appetite of high-risk investors is declining faster than that of low-risk investors. It is anticipated that the external factors may ease, and the risk appetite will gradually converge towards the middle. Overall, the future outlook remains stable with a mix of gains and losses, maintaining a sideways oscillation with a slight upward trend [5][16]. Industry Comparison - The layout for mid-cap blue chips is timely. Since March 2023, the market has seen a consensus expectation for a rally in both technology and dividend stocks. The report suggests that the trend of risk styles at both ends is nearing its end, and future investment opportunities lie in stocks with medium risk characteristics. The long-dormant mid-cap blue chip market is expected to rise again, making the current market adjustment a favorable time for positioning [6][17]. Industry Allocation - Investment opportunities are identified in medium-risk stocks, focusing on three main lines: 1. The manufacturing sector is shifting from "dream narratives" to "reality verification," emphasizing the need for investments based on orders and revenue verification, particularly in communications, electronics, power equipment, and machinery [7][18]. 2. The consumer sector, which has been quiet for years, is approaching a turning point. Many consumer stocks are undervalued, and with supply contraction, prices are expected to rise. Key areas of focus include the restaurant supply chain, second and third-tier liquor, snacks and beverages, hotels, human resources, and beauty care [7][18]. 3. The cyclical sector is undergoing a revaluation driven by technological empowerment and supply constraints. Attention should be given to new materials and strategic minor metals (such as antimony and rare earths), as well as industrial metals (copper and aluminum) that are experiencing improved supply-demand dynamics, along with traditional commodities like live pigs and rubber [7][18]. Thematic Investments - The report highlights several thematic investment areas: - The Google & Alibaba supply chain, where there is significant divergence in market expectations regarding AI development. The next phase may present opportunities across the entire supply chain from applications to large models and upstream computing power [8][19]. - Semiconductor expansion and domestic substitution, with expectations for domestic wafer fabs to expand production next year and the capital progress of domestic storage chip leaders. The development of domestic semiconductor materials is expected to accelerate amid international relations challenges [8][19]. - Solid-state batteries, where the market is closely monitoring industrial progress. The acceleration point for solid-state battery industrialization has emerged, with the order-driven phase beginning in the equipment/materials segment [8][19]. - Aerospace satellites, which are entering a development opportunity period with expected catalysts. The IPO progress of industry leaders is anticipated to accelerate, with various fields such as constellation networking and satellite bidding expected to see rapid implementation [8][20]. - Upstream price increases, driven by supply contraction and structural demand growth, are expected to provide price elasticity for related products, particularly in the upstream of the new energy industry, chemicals, and non-ferrous metals [8][20].
