Report Industry Investment Rating - Unilateral: Cautiously bullish, opportunistic cash-and-carry arbitrage in futures and spot markets [3] - Inter - delivery spread: On the sidelines [3] - Inter - commodity: None [3] Core Viewpoints - Urea prices are temporarily stable, but new order follow - up has slowed. The market sentiment has improved due to export quota news, with some regions' agricultural autumn fertilizers ending, compound fertilizer autumn fertilizers winding up, and melamine's operation slightly increasing. In the medium - to - long - term, urea supply and demand remain relatively loose. The fourth - quarter gas - based plant maintenance is expected to start in December. The export sentiment still affects the urea market, and the newly - obtained export quota and the Indian import tender may support the spot market. Attention should be paid to the start - up rate of compound fertilizers in the Northeast, raw material procurement rhythm, and the national light - storage rhythm [1][2] Summary by Directory 1.

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core View of the Report - Export sentiment boost in the short term cannot offset weak domestic demand, and the rebound space is limited under high inventory pressure [5] Summary by Related Catalogs Fundamentals and Views - About 600,000 tons of new quotas have been implemented, boosting market sentiment, and the overseas price difference supports a short - term price rebound [4] - Coal prices remain stable, the operating rate of gas - based enterprises decreases seasonally, and the relief of cost pressure supports the bottom [4] - The autumn fertilizer season is ending, the operating rate of compound fertilizers is declining, agricultural demand is weakening, downstream procurement is cautious, and enterprise inventories remain at a high level [4] - The industry's daily average output is 198,000 tons (year - on - year increase of 14,400 tons), and the operating rate of 84.6% has reached a high for the same period. The oversupply situation remains unchanged [4] Urea Fundamental Data Inventory - Information on China's weekly urea enterprise inventory, urea inventory in Guangdong and Guangxi, and urea inventory (ports + inland) is presented in time - series charts from 2021 - 2025 [7][8][9] Futures and Warehouse Receipts - Data on the position volume, trading volume, total warehouse receipt quantity, and total valid warehouse receipt forecasts of the urea futures main contract are shown in time - series charts from 2021 - 2025 [10][11][13][14] Price and Spread - Time - series charts from 2021 - 2025 show the market price of small - particle urea in Henan and Shandong, the basis, the price difference between large and small particles, and the seasonal spreads between different contract months (1 - 5, 5 - 9, 9 - 1) [17][19][20][22] Cost and Profit - Time - series charts from 2021 - 2025 present the production costs and profits of urea produced by fixed - bed, natural gas, and coal - water slurry gasification methods, as well as the production cost, gross profit, capacity utilization rate, and inventory of compound fertilizers in Shandong [28][30][32][38][39][40] Production and Capacity Utilization - Time - series charts from 2021 - 2025 show the production enterprise's pending order days, capacity utilization rate, total daily output of urea, and the capacity utilization rate of compound fertilizers [33][35][37][38] External Market and Related Commodities - Time - series charts from 2021 - 2025 display the FOB prices of Chinese and Middle - Eastern small - particle urea, the spot price of thermal coal, and the port inventory of thermal coal [42][44][46]

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2. Core View of the Report The sentiment in the domestic urea market has cooled, with supply being ample and demand showing a downward trend. Although the issuance of the fourth batch of export quotas will boost market sentiment in the short - term, the urea fundamentals remain loose in the medium to long - term. Attention should be paid to the downstream acceptance of price increases [5]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Market Review - **Futures Market**: Urea futures fluctuated weakly, closing at 1660 (-8/-0.48%) [3]. - **Spot Market**: Factory prices rose, but trading was average. Factory prices in different regions were as follows: Henan 1580 - 1590 yuan/ton, Shandong small - sized particles 1590 - 1600 yuan/ton, Hebei small - sized particles 1590 - 1600 yuan/ton, Shanxi medium and small - sized particles 1500 - 1550 yuan/ton, Anhui small - sized particles 1560 - 1570 yuan/ton, and Inner Mongolia 1420 - 1490 yuan/ton [3]. Important Information On November 10, the daily urea production was 19.51 tons, 0.28 tons less than the previous working day and 1.08 tons more than the same period last year. The operating rate was 83.41%, 1.89% higher than 81.52% in the same period last year [4]. Logical Analysis - **Supply**: Maintenance devices have gradually resumed operation, and the average daily output has increased to around 19.6 tons [5]. - **Demand**: The issuance of the fourth batch of quotas has made the impact of international prices on the domestic market more prominent. The compound fertilizer production in Central and North China has basically ended, and the demand is weakening. The inventory of urea production enterprises has slightly increased to around 158 tons [5]. - **Price Trend**: In the short - term, domestic demand is limited, and the spot market sentiment is still sluggish. Although the issuance of the new quota will boost the market sentiment, the overall domestic demand will enter a "vacuum period" again after the autumn fertilizer season. In the medium to long - term, the urea fundamentals are still loose [5]. Trading Strategy - **Single - side**: Short positions are recommended [6]. - **Arbitrage**: Hold a wait - and - see attitude [6].

Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Core Viewpoints - The rebound of urea prices is due to improved agricultural demand and export quotas, but its sustainability remains to be verified.
