1. Report Industry Investment Rating The report does not explicitly mention an overall industry investment rating. However, it provides mid - term outlooks for various energy and chemical products, including "oscillating", "oscillating strongly", "oscillating weakly", etc., which can be used as a reference for the investment outlook of individual products [266]. 2. Core View of the Report - The energy and chemical sector is in a complex situation. Chemical products generally follow the strong trend of crude oil. The geopolitical risk between Iran and Israel has intensified, leading to increased volatility in crude oil prices, which in turn affects the prices of downstream chemical products [1][2]. - The overall outlook for the energy and chemical sector is a strong - oscillating trend, and a long - short allocation strategy is recommended [3]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Market Views 3.1.1 Crude Oil - On June 19, SC2508 closed at 570.9 yuan/barrel, up 3.29%, and Brent2508 closed at 78.74 dollars/barrel, up 3.5%. - Geopolitical concerns in the Middle East dominate short - term oil price fluctuations. Although there have been attacks on energy infrastructure, there has been no substantial impact on crude oil production. Oil prices are expected to oscillate with high volatility [6]. 3.1.2 Asphalt - The main asphalt futures closed at 3695 yuan/ton. Spot prices in East China, Northeast China, and Shandong were 3770 yuan/ton, 3990 yuan/ton, and 3800 yuan/ton respectively. - Due to the escalation of the Iran - Israel geopolitical situation, asphalt prices have a geopolitical premium. However, in the medium - long term, the increase in heavy oil supply will put pressure on the asphalt cracking spread. The absolute price of asphalt is overvalued [7]. 3.1.3 High - Sulfur Fuel Oil - The main high - sulfur fuel oil contract closed at 3333 yuan/ton. - Geopolitical factors have led to a sharp increase in prices, but in the medium - long term, the increase in heavy oil supply will put pressure on the cracking spread. Overall, supply is increasing while demand is decreasing, and prices are expected to oscillate weakly [8][9]. 3.1.4 Low - Sulfur Fuel Oil - The main low - sulfur fuel oil contract closed at 3921 yuan/ton. - It follows the trend of crude oil. Currently, it has a low valuation and is facing various negative factors such as weak shipping demand and green energy substitution. It is expected to fluctuate with crude oil [10]. 3.1.5 LPG - On June 19, 2025, the PG 2508 contract closed at 4513 yuan/ton, up 1.28%. - Driven by rising crude oil prices, the supply pressure has been relieved, and the chemical demand has recovered.

The weekly operating rate reached a five - year high. It is expected to oscillate strongly [14][15]. 3.1.10 Short - Fiber - On June 19, the price of polyester short - fiber was 6800 (+ 55) yuan/ton. - The short - fiber industry has a good pattern. The rise in crude oil prices leads to a compensatory increase in the downstream industry chain. The processing fee has limited compression space. It is expected to oscillate strongly [15][16]. 3.1.11 Bottle Chip - On June 19, the price of polyester bottle chips increased with the rise of raw materials. - The processing fee is in an oscillating pattern.

It is expected to operate weakly [27]. 3.2 Variety Data Monitoring 3.2.1 Energy and Chemical Daily Index Monitoring - The report provides data on the basis, change values, and warehouse receipts of various products such as asphalt, high - sulfur fuel oil, low - sulfur fuel oil, etc. It also shows cross - variety spreads and their change values [28]. 3.2.2 Chemical Basis and Spread Monitoring - Although the report lists various products such as methanol, urea, styrene, etc., no specific data or analysis content is provided in the given text.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In the polyolefin industry, oil price surges suppress the cost - end, profits are compressed to the lowest level of the year, and inventories are differentiated. PE is recommended for positive spreads, while PP is recommended for short - positions in the medium - term [21]. - In the methanol industry, due to geopolitical conflicts, the market has a strong long - position sentiment. Short - term strategies are recommended for positive spreads, and it is necessary to track the situation in Iran and MTO dynamics [30]. - In the PVC and caustic soda industry, caustic soda supply still exerts pressure, demand is weak, and there are inventory risks. PVC has short - term price increases but long - term supply - demand contradictions. It is recommended to wait and see in the short - term and take short - positions in the medium - term [32][35]. - In the urea industry, the short - term futures market is affected by rising Middle - East FOB prices and domestic factory export orders. The market is expected to be in high - level oscillations, with a bullish bias [38]. - In the styrene industry, short - term geopolitical factors drive prices up, but there is a possibility of supply - demand weakening. It is recommended to wait and see in the short - term and look for short - position opportunities in the medium - term [43]. - In the polyester industry, PX, PTA, ethylene glycol, short - fiber, and bottle - chip have different supply - demand situations. Strategies vary from short - term strength to long - term supply - demand balance adjustments [47]. - In the crude oil industry, geopolitical premiums have declined, and the market is likely to continue high - level oscillations in the short - term. It is recommended to wait and see on the spot side and capture volatility - narrowing opportunities on the options side [52]. 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Ratings No investment ratings are provided in the report. 2. Report's Core Views Crude Oil - The short - term oil price may strengthen slightly due to macro - economic factors like stable US unemployment, potential Fed rate cuts, and progress in China - US trade talks, but the loose supply restricts the rebound space. Geopolitical conflicts may affect supply expectations. Suggest short - term participation in the rebound, with WTI in the range of [60, 70], Brent in [62, 72], and SC in [450, 500]. Consider long - volatility strategies in the options market [2]. Benzene Ethylene - Crude oil prices are oscillating. The benzene market has increasing supply and demand, but supply growth is greater. High imports are expected to continue. Benzene inventory de - stocking is difficult, dragging down benzene ethylene. Benzene ethylene supply increases while demand decreases, with inventory starting to accumulate. Maintain a short - selling approach, paying attention to raw material resonance and macro risks [8]. PE and PP - PE inventory accumulates at the beginning of the month, with slight de - stocking of social inventory. Supply and demand are in a state of pre - de - stocking, with limited upward and downward drivers. PP has new capacity coming online from June to July, facing seasonal demand slumps and inventory accumulation pressure. Suggest short - selling at high prices [13]. Polyester Industry - PX supply has increased, but there is a de - stocking expectation in June. It is expected to be in a high - level oscillation. PTA's short - term support is strong, and it is advisable to short at high levels. Ethylene glycol's supply and demand structure is good in June, with an expected short - term range oscillation. Short - fiber's absolute price fluctuates with raw materials, and attention should be paid to factory production cuts. Bottle - chip's processing fees are expected to be supported in June [34]. Methanol - The supply side is loose, and the demand side's MTO load increases while downstream profits decline. The price should be range - traded between 2200 - 2350, and inventory may shift from implicit to explicit accumulation [38]. Urea - The current market has high supply, weak demand, and inventory accumulation, putting downward pressure on the market. Only export expectations provide limited support. Pay attention to the start of agricultural top - dressing in mid - June and export port collection progress [41]. PVC and Caustic Soda - Caustic soda's price decline is due to cost reduction. Supply has increased overall, and demand is supported by alumina. Consider holding 7 - 9 calendar spreads. PVC may oscillate in the short term, but in the long run, supply - demand contradictions are prominent. Maintain a short - selling approach [50]. 3.
