Report Industry Investment Rating There is no relevant content provided in the given documents. Core Viewpoints - In October 2025, after a sharp decline, the pig price rebounded. However, farmers' reluctance to sell due to pressure on holding pigs still causes concerns before the Spring Festival. The group enterprises' volume reduction and price support, combined with the second - fattening support, have relieved the near - end pressure. But with a high basic inventory this year, there are still great concerns about the year - end pig price. [1][3] - The current open interest of the live hog index has reached a record high of 320,000 lots, with nearly 10 billion yuan of settled funds. The market is highly divided. The forward curve shows a contango structure, and the near - end futures price has a large discount to the spot price. The futures price reflects a certain pessimistic expectation of the year - end slaughter pressure. Given that the absolute price has fallen below the cash cost of some farmers, short - selling should be cautious. [3] - The reduction of live hog production capacity mainly occurs in two stages: first, reducing the slaughter weight, which was initially achieved in October this year mainly by reducing pressure on holding pigs and shortening the breeding time; second, reducing the capacity of breeding sows, which is driven by the passive elimination of breeding sows by farmers when the piglet slaughter incurs significant losses. [3] - Looking forward to the end of 2025, the feed sector lacks strong positive factors, and the continuously decreasing live hog breeding cost leads to a slow reduction of production capacity. The cyclical pressure of the sector is an important factor dragging down the pig price. The current industry is in the first stage of weight reduction, and there is still a long way to go before entering the second stage of reducing the inventory of breeding sows. [5] Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 2025 October and November Review and Outlook - In the context of capacity reduction in October 2025, the industry as a whole started to reduce the slaughter weight. The hog - grain ratio has fallen below 5:1, and the piglet price has dropped to around 175 yuan per head. The rapid deterioration of breeding profits will drive the industry into the capacity reduction stage. [3][5] - The expected increase in feed imports after the smooth progress of the new round of Sino - US negotiations in October has limited impact on the near - end pig price. The current group enterprises still have room to reduce the breeding cost, but the average industry cost is still around 13 yuan per kilogram. [4] 2025 Fourth - Quarter Outlook - The futures and spot price trends are expected to remain at the bottom due to the lack of strong positive factors on the supply side. The 2601 contract is recommended to be observed, and it is advisable to buy the 2607 contract on dips below 12,000 points in the medium term. For options, a covered call strategy combination can be held. [5] 2025 October Live Hog Futures and Spot Price Review - In October 2025, the agricultural product index fell to a new low for the year, with the feed and breeding industry chain leading the decline. The live hog spot price broke through the support level and hit a new low for the same period in recent years, and the piglet price accelerated its decline. [8][15][18] - The feed price fluctuated and declined overall in October 2025. The low downstream frozen product inventory provided some support for the white - strip price, while the low meat - poultry price dragged down the pig price. [21][24][30] - From August to October in the third quarter of this year, the cumulative decline of the pig price exceeded 18%. [39] Live Hog Production Capacity and Slaughter Situation - The inventory of breeding sows is currently in the green and reasonable range, with a cumulative decline of about 1% compared to July 2025. The discount rate of culled sows increased in October, and the production efficiency per sow has improved. [44][45][46] - The slaughter volume is expected to continue to increase, but the growth rate may not be large. [52] Listed Pig Enterprises - In the first half of 2025, the overall profitability of leading companies expanded, but some turned to losses in the third quarter. [58] Near - End Supply - Demand Fundamentals - In October, the slaughter volume increased significantly, and the slaughter weight decreased month - on - month but remained at a high level year - on - year. The slaughter weight in the fourth quarter is the main factor affecting the spot price. [62][64][67] - The current monthly average profitability is at the historical median. The profit of purchasing piglets returned to near the break - even point in July, and the fattening loss continued to widen from August to October. [75] October Live Hog Futures Price Situation - In October, the live hog futures price reached a record low with increasing open interest. The live hog index hit a new low, and the open interest increased significantly both month - on - month and year - on - year. [77][78] - The futures - to - feed price ratio of live hogs on the market is close to the historical low level. The 2603 and 2605 contracts have fallen below the breeding cost. The near - month contracts lack confidence in the spot price, and the 2511 contract finally entered the delivery month with a large discount. [84][86][89]

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In the long - term, as the process of capacity optimization progresses, the market supply - demand relationship will gradually improve, and the far - month contracts are relatively supported due to the expectation of policy - driven capacity reduction. In the medium - term, with high supply pressure, pig prices are likely to fall rather than rise. In the short - term, pig prices may fluctuate due to multiple factors. Currently, the supply pressure remains high, and the oversupply situation is difficult to fundamentally change in the short - term, so pig prices may continue to be under pressure, and the market may maintain range - bound fluctuations [7][117].

Future Outlook - The same as the core viewpoints, in the long - term, the supply - demand relationship will improve; in the medium - term, pig prices are likely to fall; in the short - term, prices may fluctuate.

For single - side trading, take a range - bound approach and gradually stop profiting on previous short positions; for arbitrage, consider reverse arbitrage; for options, wait and see for the time being [8][118][119].
