Report Summary Report Date August 18, 2025 Report Industry Investment Rating The report does not provide an overall industry investment rating. Core Viewpoints - The report analyzes the fundamentals, market trends, and investment outlooks of various energy and chemical commodities, including PX, PTA, MEG, rubber, synthetic rubber, asphalt, LLDPE, PP, caustic soda, pulp, glass, methanol, urea, styrene, soda ash, LPG, propylene, PVC, fuel oil, low-sulfur fuel oil, and the container shipping index (European line). Each commodity has its own specific market conditions and trends, with different investment suggestions and trend intensities [2][11][12]. Summary by Commodity PX, PTA, MEG - **PX**: Supply is increasing while demand is decreasing, but terminal demand is improving. The processing fee is downward, but the improvement in terminal demand may limit the downside space of the single - sided price. The trend intensity is 0 [11]. - **PTA**: Demand is improving month - on - month, and the single - sided price has turned into a volatile market. The 9 - 1 month spread is expected to continue the reverse spread strategy. The polyester start - up rate is increasing, and the supply is relatively stable. The trend intensity is 0 [12]. - **MEG**: Supply and demand are both increasing. The single - sided price of ethylene glycol is in a volatile market. The 9 - 1 month spread should be operated within the range of - 50 to 0, and a 1 - 5 reverse spread strategy can be adopted. The overall supply is at a high level, and the inventory is accumulating. The trend intensity is 0 [12][13]. Rubber - **Rubber**: It is in a volatile operation. The trading volume and open interest in the futures market have increased, and the spot price of some varieties has changed slightly. The trend intensity is 0 [14][15]. Synthetic Rubber - **Synthetic Rubber**: The upside space is narrowing. In the short term, the increase in butadiene arrivals weakens the support for the synthetic rubber industry chain. In the medium term, it is still in a range - bound market. The trend intensity is 0 [19][21]. Asphalt - **Asphalt**: The shipment is not good, and it is difficult for crude oil to be bullish. The production has decreased slightly, and the inventory in both factories and social warehouses has decreased. It follows the oil price in a range - bound market. The trend intensity is 0 [22][36]. LLDPE - **LLDPE**: It is in a range - bound market. The cost is decreasing due to the decline in crude oil prices. The supply pressure is increasing, but the demand is expected to improve in the later stage. The inventory is at a relatively low level year - on - year and has stopped accumulating. The trend intensity is 0 [37][38]. PP - **PP**: The trend is weak, but short - selling at low levels should be cautious. The cost is weak, the demand has no obvious bright spots, and the supply pressure is increasing. However, there is still uncertainty in the cost, and the low - level short - selling should be vigilant. The trend intensity is 0 [41][42]. Caustic Soda - **Caustic Soda**: It should be treated bullishly. The demand is continuously expanding, especially the demand from the alumina industry. The export support is still strong, but the weakness of chlorine - consuming downstream industries may limit the profit expansion. The trend intensity is 1 [47][48]. Pulp - **Pulp**: It is in a volatile operation. The port inventory is decreasing, and the international and domestic pulp mills have raised prices. The downstream product capacity utilization rate is rising, and the demand provides stable support. The trend intensity is 0 [50][53][54]. Glass - **Glass**: The price of the original sheet is stable. The spot price has declined slightly, and the downstream purchasing enthusiasm is general. The trend intensity is - 1 [55][56]. Methanol - **Methanol**: It is under short - term downward pressure in a volatile market, but the downside space is narrowing. The port inventory is accumulating rapidly, and the 01 contract is weak in the short term. In the medium term, it is still in a volatile pattern. The trend intensity is - 1 [58][61]. Urea - **Urea**: It is in a range - bound operation. The enterprise inventory has increased, and the domestic demand is weak. In the short term, the market is reluctant to short - sell at the support level. In the long term, it is recommended to short - sell at high levels when the policy is clear. The trend intensity is 0 [63][65][66]. Styrene - **Styrene**: The profit is being compressed. The market is mainly volatile, with strong downstream bottom - fishing sentiment in the short term, but the continuous replenishment power in the peak season is insufficient. The trend intensity is 0 [67][68]. Soda Ash - **Soda Ash**: The spot market has little change. The price is oscillating at a low level, the supply is at a high level, and the downstream demand is tepid. The trend intensity is - 1 [69][71]. LPG and Propylene - **LPG**: The short - term valuation is reasonable, and it is in a volatile operation. - **Propylene**: Supply and demand are tightening, and the price has certain support. The trend intensity of both is 0 [74][80]. PVC - **PVC**: The trend is weak. The production is at a high level, the demand is weak, the inventory is accumulating, and the export competitiveness is affected by the anti - dumping tax. The strategy should be bearish, and the opportunity of long caustic soda and short PVC can be concerned. The trend intensity is - 1 [83][84]. Fuel Oil and Low - Sulfur Fuel Oil - **Fuel Oil**: The futures price has a slight rebound, and the short - term weakness continues. - **Low - Sulfur Fuel Oil**: The night - session price has risen, and the high - low sulfur spread in the overseas spot market has slightly rebounded. The trend intensity of both is 0 [86]. Container Shipping Index (European Line) - **Container Shipping Index (European Line)**: It is in a volatile consolidation, and the short positions in the October contract can be held as appropriate. The freight rates of European and US - West routes in the shipping index have declined. The trend intensity is not provided in the text [88].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The unilateral investment rating is neutral; the recommendation for the PL01 - 02 inter - period is reverse arbitrage; there is no recommendation for cross - variety [3] 2. Core View of the Report - The overall supply - side start - up has increased slightly month - on - month. Although the maintenance plan of Shandong Zhenhua previously supported prices, the new production capacity of a 280,000 - ton K - COT device in Shandong was released, and the Tianhong PDH device is expected to restart. With the continuous increase in supply, the propylene price continued to be weakly sorted. The downstream start - up showed a mixed trend. The profit of propylene oxide dropped significantly, and its start - up also declined. The start - up of butanol decreased significantly, while the start - up of octanol increased rapidly. The start - up of the main downstream PP increased slightly, but the purchasing enthusiasm was not strong, and the start - up of the PP downstream was also weak. Overall, the downstream demand for propylene provided a small - scale, phased support, but the resilience was still insufficient. Later, attention should be paid to the purchasing rhythm of the main downstream industries during the peak seasons of "Golden September and Silver October". The cost of crude oil weakened, and the decline in Saudi CP drove down the propane price, resulting in a downward shift in the cost support for propylene [2] 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Propylene Basis Structure - The report includes figures on the closing price of the propylene main contract, the propylene basis in East China and North China, the propylene 01 - 05 contract, and the market prices of propylene in East China and Shandong [7][10][13] 3.2 Propylene Production Profit and Capacity Utilization - It covers figures on the difference between China's propylene CFR and Japan's naphtha CFR, propylene capacity utilization, PDH production gross profit and capacity utilization, MTO production gross profit, methanol - to - olefin capacity utilization, propylene naphtha cracking production gross profit, and the capacity utilization of the main crude oil refineries [18][25][32] 3.3 Propylene Import and Export Profit - The report presents figures on the price differences between South Korea's FOB and China's CFR, Japan's CFR and China's CFR, Southeast Asia's CFR and China's CFR, and propylene import profit [35][39] 3.4 Profit and Capacity Utilization of Propylene Downstream Industries - It includes figures on the production profit and capacity utilization of PP powder, propylene oxide, n - butanol, octanol, acrylic acid, acrylonitrile, and phenol - acetone [41][42][56][65] 3.5 Propylene Inventory - The report has figures on propylene in - plant inventory and PP powder in - plant inventory [67][68]

Report Industry Investment Rating - The unilateral strategy is rated as neutral [3] Core View - The EG price is fluctuating without a clear driving force. In the spot and futures markets, the closing price of the EG main contract and the spot price in the East China market both decreased slightly. The production profit of ethylene - made EG and coal - made syngas EG increased slightly. The port inventory is expected to continue to accumulate slightly. The domestic supply is on an increasing trend, but overseas device operation is not smooth, and the increase in port inventory is lower than expected. The overall supply - demand contradiction in August is not significant [1][2][3] Summary by Directory Price and Basis - The closing price of the EG main contract was 4,406 yuan/ton, a decrease of 26 yuan/ton (-0.59%) from the previous trading day. The EG spot price in the East China market was 4,488 yuan/ton, a decrease of 18 yuan/ton (-0.40%) from the previous trading day. The EG spot basis in the East China market (based on the 2509 contract) was 76 yuan/ton, unchanged from the previous day [1] Production Profit and Operating Rate - The production profit of ethylene - made EG was - 46 US dollars/ton, an increase of 3 US dollars/ton from the previous day. The production profit of coal - made syngas EG was - 30 yuan/ton, an increase of 3 yuan/ton from the previous day. Domestically, the load of ethylene glycol syngas production has returned to a high level and can be further increased under favorable conditions. Non - coal EO - EG co - production devices have actions/plans to switch from EO to EG, with a moderately high overall load [1][2] International Price Difference - No specific data or analysis on international price differences are provided in the given text Downstream Production, Sales and Operating Rate - In July, the terminal conducted centralized restocking, and the inventory pressure of filament was greatly relieved. It is expected that the polyester load will remain stable in the short term. Attention should be paid to the order connection in August [2] Inventory Data - According to CCF data, the MEG inventory in the main ports of East China was 55.3 tons, an increase of 3.7 tons from the previous period. According to Longzhong data, it was 48.6 tons, an increase of 5.9 tons from the previous period. The total actual arrival at the main ports last week was 9.6 tons, and the port inventory increased slightly. The planned arrival at the East China main ports this week is 14.1 tons, and it is expected that the main ports will continue to accumulate inventory slightly. The balance sheet in August shows a slight inventory accumulation, but the increase in port inventory lacks sustainability [1][2]
