Key Insights - The global commodity market in 2025 shows a clear divergence, with energy and agricultural prices declining while precious metals (like gold and silver) and industrial metals (like copper) continue to rise and reach new highs. This situation is influenced by changes in global demand, geopolitical tensions, monetary policy adjustments, and the development of the new energy industry. This divergence is expected to persist into 2026, with energy prices anticipated to further decline due to oversupply, while precious metal prices are projected to continue rising [1]. Energy - The global crude oil market in 2025 experienced significant volatility, with Brent crude prices fluctuating between $60 and $70 per barrel by year-end. Geopolitical tensions and policy changes were key drivers of price movements, with prices peaking at $83 per barrel early in the year due to U.S. sanctions on Russia [3][5]. - In the second half of 2025, the market shifted from being geopolitically driven to one characterized by oversupply and weak demand, leading to a downward trend in oil prices. OPEC+ adjusted its strategy from production cuts to phased increases, while U.S. production reached historical highs, resulting in rapid inventory accumulation [5][6]. - For 2026, the oil market is expected to face severe oversupply pressures, with Brent crude prices projected to drop further. Analysts predict a price range of $56 to $60 per barrel, with some forecasts suggesting a potential dip to $51 per barrel in early 2026 [7]. Natural Gas - The global natural gas market in 2025 showed a "high then low" pattern, with prices initially rising due to cold weather and geopolitical factors but later declining as new U.S. production came online and demand slowed in Asia [8][10]. - In 2026, the market is expected to transition from a "tight balance" to "periodic oversupply," driven by increased LNG production from the U.S., Qatar, and Canada. Despite ample supply, demand is projected to rise by 2%, providing some price support [10]. Uranium - The uranium market in 2025 transitioned from "de-bubbling" to "structural support," with prices rebounding from a low of approximately $63 per pound to around $81-83 per pound by year-end. This was driven by renewed demand from nuclear power and AI data centers [11][13]. - For 2026, expectations are for uranium prices to accelerate upward, with forecasts suggesting prices could reach $91 per pound, with some estimates as high as $135 per pound due to increasing demand and supply constraints [14]. Precious Metals - Precious metals experienced a "historic rally" in 2025, with gold prices rising approximately 70% and silver prices soaring over 160%. This was fueled by central bank purchases, ETF inflows, and a low-interest-rate environment [15][17]. - For 2026, major financial institutions predict continued bullish trends for gold, with average prices expected to range from $4,500 to $5,000 per ounce, driven by central bank strategies and concerns over U.S. dollar credit [18][19]. Industrial Metals - The industrial metals market in 2025 was characterized by extreme differentiation, with copper prices reaching historical highs due to demand from AI data centers and global grid upgrades. Copper prices exceeded $12,700 per ton [21]. - In 2026, copper and tin are expected to remain strong, with copper potentially reaching $15,000 per ton, while tin prices may rise to $44,000 per ton due to ongoing supply constraints [28]. Agricultural Products - Cocoa prices fell significantly in 2025 after reaching a peak in 2024, while coffee prices exhibited a high-level fluctuation, with expectations for a return to balance in 2026 as supply improves [25][27]. - For 2026, cocoa is expected to see a surplus of about 150,000 tons, leading to price declines, while coffee prices are projected to drop significantly due to increased production in Brazil and Colombia [29][32].

Report Industry Investment Ratings No relevant information provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The overall market shows complex trends, with different commodities and financial products having their own characteristics. Some are influenced by supply - demand fundamentals, some by geopolitical factors, and others by macro - economic policies and seasonal factors. The market rhythm switches quickly, and most products are in a state of oscillation, with different potential investment opportunities and risks [2][3][14] - Different industries have different outlooks. For example, some industries like polycrystalline silicon and manganese silicon are expected to have a relatively positive trend, while others such as urea and PVC may face certain challenges in supply - demand balance and price trends [13][18][28] Summary by Related Catalogs Precious Metals and Base Metals - **Precious Metals**: International gold prices continued a moderate upward trend after the breakthrough, while silver, platinum, and palladium accelerated their rise, with a gain of over 10%. The Fed's easing prospects and geopolitical risks support the strength of precious metals. The spot shortage expectation makes silver, platinum, and palladium more favored by funds, and the gold - silver ratio has dropped significantly below the average. However, exchange restrictions are frequent, and market volatility is extremely high [2] - **Copper**: Copper prices continued to rise strongly last Friday. The Shanghai copper weighted reached a maximum of 102,700 yuan, and it is expected that the London copper will open at $12,700 - $12,800. The market has quickly reached the bullish targets of most overseas institutions for 2026. The target price of the copper market is raised, with the London copper at about $13,100 and the Shanghai copper at about 104,000 yuan [3] - **Aluminum**: The aluminum market's fundamentals are neutral, with poor apparent demand and spot feedback. Shanghai aluminum mainly followed the upward trend, with relatively mild fluctuations. Long - positions should be held with the 40 - day moving average as the support [4] - **Zinc**: In late December, domestic smelter overhauls increased, supporting the adjustment of Shanghai zinc above the annual line. In January, the pressure on the zinc ingot supply side is small, and with the late Spring Festival in 2026 and the expected good start, the consumption side is not pessimistic. Shanghai zinc is expected to oscillate in the range of 22,800 - 23,800 yuan/ton [7] Energy and Chemicals - **Fuel Oil & Low - Sulfur Fuel Oil**: High - sulfur fuel oil supply is mainly affected by geopolitical factors, with the shipping rhythm in the Middle East and Russia slowing down. The demand side may be boosted by improved refinery profits and the US blockade of Venezuelan oil exports. Singapore's inventory continues to accumulate, and the high - inventory pressure is still significant. Low - sulfur fuel oil supply is dominated by overseas refinery starts. The demand side of ship fuel consumption is continuously weak due to high - sulfur substitution [21] - **Asphalt**: Since December, the weekly shipment volume has remained below 400,000 tons, at a low level in the same period of the past four years. Last week, both social and factory inventories increased. The supply - demand of BU is marginally relaxed, but positive news has a significant boost. However, it will eventually return to the price - pressured pattern dominated by supply - demand relaxation [22] Agricultural Products - **Soybean & Bean Meal**: CBOT soybeans oscillated downward after reopening last Friday, and Dalian soybean meal rose first and then fell. In the future, attention should be paid to the specific export situation of US soybeans and whether the La Nina weather in South America can have a continuous impact [35] - **Cotton**: US cotton rebounded from a low level last week, and the weekly signing data improved, with increased Chinese purchases. Domestic Zhengzhou cotton rose continuously, and the market is bullish. Although this year's new cotton production has increased significantly, the commercial inventory is basically the same as the previous year, and the sales progress is relatively fast [42] Others - **Stock Index**: The previous trading day, the broader market oscillated with heavy volume, and the Shanghai Composite Index recorded an 8 - day consecutive gain. All major futures index contracts closed higher, with IC leading the gain. Industrial profits of large - scale enterprises from January to November showed a growth trend, and the RMB exchange rate broke "7" last week [47] - **Treasury Bonds**: On December 26, 2025, the 30 - year treasury bond futures had the largest increase of 0.36%. In December, the central bank's net MLF injection was 10 billion yuan, a consecutive tenth - month incremental renewal. Against the background of increased counter - cyclical adjustment policies, long - term interest rates have risen significantly recently [48]

Group 1: General Information - Report date: December 25, 2025 [2] - Reported industry: Eggs [1] - Research team: Agricultural Products Research Team, including Yu Lanlan, Lin Zhenlei, Wang Haifeng, Hong Chenliang, and Liu Youran [4] Group 2: Market Review and Operation Suggestions Market Review | Contract | Previous Settlement Price | Opening Price | Highest Price | Lowest Price | Closing Price | Change | Change Rate | Trading Volume | Open Interest | Change in Open Interest | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Egg 2601 | 3029 | 3016 | 3075 | 3016 | 3072 | 43 | 1.42% | 26237 | 39087 | -1106 | | Egg 2602 | 2881 | 2878 | 2950 | 2878 | 2947 | 66 | 2.29% | 180956 | 169411 | -20946 | | Egg 2603 | 2938 | 2935 | 2991 | 2935 | 2986 | 48 | 1.63% | 110457 | 173845 | -4281 | [7] Operation Suggestions - The spot egg price in China is weak today. The average price in the main producing areas is 2.90 yuan/jin, down 0.07 yuan/jin from yesterday; the average price in the main selling areas is 3.22 yuan/jin, down 0.07 yuan/jin from yesterday. The 02 contract rose 2.29%. The prices in the main selling areas of Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou all declined, and the red eggs in the northern producing areas also declined under pressure. The spot market is weak today. However, the futures market rose against the trend. The near - month main contracts rose with a reduction in positions, mainly due to the profit - taking of previous short positions rather than the impetus from the spot market. - Contracts 02 and 03 are off - season contracts and usually have a significant price drop from the pre - holiday high. Currently, there is no sign of a price increase before the holiday. If the spot price continues to fluctuate, short positions may make a comeback. For near - month contracts, consider shorting after a price increase or selling call options. For far - month contracts, due to the logic of production capacity reduction, they are generally bullish. However, since they have already started rising, the strategy is to build positions after a price drop and conduct rolling operations [8] Group 3: Industry News Inventory - As of the end of November 2025, the monthly inventory of laying hens in China was about 1.352 billion, down 0.52% month - on - month from 1.359 billion at the end of October and 1.368 billion at the end of September, ending the previous continuous growth. However, compared with 1.284 billion in the same period last year, the year - on - year increase was still 5.3%, indicating significant pressure on the supply side [9] Replenishment - In November 2025, the monthly output of laying hen chicks from sample enterprises was about 39.55 million, slightly up from 39.15 million in October but significantly down 13.5% from 45.69 million in the same period in 2024. The total replenishment from August to November 2025 was about 157.71 million, compared with about 180.11 million in the same period last year [9] Culling Volume - As of December 18, the culling volume of laying hens in the previous three weeks was 20.82 million, 19.84 million, and 19.67 million respectively, showing a continuous downward trend [9] Culling Age - As of December 18, the average culling age of laying hens was 486 days, the same as last week and 6 days earlier than last month [9][10] Group 4: Data Overview - The report provides multiple data charts, including the monthly inventory of laying hens in China, egg - laying chicken farming profit, the average price of eggs in the main producing areas, the seasonal trend of eggs in December, the basis of the egg 12 contract, and the spread between the egg 12 - 02 contracts, with data sources from Wind, Zhuochuang Information, and Trading Famen [12][14][15]

Group 1: General Information - Reported industry: Eggs [1] - Report date: December 24, 2025 [2] - Research team: Agricultural products research team including Yu Lanlan, Lin Zhenlei, Wang Haifeng, Hong Chenliang, and Liu Youran [4] Group 2: Market Review and Operation Suggestions Market Review - Today, the national egg price remained stable. The average price in the main producing areas was 2.97 yuan/jin, down 0.01 yuan/jin from yesterday; the average price in the main selling areas was 3.29 yuan/jin, also down 0.01 yuan/jin from yesterday. The 01 contract fell 1.01% [7] - The 2601 contract had a previous settlement price of 3058, opened at 3045, reached a high of 3045, a low of 3019, and closed at 3027, down 31 or -1.01%, with a trading volume of 18147 and an open interest of 42239, an increase of 4654. The 2602 contract had a previous settlement price of 2897, opened at 2885, reached a high of 2894, a low of 2873, and closed at 2876, down 21 or -0.72%, with a trading volume of 113934 and an open interest of 190357, an increase of 4038. The 2603 contract had a previous settlement price of 2951, opened at 2945, reached a high of 2954, a low of 2925, and closed at 2936, down 15 or -0.51%, with a trading volume of 66149 and an open interest of 178126, an increase of 1359 [7] Core View - In the first half of last week, the spot price of eggs stabilized at a low level and then rose slightly. The price increase areas were mainly concentrated in the two - lake powder egg area, while the red egg price remained stable. From the demand perspective, mid - to late December will gradually enter a small peak season with the expectation of double - holiday stocking. It is expected that the spot price will mainly fluctuate slightly, and neither a callback nor an increase will show a trend [8] - In the futures market, last week, the near - month contracts fluctuated at a low level, and the far - month contracts declined to some extent. Taking the 02 - 08 spread as an example, the current spot - peak season spread on the futures market reached more than 1300, the largest spread for the same period in the past 8 years, indicating that the market has been actively pricing in the expectation that the decline in next year's inventory will drive up the egg price. During the process of the expectation becoming a reality, there will be repeated twists and turns. Considering that the far - month contracts are currently fully priced, it is recommended that long - position investors wait for the far - month contracts to fully adjust before entering the market and adopt a rolling operation strategy. The near - month contracts lack topics. The 02 and 03 contracts are in the absolute off - season, and the positive impact of the inventory inflection point is relatively not obvious. However, for the price to go down, the spot price increase in the peak season of January needs to be lower than expected, and the time has not come. In the short term, there is insufficient driving force, and the contracts may fluctuate at a low level, waiting for the guidance of the spot price increase in January on the near - month contracts [8] Group 3: Industry News Inventory - As of the end of November 2025, the national monthly inventory of laying hens was about 1.352 billion, down 0.52% from the end of October (1.359 billion) and 1.368 billion at the end of September, ending the previous continuous growth. However, compared with 1.284 billion in the same period last year, the year - on - year increase still reached 5.3%, indicating significant pressure on the supply side [9] Replenishment - In November 2025, the monthly output of laying hen chicks of sample enterprises was about 39.55 million, slightly increasing from 39.15 million in October but significantly decreasing by 13.5% compared with 45.69 million in the same period in 2024. The total replenishment in the past 4 months (August to November 2025) was about 157.71 million, compared with about 180.11 million in the same period last year [9] Group 4: Data Overview Elimination Quantity - Recently, the trend of elimination quantity has decreased. According to Zhuochuang Information, in the three weeks up to December 18, the national culling volume of laying hens was 20.82 million, 19.84 million, and 19.67 million respectively, showing a continuous downward trend [17] Elimination Age - As of December 18, the average culling age of laying hens was 486 days, the same as last week and 6 days earlier than last month [17]

Near - month contracts may experience low - level fluctuations in the short term, waiting for the guidance of the spot price increase in January [8]. 3. Summary by Section 3.1 Market Review and Operation Suggestions Market Review | Contract | Pre - settlement Price | Open Price | High Price | Low Price | Close Price | Change | Change Percentage | Volume | Open Interest | Change in Open Interest | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 2601 | 3068 | 3056 | 3077 | 3041 | 3049 | - 19 | - 0.62% | 25852 | 47063 | 10016 | | 2602 | 2902 | 2888 | 2918 | 2884 | 2888 | - 14 | - 0.48% | 141072 | 186319 | - 1370 | | 2603 | 2952 | 2950 | 2969 | 2936 | 2948 | - 4 | - 0.14% | 81349 | 176767 | 2185 | [7] - The average price of eggs in the main producing areas is 2.98 yuan/jin, a decrease of 0.09 yuan/jin from the previous day; the average price in the main selling areas is 3.30 yuan/jin, a decrease of 0.02 yuan/jin from the previous day.

Operation Suggestions - For far - month contracts, since the current pricing is relatively full, it is recommended that long - position investors wait for full adjustment and adopt a rolling operation strategy.
