1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided in the report. 2. Core Views of the Report - The current core contradictions affecting the propylene trend include weak overall chemical sentiment, individual device fluctuations affecting spot prices, sufficient supply of major downstream PP, and strong cost - side propane. The propylene 03 contract is expected to oscillate between 5700 - 6200 yuan/ton. Short - term "anti - involution" and high - energy - consumption control may drive the disk valuation to repair periodically [1][2]. - The near - end trading is affected by the loose fundamentals and the weak PP trend. The far - end trading faces supply - side production expectations, insufficient PP terminal demand, and cost - side supply pressure [5][10]. - The market is in an oscillatory and weak state. Short - term small rebounds may occur under the influence of "anti - involution" and high - energy - consumption control. Attention should be paid to policy implementation and PDH - end maintenance [17]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1 Core Contradictions and Strategy Recommendations 3.1.1 Core Contradictions - Chemical sentiment was weak this week, but there was a low - level rebound on Friday night due to "anti - involution" and high - energy - consumption project control. Spot prices are easily affected by individual device fluctuations, with the basis strengthening significantly. The supply - demand difference has not changed much, with some devices under maintenance and some restarting. The downstream PP supply is sufficient, and the price difference with propylene has shrunk significantly, suppressing the propylene price. The PDH cost is high, and the profit is in a continuous loss state, with rumors of some PDH maintenance [1][2]. 3.1.2 Trading - Type Strategy Recommendations - **Market Positioning**: Oscillatory and weak, with the PL03 price range at 5700 - 6200 yuan/ton. - **Unilateral Strategy**: Overall oscillatory and weak, with possible short - term small rebounds under the influence of "anti - involution" and high - energy - consumption control. Attention should be paid to policy implementation and PDH - end maintenance [17]. - **Basis, Calendar Spread, and Hedging Arbitrage Strategy Recommendations** - **Basis Strategy**: Oscillatory contraction. The basis may shrink from a high level next week [18]. - **Calendar Spread Strategy**: Go short on the far - month contract when the spread is high. High - energy - consumption control has a greater impact on the far - month contract [19]. - **Hedging Arbitrage Strategy**: Expand the PP - PL spread when it is low and wait and see; expand the PL/PG ratio and wait and see [19]. 3.1.3 Industrial Customer Operation Recommendations - **Price Range Forecast**: The propylene price is expected to be between 5700 - 6200 yuan/ton, with a current volatility of 0.1335 and a historical percentage of 0.7448 over three years [21]. - **Hedging Strategy Table**: For inventory management, when the finished - product inventory is high, short - sell propylene futures and sell call options.
