Market Analysis and Suggestions 3.1 Overall Market Trend - There has been no obvious trending market recently, and the futures market has fluctuated widely around the news of MSK's cabin opening [2]. 3.2 Future Market Outlook - After the 02 contract, the market depends on the spot trend. The contradiction lies in the peak height and time of the freight rate in January. Historically, the freight rate peaks 4 - 5 weeks before the Spring Festival, but high capacity in January may suppress the increase [2]. 3.3 Trading Suggestions - Currently, the risk - reward ratio for both shorting and going long is not high, so it is recommended to wait and see. In the short - term, the downside space for the 04 contract is small, and attention should be paid to short - selling opportunities when it follows the spot or recovers the basis. For the far - month contracts, a positive spread trading strategy can be considered, and attention should be paid to short - selling opportunities for the 10 contract [2][3]. 4. Related News - On December 17, the head of Mossad claimed that Iran still desired to build nuclear weapons, increasing the possibility of further conflict between the two countries [5].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints - The 12 - contract follows the delivery logic. P1 is announced as 1510.56 points (lower than expected), and P2 and P3 are expected to be between 1700 - 1750 points [3]. - The valuation of the 02 - contract is moderately high. It is expected to fluctuate in the short - term and follow the spot price trend later. The current spot market is strong and recovering. Historically, the freight rate peaks usually occur 4 - 5 weeks before the Spring Festival (corresponding to mid - to late January 2026). However, the high shipping capacity in January 2026 may suppress the peak. At the current valuation, it is recommended to wait and see [3]. - The short - term downside space of the 04 - contract is limited. Attention should be paid to the short - selling opportunities when the 04 - contract may rise following the near - month contracts [3]. 3.

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content found Group 2: Core Viewpoints of the Report - The 12 contract is moving towards the delivery logic, with P1 around 1550 points. P2 and P3 are benchmarked against the second - half of December cabin space, and the prices are expected to be stable with a slight increase. The 02 contract has a neutral valuation, follows the spot price in the short - term, and there are expectations for the peak season. Despite high capacity, the spot price in January is not expected to be overly pessimistic due to the late Spring Festival, strong cargo volume on the European line this year, and the price cut in December benefiting the price increase in January. If the peak season is gradually realized, the 02 contract may have more upside potential. The 04 contract is still recommended to be shorted on rallies [3] Group 3: Summary by Relevant Catalogs Futures Market - EC2512 closed at 1636.7 yesterday, up 0.34%, with a basis of - 153.1, a trading volume of 705, an open interest of 4286, and an open interest change of - 215.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The market on Wednesday showed a weak and fluctuating trend. Under the pressure of high capacity in December and January, short - sellers were actively trading, and the peak - season price increase was limited [2]. - The valuation of the 12 - contract is neutral and will gradually follow the delivery logic, with a significant decrease in open interest. The 02 - contract is expected to mainly follow the spot price in the short term. Before the peak season in December is realized, it's hard for the market to believe January is still a peak season. However, considering the late Chinese New Year this year and the good overall volume of China - Europe shipping, it's difficult to prove or disprove the non - peak season in the short term. If the peak season is gradually realized later, the 02 - contract may have more upside potential. The 04 - contract is still recommended to be shorted on rallies and is more likely to fluctuate in the short term [3]. 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The Tuesday trading session saw the market give back some of the gains from Monday. The valuation of the EC2512 contract is considered neutral, and it will gradually follow the delivery logic, with a significant decrease in open interest. The EC2602 contract is expected to mainly track the spot market. Before the peak season in December is realized, the market is less likely to believe that January will also be a peak season. The high point of freight rates usually occurs 4 - 5 weeks before the Spring Festival (mid - January next year). If the peak season is gradually realized, the EC2602 contract may have more upside potential. The EC2604 contract is still recommended to be approached with a short - selling strategy [3]. 3.

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2. Core Viewpoints - On Thursday, the overall futures market showed a volatile trend, with contracts EC2512, EC2606, and EC2608 relatively strong, possibly due to a rebound from previous declines caused by geopolitical factors [1]. - The valuation of EC2512 is neutral and will gradually follow the delivery logic. The freight rates in late November will determine the implementation of price - holding in December, and it is expected to follow spot price changes and shipping companies' price - increase announcements [1]. - The valuation of EC2602 is difficult to determine, and it is expected to follow EC2512 in the short term. If the peak - season cargo - booking situation meets expectations, it may have greater upside potential as the freight rate usually peaks 4 - 5 weeks before the Spring Festival (mid - January next year) [1]. - EC2604 is a off - season contract. It will maintain a narrow - range volatile trend in the short - term under the peak - season logic. Given the expected greater supply pressure and the off - season in April next year, a short - selling strategy on rallies is recommended [1]. 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The report does not explicitly mention the industry investment rating. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The market continued to weaken in a volatile manner on Friday, with a neutral valuation for December. Considering the upcoming peak season and the long - term contract signing period in December, it is recommended to adopt a strategy of buying on dips. The market is expected to follow the December trend in the short term. If the peak season materializes, the valuation of the February contract is harder to determine, and it may have more upside potential. - The April contract is for the off - season. It will maintain a narrow - range volatile operation in the short - term within the peak - season logic. Given the expected greater supply pressure next year and the off - season in April, a strategy of selling on rallies is recommended. - For the recent European line quotes, the cargo booking for Week 45 was completed, and shipping companies could fill their ships. The cargo collection in Week 46 on the PA route improved slightly, but the shipping capacity in this week was extremely low. The pressure will increase in the second half of November, while the cargo volume may pick up. [3] 3.
