Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Core Viewpoint of the Report - It is expected that plastics will mainly experience weak fluctuations in the near future [1] Summary According to Relevant Catalogs Market Analysis - On November 13th, new maintenance devices such as Zhongsha Petrochemical's LLDPE were added, causing the plastics operating rate to drop to around 88.5%, which is currently at a neutral level. The downstream operating rate of PE decreased by 0.52 percentage points to 44.85% compared to the previous period. The agricultural film is still in the peak season, with orders continuing to increase and reaching a neutral level in the same period in recent years. The raw material inventory of agricultural film is stable, but the orders for packaging film continue to decrease slightly. The overall downstream operating rate of PE is still at a relatively low level in the same period in recent years. Petrochemicals are normalizing inventory, and the current petrochemical inventory is at a neutral level in the same period in recent years. In terms of cost, OPEC adjusted the global oil supply in the third quarter of 2025 from a shortage of 400,000 barrels per day to a surplus of 500,000 barrels per day, and the pattern of oversupply in the crude oil market has become more widely recognized, leading to a decline in crude oil prices. In terms of supply, ExxonMobil (Huizhou) with a new production capacity of 500,000 tons per year of LDPE started trial operation, and PetroChina Guangxi Petrochemical with a production capacity of 800,000 tons per year was recently put into production. The plastics operating rate has slightly decreased. The agricultural film is in the peak season, with orders gradually accumulating, but the peak season is not as good as expected. The price of agricultural film is stable. After the National Day, the stocking demand decreased periodically, the downstream operating rate began to decline, and the purchasing willingness of downstream enterprises was insufficient. Traders are cautious about the future market and generally reduce prices to actively sell goods. There is still no actual policy for anti - involution in the plastics industry. Of course, anti - involution and the elimination of old devices to solve the problem of overcapacity in the petrochemical industry are still macro - policies that will affect the subsequent market [1] Futures and Spot Market Conditions Futures - The plastics 2601 contract fluctuated with a reduction in positions. The lowest price was 6,756 yuan per ton, the highest price was 6,820 yuan per ton, and it finally closed at 6,818 yuan per ton, below the 60 - day moving average, with a gain of 0.50%. The position volume decreased by 5,317 lots to 581,602 lots [2] Spot - The PE spot market was mostly stable, with price fluctuations ranging from - 50 to + 50 yuan per ton. LLDPE was reported at 6,740 - 7,270 yuan per ton, LDPE at 8,770 - 9,430 yuan per ton, and HDPE at 6,900 - 8,090 yuan per ton [3] Fundamental Tracking - On the supply side, on November 13th, new maintenance devices such as Zhongsha Petrochemical's LLDPE were added, causing the plastics operating rate to drop to around 88.5%, which is currently at a neutral level. In terms of demand, as of the week of November 7th, the downstream operating rate of PE decreased by 0.52 percentage points to 44.85% compared to the previous period. The agricultural film is still in the peak season, with orders continuing to increase and reaching a neutral level in the same period in recent years. The raw material inventory of agricultural film is stable, but the orders for packaging film continue to decrease slightly. The overall downstream operating rate of PE is still at a relatively low level in the same period in recent years. On Thursday, the early petrochemical inventory decreased by 25,000 tons to 665,000 tons compared to the previous day, which is 5,000 tons lower than the same period last year. Petrochemicals are normalizing inventory, and the current petrochemical inventory is at a neutral level in the same period in recent years. For the raw material, crude oil, the Brent crude oil 01 contract fell below $63 per barrel, the price of Northeast Asian ethylene remained flat at $730 per ton compared to the previous period, and the price of Southeast Asian ethylene remained flat at $740 per ton compared to the previous period [4]

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Report's Core View - The plastic industry is expected to experience weak and volatile trends in the near future. The开工率 of plastics is at a neutral level, while the downstream开工率 of PE is at a relatively low level in recent years. The cost of crude oil is fluctuating within a narrow range, and there is an increase in supply. The peak season for agricultural film is not as strong as expected, and downstream purchasing enthusiasm is insufficient. Traders are cautious about the future market, and there is no actual policy for anti - involution in the plastic industry yet [1]. Summary According to Related Catalogs Market Analysis - On November 6, the change in maintenance devices was small, and the plastic开工率 remained at around 89.5%, which is at a neutral level. The downstream开工率 of PE decreased by 0.38 percentage points to 45.37%. Agricultural film is in the peak season, with orders and raw material inventories increasing to a neutral level in recent years, but packaging film orders decreased slightly. The overall downstream开工率 of PE is still at a relatively low level in recent years. Petrochemical inventories at the beginning of the month increased significantly and are now at a neutral level in recent years. The market has digested the news of Russian oil sanctions, and the meeting between Chinese and US leaders was in line with market expectations. OPEC+ decided to increase production by 137,000 barrels per day in December but suspend production increase in the first quarter of next year, causing crude oil prices to fluctuate within a narrow range. There is new production capacity coming online, and the plastic开工率 has increased. The peak season for agricultural film is not as good as expected, and downstream purchasing willingness is insufficient. Traders are cautious about the future market and are actively selling at reduced prices. There is no actual anti - involution policy in the plastic industry yet [1]. Futures and Spot Market Conditions - **Futures**: The plastic 2601 contract increased in positions and fluctuated. The lowest price was 6,745 yuan/ton, the highest was 6,819 yuan/ton, and it closed at 6,805 yuan/ton, below the 60 - day moving average, with a decline of 0.38%. The position increased by 25,025 lots to 578,172 lots [2]. - **Spot**: Most of the PE spot market declined, with price changes ranging from - 100 to + 0 yuan/ton. LLDPE was reported at 6,740 - 7,270 yuan/ton, LDPE at 8,920 - 9,730 yuan/ton, and HDPE at 7,030 - 7,990 yuan/ton [3]. Fundamental Tracking - **Supply**: On November 6, the change in maintenance devices was small, and the plastic开工率 remained at around 89.5%, which is at a neutral level [4]. - **Demand**: As of the week ending October 31, the downstream开工率 of PE decreased by 0.38 percentage points to 45.37%.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core View of the Report The report predicts that plastics will continue to oscillate weakly in the near term. Currently, the plastics industry has not seen the implementation of actual anti - involution policies, and the anti - involution and elimination of old devices, which aim to solve the problem of petrochemical over - capacity, are still macro - policies that will affect future market trends. Although the agricultural film is in the peak season and demand is expected to increase, the current peak season is under - performing, and downstream enterprises' purchasing willingness is insufficient [1]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Market Analysis - On November 4th, the number of overhauled devices changed little, and the plastics operating rate remained at around 89%, at a neutral level. The downstream operating rate of PE decreased by 0.38 percentage points to 45.37% on a month - on - month basis. The agricultural film is in the peak season, with orders and raw material inventories increasing to a neutral level in recent years, but packaging film orders have slightly decreased, and the overall downstream operating rate of PE is still at a relatively low level compared to the same period in recent years. Petrochemical inventory is currently at a neutral level compared to the same period in recent years. The crude oil price is fluctuating slightly. New production capacities have been put into operation, and the plastics operating rate has increased [1]. 3.2 Futures and Spot Market Conditions - **Futures**: The plastics 2601 contract increased in positions and oscillated. The lowest price was 6,852 yuan/ton, the highest was 6,912 yuan/ton, and it closed at 6,879 yuan/ton, below the 60 - day moving average, with a decline of 0.48%. The position volume increased by 554 lots to 533,139 lots [2]. - **Spot**: Most prices in the PE spot market declined, with price changes ranging from - 50 to + 0 yuan/ton. LLDPE was reported at 6,840 - 7,370 yuan/ton, LDPE at 9,000 - 9,780 yuan/ton, and HDPE at 7,070 - 8,090 yuan/ton [3]. 3.3 Fundamental Tracking - **Supply**: On November 4th, the number of overhauled devices changed little, and the plastics operating rate remained at around 89%, at a neutral level [4]. - **Demand**: As of the week ending October 31st, the downstream operating rate of PE decreased by 0.38 percentage points to 45.37% on a month - on - month basis. The agricultural film is in the peak season, but the overall downstream operating rate of PE is still at a relatively low level compared to the same period in recent years [4]. - **Inventory**: On Tuesday, the petrochemical early - morning inventory decreased by 25,000 tons to 735,000 tons, 25,000 tons higher than the same period last year. Currently, petrochemical inventory is at a neutral level compared to the same period in recent years [4]. - **Raw Materials**: The Brent crude oil 01 contract oscillated around $65 per barrel. The price of Northeast Asian ethylene remained flat at $730 per ton on a month - on - month basis, and the price of Southeast Asian ethylene remained flat at $740 per ton on a month - on - month basis [4].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The investment ratings for LLDPE and PP are both "oscillating" [2][3] 2. Core Views of the Report - For LLDPE, the short - term market has no obvious driving force, and it is expected to oscillate. Influenced by supply, demand, inventory, cost and other factors, the supply side has some fluctuations in production and capacity utilization, the demand side has mixed performance in different downstream industries, the inventory shows a downward trend, the cost of some production methods has changed, and the macro - policy has a negative impact on the market [2]. - For PP, the short - term market is also expected to oscillate. The supply side's capacity utilization has decreased, the demand side has a positive outlook in general with different downstream industries performing differently, the inventory at various levels has decreased, the profit of some production methods has changed, and the macro - policy has a negative impact [3]. 3. Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 3.1 LLDPE Analysis Supply - This week, China's LLDPE production was 30.86 tons, a 3.23% decrease from last week. The capacity utilization rate of Chinese polyethylene producers was 81.46%, a 0.3 - percentage - point decrease from the previous period. Some devices were under maintenance, and some newly - stopped devices restarted during the week [2]. Demand - The average operating rate of Chinese LLDPE/LDPE downstream products increased by 1.64% compared with the previous period. The overall operating rate of agricultural films increased by 2.75%, and the operating rate of PE packaging films increased by 0.52%. In 2025, the cumulative import volume was 898.16 million tons, a 0.84% year - on - year decrease. In August, China's polyethylene import volume was 95.02 million tons, a 22.14% year - on - year and 14.17% month - on - month decrease [2]. Inventory - As of this week, the sample inventory of Chinese polyethylene producers was 51.46 million tons, a 1.49 - million - ton decrease from the previous period, a 2.81% month - on - month decrease. The social sample warehouse inventory of polyethylene was 54.54 million tons, a 0.02 - million - ton decrease from the previous period, a 0.05% month - on - month decrease, and 9.19% lower year - on - year. The inventory of imported polyethylene in warehouses decreased by 0.37% month - on - month and was 20.33% lower year - on - year [2]. Cost and Profit - The costs of oil - based, coal - based, and ethane - based production increased by 41, 242, and 81 yuan/ton respectively compared with the previous period. The ethylene - based cost remained unchanged, and the methanol - based cost decreased by 163 yuan/ton. International oil prices rose due to factors such as US sanctions on Russia and a decrease in US commercial crude oil inventories [2]. Valuation - The spot price is neutral, the absolute price of the futures market is neutral, and the near - month contract is at a deep discount [2]. Macro Policy - The macro - sentiment has subsided, trading has returned to the fundamentals, and the futures market is oscillating weakly [2]. 3.2 PP Analysis Supply - The average capacity utilization rate of polypropylene was 75.94%, a 2.28% month - on - month decrease. The capacity utilization rate of Sinopec was 78.76%, a 2.25% month - on - month decrease [3]. Demand - The average operating rate increased by 0.52 percentage points to 52.37%. With the cooling weather, the demand for cold - chain packaging in some regions increased. The demand for medical products such as masks and diapers rose, driving up the operating rate of the PP non - woven fabric industry. The operating rates of the CPP and BOPP industries increased steadily. Although the PP pipe and plastic - weaving industries were affected by rainy weather, with the approaching of e - commerce festivals, the overall demand for polypropylene products is expected to continue to improve [3]. Inventory - As of this week, the inventory of Chinese polypropylene producers was 63.85 million tons, a 4.02 - million - ton decrease from the previous period, a 5.92% month - on - month decrease. The port sample inventory of Chinese polypropylene decreased by 0.11 million tons from the previous period, a 1.62% month - on - month decrease. The inventory of domestic polypropylene traders decreased by 1.86 million tons from the previous period, a 7.80% month - on - month decrease [3]. Cost and Profit - This week, the profits of oil - based and externally - purchased propylene - based PP production were repaired, while the profits of coal - based, methanol - based, and PDH - based PP production declined. The international energy agency warned of long - term supply surplus risks, and trade disputes initiated by the US suppressed the demand outlook, putting pressure on the oil market.
