Currently, it is mainly macro - led, and short - term prices are expected to oscillate and strengthen [24]. PVC and Caustic Soda - PVC supply - demand has weakened, but short - term prices are expected to be strong due to macro - policies. Caustic soda fundamentals are marginally weaker, but the short - term price is also expected to be strong due to policy and sentiment [29]. Glass and Soda Ash - Macro and industry factors are in resonance, with both futures and spot prices rising. Short - term prices are expected to be strong, but attention should be paid to inventory and demand digestion [32][34]. Methanol - International device start - up rates are rising, and domestic supply is abundant. Short - term prices are expected to oscillate [36]. Urea - Domestic supply is abundant, but demand is expected to improve marginally. It is recommended to buy on dips [38]. Double - coated Paper - The market is partially declining, and the supply - demand is weak. Industry players are cautiously waiting and watching [40]. Logs - The price of radiata pine logs in Taicang has increased. Near - term contracts are in the delivery verification stage, and it is recommended to wait and watch [43][44]. Natural Rubber and 20 - number Rubber - RU and NR contracts are recommended to hold long positions, and the spread between RU2509 and NR2509 should be reduced for observation [48]. Butadiene Rubber - BR contracts are recommended to short - sell a small amount, with a stop - loss set at the night - session high [52]. Pulp - The market is in a stalemate, and the short - term recommendation is to wait and watch [53]. 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The prices of PX, PTA, MEG, short - fiber, and bottle - chip futures have shown upward trends recently. The main reasons include increased gasoline demand leading to higher naphtha demand, multiple device overhauls in the industry, improved macro - atmosphere due to the mutual tariff reduction between China and the US, and changes in supply - demand relationships in different segments of the polyester industry chain. In the short term, these products are expected to fluctuate with a strong bias [6][7][9]. 3. Summary by Related Catalogs 3.1 Basic Data - **Futures Closing Prices**: From May 9th to May 12th, 2025, most futures contracts in the polyester industry chain showed price increases. For example, the 2506 contract of PX rose from 6626 to 6806, with an increase of 180 and a growth rate of 2.72%. The 2506 contract of PTA increased from 4684 to 4836, with an increase of 152 and a growth rate of 3.25% [5]. - **Spot Prices**: Spot prices also generally increased. For instance, the PTA spot price rose from 4301 to 4400, with a growth rate of 2.30%. The PF (1.4D) spot price increased from 6440 to 6525, with a growth rate of 1.32% [5]. - **Basis**: The basis of some products changed significantly. The PTA09 main - port basis increased from 149 to 175, with a growth rate of 17.45%. The MEG09 spot basis rose from 78 to 128, with a growth rate of 64.10% [5]. - **Monthly Spread**: There were also changes in monthly spreads. The TA9 - 1 monthly spread decreased from 72 to 71, with a decline rate of 5.56%, while the EG9 - 1 monthly spread increased from 3 to 23, with a growth rate of 666.67% [5]. - **Industrial Chain Price Differences and Profits**: Some price differences and profits in the industrial chain changed. The PTA - PX (09 futures contract) price difference increased from 343 to 352, with a growth rate of 2.56%. The PF06 contract processing fee increased from 881 to 1220, with a growth rate of 38.49% [5]. 3.2 Product Analysis - **PX**: The PX futures price continued to rise. Due to increased gasoline demand, the demand for naphtha for gasoline blending increased. Multiple PX device overhauls were planned, and the market atmosphere improved. The PX - naphtha price difference recovered, and PX valuation was upward - repaired. In the short term, PX is expected to fluctuate with a strong bias [6]. - **PTA**: The PTA futures price continued to rise, and the basis strengthened. Multiple PTA device overhauls in May led to a significant decline in the operating rate and an upward repair of processing fees. After the May - Day holiday, the polyester operating rate continued to increase, expanding the PTA supply - demand gap. In the short term, PTA is expected to fluctuate with a strong bias [7]. - **MEG**: The MEG futures price increased. The port inventory decreased, and the domestic operating rate recovered due to the restart of multiple synthetic - gas - based MEG overhaul devices. The supply increased overall, and the inventory pressure was not large. The polyester operating rate remained high, and the supply - demand relationship was in a tight - balance pattern. In the short term, MEG is expected to fluctuate with a strong bias [8][9]. - **Short - fiber**: The prices of polyester raw material futures continued to strengthen, and short - fiber factory quotes increased. Downstream stocking sentiment improved, and the average sales rate reached 132%. After the holiday, both supply and demand increased, and the inventory changed little. Short - fiber prices followed the trend of raw materials [10]. - **Bottle - chip**: The prices of polyester raw material futures continued to strengthen, and the bottle - chip futures price increased. A bottle - chip device restarted, and the supply was stable. Although the downstream market atmosphere weakened, the export efficiency was good, and the overall demand was still supported. The current processing fee valuation was low, and the price followed the trend of raw materials [11].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views - On Thursday morning, Hengli Petrochemical announced maintenance plans for two sets of equipment, and crude oil rebounded, causing the PTA price to surge. However, in the afternoon, the downstream terminal's operating rate continued to decline, and confidence was lacking, leading to a subsequent decline in PTA. The comprehensive operating rate of textile looms in Jiangsu and Zhejiang dropped to 61%, a 2% decrease from last week, and the comprehensive operating rate of texturing machines in the sample area of Jiangsu and Zhejiang dropped to 73%, a 5% decrease from last week. The terminal continued to reduce the operating rate to control the raw material consumption speed and the rising speed of grey fabric inventory [1]. 3. Summary by Related Catalogs Market Analysis Cost Side - In the short term, the impacts of Trump's tariff policy and OPEC+ production cuts have not subsided. In the medium term, the fundamentals of crude oil remain weak. Trump may lower oil prices to curb inflation, and the market may further trade on recession expectations, resulting in a weakening of oil prices in the medium term [2]. - Regarding gasoline and aromatics, the octane spread has rebounded slightly recently, but the medium - and long - term fundamentals of gasoline are still weak. The US has started stocking up on aromatics, but the overall impact is limited. Since March, South Korea's aromatics exports to the US have decreased significantly month - on - month, and the overall support from the cost side is limited [2]. - For PX, the PXN was $170/ton (a $2/ton increase from the previous period) the day before last. Recently, PX maintenance has been gradually implemented. The current PXN valuation is not high, and there is still support at the bottom, but the rebound is limited under the weak gasoline market. Attention should be paid to changes in crude oil and the macro - environment [2]. - For TA, the spot basis of the TA main contract was 24 yuan/ton (a 4 - yuan/ton increase from the previous period), the PTA spot processing fee was 213 yuan/ton (a 69 - yuan/ton decrease from the previous period), and the processing fee of the 05 contract on the disk was 354 yuan/ton (a 2 - yuan/ton increase from the previous period). The PTA supply - demand continued to destock, and the basis rebounded. However, with the outflow of warehouse receipts, the liquidity in the spot market was acceptable, and the PTA price mainly fluctuated following the cost side [2]. Demand Side - The polyester operating rate was 93.3% (a 0.1% increase from the previous period). Recently, the operating rates of downstream weaving and texturing have been continuously decreasing. Due to the high inventory of weaving grey fabrics and poor order intake, the willingness to replenish inventory is weak, and the filament inventory has accumulated to a high level. After the relaxation of tariffs in other countries, orders from Southeast Asia have resumed shipping, but direct orders to the US are still greatly affected, and the increase in Southeast Asian export - grabbing orders is limited. Recently, bottle - chip factories have restarted in a concentrated manner, the filament load has remained firm, and the short - fiber load has decreased. The polyester operating rate will remain high in the short term and may decline in May [3]. - For PF, the short - fiber spot basis was 330 yuan/ton (a 20 - yuan/ton decrease from the previous period), the PF spot production profit was 334 yuan/ton (a 33 - yuan/ton increase from the previous period), and the processing fee of the PF main contract was 897 yuan/ton (a 4 - yuan/ton decrease from the previous period). Short - fiber factories have gradually implemented production cuts, but the demand side remains weak. The tariff issue has been postponed, and the market sentiment has gradually stabilized, but the willingness to chase high prices continuously is insufficient. Attention should be paid to whether there will be a significant increase in demand - side export - grabbing orders [3]. - For PR, the bottle - chip spot processing fee was 587 yuan/ton (a 151.10 - yuan/ton increase from the previous period). Since the policy has little impact on the bottle - chip's own demand, the bottle - chip is slightly stronger than the raw material. At the historical low price, downstream customers have increased their replenishment. With Trump's implementation of a 90 - day suspension of reciprocal tariffs, the market sentiment has improved. However, the current bottle - chip load has returned to a high level, and the upside space of the polyester bottle - chip factory's processing range is limited. The market price is expected to still fluctuate following the raw material cost [3]. Strategy - Unilateral: Be cautious about short - selling and hedging PX/PTA/PF/PR at high prices [4]. - Cross - variety: None [4]. - Cross - period: None [4].
