1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the document 2. Core View of the Report - The overall strategy maintains the logic of shorting on rallies. This is because the overall situation in September is loose, the subsequent drivers continue to be weak; currently, the October contract is at a discount of about 450 points to the spot, and there is still expected to be room for decline; the valuation of the far - month contracts is unclear, more affected by drivers, and due to low positions, they are greatly affected by macro and capital behaviors [2][16] 3.
