### Focus Points

1. crude oilBrent crude fell from its monthly high, marking its first decline in a week, but still posted gains for three consecutive weeks.

The "Golden March" has arrived, but the recovery in demand remains relatively limited.

Core logic: Focus on weather and terminal load changes.

Jiangsu 1.4D High Strength Low Elongation Imitation Dacron	6400.00	6325.00	-75.00	-1.17%
Note: 1. Relevant products PTA, PX, and MEG adopt international premium quality, polyester staple fiber selects semi-dull 1.56*38MM; recycled hollow selects 3D 7D with silicon. Note: Recycled regular fiber uses Jiangsu 1.4D high strength low elongation imitation Da Hua white; recycled hollow fiber uses three-dimensional 7D with silicon. 2. The unit for crude oil is USD/barrel, the units for naphtha CFR Japan and PX CFR China are USD/ton, and the other three products are priced in RMB, with the unit: yuan/ton. The prices in the above table are cash prices for recycled PET bottle flakes, while the others are self-extracting exchange rate inclusive of tax prices. The prices for the two periods refer to the point prices from the two working weeks prior to this week, rather than the weekly average prices. The translation result is: 5. The change rate is the rate of change compared to the previous period.

Regenerated PET Supply and Demand Data Sheet
data type	3 May 21	3 February 28th	Rate of Change	Expected this week
Production capacity utilization rate	39.8%	39.8%	0%	→
Enterprise Inventory Rate	5.2	5.2	0%	→
Cash flow	400	300	-25.0%	→
1 1. Capacity utilization rate refers to the proportion of production equipment output relative to capacity, reflecting production indicators. The data in the table above is weekly average data. 2. Production profit is industry-wide data, reflecting the overall profitability of mainstream products in key regions. The data in the table above is weekly average data, specifically for华北 (North China) white sheet profit, in units: yuan/ton. 3. Factory inventory days represent the equity inventory days of production plants, reflecting inventory trends and pressure. The data in the table above shows current inventory levels, not weekly averages, in units: days.

Four. Market Outlook

Market sentiment remains cautious, with end-users and downstream recycled fiber mills primarily consuming existing inventory and showing limited enthusiasm for raw material procurement. However, during the off-season for bottle recycling, the limited availability of circulating goods restricts the downside potential for scrap prices. Cleaning plants mostly operate on a make-to-order basis, with no plans to stockpile raw materials or finished products. This week, the recycled PET bottle flake market is expected to continue its weak consolidation trend.

1 1. Capacity utilization rate refers to the proportion of a production facility's output relative to its capacity, reflecting production indicators. The data in the table above is weekly averaged. 2. Production profit is an industry-level metric, reflecting the overall profitability of mainstream products in key regions. The data in the table above is weekly averaged, using the profit margin of white-label tablets in North China as an example, with the unit being yuan/ton. 3. Factory inventory days represent the days of inventory held by production plants, reflecting inventory trends and pressure. The data in the table above shows current inventory levels (not weekly averaged), with the unit being days.
