Hualian Futures: PVC Supply Pressure Generally High
The overall supply pressure remains relatively high. However, domestically, only Zhejiang Jiahe has a planned new capacity of 300,000 tons in 2026, and overseas, the planned UAE project has been postponed, indicating that the supply expansion is nearing its end. On the demand side, the operating rate of finished product manufacturers is weakly stable, and the terminal demand is in the off-season, with construction sites in the north suspending work and order intake being poor. In terms of inventory, social warehouses are accumulating inventory, while factory warehouses are destocking, and the registered warehouse receipt volume remains at a high level. Regarding costs, the price of calcium carbide has rebounded slightly, with the calcium carbide method experiencing increased losses and the ethylene method experiencing reduced losses, while the chlor-alkali profit remains at a low level. From a policy perspective, the VAT export rebate for PVC will be canceled from April 1, 2026. Overall, the weak supply-demand pattern of PVC has not changed for the time being. The cancellation of the export rebate will directly increase the export cost of PVC, but before April 1, there may be a rush to export. In the medium and long term, attention should be paid to the disruption to supply caused by increased competition among upstream enterprises. In the short term, the chemical sector is collectively strengthening. For single-leg trading, a short-term bullish approach is recommended, with the 2605 contract's range referring to 4750-5000. In terms of arbitrage, attention can be paid to the 3-5 contract calendar spread. -

Geopolitical Tensions Rise, Sparking Fears of Middle East Oil Supply Disruptions
SC crude oil futures contract performed strongly today, closing up 4.07% at 457.3 yuan/barrel. Geopolitical tensions continue to evolve. Following the US-Venezuela and US-Iran situations, President Trump's remarks last week about forcibly acquiring Greenland and imposing tariffs on eight European countries shifted the geopolitical focus again. However, Trump changed his stance during the Davos Forum. Last Friday, the US announced a new round of sanctions against Iran. In the short term, continue to monitor geopolitical developments. Considering the current global oil oversupply, the height of emotional premium will be suppressed, making it difficult for oil prices to continue to rise. In the medium term, the driving force will return to fundamentals, and a bottom-range fluctuation is expected in the first quarter. -
Germany Battdg New Rules: A Guide to Battery Recycling Compliance for Cross-Border Sellers (2026 Ofh System Takes Effect)
With the implementation of the new EU Battery Regulation, the German Battery Act has been upgraded to BattDG. Starting in 2026, the OfH recycling system will replace the old one. OfH is an officially recognized Producer Responsibility Organization, responsible for managing the battery recycling network, data reporting, and collecting environmental fees. Cross-border sellers should pay special attention: merchants selling products containing batteries, using German warehouses, or shipping to German consumers must bind with OfH. Otherwise, they face risks such as registration cancellation, product seizure, and high fines. Key steps for compliance include: confirming the authorized representative status, clarifying battery categories, binding OfH in the EAR system, and updating platform information and labels. The new regulation requires companies to bear full life-cycle responsibility, and sellers are advised to self-check their compliance status as early as possible.
