Market Summary
The market conditions in the 35th week of 2024 (August 26-September 1) were generally stable.
This year's peak season for down product orders is not strong, but downstream purchases usually continue until October. Recently, the number of inquiries for finished down products has increased, and suppliers' quotations have also rebounded, but the current price fluctuations have not yet broken the deadlock. It remains to be seen whether the market in September can increase the volume of terminal purchases.
Recently, duck industry giants Huaying Agriculture and Yike Foods have successively released their 2024 semi-annual reports, both indicating that the production and operation of down have maintained a stable and positive trend. Among them, with down prices running high, Huaying Agriculture's down business has achieved a significant increase in revenue and profit compared with the same period last year.
On August 30, the RMB spot exchange rate against the US dollar rose above 7.11, 7.10, and 7.09 during the session, and appreciated to 7.0825 during the session, setting a new high since early June 2023. CICC believes that the release of exporters' demand for foreign exchange settlement and the recent weak performance of the US dollar overseas are two important reasons for the significant appreciation of the RMB exchange rate.

Recently, the price of ducklings has continued to rise, with a cumulative increase of about 1.3 yuan per duckling, an increase of about 33%. Since the production performance of the breeding poultry was affected in July, the upstream profits of the duck industry have reached the highest period of the year.
Data shows that the average weekly output of fry in the 34th week of this year is 10.4 million, and the supply will continue to decline rapidly in the next two weeks, with the average output ranging from 9.5 to 10 million. Combined with the feedback from various aspects of the market, affected by the weather, the current egg-laying performance and fry data of breeding ducks are relatively weak compared with the previous performance. Therefore, the supply side strongly supports the rise in fry prices in the short term.
From the demand side, refrigeration was supported by stocking factors such as "school season, Mid-Autumn Festival, National Day" in September and October, product expectations were good, and the release was active; after September, the temperature was suitable, the difficulty of restocking breeding would be reduced, the feed ratio was better, and the restocking sentiment on the breeding side might be improved. With these supports, the breeding poultry enterprises had smooth seedling discharge.
In the short term, both supply and demand are favorable, and the seedling price is expected to break through 6 and rush to 7. In the medium and long term, after October, new breeding ducks will join the supply, and the supply of seedlings will gradually increase, while the old breeding ducks will face the situation of whether to be eliminated. The high cost of putting in the high cost of recovery may cause this hidden danger in October and November.

News Situation
This week's news is mixed with both positive and negative news.
The export data of down bedding in July showed that the export volume of down quilts and other down bedding has increased significantly, showing a strong recovery trend, especially the export to major markets such as the United States has maintained a relatively stable growth. This reflects that the international market demand for our country's down bedding products is recovering.
Some companies, such as Fuanna, have adopted the strategy of pre-stocking raw materials such as down to cope with the subsequent fluctuations in market demand, and this strategic reserve shows the company's optimistic expectations for the future market. At the same time, Yike Food's down sales also increased by 30.42% year-on-year, indicating that the status of down-related businesses in the company has improved.
The price of ducklings has continued to rise recently, with a cumulative increase of 33%. With the approach of the peak consumption seasons such as the start of the school year, the Mid-Autumn Festival and the National Day, the market demand for duck products is expected to improve, which further supports the upstream production of the down industry. This trend may affect the price of down raw materials in the short term.
