Core Views Glass and Soda Ash - Macro - warming and coking coal accident news drove the soda ash futures to rebound. Fundamentally, weekly production rebounded significantly, and the inventory continued to build up. With current weekly production, demand was significantly in excess. Recently, spot sales were weak. In the medium - term, after the second - quarter PV glass installation rush, PV glass capacity growth slowed, float glass capacity remained flat, and there was still pressure on supply - demand in the future, with potential for further cold - repair. Overall, there was no growth expectation for soda ash demand. Without actual capacity exit or load reduction, inventory would face more pressure. Track policy implementation and soda ash plant load adjustment [1]. Natural Rubber - Persistent rainy weather in internal and external production areas disrupted upstream supply, keeping raw material prices high. The de - stocking rate of spot inventory in Qingdao slowed, and with the incremental release of alternative plantings in Yunnan, China's social inventory increased, intensifying market bearish sentiment. In terms of demand, although agents' purchase volume might slightly increase at the end of the month to meet monthly targets, downstream buyers mainly continued regular restocking. Adverse external factors might slow down trading in the Beijing - Tianjin - Hebei region and potentially halt some mining and engineering operations, negatively affecting replacement demand. Affected by the Fed's dovish stance, market sentiment improved, driving up rubber prices, but prices were expected to fluctuate within a range. The reference range for the 01 contract was 15,000 - 16,500. Monitor raw material supply during the peak production season in major producing areas and consider short - selling if supply is smooth [3]. Polysilicon - In August, polysilicon supply and demand both increased, but the supply growth rate was higher, still facing inventory build - up pressure. Due to the previous sharp price increase above the full - cost level and the addition of two new delivery brands on the Guangzhou Futures Exchange, future warehouse receipts were expected to increase. Currently, the price would mainly fluctuate at a high level, with the lower limit of the price range rising to 47,000 yuan/ton and the upper limit between 58,000 - 60,000 yuan/ton. Consider buying on dips. When the price is high, buy put options during low - volatility periods to short. Technically, the futures price might choose a direction to break out in a converging triangle, and consider buying straddle options when volatility is low. Pay attention to position control and risk management [5]. Industrial Silicon - From the cost side, raw material prices started to rise, and electricity prices in the southwest region would gradually increase during the dry season, raising the cost center of industrial silicon. Although industrial silicon production increased month - on - month, there were also news of capacity clearance, with small furnaces potentially shutting down. In August, supply and demand both increased, maintaining a tight balance. If some capacity is cleared in the long - term, supply pressure will ease. Strategically, consider buying on dips. However, note that as production increases, inventory and warehouse receipt pressure are emerging. The main price fluctuation range might be 8,000 - 9,500 yuan/ton, and hold long positions established at the previous low of 8,000 - 8,500 [6]. 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Ratings No information about industry investment ratings is provided in the reports. 2. Core Views of the Reports Copper - The "stagflation-like" environment restricts the upside of copper prices, but the dovish Fed statement on August 22 boosted market expectations of a September rate cut, thus lifting copper prices. The inflation pressure may not prevent the restart of rate cuts, but the actual rate cut幅度 is uncertain. The key lies in whether the inflation caused by tariffs is a one-time shock. - Fundamentally, the supply-demand contradiction of copper remains the main line, with a tight supply situation. The copper price is expected to be range-bound in the short term, with the main contract reference range of 78,500 - 80,500 yuan/ton [1]. Aluminum - The alumina market is facing a game between short-term supply disruptions and long-term overcapacity. The price of the main contract is expected to be in the range of 3,000 - 3,300 yuan/ton this week, and short positions can be considered at high prices. - The aluminum market is under pressure from the supply-demand structure, and the inventory is expected to accumulate. The short-term aluminum price is expected to be volatile, with the main contract reference range of 20,000 - 21,000 yuan/ton [4]. Aluminum Alloy - The fundamentals of the aluminum alloy market are showing marginal improvement, and the social inventory has decreased. The supply of scrap aluminum is tight, which supports the cost. The demand for communication die-casting has increased, while the automotive sector is still weak. The spot price is expected to remain relatively firm, and the price difference between aluminum alloy and aluminum is expected to converge. The main contract is expected to run in the range of 19,600 - 20,400 yuan/ton [7]. Zinc - The supply of zinc is loose, and the demand is weak, which limits the continuous upward movement of zinc prices. However, the decline in overseas inventories provides support for prices. The short-term zinc price is expected to be volatile and stronger due to improved rate cut expectations, with the main contract reference range of 22,000 - 23,000 yuan/ton [9]. Tin - The Fed's dovish signal has pushed up tin prices. The supply of tin ore remains tight, and the demand is expected to be weak. If the supply recovers smoothly, a short-selling strategy can be considered; if the supply recovery is less than expected, the tin price is expected to remain high and volatile [12]. Nickel - The macro sentiment has improved, and the cost provides some support. The supply is expected to be loose, but the pace is slow. The short-term nickel price is expected to be range-adjusted, with the main contract reference range of 118,000 - 126,000 yuan/ton [14]. Stainless Steel - The cost of stainless steel provides support, but the weak spot demand restricts the market. The short-term price is expected to be range-bound, with the main contract reference range of 12,600 - 13,400 yuan/ton [16]. Lithium Carbonate - The lithium carbonate market is currently in a tight balance. The supply contraction expectation is gradually being realized, and the demand is showing a steady and optimistic trend. The short-term price is expected to fluctuate widely around 80,000 yuan/ton [18]. 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Ratings - No industry investment ratings are provided in the reports. 2. Core Views Glass and Soda Ash - In the context of macro - warming and driven by news of coking coal accidents, the soda ash futures market rebounded. Fundamentally, weekly production increased significantly, but the demand was obviously in excess under the current weekly production. In the medium - term, after the second - quarter rush for photovoltaic installation, the growth of photovoltaic glass capacity slowed down, and the float glass capacity remained flat. There is still pressure on supply and demand in the future, and there may be further cold - repair expectations. Without actual capacity withdrawal or load reduction, the inventory will be further pressured. Attention should be paid to the implementation of policies and the load - regulation of soda ash plants [1]. Natural Rubber - Due to continuous rainy weather in both domestic and foreign production areas, upstream supply fell short of expectations, and raw material prices remained high. The de - stocking rate of spot inventory in Qingdao slowed down, and with the incremental release of alternative plantings in Yunnan, China's social inventory increased, intensifying the market's bearish sentiment. In terms of demand, although agents may slightly increase their purchases to meet monthly tasks at the end of the month, downstream demand mainly continues with regular replenishment. Affected by external factors, trading in the Beijing - Tianjin - Hebei region may slow down, and mining and engineering operations in some other regions may be suspended, which is negative for the replacement demand. Overall, affected by the dovish stance of the Federal Reserve, market sentiment improved, driving up rubber prices, but rubber prices are expected to fluctuate within a range. The reference range for the 01 contract is 15,000 - 16,500. Follow - up attention should be paid to the raw material supply during the peak production season in the main production areas, and short positions can be considered if the raw material supply goes smoothly [3]. Polysilicon - In August, both supply and demand of polysilicon increased, but the supply growth rate was relatively large, and there was still pressure on inventory accumulation. Due to the previous sharp rise in prices above the full - cost level and the addition of two new delivery brands by the Guangzhou Futures Exchange, it is expected that the number of warehouse receipts will further increase. Currently, attention can be paid to the constraints of energy consumption and green - electricity ratio in promoting the orderly exit of backward production capacity. The price will mainly fluctuate at a high level, with the lower limit of the price fluctuation range rising to 47,000 yuan/ton and the upper limit possibly between 58,000 - 60,000 yuan/ton. It is recommended to try long positions on dips. When the price is high, put options can be bought during low - volatility periods to try short positions. Technically, the futures price may choose a direction to break through in a converging triangle, and straddle options can be bought when the volatility is low. Investors are advised to pay attention to position control and risk management in advance [5]. Industrial Silicon - From the cost perspective, raw material prices started to rise, and the electricity price in the southwest region will gradually increase during the dry season, causing the cost center of industrial silicon to rise. Although the production of industrial silicon increased month - on - month recently, there were also news of production - capacity clearance, and small furnaces may be shut down. In terms of supply and demand, both supply and demand increased in August, maintaining a tight balance. If some production capacity is cleared in the long - term, the supply pressure will be reduced. It is recommended to try long positions on dips. However, it should be noted that as production increases, inventory and warehouse - receipt pressure are emerging. The main price fluctuation range is expected to be between 8,000 - 9,500 yuan/ton, and long positions established at the previous low level of 8,000 - 8,500 yuan/ton should be held [6]. Logs - No overall core view is explicitly stated in the log report, but data on price, supply, inventory, and demand are presented. 3.
