1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The rating for lithium carbonate is "Oscillating" [4] 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The actual fundamentals of lithium carbonate are positive, but the futures market is significantly affected by macro - sentiment and capital flows. After the Spring Festival, the fundamentals are expected to show a simultaneous increase in supply and demand. From March to Q2, lithium carbonate is still expected to experience inventory reduction. After the supply increases in Q3, there may be inventory accumulation, but considering the demand growth, the inventory days are expected to decrease to less than one month.
