Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - For soda ash, the supply has decreased and demand has recovered, but there is still inventory accumulation. In the medium - short term, production is under downward pressure, with insufficient downstream procurement potential and weak demand. In the long - term, there is an oversupply situation. The futures price lacks continuous upward momentum, and the price will re - enter a downward channel with a likely weak and volatile trend [8]. - For glass, the supply has significantly declined and may continue to fall. The demand is in a traditional off - season with weak cyclical demand, and downstream procurement enthusiasm is difficult to improve. With the deep adjustment of the real estate industry, the demand for glass is not effectively boosted. In the short term, as it enters the traditional off - season, the overall enterprise inventory is slightly decreasing, and the price may show a strong and volatile trend, with short - term rebound opportunities [9]. 3.
