Report Summary 1. Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoints - The lithium carbonate market shows a weak and volatile trend. In terms of fundamentals, overseas miners still have a strong willingness to support prices, and domestic lithium ore supply is expected to gradually become clear, with prices likely to remain firm. Supply is expected to increase due to the traditional consumption season and positive policies, and overall domestic lithium carbonate supply may increase slightly. Demand is boosted by the traditional consumption season, and the industry maintains a high - growth trend. In the options market, the sentiment is bullish, and the implied volatility has slightly increased. Technically, the 60 - minute MACD shows green bars emerging above the 0 - axis. The operation suggestion is to conduct light - position oscillating trading and control risks [2]. 3.
