  1. Report Investment Ratings - Glass: Short - term shock, long - term shock and weakening [2] - Soda Ash: Medium - term shock and weakening, be cautious when shorting at low levels [3] 2. Core Views - Glass: Currently in a shock market. Short - term support lies in relatively low valuation and high positions, which may lead to short - covering in the near - month contracts. There are concerns about further production cuts in the off - season. However, factors such as forward premium, inventory pressure, and off - season effects will suppress the price. The market will likely fluctuate between low near - month valuation and lack of upward drivers. [2] - Soda Ash: The core drivers for the decline are oversupply, forward premium pressure in futures, and potential demand pressure from downstream production cuts. Either large - scale production cuts in soda ash or continuous improvement in the glass industry can drive the market. Although the current start - up rate is declining, the downward driving force is weakening, but the future delivery pressure cannot be underestimated. There is limited room for a continuous sharp decline at the current price level. [3][4] 3.
