Report Industry Investment Ratings - Glass: Weak and volatile [2] - Soda Ash: Volatile [2] - Silicomanganese: Volatile [4] - Ferrosilicon: Volatile [4] Core Views - Market sentiment is weak, and steel prices are fluctuating. The trading sentiment of glass and soda ash has been boosted, leading to a rebound in their futures markets. The alloy futures of ferrosilicon and silicomanganese have also rebounded, while the spot prices have made minor adjustments [1][3] - The supply - demand contradiction in the glass market is still significant, with high inventory pressure. The supply - demand situation of soda ash has eased, but there are concerns about new production projects and glass cold - repair. The fundamentals of silicomanganese are poor with high inventory, and the fundamentals of ferrosilicon have improved compared to before [1][3] Summary by Related Catalogs Glass and Soda Ash - Market Analysis: Glass futures fluctuated upwards with active trading, and downstream buyers mainly made rigid - demand purchases. Soda ash futures also rose, with an increase in spot prices but poor futures - spot trading and mainly rigid - demand purchases [1] - Supply - demand and Logic: For glass, the supply - demand contradiction is large. Although some production lines are being cold - repaired, the reduction in production is insufficient compared to the decline in demand, and there is a risk of significant inventory accumulation during the Spring Festival. For soda ash, the supply - demand contradiction has eased, with reduced production and inventory. However, new production projects and potential glass cold - repairs need to be monitored [1] - Strategy: Glass is expected to be weak and volatile, while soda ash is expected to be volatile [2] Silicomanganese and Ferrosilicon - Market Analysis: Silicomanganese futures rebounded, and the spot market was strong. The 6517 grade in the northern market was priced at 5550 - 5700 yuan/ton, and in the southern market at 5680 - 5730 yuan/ton. Ferrosilicon futures continued to rebound, and the spot prices were slightly adjusted. The 72 - grade ferrosilicon in the main production area was 5200 - 5300 yuan/ton, and the 75 - grade was 5600 - 5650 yuan/ton [3] - Supply - demand and Logic: The fundamentals of silicomanganese are poor, with production exceeding demand and a large increase in inventory. Although steel mill复产 after New Year's Day will help repair the rigid demand, the high inventory pressure limits price increases. The low port inventory of manganese ore provides price support. The fundamentals of ferrosilicon have improved, with enterprises reducing production and factory inventory declining. After steel mill复产, the rigid demand is expected to improve, and the price will be volatile [3] - Strategy: Both silicomanganese and ferrosilicon are expected to be volatile [4]
