Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant information Group 2: Core View of the Report - The caustic soda market is currently in a pattern of high inventory and high supply. In the short - term, due to low - cost warehouse receipts and pre - holiday inventory reduction pressure, the price is weak, but there may be a rebound from over - selling, especially after April next year. Attention should be paid to the start - up situation of electrolytic aluminum and alumina enterprises and the production reduction situation of caustic soda production enterprises [1][3][4] Group 3: Summary by Related Catalogs Fundamental Analysis - Over the weekend, the price of the Shandong liquid caustic soda market continued to decline, with some orders negotiated on a one - by - one basis and actual orders down by 10 - 20.

The procurement price of alumina in the province dropped by 15 to 600 over the weekend [1] - The caustic soda operating rate was 87.70% (+1.00%), and the weekly output was 86.30 tons (+1.00%). For demand, the operating rate of main downstream alumina was 85.18% (-0.65%), the weekly output was 183.90 tons (-1.40), and the port inventory was 16.80 (+3.20).

In 2026, the fiscal department will strongly support the stability of employment, enterprises, the market, and expectations [2] Futures and Spot Market Analysis - Caustic soda is in a high - inventory and high - supply pattern. Currently, the warehouse receipt cost is lower than the spot price. The short - term price decline is due to low - cost warehouse receipts and pre - holiday inventory reduction pressure. Winter is the off - season for chlor - alkali enterprise maintenance, while spring (March - May) and autumn (September - October) are the traditional concentrated maintenance seasons. The futures price has continuously hit new lows. In the short - term weak supply - demand situation, the price is weak, but beware of over - selling rebounds, especially after April next year [3]
