  1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content 2. Core Viewpoints - This week, the lithium carbonate futures prices have significantly declined and adjusted, and the basis has strengthened. However, the core logic of the tight real - supply and demand remains unchanged. The lithium price is expected to be supported at the bottom due to downstream replenishment willingness, and the market should pay attention to variables such as macro - factors. The futures main contract price is expected to operate in the range of 120,000 - 150,000 yuan/ton [1][4][5] 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Price Trends This Week - The 2605 contract of lithium carbonate futures closed at 132,920 yuan/ton, a weekly decline of 15,280 yuan/ton; the 2607 contract closed at 133,620 yuan/ton, a weekly decline of 15,240 yuan/ton.

The actual production reduction of cathode material factories is limited, and the output is expected to remain at a high level. In 2025, the newly installed capacity of new energy storage projects was 62.24GW/183GWh, a year - on - year increase of 47%/80%. Last week, the capacity price policy was introduced. In the energy storage segment, the weekly market had 29 project wins, with a total winning scale of 2.03GW/5.35GWh, a month - on - month increase of 52.3% and a year - on - year increase of 1865% [3] 3.2.3 Inventory - This week, lithium carbonate continued to destock, with the industry inventory at 105,463 tons, a decrease of 2,019 tons from last week, and the inventory was transferred downstream.
