需求预期走弱，新能源金属亦承压

1. Report's Industry Investment Rating The report does not mention the industry investment rating. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In the short - term, the overall panic sentiment in the non - ferrous market has spread to the new energy metal market, putting pressure on new energy metal prices. In the long - run, the expected path of polysilicon supply contraction has shifted from administrative clearance to market - based clearance, with prices expected to fluctuate widely. For lithium ore, although production capacity is rising, the expected demand is high, the expected supply - demand surplus is narrowing, and the supply - demand improvement is expected to push up the price center [2]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1行情观点 3.1.1 Industrial Silicon - Viewpoint: Market sentiment has weakened, and silicon prices have declined [7]. - Information Analysis: As of March 19th, the price of Tongyang 553 in Xinjiang was 8,650 yuan/ton, and in Yunnan was 9,300 yuan/ton. The price of 421 in Xinjiang was 8,850 yuan/ton, and in Yunnan was 9,750 yuan/ton. As of last week, domestic inventory was 437,350 tons, a month - on - month decrease of 3.4%. In February, industrial silicon production was 238,000 tons, a year - on - year decrease of 17.1% and a month - on - month decrease of 25.7%. In 2025, cumulative production was 4.055 million tons, a year - on - year decrease of 13.7%. In December, industrial silicon exports were 59,036 tons, a month - on - month increase of 7.6% and a year - on - year increase of 2.4%. From January to December, cumulative exports were 720,000 tons, a year - on - year decrease of 0.6% [7]. - Main Logic: On the supply side, the operation rate in the southwest during the dry season has dropped to a very low level, and Sichuan has basically stopped production. Although the operation rate of large northwest factories has recovered and stabilized, long - term over - supply pressure remains. On the demand side, polysilicon inventory consumption pressure is high, and the demand from polysilicon, organic silicon, and aluminum alloy industries for industrial silicon is weak [7]. - Outlook: Industrial silicon remains in a loose supply - demand pattern, with prices expected to fluctuate in the medium - to - long term and remain under pressure [7]. 3.1.2 Polysilicon - Viewpoint: Inventory is at a high level, putting pressure on polysilicon prices [7]. - Information Analysis: On March 19th, the average transaction price of N - type dense material was 45.5 yuan/kg, with no change from the previous day. On the same day, the number of polysilicon warehouse receipts on the Guangzhou Futures Exchange was 9,910 lots, with no change [7][8]. - Main Logic: Recently, macro - hedging sentiment has increased, dragging down polysilicon prices. In terms of supply, production in the southwest is still in a reduced state during the dry season, and overall production is low. On the demand side, demand remains weak, inventory is accumulating, and warehouse receipt numbers are increasing, pressuring prices. In the long run, supply is also contracting, and leading enterprises are strengthening mergers and acquisitions, so future supply - demand may tighten, and prices may fluctuate widely [8]. - Outlook: In the medium - to - long term, polysilicon prices may fluctuate widely [8]. 3.1.3 Lithium Carbonate - Viewpoint: The combination of macro and demand expectations has put pressure on lithium prices [8]. - Information Analysis: On March 19th, the closing price of the lithium carbonate main contract decreased by 5.01% to 142,600 yuan/ton, and the total open interest of lithium carbonate contracts decreased by 25,396 lots to 595,675 lots. The morning - session spot price of battery - grade lithium carbonate was 152,150 yuan/ton, a month - on - month decrease of 2,750 yuan/ton, and the evening - session price was 144,950 yuan/ton, a month - on - month decrease of 9,250 yuan/ton. The morning - session price of industrial - grade lithium carbonate was 149,250 yuan/ton, a month - on - month decrease of 2,500 yuan/ton, and the evening - session price was 144,950 yuan/ton, a month - on - month decrease of 9,250 yuan/ton. The number of warehouse receipts decreased by 1,029 lots to 34,740 lots [8][9][10]. - Main Logic: There is a divergence between the initial and terminal demand for lithium carbonate. In March, supply - demand is still strong, but terminal performance needs further observation. In the first quarter of 2026, supply remained relatively strong, and demand was also good, maintaining a tight balance. However, new energy vehicle sales from January to February were not optimistic, and if the power demand in March is still negative, there is a high risk that the initial demand from April to May will fall short of expectations [11]. - Outlook: In the short term, supply - demand is in a tight balance, but demand shows signs of weakening, so prices are expected to fluctuate [11]. 3.2行情监测 3.2.1 Industrial Silicon - The report does not provide specific monitoring content for industrial silicon other than the information in the "行情观点" section. 3.2.2 Polysilicon - The report does not provide specific monitoring content for polysilicon other than the information in the "行情观点" section. 3.2.3 Lithium Carbonate - The report does not provide specific monitoring content for lithium carbonate other than the information in the "行情观点" section. 3.3中信期货商品指数 3.3.1综合指数 - On March 19, 2026, the comprehensive index was 2,569.19, a decrease of 0.50%.
