Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Core Viewpoints - The glass market is in a game between "supply contraction expectations" (cold repair + policy) and "weak real - demand" (real - estate downturn), with high inventory being the biggest pressure on the market rebound. The market is expected to continue wide - range fluctuations, and attention should be paid to geopolitical situations and terminal demand recovery [1]. - The core logic of the soda ash market is the mismatch between high supply, weak demand, and high inventory. The market is expected to maintain volatile fluctuations in the short term, and attention should be paid to energy price changes and whether high inventory can be continuously reduced [2]. Summary by Related Content Glass - The glass main contract opened lower and moved higher, showing a slightly stronger intraday oscillation.

High inventory is the biggest pressure on the market rebound. Last month's real - estate data continued to be sluggish, and the recent recovery of downstream demand was also less than expected. The spot market still faces the pressure of high inventory and weak demand. The short - term market is affected by geopolitical news and fluctuates with international energy and raw material costs [1].

Among them, light soda ash is 946,800 tons, a decrease of 16,300 tons month - on - month, and heavy soda ash is 864,800 tons, a decrease of 25,900 tons month - on - month [2]. - The core logic of the soda ash market is the mismatch between high supply, weak demand, and high inventory. Short - term geopolitical risks push up energy costs and marginal inventory reduction support the market. However, due to the expected reduction in float glass production and the impact of the photovoltaic industry, the rigid demand for soda ash is weak. Overall, the fundamental driving force of soda ash is still weakening, and the market may face the risk of continuing to adjust downward in an oscillatory manner [2].
