Core Viewpoint - The industrial silicon spot prices remained stable over the past week, with minor fluctuations observed in the market, indicating a cautious but improving market sentiment [1]. Supply and Demand Analysis - Supply side: Industrial silicon manufacturers are producing according to plan, with slight production increases from the Southwest region due to some resumption of operations and new capacity coming online [1]. - Demand side: There is an expected increase in operating rates for organic silicon monomer plants in northern regions, which will boost demand for industrial silicon. Additionally, there is a slight increase in operating rates for polysilicon plants, maintaining demand for industrial silicon. Aluminum alloy plants are operating normally, keeping demand stable [1]. Price Dynamics - The overall market for industrial silicon remains under pressure, with prices expected to continue fluctuating within a lower range due to increased supply and limited demand growth. Organic silicon monomer plants are facing inventory pressure, leading to competitive pricing and price declines. The drop in silicon wafer prices has also contributed to a negative sentiment in polysilicon procurement, further impacting prices [1].
