Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2. Core Viewpoints - In the situation where neither supply nor demand can provide strong drivers, the price trend of industrial silicon shows a pattern of "stable spot prices and fluctuating futures prices." The futures price fluctuations mainly come from cost change expectations, capital sentiment, and event disturbances. Limited supply reduction, insufficient demand, and high inventory are important constraints on price breakthroughs, while cost is an important support at the lower end. The futures price may experience short - term pulse - type increases but lacks a sustainable trend. In the short term, the industrial silicon price is likely to remain range - bound. To achieve a trending market, new drivers are needed [1][30]. 3. Summary by Related Contents Supply - side Situation - In the southwest region, after entering the dry season, due to rising electricity prices and increased costs, the operating rates of some factories in Yunnan and Sichuan have significantly decreased. The weekly output has dropped by about 50% from the annual high, which is in line with seasonal characteristics. In the northwest region, production remains strong. Due to the advantage of coal - power costs and the ability to use hedging tools, enterprises can maintain a relatively high operating rate. As a result, the weekly national total output has decreased by less than 10% from the annual high. It is estimated that there is still some room for production decline in the southwest region. According to statistics, the production cost in Xinjiang is about 8,500 yuan/ton, significantly lower than that in the southwest region. If the northwest region maintains its operation, the overall production contraction is expected to be limited, and the impact of weather on production in the northwest needs to be monitored [6]. Demand - side Situation - **Polysilicon**: The polysilicon futures market focuses on warehouse receipts and the establishment of platform companies, with the near - month prices showing strength. However, from the perspective of the industrial chain supply - demand, the marginal change is not optimistic. In December, the production schedule of the downstream silicon wafer segment is 45.7GW, a decrease of about 16% compared to November's 54.37GW. The production schedule of the silicon material segment is 11.35 tons, with a limited month - on - month decline. The polysilicon inventory of silicon enterprises has reached 28 tons, and the pressure of inventory accumulation before the Spring Festival is increasing. Although the silicon material price is temporarily stable, with N - type material quoted at 50,000 - 52,000 yuan/ton, it is mainly a strategic price - holding behavior. If the platform company is established, the industry operating rate is expected to remain controlled, and the actual demand for industrial silicon will be insufficient [17]. - **Organic silicon**: The organic silicon industry has a greater impact on the industrial silicon market in terms of sentiment and expectations. After facing profit pressure and weak prices, the industry held a meeting, established a coordination mechanism, and planned to implement a production - reduction plan in early December, while also raising the spot price. Before December, the production of organic silicon DMC showed a slight increase, and the subsequent production - reduction plan is expected to have a relatively limited impact on the demand for industrial silicon. After the downstream profit is restored, the willingness to suppress the price of upstream raw materials may decrease, which will improve the price expectation of industrial silicon to some extent. However, if the production - reduction plan is fully implemented, the procurement of industrial silicon will be difficult to increase in a certain period [22]. - **Silicon - aluminum alloy and exports**: Driven by the industrial manufacturing and automotive industries, the operating rate of aluminum alloy has recently increased. After the end of the export rush, the export of industrial silicon decreased significantly in October, which cannot change the overall weak demand pattern [29].

Group 1: Report Overview - Report Name: "Soda Ash, Glass Daily Report" [1] - Date: December 2, 2025 [2] - Research Team: Energy and Chemical Research Team [4] Group 2: Industry Investment Rating - No investment rating information provided Group 3: Core Views - Soda Ash: The current weak supply - demand imbalance in the soda ash market has marginally eased but not fundamentally changed. In the short term, it will likely maintain a bottom - grinding and oscillating trend. In the medium - to - long - term, if there is a phased price rebound, a strategy of selling on rebounds can be adopted [9]. - Glass: The glass market is currently weaker than expected, with prices in a low - level oscillation pattern. In the short term, it will likely continue this trend. Attention should be paid to the implementation of production line cold repairs and changes in real estate demand [11]. Group 4: Market Review and Operation Suggestions Soda Ash - On December 1, the main soda ash futures contract SA601 oscillated weakly, closing at 1176 yuan/ton, down 5 yuan/ton or 0.50%, with a daily reduction of 24,299 lots [8]. - Supply is decreasing, with this week's production falling below 700,000 tons and the capacity utilization rate down 2.60% week - on - week. Demand is weak, with total shipments down 3.65% week - on - week. Inventory decreased 1.75% week - on - week [9]. Glass - The glass market is weaker than expected, with prices in a low - level oscillation. Spot prices do not support the market, and the supply reduction from the concentrated production line shutdown in the Shahe area did not meet expectations [10][11]. - Supply is stable, and inventory pressure is high. Demand is weak, especially in the real estate market. However, due to low profits, about 5,000 tons of production lines are expected to undergo cold repairs by the end of the year [11]. Group 5: Data Overview - The report provides data on soda ash and glass futures trading on December 1, including opening price, high price, low price, closing price, change, change rate, open interest, and open interest change [7]. - It also includes figures related to soda ash and glass, such as price trends, weekly production, enterprise inventory, market price, and flat glass production [13][18][20]

Polysilicon Market Situation Analysis - **Spot market price performance**: In November, the polysilicon price was basically stable. The N - type polysilicon price index decreased slightly month - on - month. The downstream silicon wafer and battery cell prices fell, but the polysilicon enterprises had a strong willingness to support the price [36][37] - **Supply**: The domestic polysilicon output in November was about 115,000 tons, a year - on - year decrease of about 14%. It was expected to remain stable or slightly change in December [43][44] - **Cost and profit**: Since the implementation of the "anti - involution" in July 2025, the polysilicon product profit turned from loss to profit. In November, the cost increased and the profit declined, but the overall industry was still profitable [46] - **Demand**: - **Silicon wafer**: In November, the silicon wafer price decreased, the profit was generally in a loss state, and the output decreased. The production schedule in December was expected to further decline [48][50] - **Battery cell**: In November, the battery cell price and profit weakened, the output decline was limited, and the production schedule in December was expected to be further lowered [53] - **Component**: The component market price was weakly stable and differentiated. The production in November decreased slightly, and the production schedule in December was expected to further decline [58][61] - **Inventory**: The polysilicon production enterprise inventory continued to accumulate, reaching 281,000 tons. The downstream demand was weak, and the procurement was mainly based on rigid demand [62] 4. Silicon Industry Demand: Silicone & Aluminum Alloy - **Silicone market performance and demand forecast for silicon**: In November, the DMC price of the silicone market changed greatly. After the industry meeting, the price was raised. In December, affected by the production reduction policy and market expectations, the demand for industrial silicon was expected to drop to 100,000 - 110,000 tons [65][71] - **Aluminum alloy market performance and demand forecast for silicon**: In November, the aluminum alloy industry demand was stable, and the silicon consumption was at a rigid demand level. In December, the demand in the new energy field was stable, and some enterprises might increase production slightly. It was expected that the silicon consumption would increase by 3% - 5% compared with November [74][75] 5.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Unilateral neutral, pay attention to the opportunity of going long the spread between MA2605 and MA2609 when the spread is low [1] 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The supply - demand situation in 2026 is expected to improve compared to 2025. The slowdown of non - integrated methanol production and the commissioning of downstream MTO devices are the main drivers. Traditional downstream industries also have a certain commissioning growth rate, which may gradually digest the high port inventory. Overseas, the pressure of new production capacity is not significant, and the duration of the winter maintenance at the end of 2025 will determine the absolute level of port inventory in 2026 [1][8] - The annual supply - demand is estimated to be balanced, with a significant improvement compared to 2025. The key drivers are the commissioning of traditional downstream industries and MTO devices, which boost demand. If there are supply - side problems in overseas operations, the inventory clearance rate of methanol will accelerate. There is an expectation of inventory reduction, but the current high inventory is a major issue [7][21] 3. Summary According to the Directory 3.1 Market News and Important Data - Overseas supply: In 2026, the nominal new foreign production capacity is 1.65 million tons, and the actual production capacity put into operation weighted by commissioning time is about 0.62 million tons/year, with an actual capacity growth rate of about 0.8%. The total import increment in 2026 is expected to be 1.37 million tons, with an import growth rate of about 9.6% [5] - Domestic non - integrated production: In 2026, the nominal new non - integrated production capacity is 1.2 million tons, and the actual production capacity put into operation weighted by commissioning time is about 0.98 million tons/year, with an actual capacity growth rate of 1.1% [5] - Demand increment: The new external - purchase methanol MTO devices will increase the methanol demand by 2.2 million tons/year after weighted by commissioning time, with a demand growth rate of 13.8%. In 2026, the new production capacity of traditional downstream industries will increase the nominal methanol demand by 3.33 million tons/year, and the actual demand increment is 2.5 million tons/year, driving the methanol demand growth by 7.9% [6] 3.2 Market Analysis - The supply - demand situation in 2026 is expected to improve compared to 2025. The slowdown of non - integrated methanol production and the commissioning of downstream MTO devices are the main factors. Traditional downstream industries also have a certain commissioning growth rate, which may gradually digest the high port inventory. Overseas, the pressure of new production capacity is not significant, and the duration of the winter maintenance at the end of 2025 will determine the absolute level of port inventory in 2026 [8] 3.3 Methanol Annual Balance Sheet Estimation - 2026 MTO and traditional downstream commissioning boost demand, and the high - level inventory is expected to be cleared. The annual supply - demand is estimated to be balanced, with a significant improvement compared to 2025. The key drivers are the commissioning of traditional downstream industries and MTO devices, which boost demand. If there are supply - side problems in overseas operations, the inventory clearance rate of methanol will accelerate [15][21] 3.4 Methanol Port Supply - Demand Analysis - New external devices: In 2026, the pressure of new overseas methanol production capacity is not significant. The nominal new production capacity is 1.65 million tons/year, and the actual capacity growth rate weighted by commissioning time is about 0.8% [22][23] - Overseas existing devices: In 2025, the Iranian methanol supply showed a pattern of low in the first half and high in the second half. The winter maintenance at the end of 2025 was late, and the actual maintenance duration needs attention. Non - Iranian supply also had different performance in different regions [25][26][31] - Internal - external price ratio: In the context of high port inventory, the import was in an inverted state, and the overseas premium performance was average [43] - Port inventory: In 2025, the port inventory reached a historical high. The winter maintenance of Iran was later than expected, and the inventory pressure in December 2025 continued. The inventory in different regions such as Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and South China all reached historical highs [49] - MTO new situation: In 2026, the new commissioning plan of external - purchase MTO is the highest since 2020, mainly including Shandong Lianhong Phase II and Guangxi Huayi. The integrated MTO mainly focuses on the commissioning plan of CCM Yulin Phase II in Q3 of 2026 [64] - MTO existing devices: In 2025, the operation of external - purchase MTO was acceptable. The maintenance was not concentrated, and the loss gradually recovered after the cease - fire between Iran and Israel [70][72] - Regional price difference: Pay attention to the sustainability of the window for port methanol to flow back to the inland [79] 3.5 Inland Supply - Demand Analysis - Inland methanol new situation: In 2026, the domestic commissioning pressure is not significant. The planned commissioning is 5.13 million tons/year, but non - integrated methanol devices are only 1.1 million tons/year [83] - Inland existing device load: Coal - based maintenance is mainly seasonal, and the winter maintenance of gas - based devices is still slow [90] - Non - integrated coal - based: The profit of coal - based methanol was good in the first three quarters of 2025, and the operation was acceptable [91] - Natural gas - based: The winter maintenance of southwest gas - based devices was late in 2025 [97] - Coke oven gas - based: Pay attention to the maintenance of coking enterprises. The operation of coke oven gas - based methanol has a certain long - term correlation with the coking operation rate [99][103] - Inland inventory: In 2025, the inventory of northwest enterprises decreased compared to 2024, and the inventory of east - China enterprises increased after October [105] - Traditional downstream performance: In 2025, acetic acid entered a loss and production - reduction stage after concentrated commissioning, while MTBE performed well driven by exports [109] - Traditional downstream new situation: In 2026, the new commissioning scale of traditional downstream industries is still considerable. The nominal new methanol demand is 3.33 million tons/year, and the actual new demand is 2.5 million tons/year [122][125]

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The investment rating for the propylene industry in 2026 is "Neutral" for single - side trading [2][11] 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In 2026, the fundamental pressure on propylene's market is difficult to change, with prices expected to oscillate weakly, refinery profits shrinking, and PDH profits gradually contracting. Although the demand increment from downstream propylene projects in 2026 is greater than the propylene production capacity increase, most downstream projects are scheduled for the fourth quarter. Therefore, the supply - demand situation will remain loose in the first half of the year, and attention should be paid to the PL03 - 05 inter - period reverse arbitrage opportunity. With the peak of downstream production capacity coming in the second half of the year, propylene inventory may gradually be reduced [2][11] 3. Summaries According to Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Market News and Important Data - **New Capacity**: 2026 is still a propylene production capacity expansion period in China, but the growth rate is expected to slow down compared to 2025. The expected new propylene production capacity in 2026 is 7.36 million tons, with a nominal capacity growth rate of 9.3% (the actual capacity growth rate weighted by the commissioning time is about 4.4%), significantly lower than that in 2025 [6][25] - **Supply Pattern**: In 2025, China's propylene industry was in a rapid capacity expansion period, with new production capacity reaching 9.485 million tons, intensifying the market supply pressure. The supply in the Shandong market remained loose [6][35] - **Import - Export Pattern**: In 2025, China's propylene imports generally decreased, and the import dependence gradually declined. The cumulative import volume from January to October was 1.8349 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 14.96%, and the cumulative export volume was 26,900 tons, a year - on - year decrease of 61.67%. The import dependence is expected to further decline [7][53] - **Demand Increment**: The propylene demand converted from downstream new projects in 2026 is 8.24 million tons, with a nominal growth rate of 9.57%. However, due to the concentration of downstream projects in the fourth quarter, the weighted actual demand growth rate may be only 3.86%, lower than the actual growth rate of new propylene production capacity. The inventory pressure will persist in Q1 - Q2, and the inventory may gradually be reduced in the second half of the year [7][116] 3.2 Market Analysis - In 2025, propylene supply was at a high level, with high upstream inventory and continuous price pressure. The core factor was the lack of obvious highlights in terminal demand. In the short term, there was no obvious sign of demand improvement. In the first half of 2026, the focus was on digesting the existing high inventory, but the supply remained loose. Attention should be paid to the positive feedback from PDH device maintenance [8] 3.3 Propylene 2025 Market Review - The domestic propylene spot price showed a downward trend in 2025, affected by supply - demand and cost factors. The price trend can be divided into four stages: a decline from the beginning of the year to early June, a short - term increase from late June to early August, a sharp decline from October to early November, and a weak rebound at the end of the year [17] - The propylene futures price showed a fluctuating downward trend, affected by the loose supply - demand situation and weak international oil prices. The game between warehouse receipt registration and delivery was an important factor affecting the futures price [18] 3.4 2026 China Propylene Commissioning Situation - From 2021 - 2025, the compound growth rate of propylene production capacity was 11.97%, with 9.485 million tons of new capacity in 2025, a growth rate of 13.6%. In 2026, the new capacity is expected to be 7.36 million tons, with a nominal growth rate of 9.3% (actual growth rate about 4.4%), lower than that in 2025 [25] 3.5 Propylene Supply Pattern and Production Profit Analysis - In 2025, the propylene supply was loose due to capacity expansion. The low - point of propylene operation mainly occurred in mid - to - late May, affected by PDH device maintenance. The profit of major refineries and PDH devices was compressed, which dragged down the operation rate, while the coal - based operation was less affected by profit [35][49] 3.6 Propylene Import - Export Pattern Analysis - In 2025, China's propylene imports decreased, and the import dependence declined. The import window remained closed, and the domestic price advantage was obvious. The import dependence is expected to further decrease [53] 3.7 Propylene Upstream Raw Material Propane Pattern Analysis - The price of propane had a significant impact on the profit of domestic PDH devices. In 2025, the propane price fluctuated greatly, affected by factors such as Sino - US tariffs, market demand, and supply. The price decline in the second half of the year compressed the profit of PDH devices and led to a decline in the operation rate [70] 3.8 Propylene Downstream Pattern Analysis - **Downstream Profit and Demand**: In 2025, the profit of propylene downstream products shrank, and the demand support was weak. Downstream factories mainly purchased propylene on a rigid - demand basis, putting downward pressure on the propylene price [86] - **2026 Downstream Commissioning Situation**: In 2026, the commissioning pace of propylene downstream projects slowed down. The converted propylene demand from downstream new projects was 8.24 million tons, with a nominal growth rate of 9.57%. However, the weighted actual demand growth rate may be only 3.86%, lower than the actual growth rate of new propylene production capacity. The inventory pressure will persist in the first half of the year and may be reduced in the second half [109][116] 3.9 Propylene and Downstream Inventory Situation and Outlook - In 2025, the propylene inventory remained high, and the high - production growth rate may continue in 2026. The inventory pressure of propylene and its downstream products such as PP and acrylonitrile will persist in the first half of 2026, but the PP inventory may be reduced in the first half of 2026 due to the slowdown of new capacity commissioning [117]

Report Information - Report Name: Soda Ash and Glass Daily Report [1] - Date: November 27, 2025 [2] - Research Team: Energy and Chemical Research Team [4] Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Core Viewpoints - Soda ash continues its weak pattern of supply - demand imbalance. In the short - term, it will experience bottom - grinding oscillations, and in the medium - to - long - term, it may be treated with a strategy of shorting on rebounds [8] - The current glass price has limited room to decline further. The mid - term market direction is still dominated by fundamentals. Without new market expectations, the downward trend of the market is difficult to reverse [9] Summary by Section 1. Soda Ash and Glass Market Review and Operation Suggestions Soda Ash - On November 26, the main soda ash futures contract SA601 oscillated at a low level. The closing price was 1,175 yuan/ton, remaining unchanged from the previous day, with a daily reduction of 27,403 lots in positions [7] - Soda ash maintains a weak supply - demand imbalance. Although weekly production and operating rates have declined, the absolute output remains high.
