1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The report suggests considering buying industrial silicon futures at low prices if the price drops to the range of 8,000 - 8,500 yuan/ton, with the main price fluctuation range expected to be between 8,000 - 9,500 yuan/ton. The main contract has shifted to SI2511, but investors are advised to control positions and manage risks in advance due to the high position in the 09 contract [3][4]. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - Downstream复产 is beneficial for supporting the demand and price recovery of industrial silicon. In August, the industrial silicon market is expected to see a simultaneous increase in supply and demand, approaching a tight - balance state. However, inventory and warehouse receipt pressures are starting to emerge. With the anti - involution policy and potential increases in raw material costs such as coal, the price center of industrial silicon is expected to move upwards [2][3][4]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Periodic and Spot Price Trends - Upstream raw material prices are starting to rise, industrial silicon and silicon powder prices have declined, downstream aluminum alloy prices have increased, and organic silicon prices have decreased. Industrial silicon prices have decreased by 4 - 5% month - on - month. For example, as of August 8, 2025, the price of oxygen - blown Si5530 in East China was 9,250 yuan/ton, a month - on - month decrease of 4.64%; the price of Si4210 in East China was 9,700 yuan/ton, a month - on - month decrease of 4.43%; and the price of 99 - grade silicon in Xinjiang was 8,550 yuan/ton, a month - on - month decrease of 5% [6][7][10]. 3.2 Supply Situation Analysis - In July 2025, industrial silicon production was about 338,300 tons, a 3% month - on - month increase and a 30% year - on - year decrease. The cumulative production from January to July was 2.2103 million tons, a 20% year - on - year decrease. In August, supply is expected to increase slightly, mainly from the partial复产 of large enterprises in Xinjiang and the increase in the operating rate in Southwest China. The total weekly output of four regions was 45,970 tons, a week - on - week increase of 2,510 tons and a year - on - year increase of 6,470 tons compared to the previous month, mainly due to the复产 in Xinjiang [29][31]. - Multiple local industrial silicon industry associations proposed initiatives to oppose involution, including not selling below full cost, not adding new furnaces or supporting new capacity, promoting new technologies to reduce costs and increase efficiency, and promoting the orderly exit of backward capacity. Although the market is not optimistic about capacity clearance and self - discipline, the overall price center of industrial silicon is expected to move upwards under the anti - involution policy. In 2025, there are still projects with a total capacity of over 1 million tons likely to be put into production, but more attention should be paid to capacity clearance [3][36]. 3.3 Demand Situation Analysis - **Polysilicon**: The price of polysilicon has been stable with a slight increase. The average price of SMM N - type re -投料 is maintained at 47,000 yuan/ton. In August, the production is expected to reach 125,000 - 130,000 tons. The weekly production has increased by 11% to 29,400 tons [38][39]. - **Silicon wafers**: The weekly production of silicon wafers has increased by 1.02GW to 12.02GW, a rise of about 9%, slightly lower than the increase rate of polysilicon [40]. - **Organic silicon**: After a fire at a large organic silicon enterprise, the operating rate has gradually increased, and the production is expected to recover to over 200,000 tons, but the supply - side pressure is increasing, which is putting downward pressure on prices [4]. - **Aluminum alloy**: The operating rate of aluminum alloy has stabilized, and the price has fluctuated upwards. In June, the production of aluminum alloy was stable with a slight increase, and exports also had a small increase. In June, the exports of industrial silicon, organic silicon, and aluminum alloy all recovered, but organic silicon exports were still weaker than last year [65][78]. 3.4 Cost - Profit Analysis - Raw material prices have fallen to a low level but have not broken through the lowest point in the past 8 years and have started to rise recently. In August, the electricity price in the flood season has further decreased, and the overall electricity price center has moved downwards, but it is still in the medium - high range in the past 10 years. The cost of Si5530 is about 9,800 - 12,000 yuan/ton, and the cost of Si4210 is about 10,000 - 12,200 yuan/ton [93][99][104]. 3.5 Inventory and Warehouse Receipt Changes - The decline in industrial silicon futures warehouse receipts and factory - warehouse inventories has narrowed, and social inventories have started to rise. Industrial silicon futures warehouse receipts have decreased slightly by 41 lots to 50,475 lots, equivalent to 252,400 tons. Social inventories total 547,000 tons, an increase of 7,000 tons, and factory - warehouse inventories have decreased by 1,400 tons to 170,000 tons [4].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The report gives a bullish outlook on polysilicon, suggesting it is likely to experience strong fluctuations. It recommends a strategy of buying on dips, with a focus on the polysilicon futures market [3][5]. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In August, both supply and demand of polysilicon are increasing, but the supply growth rate is higher, leading to inventory accumulation pressure. If there are new developments in capacity integration or exit, polysilicon prices may rise again; otherwise, they may fluctuate downward under inventory and warrant pressure [3][5]. - The anti - involution policy has supported the increase in polysilicon prices, and the industry is expected to shift from "scale expansion" to "quality development." The sustainability of price increases and their downstream transmission are key factors, and capacity integration and output regulation are important for the industry's sustainable development [30][31]. 3. Summary According to the Table of Contents 3.1 Periodic and Spot Price Trends - **Spot Price Trend Review**: Guided by the anti - involution policy, polysilicon prices remained stable, with an average price of about 47,200 yuan/ton. The average prices of various types of polysilicon, such as N - type recompounded materials, were stable, and the transaction prices showed a slight increase [7][8]. - **Spot Trend Analysis**: The price difference between PS2511 and PS2512 contracts is large, mainly because the warrants of the 11 - contract will be centrally cancelled upon expiration [9]. - **Futures Contract Price Trend**: The price of the main contract PS2511 increased by 3.23% to 50,790 yuan/ton [3][5]. 3.2 Supply and Demand Analysis - **Supply Side**: In August, polysilicon production is expected to reach 125,000 - 130,000 tons, with the weekly output increasing by 11% to 29,400 tons. There are 9 polysilicon enterprises in production this week, with one resuming production and another entering maintenance. The proportion of N - type polysilicon and granular silicon is increasing, and the industry is expected to see capacity integration and exit [18][19][21]. - **Demand Side**: Downstream product prices, such as silicon wafers, battery cells, and components, have increased to varying degrees, and demand has slightly recovered. Overseas demand may also increase. The weekly output of silicon wafers increased by 1.02GW to 12.02GW, an increase of about 9%. The output of battery cells and components in August is expected to increase slightly [5][32][49]. - **Supply - Demand Balance**: There is an oversupply situation, and inventory is expected to accumulate. The weekly output of polysilicon increased by 11%, while the weekly output of silicon wafers increased by 9%, slightly lower than the growth rate of polysilicon [5]. 3.3 Cost and Profit - The cost of polysilicon may increase due to the rise in raw material prices such as coal and industrial silicon. The increase in polysilicon prices is beneficial for profit repair in the photovoltaic industry, but the cost pressure will be transmitted to terminal installation enterprises. The acceptance of price increases by downstream power stations needs attention [68]. 3.4 Import and Export - The report provides data on China's polysilicon, monocrystalline silicon wafer, polycrystalline silicon wafer, battery cell, and component import and export volumes, but no specific analysis of trends is provided [71][81][97]. 3.5 Inventory - This week, polysilicon inventory increased by 0.4 tons to 233,000 tons, and warrants increased by 380 lots to 3,580 lots, equivalent to 10,740 tons. As prices rise above full cost, warrants are expected to further increase [5][105][106].

Market Overview - The market is currently experiencing a phase of consolidation, with the Shanghai Composite Index reaching new highs but failing to maintain those gains, indicating a need for time and space to digest recent movements [3][4][5] - The market sentiment is cautious, with a notable divergence between indices, particularly a stronger Shanghai index compared to weaker Shenzhen and ChiNext indices, reflecting internal market discrepancies [4][20] - Trading volume has decreased, with a total turnover of approximately 1.7 trillion, suggesting a lack of enthusiasm for chasing higher prices, which may hinder the ability to initiate a new upward trend [4][20] Sector Performance - Traditional sectors such as cement, engineering machinery, and hydropower have shown strong rebounds, while AI application sectors have collectively declined, negatively impacting market sentiment [3][19] - The military industry has seen significant gains, with a notable increase in stock prices, supported by government policies and geopolitical tensions that may act as catalysts for further growth [11][12] - The robotics sector has also experienced substantial growth, with a 60% increase in related stocks since early January, although a recent pullback suggests caution is warranted [12] - Precious metals have risen due to factors such as the onset of a rate-cutting cycle by the Federal Reserve and increased geopolitical tensions, which have driven demand for gold as a safe-haven asset [14] - The semiconductor sector remains a focal point for investment, with expectations of continued growth driven by government support and rising global demand for AI and high-performance computing [16] Investment Strategy - The report emphasizes the importance of selecting stocks with high certainty in performance and reasonable valuations, particularly those benefiting from policy support or industry trends [5][21] - Investors are advised to focus on sectors with structural opportunities, such as semiconductors, AI, and healthcare, while being cautious of stocks that have risen significantly without strong fundamental backing [5][21] - The outlook for the A-share market suggests a "slow bull" trend, with structural opportunities requiring enhanced stock-picking skills and timing [5][21]
