It is recommended to wait and see. The expected operating range of soda ash 2509 is 1150 - 1300 [6][11][12] - The glass futures market is in an oscillatory trend, with high inventory and weak demand. It is expected to operate weakly in an oscillatory manner. It is recommended to hold an empty position and wait and see. The expected operating range of glass 2509 is 950 - 1150 [31][34][35] 3. Summary by Directory Soda Ash Futures 3.1 Mid - line Market Analysis - The soda ash market was in a weak oscillation last week, with prices falling differentially. Light soda ash was priced at 940 - 1440 yuan/ton, and heavy soda ash at 960 - 1490 yuan/ton. Supply had minor fluctuations due to maintenance and复产, while demand was weak. The futures first declined and then rebounded briefly but faced limited upside due to prominent supply - demand contradictions. It is expected to maintain low - level oscillation, and changes in production capacity, inventory, and demand should be monitored. The mid - line strategy is to wait and see [6] 3.2 Variety Trading Strategy - **Last week's strategy review**: At the beginning of last week, soda ash rose due to policy benefits and sentiment but fell the next day. The industry's fundamentals were weak, with high开工, high inventory, high production capacity, and downstream glass production reduction expectations suppressing demand. The price was pressured by glass and was expected to oscillate in the short term, with the expected operating range of soda ash 2509 being 1150 - 1300. It was advisable to wait and see [11] - **This week's strategy suggestion**: The soda ash market was in a weak oscillation last week, with prices falling differentially. Supply had minor fluctuations, demand was weak, and the futures had a short - term rebound but limited upside. It is expected to oscillate at a low level in the short term, with the expected operating range of soda ash 2509 being 1150 - 1300. It is advisable to wait and see [12] 3.3 Relevant Data Situation - Relevant data include China's weekly soda ash开工 rate, production, light and heavy soda ash inventory, basis (daily), and ammonia - soda production cost in North China (weekly). The main force is relatively bearish, with a multi - empty flow of - 76.3, rapid inflow of main - force funds (energy of 84.1), and high risk of market reversal (multi - empty divergence of 92.1) [13][17][19][23] Glass Futures 3.1 Mid - line Market Analysis - The 5mm float glass market was stable with narrow oscillations last week, with limited price fluctuations. Supply remained stable, demand was regionally differentiated, and the market was in a wait - and - see state. The futures were oscillating weakly, suppressed by high inventory and weak demand, with cost and production reduction expectations limiting the decline. It is expected to operate weakly in an oscillatory manner, and the mid - line strategy is to hold an empty position and wait and see [31] 3.2 Variety Trading Strategy - **Last week's strategy review**: The float glass price oscillated last week, with some local areas rising slightly. The core of the market was inventory reduction. High inventory pressure persisted, and supply - demand did not improve significantly. It was expected to oscillate in the short term, with limited rebound space. The expected operating range of glass 2509 was 950 - 1150, and it was advisable to hold an empty position and wait and see [34] - **This week's strategy suggestion**: The 5mm float glass market was stable with narrow oscillations last week, with small price fluctuations. Supply was stable, demand was differentiated, and the market was in a wait - and - see state. It is expected that glass 2509 will operate in the range of 950 - 1150, and it is advisable to hold an empty position and wait and see [35] 3.3 Relevant Data Situation - Relevant data include China's weekly float glass production,开工 rate, production cost and gross profit of the float process using natural gas as fuel, basis (daily), and ending inventory.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - This week, the main PVC futures price fluctuated in the range of 4807 - 4956. As of the close on July 4, 2025, the V2509 contract closed at 4906 yuan/ton, down 0.26% from last week's close [9]. - On the supply side, affected by the shutdown and maintenance of plants such as Ningxia Yinglite and Inner Mongolia Sanlian this week, the PVC capacity utilization rate decreased by 0.65% month - on - month to 77.44%. On the demand side, the downstream PVC operating rate increased by 0.1% month - on - month to 42.88%, among which the pipe operating rate increased by 0.94% month - on - month to 39.5%, and the profile operating rate decreased by 0.25% month - on - month to 34.75%. In terms of inventory, this week's PP commercial inventory decreased by 0.09% month - on - month to 78.51 tons, at a neutral level in the same period of the past three years. In terms of cost, this week, the national average cost of the calcium carbide method increased slightly to 5109 yuan/ton, and the national average cost of the ethylene method increased to 5647 yuan/ton. The losses of the calcium carbide method and ethylene method processes deepened to varying degrees [9]. - In July, domestic PVC plants will have centralized maintenance. Next week, plants such as Shanxi Yushe, Yanhu Haina, and Ordos have shutdown plans, and it is expected that the capacity utilization rate will maintain a downward trend. In July, plants such as Wanhua, Bohua, and Tianjin Dagu are planned to be put into production. The policy to promote the withdrawal of backward production capacity is expected to relieve the future supply pressure. It is the off - season for domestic downstream demand, and the demand in the Indian market is suppressed by the rainy season. The Indian BIS certification has been postponed to mid - December, and the anti - dumping policy may be implemented in early July. In terms of cost, the impact of power rationing in Inner Mongolia has weakened, and some calcium carbide plants have resumed production; the United States has revoked the restrictions on ethane exports to China, which may drive down the cost of the ethylene method in the future. In the short term, the expectation of production capacity withdrawal and real - estate support policies gives room for the premium of the main futures contract, but the contract price is suppressed by the weak supply - demand and cost in the real market. It is expected that V2509 will fluctuate weakly next week. Technically, pay attention to the support around 4810 and the resistance around 4960 [9]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Week - on - Week Summary - Price: The main PVC futures price fluctuated in the range of 4807 - 4956. The V2509 contract closed at 4906 yuan/ton, down 0.26% from last week [9]. - Fundamentals: Supply - side capacity utilization decreased by 0.65% to 77.44%; demand - side downstream operating rate increased by 0.1% to 42.88%, with pipe operating rate up 0.94% and profile operating rate down 0.25%. PP commercial inventory decreased by 0.09% to 78.51 tons. Calcium carbide method cost rose to 5109 yuan/ton, and ethylene method cost rose to 5647 yuan/ton, with losses deepening [9]. - Outlook: July has centralized plant maintenance, capacity utilization is expected to decline. New plant launches and policy - driven capacity withdrawal may relieve supply pressure. It's the off - season for domestic demand, and Indian demand is affected by the rainy season. Cost may decline. The futures contract is expected to fluctuate weakly [9]. 3.2 Futures and Spot Markets 3.2.1 Futures Market - The V2509 contract fluctuated. The registered warehouse receipt volume increased slightly.

The basis was slightly weak, and the futures contract was at a premium [20][25][28]. 3.3 Industry Conditions 3.3.1 Upstream - The price of semi - coke remained stable, and calcium carbide was slightly stronger. The semi - coke operating rate was 39.59%, and the calcium carbide operating rate was 63.86%. The VCM CIF intermediate price was 520 dollars/ton, and the EDC international price was 184 dollars/ton [36][41][45]. 3.3.2 Industry Chain - Supply: The PVC capacity growth rate in 2025 is expected to be 10.77%. The output in June was 1.9913 million tons, a month - on - month decrease. The capacity utilization rate decreased week - on - week [49][53]. - Demand: The pipe operating rate increased week - on - week, and the profile operating rate decreased.

Summary by Product Methanol - The methanol futures price has risen. With the easing of the Iran - Israel situation, the expectation of a significant reduction in imported methanol supply has failed. Most current devices remain shut down, and the port inventory has decreased significantly. However, downstream acceptance of high - priced raw materials is average [2]. Urea - Urea agricultural demand is gradually approaching the end of the peak season, but there is still some rigid demand. The daily output has decreased slightly, and the supply - demand margin has improved. The export policy has been relaxed, and the port inventory has increased significantly. The short - term international urea price increase has driven the improvement of domestic demand [3]. Polyolefins - The futures prices of polyolefins have risen slightly. Some previously shut - down polyethylene devices have restarted, and the demand is in the off - season. The cost support for polypropylene has declined, and the downstream demand is weak [4]. Polyester - PX and PTA prices continue to fluctuate narrowly. The supply of PX and PTA may increase in the medium term, and the industrial supply - demand pattern may gradually become looser. The ethylene glycol price has fallen and is expected to stabilize. Short fiber and bottle chip prices have followed the raw materials to fluctuate slightly [6]. Chlor - Alkali - The PVC cost has increased, and the supply remains high. The domestic demand is weak, and the new orders are cautious. The caustic soda futures price is expected to continue the low - level trend, and the inventory has increased [7]. Glass and Soda Ash - The glass has shown strength recently due to slight inventory reduction and cost increase. The high - inventory and weak - demand pattern continues. The soda ash has shown strength due to production reduction and cost promotion, but the long - term supply pressure remains [8].
