1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report - Glass: The core contradiction in the glass industry remains weak demand, and significant improvement is unlikely in 2026. If the supply side can significantly contract, the market may reverse. Policy - driven supply contraction is possible, especially in Hubei in the second half of 2026. The key variable in 2026 is still the policy end, and the pattern of rising by expectation and falling by delivery will continue [1][104]. - Soda Ash: High production and high inventory are the core pressures on the soda ash industry. In 2026, there may be nearly 10% incremental production capacity. The industry needs to further reduce production to resolve the dilemma. Key variables in 2026 include export market trends, supply reduction due to low prices, and the resolution of warehouse receipt pressure [2][105]. 3. Summary According to the Directory 3.1 2025 Glass and Soda Ash Trend Review - Glass: In 2025, glass was weak. The price of the main contract dropped from 1470 yuan/ton to 950 yuan/ton, a decline of 35.4%. Factory inventory increased, and order volume declined. The market was affected by concerns about the capital situation of real - estate and glass processing enterprises. After a brief rebound in July, the price continued to fall from October [5]. - Soda Ash: In 2025, the soda ash market faced pressure from expanding production capacity and weak downstream demand. The price decreased significantly, with the average price of heavy soda ash in Hebei Shahe dropping by about 33.3% compared to 2024. The industry's capacity utilization rate declined, and inventory remained high. Although exports increased by 101.6% year - on - year as of November, the overall situation was still challenging [6][7]. 3.2 Real Estate Market Creeping Forward with Policy Support but No Boost - In 2026, the real - estate market is still difficult to improve substantially. The potential large - scale interest rate cuts and quantitative easing in the US may help domestic real - estate debt resolution in the second half of 2026. Domestic policies aim to stabilize the market, and although the decline rate of real - estate indicators has slowed, full recovery still takes time [8][9]. 3.3 Demand under Pressure, Supply Changes More Important in 2026 3.3.1 Demand Still under Pressure - Glass Processing: The production of glass deep - processing products decreased. As of October 2025, the cumulative production of tempered glass decreased by 6.8% year - on - year, hollow glass by 9.2%, and LOW - E glass had a low operating rate. The industry is in a negative feedback loop [23][24]. - Regional and Non - standard Arbitrage: Regional spreads narrowed, making regional arbitrage more difficult. Non - standard products, especially small - sized glass, were weak, which affected the non - standard arbitrage in Hebei. Large manufacturers no longer supported prices, and regional competition became more differentiated [34]. 3.3.2 Production Changes as the Future Key Variable - Policy: Since the second half of 2025, central policies have focused on "anti - deflation and anti - involution". The Hubei Ecological Environment Department requires energy transformation of glass kilns by the end of 2026, which may significantly impact the market [41][42]. - Supply - side Market Changes: In 2025, the glass industry's supply was slightly high, and production reduction was not active. In 2026, potential new line ignition and old line restart scale are high, but actual production depends on market demand. If demand remains poor, production reduction may resume in the second half of 2026 [50][52]. - Inventory Differentiation: As of November 2025, national glass factory inventory increased by 33.6% year - on - year, with significant regional differences. Inventory differentiation is due to factors such as proximity to demand, direct sales, and deep - processing capacity expansion. This may lead to further fragmentation of the glass industry [60]. 3.4 Photovoltaic Glass - In 2025, the photovoltaic glass market was volatile. Supply increased in the first half of the year but decreased later due to over - capacity. Demand was affected by trade risks and grid consumption factors. Prices fluctuated throughout the year. In 2026, the market may face pressure in the first half, but the second half is not overly pessimistic [68][69][82]. 3.5 Soda Ash Supply Surplus Pressure Remains High, Price Fluctuation Range May Shrink - Stock Supply Game: In 2025, soda ash supply changes mainly came from stock supply games. In 2026, glass industry production reduction may drive soda ash production reduction. Seasonal maintenance and matching with glass supply are important factors in soda ash supply [87]. - Inventory Structure and Relative Spread Support: In 2025, the soda ash market was supported by almost equal light - heavy spreads and good export performance. Inventory was concentrated, and high - inventory manufacturers took measures to hedge risks. Future export growth and heavy - to - light soda conversion may support the market [92]. - Long - term Trend: The potential new production capacity of soda ash from the end of 2025 to 2026 is 480 - 630 tons, with a potential increase of over 10%. The long - term problem of high production and high inventory needs to be resolved through industry supply clearance [102].

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Group 2: Core Views of the Report - Glass: Short - term is volatile and weak, medium - term is a volatile market. The short - term pressure mainly comes from the under - expected production cut. Although the market transaction was good this week, the futures market was still weak. In the long - term, the policy factors of anti - deflation and anti - involution are not clearly falsified, so the long - term trend should not be overly bearish. [2] -纯碱: The trend is weak. The problems of high production and high inventory in the soda ash industry have not slowed down but increased. It depends on either large - scale production cuts in soda ash or continuous improvement in the glass industry to drive positive market feedback. [3] Group 3: Summary by Related Catalogs Glass Supply - This week, there were slight changes in the float glass production lines. Four production lines in Shahe were shut down, and one in Dalian was put into production. As of November 6, 2025, there were 296 glass production lines in China (200,000 tons per day), with 222 in production and 74 cold - repaired and shut down. The daily output of national float glass was 159,100 tons, a 1.33% decrease compared to 30 days ago. [2] - In 2025, the total daily melting volume of cold - repaired production lines was 11,680 tons per day; the total daily melting volume of ignited production lines was 13,910 tons per day; the total daily melting volume of potentially newly ignited production lines was 14,790 tons per day; the total daily melting volume of potentially restarted old production lines was 10,030 tons; and the total daily melting volume of potentially cold - repaired production lines was 7,950 tons per day. [6][7][8] - After the production cut in Shahe, the further production cut space within the year is limited. Currently, the in - production capacity is about 159,000 tons per day, and the peak capacity in 2021 was 178,000 tons per day. [11] Demand - As of October 31, 2025, the average order days of national deep - processing sample enterprises were 10.8 days, a 4.0% increase month - on - month and a 16.1% decrease year - on - year. The deep - processing orders were differentiated, with a slight increase in the north and flat or decreased orders in the south. [2] Inventory - As of November 6, 2025, the total inventory of national float glass sample enterprises was 63.136 million heavy boxes, a decrease of 2.654 million heavy boxes month - on - month (4.03% decrease) and a 29.05% increase year - on - year. The inventory days were 27.1 days, a decrease of 0.9 days from the previous period. [2] - The production cut in Shahe drove the improvement of spot transactions and a slight decrease in inventory. This year, the inventory reduction started in the third quarter and the intensity in the fourth quarter was not strong, different from the previous years when the main inventory reduction period was in the fourth quarter. [29][32] Price and Profit - Some manufacturers slightly increased prices, while most remained unchanged. The price in Shahe was around 1,120 - 1,140 yuan/ton; in Hubei, central China, it was 1,100 - 1,140 yuan/ton (some increased by 20 - 40 yuan/ton); in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, eastern China, the price of some large manufacturers was around 1,250 - 1,280 yuan/ton. [14][18] - The spot price changed little, but the futures price dropped more, and the basis strengthened. The profit of petroleum coke was about - 1.77 yuan/ton, and the profits of natural gas and coal - fired fuels were about - 72 and 78 yuan/ton respectively. [19][22] Photovoltaic Glass Price and Profit - The recent market transactions have started to weaken, and this situation is expected to continue. The mainstream order price of 2.0mm coated panels was 12.5 - 13 yuan/square meter, and that of 3.2mm coated panels was 19.5 - 20 yuan/square meter, both unchanged month - on - month. [40][42] Capacity and Inventory - The market transactions have started to weaken, and the inventory is expected to increase seasonally later. There were 406 photovoltaic glass production lines in production in China, with a total daily melting volume of 87,000 tons per day, a 1.36% decrease month - on - month and an 11.64% decrease year - on - year. The sample inventory days were about 24.06 days, a 6.43% increase month - on - month. [44][49][53] Soda Ash Supply and Maintenance - Some soda ash plants had phased maintenance and reduced production. The overall maintenance volume in the fourth quarter is generally low. The capacity utilization rate of soda ash was 85.6%, down from 86.9% last week. The current weekly output of heavy soda ash was about 414,800 tons per week. [59][61] Inventory - The total inventory of domestic soda ash manufacturers was about 1.7142 million tons, an increase of 12,200 tons (0.72% increase) from last week. Among them, the inventory of light soda ash was 814,600 tons, a decrease of 1,000 tons month - on - month; the inventory of heavy soda ash was 899,600 tons, an increase of 13,200 tons month - on - month. [64][66] Price and Profit - The low - end price in Shahe was 1,155 yuan/ton. The nominal prices in Shahe and Hubei were around 1,155 - 1,400 yuan/ton. The enterprise quotations changed little. The profit of the combined - alkali method in East China (excluding Shandong) was - 174 yuan/ton, and the profit of the ammonia - soda method in North China was - 43 yuan/ton. [76][77][84]
