Core Insights - The current A-share market is facing two significant underlying logical changes: structural imbalance in internal positions and substantial macroeconomic changes [1] - The report emphasizes the importance of determining whether the current situation is more comparable to early 2021 or early 2022, as historical pricing reviews indicate essential differences between the two periods [1][10] Historical Pricing Review - In March 2021, the core essence of the decline was structural adjustment rather than the onset of a systemic downturn. The decline was triggered by a rapid rise in U.S. Treasury yields and deteriorating micro trading structures, leading to a significant correction in previously favored "Mao Index" core assets [2] - The Shanghai Composite Index fell by 8.1%, while the ChiNext Index dropped nearly 21.6%. However, the market did not enter a full bear market but instead completed a clear shift in main lines, with the "Ning Combination" replacing the "Mao Index" as the core trading focus [2][11] - In February 2022, the decline was characterized as a defensive reduction rather than a simple style rebalancing, driven by weakening risk appetite, declining incremental funds, and profit expectations. The decline was triggered by inflation expectations stemming from the Russia-Ukraine conflict, with the total A-share market dropping 9.46% in January 2022 [3][11] Current Market Analysis - Based on the historical scenarios, two core scenarios are projected for the current market: 1. If the macro environment shows moderate inflation and resilient global economic characteristics, the current market is more likely to resemble March 2021, with the Shanghai Composite Index's performance aligning with this scenario [4][12] 2. If clear stagflation and a pause in the global rate cut cycle occur, the current market will resemble early 2022, necessitating a comprehensive reduction in positions and a shift towards defensive strategies [4][12] Sector Positioning - The report highlights that as of Q4 2025, domestic institutions have a significant allocation in the pan-technology sector, exceeding 50%, with the total allocation in overseas sectors approaching 70%. This indicates a structural imbalance that necessitates a rebalancing strategy moving forward [7][33] - The report suggests a focus on "new and old coexisting" strategies, emphasizing the selection of representative structural directions within technology, overseas, and resource sectors for effective portfolio management [7][8] Investment Themes - The report identifies four key rebalancing themes: 1. New and old rebalancing 2. Internal rebalancing within resource sectors 3. Internal rebalancing within technology sectors 4. Internal rebalancing within overseas sectors [8] - The emphasis is on identifying low-positioned value stocks and adjusting to the changing macroeconomic landscape, particularly in light of rising oil prices and a strengthening dollar [33][29]

Group 1: Market Dynamics - Since March, international gold prices have rapidly adjusted, influenced by macroeconomic variables rather than previous high trading congestion and balance sheet reduction expectations[1] - The initial adjustment was triggered by the outbreak of the US-Iran war, leading to a liquidity crisis as oil and the dollar strengthened significantly[1] - As of March 23, the overnight swap market began pricing in an expected 0.8 rate hikes by the Federal Reserve this year, with other central banks also expected to raise rates[5] Group 2: Technical Indicators - Short-term technical indicators for gold show oversold conditions, with the London gold RSI dropping to an extreme value of 21.1, but a reversal trend remains unclear[2] - The gold-oil ratio has fallen to 41, nearing levels seen during the first significant correction in August 2020, indicating a return to long-term average levels[2] - Key support levels for gold are identified at 4300, 3900-4000, and 3400-3500 points, suggesting a cautious approach in the short term[2] Group 3: Economic Outlook - The US economy is showing signs of slowing growth, with private durable goods consumption growth decelerating to 1% in January[2] - The unemployment rate is projected to rise, with non-farm payroll additions nearing zero, indicating potential recession risks[2] - High oil prices may accelerate the onset of recession, prompting the Federal Reserve to reassess recession risks and possibly restart easing policies[2] Group 4: Long-term Implications - The prolonged US-Iran conflict poses multiple challenges to the credibility of the dollar, potentially weakening its dominance in global markets[3] - If the consensus shifts towards a decline in US comprehensive national power, gold may enter a new bull market phase[3] - Historical data suggests that gold performs well in stagflation environments, despite current market corrections focusing on inflation while neglecting economic stagnation pressures[2]

1. Report Industry Investment Ratings - Bean No.1: Not clearly defined [1] - Soybean Oil: Not clearly defined [1] - Palm Oil: Not clearly defined [1] - Rapeseed Oil: Not clearly defined [1] - Soybean Meal: Not clearly defined [1] - Rapeseed Meal: Not clearly defined [1] - Corn: Not clearly defined [1] - Live Pigs: ★★★ (indicating a more distinct bearish trend and a relatively appropriate investment opportunity) [1] - Eggs: ★☆☆ (indicating a bullish bias but poor operability on the market) [1] 2. Core Views - The market is affected by multiple factors such as the geopolitical situation in the Middle East, energy prices, fertilizer supply, and climate. There are uncertainties in the supply chain of agricultural products, and investors need to pay attention to various risk factors [2][3][4] - Different agricultural products have different price trends and influencing factors. For example, the price of bean No.1 futures is mainly in a callback, and the price of live pigs is difficult to reverse in the medium - term, while the price of eggs is expected to gradually strengthen [2][8][9] 3. Summary by Related Catalogs 3.1 Bean No.1 - The main contract of bean No.1 futures reduced positions, and the price mainly declined. The market is affected by factors such as the decline of crude oil prices, the geopolitical situation in the Middle East, and the cost of new - season crops [2] 3.2 Soybean & Soybean Meal - Trump's statement indicates that the relationship between the US and Iran may ease, and the prices of agricultural products affected by fertilizer prices and international freight have weakened. The 2605 contract of Dalian Commodity Exchange reduced more than 80,000 lots and fell 1.6%. Brazil's soybean harvest rate is lower than last year, and the export plan to China is still at a high level. The shipment volume of US soybeans to China decreased. Multiple factors affect the market, and uncertainties are increasing [3] 3.3 Soybean Oil & Palm Oil - Crude oil prices dropped significantly, and the global financial market fluctuated sharply. The price difference between vegetable oil and petro - diesel continued to decline, which was beneficial for the marginal improvement of biodiesel. The prices of natural gas in Asia and Europe were strong, and new - season crops faced the risks of fertilizer supply interruption and cost increase. The market expected a higher probability of planting more soybeans and less corn, but it needed to be verified. The market is affected by both inflation and recession logics [4] 3.4 Rapeseed Meal & Rapeseed Oil - The prices of rapeseed products followed the market decline. The statements of the US and Iran will affect the pricing of geopolitical factors in the oilseed market. The inventory and operating rate of coastal rapeseed oil mills are low, but the supply is expected to increase. The demand for rapeseed meal is expected to be boosted seasonally, and it is recommended to wait and see [6] 3.5 Corn - The prices of corn in some ports in the north increased slightly, while the prices in Shandong decreased. The increase in the auction volume of state - supported wheat and the opening of enterprise qualification may impact the corn price. With the warming of the weather in the northeast, the selling sentiment may weaken, and investors need to pay attention to the callback risk [7] 3.6 Live Pigs - The decline of live pig futures in the far - month contracts slowed down, and the overall position increased by nearly 10,000 lots. The spot price continued to decline. The inventory pressure needs to be relieved, the production capacity reduction is insufficient, and the supply - demand situation is loose throughout the year, so the mid - term reversal of pig prices is difficult [8] 3.7 Eggs - The price of egg futures decreased with increased positions, while the spot price was stable with a slight upward trend. The number of newly - hatched laying hens will be lower than the number of old hens to be culled in the next five months, and the egg inventory is expected to decline. It is recommended to lay out long positions at low levels [9]

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The conflict between the US, Israel, and Iran has reversed the previous pro - cyclical and re - inflation environment, and the commodity market may seek a direction between stagflation and recession in the future. The impact on oil prices, the macro - economy, and asset pricing logic will significantly exceed that of the same period in history [7][12]. - In the shipping industry, the geopolitical conflict has increased costs, and the recovery of shipping will take time. The price of shipping depends on the duration of the blockade [12][22]. - In the polyester bottle - chip industry, the supply is tightening, and the industry has emerged from the loss dilemma. In the short term, it can be operated with a long - bias, but there is a risk of decline if the geopolitical situation eases [22][30]. - In the asphalt industry, the supply is tight, the demand is weak, and the support for the price is strong. It is expected to maintain a high - level shock in the second quarter [31][35]. - In the soda ash industry, the market may first trade the speculative purchases of the downstream and mid - stream due to imported inflation, but there are opportunities for short - selling at high levels later [37][40]. - In the precious metals market, gold and silver are facing short - term headwinds due to tightened liquidity and concerns about interest - rate hikes [41][46]. - In the agricultural products market, the rise in oil prices affects agricultural products through cost and substitution paths. If oil prices remain high for a long time, the impact on agricultural product prices will become more obvious [50][57]. Summary by Directory Macro: From Risk Shock to Supply - Demand Reshaping - The Impact of Middle East Geopolitical Risks on Commodity Trends - Before the conflict, the market had a pro - cyclical expectation. After the US - Israel attack on Iran on February 28, the situation reversed. The conflict cut off the industrial chain cycle, causing a sharp rise in oil prices and a greater impact on the economy [7]. - Historically, in seven US - involved conflicts related to geopolitics or resource - rich countries, the price of crude oil rose in three cases and fell in four cases. Gold showed different trends in different conflicts, mainly related to the market's understanding of monetary policy during the war. The US dollar's trend is complex, and in this Iran conflict, it may not be very weak in the short and medium term. Copper will trade the recession expectation at a certain stage and then rebound [9][11]. - After the US - Israel attack on Iran, the pro - cyclical and re - inflation environment has changed. The commodity market may face stagflation or recession. The supply constraint - driven price increase may not be sustainable, and the risk of commodity price decline is accumulating [12]. Shipping: Geopolitical Conflict Raises Costs, Shipping Companies Impose Fuel Surcharges - The passage of the Hormuz Strait remains basically stagnant, with 1110 ships stranded, including 773 of the three major ship types. The passage situation is unlikely to improve significantly in the short term, and it will take time for shipping to recover even if the war eases [14][16]. - The Mandeb Strait and the Suez Canal have not been significantly affected for the time being, but if the Houthi rebels restart attacks in the Red Sea, these routes will be greatly affected [17]. - Fuel costs and insurance premiums have risen significantly. The price of marine low - sulfur fuel oil has more than doubled, and most shipping companies have suspended bookings for Middle - East routes [18]. - There are alternative solutions for Middle - East routes, but they have high costs and low efficiency. The follow - up actions of the Houthi rebels will affect shipping companies' capacity deployment [19]. - The spot freight rate of European routes is oscillating in the off - season, and the freight rate of Middle - East routes is in high - level game. The short - term focus is on the cargo - receiving situation of shipping companies in April, and the medium - and long - term freight rate depends on the blockade time [20][22]. Polyester Bottle Chips: Tightening Supply and Peak Season, Bottle Chips Out of the Loss Dilemma - The driving logic of the market has shifted from the cost side to the supply side. The reduction of PX load will affect the supply of downstream PTA [22]. - In the price - difference structure, naphtha is the strongest, and the price difference between PX and naphtha is weak. The profit - compression space of PX and PTA is large [23]. - Due to refinery load reduction and the maintenance season, the supply of PX is expected to decrease, and the supply of PTA is also under pressure. The load of ethylene glycol is affected by raw materials, and the import is expected to decrease [24][26]. - The load of polyester is seasonally rising, and the inventory of polyester products is differentiated. Bottle chips perform better than short - fibers, and the price difference strategy between them can be concerned [29]. - In the short term, the market can be operated with a long - bias, but there is a risk of decline if the geopolitical situation eases. It is not recommended to chase positive spreads in the month - spread, and the month - spread can be narrowed at high prices [30]. Asphalt: Tight Supply, Weak Demand, and Continued Concerns about Raw Materials - The current market is driven by supply tightening and domestic refinery production cuts. In mid - March, as the Middle - East situation intensified and the cost increased, some refineries reduced or stopped production, driving the price up [31]. - The supply of asphalt in the southern region has decreased significantly, and the demand recovery is still weak. The demand for road - modified asphalt is at the lowest level in the same period, and the demand for waterproofing membranes has only recovered to the medium - low level [32]. - The core driving factors include the increase in raw material prices due to the Middle - East conflict, the problem of raw material inventory from the Venezuela event, and the supply concern of other heavy - quality raw materials [33][34]. - In the future, at least in the second quarter, the asphalt price is expected to maintain a high - level shock due to the peak demand season and raw - material inventory consumption [35]. Soda Ash: Continued Geopolitical Disturbance, Differentiated Trends of Weak - Fundamentals Varieties - In the first three weeks of the conflict, the market sentiment was intense in the first week, with energy products leading the rise. In the second week, the sentiment was differentiated, and the rise and fall narrowed. In the third week, glass and soda ash entered the top ten decliners [36]. - In the fourth week, the mutual attacks on energy facilities between the US and Iran strengthened the market's pricing of the energy crisis. Coal prices rose, driving soda ash prices up [37]. - The cost of soda ash is affected by coal prices, but the impact is limited. The supply of soda ash is at a historical high, and the demand is strong in the short term but may face negative feedback later [38][39]. - In the short term, soda ash prices may be strong, but there are opportunities for short - selling at high levels. The strategy of going long on soda ash and short on glass can be considered, and selling call options can also be considered [40]. Gold and Silver: Geopolitical Factors Drag on Liquidity Tightening, Gold and Silver Face Short - Term Headwinds - Since March 2, the prices of gold and silver have weakened due to tightened liquidity and concerns about interest - rate hikes, and they have broken through key moving averages technically [41][42]. - Historically, the price of gold is highly sensitive to the US real yield. In the short term, the negative factors of gold are dominant, and it is recommended to operate with a short - bias in the short term and wait for positive signals in the medium and long term [45][46]. - The price of silver generally follows that of gold. The relative valuation adjustment of silver has been completed, but attention should be paid to the impact of changes in ETF demand on the supply - demand pattern. It is recommended to operate with a short - bias in the short term [47][49]. Agricultural Products: Geopolitical Conflict Raises Costs, Analysis of the Impact on Agricultural Products - Crude oil affects agricultural products through cost and substitution paths. The cost of fertilizers and transportation has increased significantly since the conflict [50][51]. - The correlation between US agricultural products and crude oil is higher than that in China. Different agricultural products have different correlations with crude oil, and the impact paths are also different [52]. - Different crops and countries have different sensitivities to fertilizer price increases. Corn is the most sensitive, and Brazil is highly sensitive to fertilizer price increases [56]. - The rise in oil prices affects agricultural products through multiple paths. If oil prices remain high for a long time, the impact on agricultural product prices will become more obvious [57].

Core Viewpoint - The A-share market has experienced a significant decline, with the Wind All A index dropping by 4.13%. The market is currently trading on "stagflation" expectations, with concerns that inflation may rise rapidly, suppressing demand and potentially leading to a recession. Despite this, the A-share market still holds investment value due to China's stable supply capabilities amidst global supply vulnerabilities caused by geopolitical events. The recommendation is to focus on structural opportunities in China's advantageous sectors once market sentiment shifts [3][22]. Market Performance - The A-share market has seen a comprehensive pullback, with significant declines in broad-based indices such as the CSI 500 and the Guozheng 2000, which experienced deeper weekly losses [9]. - Key indices and their weekly performance include: - Shanghai Composite Index: -2.47% - CSI 300: -2.19% - CSI 500: -5.82% - Guozheng 2000: -5.45% - ChiNext Index: +1.26% [10][17]. Industry Performance - In terms of industry performance, the communication, banking, and food & beverage sectors showed relatively better performance with weekly changes of +2.10%, +0.36%, and -0.48% respectively [14][17].

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided Core Viewpoints of the Report - The steel market is in a "weak balance" state with marginal improvement in demand and gradual inventory reduction, but no strong trend - driving force has been formed yet. Attention should be paid to the release rhythm of peak - season demand and the impact of raw material price fluctuations on the cost side [2] - Due to resource - structure issues and overseas geopolitical conflicts, iron ore prices are oscillating at a high level, and the amplitude of recent fluctuations has increased [5] - In the medium - to - long term, the trend of commodity bulls is not over, but in the short term, attention should be paid to the phased callback pressure of prices under the macro - recession expectation and the high - volatility attribute under the uncertain Middle - East situation. The black sector is under relatively low pressure [9][15] - The prices of manganese - silicon and silicon - iron are affected by the overall sentiment of the black sector, cost - push factors, and supply - contraction expectations. Attention should be paid to the situation of manganese ore and the progress of the "dual - carbon" policy [10] - For coking coal and coke, in the short term, the fundamental factors supporting a sharp price rebound are insufficient, and short - term long - position operations or temporary waiting are recommended. In the medium - to - long term, coking coal prices are still optimistic, especially from June to October [15] - Industrial silicon prices are expected to oscillate, supported by cost in the short term, while polysilicon prices are expected to oscillate and find a bottom due to weak fundamentals [18][20][22] - Float - glass prices are expected to oscillate widely in the short term, and attention should be paid to the release rhythm of actual demand and inventory changes in major production areas. Soda - ash prices are expected to continue to oscillate widely at a low level [25][27] Summary by Directory Steel 行情资讯 - The closing price of the rebar main contract in the afternoon was 3154 yuan/ton, up 31 yuan/ton (0.992%) from the previous trading day. The registered warehouse receipts on that day were 59,955 tons, a net increase of 10,669 tons. The open interest of the main contract was 1.3514 million lots, a net decrease of 35,832 lots. In the spot market, the aggregated price of rebar in Tianjin was 3210 yuan/ton, up 20 yuan/ton; that in Shanghai was 3250 yuan/ton, up 20 yuan/ton [1] - The closing price of the hot - rolled coil main contract was 3330 yuan/ton, up 33 yuan/ton (1.000%) from the previous trading day. The registered warehouse receipts on that day were 522,206 tons, a net decrease of 589 tons. The open interest of the main contract was 1.0554 million lots, a net decrease of 42,832 lots. In the spot market, the aggregated price of hot - rolled coils in Lecong was 3300 yuan/ton, up 20 yuan/ton; that in Shanghai was 3300 yuan/ton, up 20 yuan/ton [1] 策略观点 - The commodity index continued to oscillate at a high level, and the prices of finished steel products generally maintained an oscillating and slightly stronger trend. The real - estate data from January to February were still weak, indicating insufficient recovery momentum in real - estate investment. The support of real - estate for steel demand is still limited in the short term, and terminal demand is likely to remain weak. The demand for hot - rolled coils has recovered rapidly, production has increased slightly, and inventory has entered the destocking stage. The supply and demand of rebar have both increased, and inventory has decreased slightly, showing a neutral performance overall [2] Iron Ore 行情资讯 - The main iron - ore contract (I2605) closed at 819.00 yuan/ton, with a change of +0.43% (+3.50). The open - interest change was - 8257 lots, changing to 441,900 lots. The weighted open interest of iron ore was 875,700 lots. The spot price of PB fines at Qingdao Port was 798 yuan/wet ton, with a basis of 28.89 yuan/ton and a basis rate of 3.41% [4] 策略观点 - In terms of supply, the overseas ore shipments in the latest period increased month - on - month. The shipments from Australia increased, those from Brazil remained basically stable, and the shipments from non - mainstream countries increased slightly. The near - end arrivals decreased. In terms of demand, the daily average pig - iron output according to the Steel Union's data increased by 69,500 tons month - on - month to 2.2815 million tons. The blast furnaces that resumed production were mainly those in Hebei after the end of production restrictions, and it is expected that pig - iron output will continue to rise. The profitability rate of steel mills continued to rise slightly. In terms of inventory, the port inventory decreased slightly from the high level, and the steel mills' imported - ore inventory increased. Overall, the overseas supply of iron ore fluctuates at a high level, and the BHP negotiation issue intensifies the expectation of resource - structure tension. The Middle - East conflict affects the commodity market, increasing freight costs and slightly disturbing the supply side. The demand for pig - iron is gradually recovering after the end of production restrictions. Affected by resource - structure issues and overseas geopolitical conflicts, iron - ore prices are oscillating at a high level [5] Manganese - Silicon and Silicon - Iron 行情资讯 - On March 23, benefiting from the sharp rise in coking - coal prices, the prices of ferroalloys continued to rise. The main manganese - silicon contract (SM605) closed up 2.44% at 6556 yuan/ton. In the spot market, the quoted price of 6517 manganese - silicon in Tianjin was 6300 yuan/ton, equivalent to 6490 yuan on the futures - delivery basis, with a discount of 66 yuan/ton to the futures price. The main silicon - iron contract (SF605) closed up 3.17% at 6120 yuan/ton. In the spot market, the quoted price of 72 silicon - iron in Tianjin was 6100 yuan/ton, with a discount of 20 yuan/ton to the futures price [8] 策略观点 - The market has shifted from early inflation and supply - side disturbance logic to stagflation and recession pricing and trading. The equity and commodity markets have experienced significant corrections. In the medium - to - long term, the trend of commodity bulls is not over, but in the short term, attention should be paid to price - callback pressure and high - volatility attributes. The black sector is under relatively low pressure. The supply - demand pattern of manganese - silicon is still not ideal, but most of these factors have been priced in. The fundamentals of silicon - iron are good. The future market trends of manganese - silicon and silicon - iron are affected by the overall sentiment of the black sector, cost - push factors from manganese ore in the manganese - silicon segment, and supply - contraction (or contraction expectation) factors in the silicon - iron segment. Attention should be paid to the situation of manganese - ore exports and the progress of the "dual - carbon" policy [9][10] Coking Coal and Coke 行情资讯 - On March 23, due to the high - level crude - oil price, the "energy substitution" sentiment for coal was released intensively. Coking - coal prices soared in the night session on Friday and almost all contracts hit the daily limit on Monday. Coke prices followed coking - coal prices up. The main coking - coal contract (JM2605) closed up 10.12% at 1289.5 yuan/ton. In the spot market, the quoted price of low - sulfur main - coking coal in Shanxi was 1464.9 yuan/ton, equivalent to 1272.5 yuan/ton on the futures - delivery basis, with a discount of 17.0 yuan/ton to the futures price; the quoted price of medium - sulfur main - coking coal in Shanxi was 1340 yuan/ton, equivalent to 1324.5 yuan/ton on the futures - delivery basis, with a premium of 35.0 yuan/ton to the futures price; the quoted price of Mongolian 5 clean coal in Wubulangjinquan Industrial Park was 1240 yuan/ton, equivalent to 1215 yuan/ton on the futures - delivery basis, with a discount of 74.5 yuan/ton to the futures price. The main coke contract (J2605) closed up 6.12% at 1847.0 yuan/ton. In the spot market, the quoted price of quasi - first - grade wet - quenched coke at Rizhao Port was 1470 yuan/ton, equivalent to 1725.5 yuan/ton on the futures - delivery basis, with a discount of 121.5 yuan/ton to the futures price; the quoted price of quasi - first - grade dry - quenched coke in Lvliang was 1495 yuan/ton, equivalent to 1710.5 yuan/ton on the futures - delivery basis, with a discount of 136.5 yuan/ton to the futures price [12] 策略观点 - The market has shifted to stagflation and recession trading. In the short term, attention should be paid to price - callback pressure and high - volatility attributes. The black sector is under relatively low pressure. The energy attribute of coking coal may be further stimulated, but the high volatility of oil and gas will also lead to high volatility in coking - coal prices. In terms of the supply - demand structure, coking coal and coke are in a relatively loose state in the short term. The positive aspect is that downstream enterprises have carried out some pre - stocking, and the destocking of steel inventory has temporarily alleviated market concerns. Overall, the fundamental factors supporting a sharp price rebound are insufficient in the short term. The current price of coking coal around 1300 yuan/ton is not low in valuation, and there is a risk of "bad warehouse receipts" in non - main contracts. In the short term, short - term long - position operations or temporary waiting are recommended. In the medium - to - long term, coking - coal prices are still optimistic, especially from June to October [15] Industrial Silicon and Polysilicon 行情资讯 - Industrial silicon: The closing price of the main industrial - silicon futures contract (SI2605) was 8575 yuan/ton, with a change of +1.42% (+120). The weighted - contract open - interest change was - 15,780 lots, changing to 358,233 lots. In the spot market, the quoted price of non - oxygen - blown 553 industrial silicon in East China was 9150 yuan/ton, up 50 yuan/ton month - on - month, with a basis of 575 yuan/ton for the main contract; the quoted price of 421 was 9600 yuan/ton, unchanged month - on - month, with a basis of 225 yuan/ton for the main contract after conversion to the futures - delivery price [17] - Polysilicon: The closing price of the main polysilicon futures contract (PS2605) was 35,435 yuan/ton, with a change of - 6.17% (- 2330). The weighted - contract open - interest change was - 1555 lots, changing to 49,700 lots. In the spot market, the average price of N - type granular silicon according to the SMM standard was 41.5 yuan/kg, down 2.5 yuan/kg month - on - month; the average price of N - type dense material was 41.5 yuan/kg, down 0.5 yuan/kg month - on - month; the average price of N - type re - feed material was 43.25 yuan/kg, down 0.25 yuan/kg month - on - month. The basis of the main contract was 7815 yuan/ton [19] 策略观点 - Industrial silicon: The price of industrial silicon rose first and then fell, oscillating. On the supply side, the output of industrial silicon continued to rise slightly, and the operating rates in some regions increased. On the demand side, the demand improvement was weak, and the price drive was insufficient. Due to the high energy prices and the relatively strong coal - coke prices, the cost can provide strong support for industrial - silicon prices in the short term, and the price is expected to oscillate [18] - Polysilicon: The fundamentals of polysilicon are weak, and the price has further declined. The inventory in the silicon - wafer segment is still at a high level, the downstream demand is weak, and the negative feedback to the upstream silicon - material segment continues. The inventory of polysilicon factories continues to rise, and the downstream restocking is only for rigid demand. The trading atmosphere is weak. The trading center of the market has declined again. The open interest and liquidity of polysilicon futures are still at a relatively low level since listing. The current weak downstream feedback and high silicon - material inventory pattern remain unchanged, and there is a negative - feedback sentiment between the futures and spot prices. The support for the futures price continues to decline. Considering the Middle - East conflict and the decline of the futures price below 40,000 yuan, the price is expected to oscillate and find a bottom [20][22] Glass and Soda - Ash 行情资讯 - Glass: At 15:00 on Monday, the main glass contract closed at 1082 yuan/ton, up 2.66% (+28). The quoted price of large - size glass in North China was 1070 yuan, unchanged from the previous day; that in Central China was 1090 yuan, unchanged from the previous day. On March 19, the weekly inventory of float - glass sample enterprises was 74.436 million cases, down 1.413 million cases (- 1.86%) from the previous week. In terms of open interest, the top 20 long - position holders reduced their long positions by 3485 lots, and the top 20 short - position holders reduced their short positions by 36,819 lots [24] - Soda - ash: At 15:00 on Monday, the main soda - ash contract closed at 1256 yuan/ton, up 4.49% (+54). The quoted price of heavy soda - ash in Shahe was 1246 yuan, up 54 yuan from the previous day. On March 19, the weekly inventory of soda - ash sample enterprises was 1.8538 million tons, down 77,900 tons (- 1.86%) from the previous week, including 890,700 tons of heavy - soda - ash inventory, down 27,400 tons, and 963,100 tons of light - soda - ash inventory, down 50,500 tons. In terms of open interest, the top 20 long - position holders reduced their long positions by 35,840 lots, and the top 20 short - position holders reduced their short positions by 34,576 lots [26] 策略观点 - Glass: On the spot level, the slight contraction of supply supports market sentiment, but the high - inventory pressure and weak demand still restrict the upward space of prices. The terminal recovery is weaker than expected, and the weak real - estate completion data further suppresses the long - term demand expectation. The transmission path from policy benefits to actual demand has not been realized. It is expected that the float - glass market will maintain a wide - range oscillation pattern in the short term. Attention should be paid to the release rhythm of actual demand during the "Golden March and Silver April" period and the inventory changes in major production areas. The reference range for the main contract is 1030 - 1100 yuan/ton [25] - Soda - ash: On the spot level, the supply - side disturbance factors of soda - ash are limited, and the overall price maintains a high - level oscillation pattern. The cold - repair scale of downstream float - glass has expanded, and the rigid demand for heavy soda - ash is under pressure; the demand for light soda - ash also lacks obvious improvement, and downstream enterprises mostly maintain rigid - demand procurement, with insufficient willingness to actively restock, and the market lacks substantial buying support. The current supply - demand pattern of soda - ash remains loose. Although the inventory shows a slight decline, the destocking rhythm has not been effectively transmitted to the price. It is expected that the soda - ash price will continue to oscillate widely at a low level. The reference range for the main contract is 1200 - 1260 yuan/ton [27]
