Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Core Viewpoints of the Report - The silicon price has fallen and adjusted due to the cooling of sentiment and the hedging pressure above the disk, but the bullish sentiment keeps fluctuating. It is expected that the silicon price will consolidate at a high level in the short term, and operations need to be cautious. [1] - Since the end of June, driven by the supply - side reform expectation and spot price increase, the polysilicon futures price has continuously reached new highs since its listing. Recently, although the sentiment has faded, it still fluctuates, and the price maintains a high - level consolidation with large disk fluctuations. Operations need to be cautious. [1] Summary by Related Catalogs Industrial Silicon Price Information - The average price of non - oxygenated 553 (East China) remained flat at 9,100 yuan/ton, and the average price of 421 (East China) industrial silicon remained flat at 9,700 yuan/ton. The closing price of the futures main contract fell 0.52% to 8,655 yuan/ton. [1] Supply and Demand - On the supply side, as the silicon price continues to rise, some previously shut - down silicon plants in Xinjiang have resumed production. The southwest production area has entered the wet season, with lower power costs and a steady increase in enterprise operations. It is expected that some silicon furnaces will restart in August, and the supply will increase steadily. [1] - On the demand side, polysilicon enterprises maintain a production - cut situation, and some silicon material plants plan to resume production in July, which will bring some demand increments. An organic silicon manufacturer stopped production for rectification due to an accident, resulting in a temporary tightening of supply. With the support of the silicon price on the cost side, the organic silicon price has continued to rise. Silicon - aluminum alloy enterprises purchase on demand, and the downstream's willingness to stock up at low levels is insufficient. [1] Investment Strategy - Considering the cooling of sentiment and the hedging pressure above the disk, the silicon price has fallen and adjusted, but the bullish sentiment keeps fluctuating. It is expected that the silicon price will consolidate at a high level in the short term, and operations need to be cautious. Continuously monitor the resumption of production of silicon enterprises. [1] Polysilicon Price Information - The price of N - type dense material remained flat at 46 yuan/kg, N - type re - feed material remained flat at 47 yuan/kg, N - type mixed material remained flat at 45 yuan/kg, and N - type granular silicon remained flat at 44.5 yuan/kg. The closing price of the futures main contract fell 2.41% to 50,110 yuan/ton. [1] Supply and Demand - On the supply side, polysilicon enterprises maintain a production - cut situation, and some silicon material plants may have new production capacity put into operation. After offsetting the increase and decrease, the output is expected to increase slightly, and the output in July is expected to approach 110,000 tons. [1] - On the demand side, the photovoltaic market is generally weak, with rising inventories of silicon wafers and silicon materials. Recently, due to the expected increase in the polysilicon price, the downstream silicon wafer price has followed the increase, and the trading atmosphere has improved. However, the terminal market is still weak due to the large over - consumption of demand by the rush to install in the first half of the year. [1] Investment Strategy - Since the end of June, driven by the supply - side reform expectation and spot price increase, the polysilicon futures price has continuously reached new highs since its listing. Recently, although the sentiment has faded, it still fluctuates, and the price maintains a high - level consolidation with large disk fluctuations. Operations need to be cautious. Continuously monitor the evolution of macro - sentiment and the registration of warehouse receipts. [1] Other Information - On August 7, the total social inventory of industrial silicon in major regions was 547,000 tons, a week - on - week increase of 7,000 tons. Among them, the inventory in ordinary social warehouses was 118,000 tons, a week - on - week decrease of 1,000 tons, and the inventory in social delivery warehouses was 429,000 tons (including unregistered warehouse receipts and spot parts), a week - on - week increase of 8,000 tons. [1] - The Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources of Indonesia announced a plan to build solar power stations for "Kopdes Merah Putih" to cover rural and remote areas, aiming to achieve a solar installed capacity of up to 100 GW. [1] - The National New Energy Consumption Monitoring and Early - Warning Center released the new energy grid - connected consumption situation in June 2025. The new energy utilization rate is calculated considering only the power limitation due to system reasons. [1]
