Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core Viewpoints of the Report - In the short - to medium - term, due to the repeated policy expectations, the trends of new energy metals are diverging, with silicon materials experiencing a sharp decline. Long - term supply contraction of silicon is expected, and the long - term supply - demand situation of lithium carbonate needs to be re - evaluated [2] - The market sentiment for industrial silicon has cooled, and the silicon price has dropped significantly. The price of polysilicon continues to be highly volatile due to repeated policy expectations. The market sentiment for lithium carbonate has weakened, and the lithium price is oscillating at a high level [2][3] Summary by Relevant Catalogs 1.行情观点 Industrial Silicon - **Viewpoint**: Market sentiment has cooled, and the silicon price has dropped significantly, with an expected oscillating trend [3][6] - **Information Analysis**: As of January 8, the spot prices of industrial silicon were stable. The domestic inventory decreased by 1.3% month - on - month, with market inventory down 0.5% and factory inventory down 1.8%. In December 2025, domestic monthly production was 39.7 tons, down 1.2% month - on - month but up 19.8% year - on - year. From January to December, the cumulative production was 426.8 tons, down 12.9% year - on - year. In November, exports were 54,888 tons, up 21.8% month - on - month and 3.7% year - on - year.

In November, new photovoltaic installations were 22GW, up 75% month - on - month but down 12% year - on - year. From January to November, cumulative new installations were 275GW, up 33% year - on - year. Shaanxi plans to implement a differential electricity price policy for industrial silicon enterprises from July 1, 2026 [6] - **Main Logic**: On the supply side, some northern silicon plants may stop production for maintenance in January, and the supply pressure from the northwest may ease slightly. The southwest is in a dry season, and the operating rates in Yunnan and Sichuan have dropped. On the demand side, the demand from polysilicon, organic silicon, and aluminum alloy industries is weak. The industry inventory has slightly increased, and the overall inventory is under pressure. The supply pressure has been partially relieved, but the demand has also weakened, and the fundamentals remain weak [6] Polysilicon - **Viewpoint**: Policy expectations are repeated, and the polysilicon price continues to be highly volatile, with an expected oscillating trend [3][6] - **Information Analysis**: In the week of January 8, the average transaction price of N - type re - feedstock was 59,200 yuan/ton, up 9.83% week - on - week.

A polysilicon platform company was registered, and the Guangzhou Futures Exchange added new registered brands [6][7][8] - **Main Logic**: The concern about polysilicon antitrust has increased, and the price has dropped significantly. In the dry season, the production in the southwest has decreased. The photovoltaic installation growth rate was high in the first five months but declined in the second half of the year, and the demand for polysilicon has gradually weakened since November. The demand has declined marginally, and the weak fundamentals remain unchanged, so the price may be under pressure [10] Lithium Carbonate - **Viewpoint**: Market sentiment has weakened, and the lithium price is oscillating at a high level, with an expected slightly strong oscillating trend [3][6] - **Information Analysis**: On January 8, the closing price of the lithium carbonate main contract increased by 1.9% to 145,000 yuan/ton, and the total open interest increased by 25,949 to 989,870.

The weekly production increased by 115 tons to 22,535 tons, and the inventory increased by 337 tons to 109,972 tons, with different changes in different links [11] - **Main Logic**: The current demand for lithium carbonate has weakened marginally, but the long - term demand expectation is strong, and the supply remains high.
