The market is evaluating the Middle - East war risks and liquidity constraints. The spot price is 92,820 yuan. The price decline led to intensive downstream point - pricing. The strong support for copper price is at 91,000 yuan, and the MA40 weekly moving average also needs attention [2]. Aluminum, Alumina, and Aluminum Alloy - Shanghai aluminum futures fluctuated. The spot discounts in East, Central, and South China were 150 yuan, 180 yuan, and 175 yuan respectively. The inventory decreased slightly. Aluminum may remain weak until the war eases. Cast aluminum alloy's spread with Shanghai aluminum narrowed. Domestic alumina's over - supply improved slightly but may face more supply in the future and may oscillate strongly waiting for Guinea's policy [3]. Zinc - Low zinc prices stimulated downstream replenishment. The SMM zinc social inventory decreased by 21,000 tons to 255,200 tons. The price may test the smelter's cost line. It is expected to stop falling at 22,000 - 22,500 yuan/ton, and further decline needs a significant increase in TC [4]. Aluminum (Second Part) - Low aluminum prices increased downstream replenishment. The SMM aluminum social inventory decreased by 14,900 tons to 63,100 tons. The domestic aluminum market is in a situation of both supply and demand increase. The cost support is prominent, and the key support is at 16,200 yuan/ton [6]. Nickel and Stainless Steel - Shanghai nickel futures weakened. The market is worried about the Fed's liquidity control. The upstream price increase supported the mid - stream. The market is mainly dominated by policy sentiment, and it is expected to be in a weak oscillation waiting for Indonesia's policy changes [7]. Tin - Shanghai tin futures decreased with reduced positions. The SMM spot tin price dropped to 341,450 yuan. The social inventory decreased by 2,380 tons to 10,977 tons.

Market Analysis PVC - Export situation: Export tax rebates for PVC have been cancelled since April 1st, and upstream export orders were concentrated before the festival until March. India has launched an anti - subsidy tax investigation, leading to a weak long - term export expectation. However, due to continuous geopolitical conflicts, overseas cracking units have reduced their loads, the raw material supply of ethylene - based PVC has tightened, and some overseas units have reduced their loads, improving the export expectation [3]. - Supply situation: Some domestic ethylene - based enterprises also face raw material supply limitations, and the expectation of unit load reduction has increased. Yantai Wanhua has newly entered maintenance this week [3]. - Demand situation: Downstream operation is gradually recovering, but the social inventory continues to accumulate and is at a high level compared to the same period. PVC warehouse receipts also remain at a high level in the same period, and the spot supply pressure caused by the cancellation of warehouse receipts in March has increased [3]. - Overall situation: The supply - demand fundamental of PVC is weak, but geopolitical conflicts support the expectation of raw material shrinkage, the raw material cost of ethylene - based PVC has increased, and the cost - end pressure is still being transmitted. Coupled with the recovery of downstream operation, the increasing expectation of spring maintenance, and the positive macro - expectation of the Two Sessions, the market sentiment has improved [3]. Caustic Soda - Export situation: Due to continuous geopolitical conflicts, overseas chlor - alkali units are expected to reduce their loads due to cost increases, driving an increase in export inquiries for domestic chlor - alkali products. The price of 50% caustic soda has risen rapidly, and the price of 32% caustic soda has followed up slightly [3]. - Supply situation: The operation rate has increased slightly and is at a high level compared to the same period. The planned maintenance enterprises in March may change [3]. - Demand situation: The non - aluminum industries' operation has recovered after the festival, bringing an increase in rigid demand procurement. However, some alumina plants have carried out maintenance, leading to a slight decrease in operation. The anti - involution in the alumina industry has dragged down the long - term caustic soda demand expectation, and the commissioning progress of alumina in Guangxi has been postponed. Caustic soda inventory has accumulated in Shandong and Jiangsu [3]. - Cost situation: The operation of the liquid chlorine downstream has recovered, the liquid chlorine price has increased, and the cost support for caustic soda has weakened [3]. - Overall situation: The supply - demand situation of caustic soda has improved slightly compared to the previous period. Attention should be paid to the actual execution of export orders, the conversion of some 32% caustic soda to 50% caustic soda in Shandong, and the price trend of 32% caustic soda. The futures price has a large premium over the spot price and the volatility has increased [3].

Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core Viewpoints - After the Spring Festival, production and sales have not fully recovered. The demand recovery rhythm after the festival and the rush-to-export effect brought by export tax rebates will be the key variables affecting the short - term market trend. If downstream enterprises' production resumes and demand is released, the procurement demand for polysilicon is expected to pick up, inventory pressure will be relieved, and the futures market may stabilize and rebound. Otherwise, polysilicon prices will remain under pressure. Attention should be paid to the support at the 45,000 level [3] Summary by Directory 1. Spot and Futures Price Trends - **Spot**: After the Spring Festival, trading was still weak, and polysilicon spot quotes were lowered. The price of N - type re - feedstock decreased by 2.35% to 52 yuan/kg, while the price of N - type granular silicon remained unchanged at 50 yuan/kg [12] - **Futures**: The futures contract prices trended weakly. On Friday, the futures price fell to around 455,000 yuan/ton and then rebounded, closing at 46,495 yuan/ton. The main contract price and the price differences between different contracts are presented in the report [7] 2. Supply and Demand Analysis - **Supply**: In January 2026, the domestic polysilicon production decreased to about 10.08 - 10.2 million tons. In February, production will be further reduced to less than 8.5 million tons. In March, production is expected to increase due to more production days and the resumption of some enterprises [28] - **Demand**: In February, demand continued to decline. In January, the production of battery cells decreased by about 10% to 41.44GW, and the February production plan dropped to 36.7GW. The January production of components reached 35GW, and the February production plan was about 30GW. The weekly production of silicon wafers increased slightly by 1.3GW to 11.35GW, and the inventory rose by 1GW to 31.06GW. The domestic installed capacity in December 2025 was about 20GW, and the January installation was sluggish, but exports are expected to recover in the first quarter [43][48][52] 3. Cost - Profit Analysis - The increase in polysilicon prices is beneficial for profit repair in the photovoltaic products, especially in polysilicon. However, due to the significant decline in downstream demand and no obvious signs of recovery in the first quarter, there is no expectation of continuous profit growth. Daquan Energy's 2025 revenue was 4.839 billion yuan, a year - on - year decrease of 34.71%. The net loss attributable to shareholders was 1.129 billion yuan, a narrowing of over 50% year - on - year. The estimated production in the first quarter of 2026 is 35,000 - 40,000 tons, and the annual production is expected to be 140,000 - 170,000 tons [68] 4. Import and Export - In December 2025, the polysilicon import volume was 0.18 million tons, a month - on - month increase of 77% and a year - on - year decrease of 43%.
