Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided. Core View of the Report - During the Spring Festival in 2026, the national construction steel market was generally closed, with the overall price remaining the same as before the festival and regional performance showing differentiation. This year, manufacturers are cautiously optimistic, but there are differences in expectations for the post - holiday market. After the festival, steel prices are expected to have a short "good start" supported by the inertia of steel mills' price increases, low inventory, and cost. However, the recovery rhythm of demand, the resumption progress of steel mills, and inventory digestion will be key variables. Subsequently, the market will likely enter a shock adjustment stage, and the sustainability of the market depends on the actual release intensity of demand, with a short - term shock - upward trend [2]. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Market Review and Outlook - During the 2026 Spring Festival, the national construction steel market was closed, with prices unchanged from pre - holiday levels and regional differences. Manufacturers have a cautious and optimistic attitude, but there are differences in post - holiday market expectations. After the holiday, steel prices may have a short "good start" due to factors such as steel mills' price increases, low inventory, and cost support. Key variables include demand recovery, steel mill resumption, and inventory digestion. The market will likely enter a shock adjustment stage, and its sustainability depends on actual demand release, with a short - term shock - upward trend [2]. Fundamental Data Weekly Changes | Steel Type | Unit | Latest Week | Previous Period | Weekly Change | Weekly Change Rate | Frequency | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Daily average hot metal production of steel mills | 10,000 tons | 230.49 | 228.58 | 1.91 | 0.84% | Weekly | | Rebar mill inventory | 10,000 tons | 163.59 | 153.65 | 9.94 | 6.47% | Weekly | | Rebar social inventory | 10,000 tons | 423.23 | 365.92 | 57.31 | 15.66% | Weekly | | Hot - rolled coil mill inventory | 10,000 tons | 79.85 | 78.75 | 1.1 | 1.40% | Weekly | | Hot - rolled coil social inventory | 10,000 tons | 290.92 | 280.45 | 10.47 | 3.73% | Weekly | [4] Futures Market Review - The report presents figures such as the 5 - day intraday chart of rebar and hot - rolled coil main contracts, rebar 05 - 10 spread, hot - rolled coil 05 - 10 spread, on - disk coil - rebar spread, and speculation degree (trading volume/position) [5][6][9]. Spot Market Review - The report shows figures such as the rebar price in East China (Shanghai), the hot - rolled 4.75 spot price (Shanghai), rebar basis, and hot - rolled coil basis [14][15].

Group 3: Seasonal and Economic Considerations - The market is entering a seasonal slowdown due to the upcoming Spring Festival, with logistics and transportation gradually halting, and downstream soldering companies entering a holiday state [5]. - Post-holiday, attention will be on the resumption of production by downstream enterprises and the speed of inventory digestion under low hidden inventory conditions [5].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - Pre - holiday cooling does not change the upward trend of the bottom. Pre - holiday, the precious metal decline led to a cooling of sentiment in the non - ferrous sector, and funds left the market to avoid high - level risks. Although the non - ferrous metals generally declined, there were signs of stabilization on Friday. In the nickel market, there are supply uncertainties in the far - month, and the financial attribute of the non - ferrous sector has increased. For trading, it is recommended to reduce positions before the holiday, and consider light - position long positions after the price stabilizes [6]. - The cost support of nickel ore for subsequent links is emerging, especially for the NPI price. The cost of stainless steel remains firm, but the immediate cost - profit of steel mills is shrinking. After the holiday, if the nickel price stabilizes and inventory reduction is normal, there is still value in going long at a low price [9]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Chapter 1: Spread Tracking and Inventory 3.1.1 Nickel - Global Nickel Inventory at a High Level - Global visible nickel inventory reached 360,000 tons, an increase of 2,080 tons this week.

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. Core Views - The core contradictions affecting the glass and soda ash markets include potential glass production line cold repairs before the Spring Festival, cost - based pricing for soda ash with new capacity on the way, and high inventories in the glass mid - stream and an ongoing capacity expansion cycle for soda ash [1]. - The glass market has a weak spot price due to high mid - stream inventories and the off - season. The soda ash market is affected by new capacity expectations and high inventories, but its upstream inventory reduction is better than expected [2]. - Glass and soda ash markets are in a state of oscillation without clear trends, and observation is recommended [7]. Summary by Directory 1. Core Contradictions and Strategy Suggestions 1.1 Core Contradictions - Before the Spring Festival, some glass production line cold repairs are yet to be realized, which impacts long - term pricing and market expectations. Policy - related supply disturbances cannot be excluded [1]. - Soda ash is mainly priced by cost. Despite occasional supply cuts, new capacity is pending, and production remains at a medium - high level. Its valuation lacks upward potential without a trend of production reduction, and its demand is expected to decline with potential glass cold repairs [1]. - In reality, the high mid - stream glass inventories need to be digested. For soda ash, the capacity expansion cycle continues, and an oversupply situation is expected [1]. 1.2 Trading - Type Strategy Suggestions - Glass spot is weak, with cold repair expectations and high mid - stream inventories. Cost and supply expectations affect long - term pricing. The 05 contract is more about expectations. The glass and soda ash markets lack clear trends and are oscillating, so observation is recommended [7]. 1.3 Basic Data Overview - Glass spot prices: Some prices decreased slightly on January 5, 2026. For example, the average price of沙河交割品 dropped by 1 yuan compared to the previous day [11]. - Glass futures prices: The 05, 09, and 01 contracts all decreased on January 5, 2026, with the 09 contract having the largest decline rate of - 0.67% [11]. - Soda ash spot prices: Most regional prices remained stable on January 5, 2026, except for a 20 - yuan decrease in the light soda ash price in the central China region [13]. - Soda ash futures prices: The 05, 09, and 01 contracts all decreased on January 5, 2026, with the 05 contract having the largest decline rate of - 2.65% [14]. 2. This Week's Important Information and Next Week's Attention Events 2.1 This Week's Important Information - Positive information: Some glass production line cold repairs are expected to be realized before the Spring Festival, and the National Development and Reform Commission will control high - energy - consuming and high - emission projects starting from 2026, which may lead to supply - side policy expectations [14]. - Negative information: New soda ash capacity is expected to increase, and the renewed glass cold repair expectations will affect soda ash demand [15]. 2.2 Next Week's Important Events to Watch - Whether there are further clear instructions on industrial policies. - Glass production and sales, spot prices, and soda ash spot transaction situations [19]. 3. Disk Interpretation - Unilateral trends and capital movements: The glass 05 contract has unclear expectations, with weak supply and demand and no clear signals. Near - term spot pressure is high, and mid - stream inventories are high. Long - term supply reduction and cost increase are expected, but demand is unclear [20]. - Basis and spread structure: The glass 5 - 9 spread oscillates without a clear direction. The soda ash market maintains a C - structure, and its long - term situation may worsen with new capacity [25][26]. 4. Valuation and Profit Analysis 4.1 Industry Chain Up - and Downstream Profit Tracking - Glass: Natural gas production lines are in the red, while petroleum coke and coal - gas production lines have small profits [42]. - Soda ash: The cash cost of the ammonia - soda process in Shandong is around 1210 yuan/ton, and that of the combined - soda process in central China is around 1105 yuan/ton [43]. 4.2 Import and Export Analysis - Glass: The monthly average net export of float glass is 6 - 7 tons, accounting for 1.4% of the apparent demand, with limited impact [50]. - Soda ash: The monthly average net export of soda ash is 18 - 21 tons, meeting expectations and accounting for 5.8% of the apparent demand, with a significantly higher proportion than last year. The November export was close to 19 tons, maintaining high export expectations [50]. 5. Supply, Demand, and Inventory 5.1 Supply - Side and Projections - Glass supply: The daily melting volume of glass has dropped to around 15.1 - 15.2 tons. Some cold repair production lines are yet to be realized before the Spring Festival, and the daily melting volume is expected to decline further [56]. - Soda ash supply: The current daily production of soda ash fluctuates slightly around 10.5 - 10.7 tons. The first phase (100 tons) of the Alxa Phase II project has started trial production, and the 70 - ton new capacity of Yingcheng Xindu is pending [59]. 5.2 Demand - Side and Projections - Glass demand: Mid - stream glass inventories remain high, and spot pressure exists. As of the end of December, glass deep - processing orders and raw material inventories decreased both month - on - month and year - on - year. The cumulative apparent demand for glass in 2025 is estimated to decline by 7.5%. Terminal demand is weak, and downstream restocking during the off - season is limited [62]. - Soda ash demand: The combined daily melting volume of float glass and photovoltaic glass is 24 tons, showing a slight decline. The daily demand for soda ash is about 4.8 tons. With potential glass cold repairs, soda ash demand is expected to decline. Photovoltaic glass inventories are accumulating, and its cold repair expectations should be monitored. The cumulative apparent demand for soda ash in 2025 is estimated to decline by 0.2% [73][74]. 5.3 Inventory Analysis - Glass: According to Longzhong data, the total glass factory inventory is 56.866 million weight - cases, a month - on - month decrease of 1.757 million weight - cases (- 3.00%) and a year - on - year increase of 28.96%.
