Sou Hu Cai Jing· 2025-08-03 16:50
Core Viewpoint - The domestic soda ash market is experiencing a weak performance, with prices showing little change across various regions, and a cautious sentiment prevailing among downstream buyers [2][3]. Price Summary - As of August 1, the price range for light soda ash in North China is 1270-1320 CNY/ton, while heavy soda ash is priced at 1270-1370 CNY/ton. In South China, light soda ash is priced at 1390-1470 CNY/ton, and heavy soda ash at 1360-1430 CNY/ton [2]. - The light soda ash price index on August 1 is 1275.71, down 4.29 from the previous working day, a decrease of 0.33%. The heavy soda ash price index is 1294.29, down 8.57, a decrease of 0.66% [3]. Supply and Demand Analysis - The supply side remains stable, with Inner Mongolia Salt Industry planning maintenance on August 5, while Shilian Chemical and Huainan Debang plan to resume production in early August [2]. - Demand continues to be weak, with downstream companies showing reduced purchasing willingness and adopting conservative procurement strategies [2]. Futures Market Dynamics - On August 1, the main soda ash futures contract SA2509 opened at 1248 CNY/ton and closed at 1256 CNY/ton, with an intraday decline of 1.02%. The total open interest is 921,926 contracts, down by 52,098 contracts [5]. - The futures market is under pressure due to overall weak sentiment in the chemical sector, despite some support from inventory reduction [5]. Market Outlook - In the coming week, as previously maintained facilities gradually resume operations, supply is expected to increase. However, the cautious purchasing attitude from downstream buyers may limit acceptance of high-priced products [6]. - The market sentiment is shifting from a strong expectation at the beginning of the week to a more cautious outlook, with prices likely to remain volatile and subject to flexible adjustments [6].

玻璃:预期面临兑现,预计偏弱运行
Chang Jiang Qi Huo· 2025-07-28 02:26
Report Industry Investment Rating - The investment strategy for the glass industry is expected to be weakly operating [2][3] Core Viewpoints - Last week, the glass futures rose significantly, forming a resonance with raw materials such as coal and soda ash. Driven by strong macro - sentiment and policy documents, the market was overbought. The supply decreased slightly with a cold - repair of one production line and a decline in daily melting volume. Both main production and sales areas saw inventory drops. The market demand improved, but the downstream terminal's willingness to stockpile remained low. The soda ash market also had more supply than actual demand, with limited upside potential. As the end - of - month meeting expectations are to be realized, the 08 - contract positions are higher than usual, and spot goods in the hands of spot - futures traders need to be sold. It is expected that the market will correct from its high level, and participation is not recommended without physical goods [2] Summary by Directory 01 Investment Strategy - Main Logic: The glass futures rose last week, with supply decreasing slightly and inventory dropping in major areas. Market demand improved, but downstream terminal stocking willingness was low. Soda ash supply exceeded demand. End - of - month meeting expectations are to be realized, and it's expected that the market will correct from its high [2] - Operating Strategy: Weakly operating [2][3] 02 and 03 Market Review - Spot Price: As of July 25, the 5mm float glass market price was 1,250 yuan/ton in North China (+90), 1,190 yuan/ton in Central China (+90), and 1,280 yuan/ton in East China (+40).
