1. Report Industry Investment Ratings No relevant information provided in the reports. 2. Core Views of the Reports Glass and Soda Ash - Yesterday, the soda ash futures market sentiment weakened, with the 09 contract dropping about 30 points. Although the overall market sentiment had improved earlier, the supply - demand pattern of soda ash remains in surplus, with continuous inventory accumulation. It is recommended to watch for opportunities to short on rebounds [1]. - The glass futures market sentiment declined yesterday, while the spot market remained strong. Currently, it is the off - season, and the industry needs capacity clearance. It is advisable to wait and see for now [1]. Logs - Yesterday, the log futures market fluctuated slightly stronger. The market is in a situation of weak supply and demand due to the off - season for demand and seasonal reduction in supply from New Zealand. The 09 contract is expected to fluctuate weakly, and attention should be paid to market sentiment and policy expectations [2]. Industrial Silicon - The spot price of industrial silicon increased by 150 - 200 yuan/ton, and the futures price rose by 90 yuan/ton. The supply is expected to increase. In the short - term, the price will fluctuate strongly, but attention should be paid to the risk of price decline due to the increase in warehouse receipts [3]. Polysilicon - The polysilicon spot price stabilized, and the futures price increased. There is still room for the futures price to catch up with the spot price. The market has a wait - and - see attitude, and there are both positive and negative factors. Attention should be paid to the risk of price decline [4]. Natural Rubber - The natural rubber price rebounded due to macro - sentiment, but the fundamental situation is still weak. It is recommended to short at the price range of 14,000 - 14,500 yuan/ton, and pay attention to raw material supply and US tariff changes [5]. 3.

Report Summary 1. Investment Rating No investment rating information is provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoint On July 15, industrial silicon and polysilicon both showed a volatile and upward - trending pattern. The main contract of industrial silicon 2509 closed at 8785 yuan/ton, with an intraday increase of 2.81%, and its position decreased by 6237 lots to 4397000 lots. The reference price of Baichuan industrial silicon spot was 9111 yuan/ton, an increase of 173 yuan/ton from the previous trading day. The price of the lowest deliverable 421 rose to 8500 yuan/ton, and the spot shifted from premium to discount of 60 yuan/ton. The main contract of polysilicon 2508 closed at 42470 yuan/ton, with an intraday increase of 2.78%, and its position decreased by 6237 lots to 69821 lots. The price of N - type recycled polysilicon material rose to 44550 yuan/ton, and the price of the lowest deliverable silicon material rose to 43500 yuan/ton.

However, there were many disagreements in the market, with limited overall transmission and high difficulty in continuous upward surges. It was advisable to continue short - selling at the upper limit of the range. Guided by policies, the confidence of the photovoltaic industry chain in price support increased, but the terminal demand had not improved, and market transactions were almost at a standstill. Futures followed the spot price and were more driven by speculative demand. In the short term, there were a lot of true and false news in the market, with increased volatility of the disk and higher risks of chasing up [2]. 3.

The fertilizer subsidy policy in the Ili region of the Northwest remains stable. Large - scale production enterprises have no news of production cuts or shutdowns. The production cost in the Southwest region has decreased. The resumption of production in Baoshan is positive, but the scale in Nujiang and Dehong is lower than expected. Sichuan manufacturers mainly focus on ensuring supply and relying on self - owned power plants, with no significant increase in the overall operating rate [2]. 3.8 Demand - side Analysis - The downstream of industrial silicon is mainly concentrated in organic silicon, polysilicon, and aluminum alloy.
