Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - The short - term fundamentals of the industrial silicon industry have slightly improved, with supply - side reductions by large northwestern plants and lower southwestern start - up rates compared to previous years, and a certain increase in consumption. However, the overall industry inventory level is high, there is hedging pressure after the rebound, and there is a possibility of复产 by short - term shutdown enterprises and during the southwestern wet season, while the terminal consumption has not improved, so the fundamentals are weak. The rise in the industrial silicon futures market is mainly affected by the sharp rise in polysilicon, and whether there will be policy support in the industrial silicon industry needs to be closely monitored. Short - term, it is recommended to wait and see, and short positions need to pay attention to stop - loss or use options for protection [3]. - The polysilicon market has been affected by policy promotion and capital sentiment recently, with both futures and spot quotes rising sharply. Although the current spot has no transactions, actual transactions may occur in the near future. There are many policy disturbances such as anti - involution, storage and mergers, and self - disciplined production cuts in the photovoltaic industry. In the medium - to - long - term, it is suitable to build long positions in polysilicon at low prices [7].
