Report Industry Investment Ratings - Glass: Weak and volatile [2] - Soda Ash: Volatile [2] - Silicomanganese: Volatile [4] - Ferrosilicon: Volatile [4] Core Views - Market sentiment is weak, and steel prices are fluctuating. The trading sentiment of glass and soda ash has been boosted, leading to a rebound in their futures markets. The alloy futures of ferrosilicon and silicomanganese have also rebounded, while the spot prices have made minor adjustments [1][3] - The supply - demand contradiction in the glass market is still significant, with high inventory pressure. The supply - demand situation of soda ash has eased, but there are concerns about new production projects and glass cold - repair. The fundamentals of silicomanganese are poor with high inventory, and the fundamentals of ferrosilicon have improved compared to before [1][3] Summary by Related Catalogs Glass and Soda Ash - **Market Analysis**: Glass futures fluctuated upwards with active trading, and downstream buyers mainly made rigid - demand purchases. Soda ash futures also rose, with an increase in spot prices but poor futures - spot trading and mainly rigid - demand purchases [1] - **Supply - demand and Logic**: For glass, the supply - demand contradiction is large. Although some production lines are being cold - repaired, the reduction in production is insufficient compared to the decline in demand, and there is a risk of significant inventory accumulation during the Spring Festival. For soda ash, the supply - demand contradiction has eased, with reduced production and inventory. However, new production projects and potential glass cold - repairs need to be monitored [1] - **Strategy**: Glass is expected to be weak and volatile, while soda ash is expected to be volatile [2] Silicomanganese and Ferrosilicon - **Market Analysis**: Silicomanganese futures rebounded, and the spot market was strong. The 6517 grade in the northern market was priced at 5550 - 5700 yuan/ton, and in the southern market at 5680 - 5730 yuan/ton. Ferrosilicon futures continued to rebound, and the spot prices were slightly adjusted. The 72 - grade ferrosilicon in the main production area was 5200 - 5300 yuan/ton, and the 75 - grade was 5600 - 5650 yuan/ton [3] - **Supply - demand and Logic**: The fundamentals of silicomanganese are poor, with production exceeding demand and a large increase in inventory. Although steel mill复产 after New Year's Day will help repair the rigid demand, the high inventory pressure limits price increases. The low port inventory of manganese ore provides price support. The fundamentals of ferrosilicon have improved, with enterprises reducing production and factory inventory declining. After steel mill复产, the rigid demand is expected to improve, and the price will be volatile [3] - **Strategy**: Both silicomanganese and ferrosilicon are expected to be volatile [4]

Report Industry Investment Ratings - Glass: Oscillatory [2] - Soda Ash: Oscillatory and Weakening [2] - Ferrosilicon Manganese: Oscillatory [4] - Ferrosilicon: Oscillatory [4] Core Views - Market sentiment is low, and steel prices are oscillating within a range. Glass prices are oscillating upward with increased production line maintenance, while soda ash prices are oscillating narrowly. The sentiment of waiting and seeing is growing for ferrosilicon and ferrosilicon manganese, and their alloy prices are consolidating [1][3]. - For glass, the supply is contracting due to cold - repairs in some production lines in late December, but the supply contraction is insufficient, the rigid demand lacks improvement, and there is still an expectation of further decline in rigid demand as the Spring Festival approaches. High inventory also suppresses prices. For soda ash, although production has declined, it is still at a relatively high level, and with new production lines coming into operation, supply may increase further. High inventory and potential cold - repairs of float glass production lines pose challenges to heavy soda demand [1]. - For ferrosilicon manganese, enterprises are in continuous losses, with production and operating rates at relatively low levels, but the reduction in production is insufficient, leading to record - high enterprise inventories. The cost support has weakened. For ferrosilicon, production decreased significantly last week, inventory pressure has been relieved, and the fundamental contradictions have eased [3]. Summary by Related Catalogs Glass and Soda Ash Market Analysis - Glass: Futures oscillated upward yesterday, while the market transaction center of spot goods moved downward, and downstream buyers mainly purchased on demand. Some production lines are expected to undergo cold - repairs in late December, leading to a contraction in glass supply [1]. - Soda Ash: Futures oscillated narrowly yesterday, and downstream buyers showed strong waiting - and - seeing sentiment, mainly purchasing for rigid demand [1]. Supply - Demand and Logic - Glass: Production is oscillating at a high level, the supply contraction is insufficient, rigid demand lacks improvement, and there is an expectation of further decline in rigid demand as the Spring Festival approaches. High inventory suppresses prices. Attention should be paid to glass cold - repair situations and the impact of macro - policies on speculative demand [1]. - Soda Ash: Production has declined but is still at a relatively high level compared to the same period. With new production lines coming into operation, supply may increase further. High inventory and potential cold - repairs of float glass production lines pose challenges to heavy soda demand. Attention should be paid to downstream demand situations [1]. Strategy - Glass: Oscillatory [2] - Soda Ash: Oscillatory and Weakening [2] Ferrosilicon Manganese and Ferrosilicon Market Analysis - Ferrosilicon Manganese: Futures oscillated narrowly yesterday, and spot prices were consolidating at a high level. Steel tenders are ongoing, with prices in the northern market ranging from 5,520 - 5,570 yuan/ton and in the southern market from 5,620 - 5,670 yuan/ton [3]. - Ferrosilicon: Futures maintained narrow - range oscillations yesterday.

Supply - Demand and Logic - Ferrosilicon Manganese: Enterprises are in continuous losses, with production and operating rates at relatively low levels, but the reduction in production is insufficient, leading to record - high enterprise inventories. Port manganese ore inventories continue to rise, and the total manganese element inventory has slightly increased, weakening the cost support. Attention should be paid to cost support and production changes [3]. - Ferrosilicon: Production decreased significantly last week as enterprises actively adjusted their production rhythms to cope with declining demand. Inventory pressure has been relieved, and the fundamental contradictions have eased. Attention should be paid to inventory reduction, cost - end changes, and regional policies [3]. Strategy - Ferrosilicon Manganese: Oscillatory [4] - Ferrosilicon: Oscillatory [4]

Market Analysis and Strategy by Product Glass - **Market Analysis**: The glass futures market dropped significantly yesterday. Downstream procurement is cautious, mainly for刚需. The开工 rate of float glass enterprises this week was 80.63%, unchanged from last week, and the factory inventory was 65.79 million heavy boxes, a 1.24% decrease from last week, showing obvious inventory reduction. However, the supply - demand contradiction is still large, the inventory pressure is still at a historically high level, and the futures - cash merchants are squeezing the market share of glass factories. With the end of the consumption peak season and the potential for some production lines to resume production, the glass price is expected to remain under pressure [1] - **Strategy**: Oscillating weakly [2] Soda Ash - **Market Analysis**: The soda ash futures market showed a weak oscillating trend yesterday.

Currently, ferrosilicon enterprises have high production and high inventory, and the demand is expected to weaken. Although enterprises are continuously losing money, it has not effectively curbed production, and the weak fundamental situation is difficult to reverse. It is expected that the short - term ferrosilicon price will follow the sector [3] - **Strategy**: Oscillating [4]

Downstream procurement is cautious, mainly for rigid demand. Supply is generally stable, consumption is affected by speculative demand and downstream inventory replenishment, inventory has decreased but overall change is limited, and fundamentals suppress prices. Attention should be paid to macro - policy changes and peak - season demand [1] Soda Ash - Yesterday, the soda ash futures market opened lower and oscillated weakly.
