Group 1: Natural Rubber Core View - Supply side: Rainfall in the producing areas may affect the release of new rubber, and the raw material procurement price is strong. Future focus is on the raw material situation during the peak production period. Demand side: Current channel trading is average, some agents replenish goods as needed and mainly control inventory. Terminal demand has no obvious improvement, and channels are cautious about restocking. Market sentiment has cooled recently. If the raw material volume increases smoothly during the peak production period, consider short - selling at high prices [2]. Summary of Related Catalogs - **Spot Price and Basis**: The price of Yunnan state - owned standard rubber (SCRWF) in Shanghai remained unchanged at 14,800 yuan/ton.

Group 2: Industrial Silicon Core View - Industrial silicon spot prices are stable, and the main contract has rebounded. Although the market is not optimistic about the capacity clearance and self - discipline of industrial silicon, in the context of the anti - involution policy, the overall operating price center of commodities has moved up, and industrial silicon is no exception. The cost of raw materials such as coal may increase, which will push up the cost of industrial silicon and raise the future price center. In August, the supply and demand of the industrial silicon market both increase, and it is expected to reach a tight balance. The main price fluctuation range may be between 8,000 - 9,500 yuan/ton. If the price drops to 8,000 - 8,500 yuan/ton, consider buying on dips. The inventory has increased, but the warehouse receipts are still decreasing. The main contract has shifted to SI2511, and the position of the 09 contract has decreased to about 50,000 lots. Technically, the hourly line has weakened, and it may continue to fluctuate weakly in the short term [4].

Group 3: Polysilicon Core View - In August, the supply and demand of polysilicon both increase, but the supply growth rate is larger, and there is still pressure to accumulate inventory. Due to the previous sharp price increase above the full - cost level, it is expected that the number of warehouse receipts will further increase. If there is new progress in capacity integration or clearance, polysilicon prices are expected to rise again. Otherwise, it may fluctuate and decline under the pressure of inventory and warehouse receipt increase. Currently, there are news of production restrictions, and future attention should be paid to the enterprise's operating conditions and production changes. The main price fluctuation range may be between 45,000 - 58,000 yuan/ton. After the price returns to the lower edge of the cost range, consider buying on dips. When the price is high, consider buying put options to short. The position of the 09 contract has decreased to about 18,000 lots, and investors are advised to pay attention to position control and risk management in advance [5].

Group 4: Logs Core View - From the fundamental perspective, the demand side currently remains strong at the level of 64,000 cubic meters. The inventory has significantly decreased due to fewer unloading ports and strong shipment volume. From the perspective of shipments from New Zealand, it is expected that the overall shipments in August will be the same as in July. Currently, short - term demand is strong, but the medium - and long - term demand improvement needs to be verified. This week, the futures market was weakened by new warehouse receipts. Technically, the market is in a downward correction trend. Pay attention to the support level around 800 yuan/cubic meter. At low prices, there may be long - position buyers. It is recommended to buy on dips after the market stabilizes [6]. Summary of Related Catalogs - **Futures and Spot Prices**: The price of Log 2509 decreased by 3.5 yuan/cubic meter to 809.5 yuan/cubic meter, a decline of 0.43%; the price of Log 2511 decreased by 5.5 yuan/cubic meter to 828.0 yuan/cubic meter, a decline of 0.66%; the price of Log 2601 decreased by 7.5 yuan/cubic meter to 838.0 yuan/cubic meter, a decline of 0.89%.

The average daily shipment volume of logs was 64,200 cubic meters, unchanged from the previous period [6]. Group 5: Glass and Soda Ash Core View - **Soda Ash**: Recent information from Qinghai has affected the market sentiment, but it has no impact on the supply in Qinghai for now. The weekly production has significantly rebounded, and the inventory has returned to the accumulation stage, with obvious overall over - supply in the fundamentals. Recently, the spot sales have weakened. In the medium term, after the photovoltaic installation rush in the second quarter, the growth of photovoltaic glass production capacity has slowed down, the float glass production capacity has remained flat, and there is still pressure on supply and demand in the future, with a further cold - repair expectation. Therefore, there is no growth expectation for the overall demand of soda ash. If there is no actual capacity exit or load reduction in the future, the inventory will be further pressured. In August, which is the traditional summer maintenance season for the soda ash industry, track the implementation of policies and the load adjustment of soda ash plants. The previous market increase was due to news, and consider short - selling at high prices [7]. - **Glass**: The market has been weak recently, and the negative feedback in the market continues. After the previous sharp price increase, the inventory has shifted from manufacturers to middle - stream traders and futures - cash traders, and the futures - cash inventory in Shahe has reached a new high. In the future, there may be a rush to sell during the shipment process. In Hubei, the inventory has also shifted, and the middle - stream faces shipment pressure, which will squeeze the manufacturers' shipments. Therefore, it is difficult to further increase the overall spot price. Fundamentally, the deep - processing orders are weak, the operating rate of low - emissivity glass is continuously low, and there is certain pressure on the rigid demand side of glass. In the long run, the real - estate cycle is at the bottom, and the completion volume is shrinking. Eventually, the industry needs to clear the excess capacity to solve the dilemma. In August, track the implementation of local policies and the restocking performance of downstream enterprises near the peak seasons of "Golden September and Silver October". Currently, the market sentiment has declined, and short positions can be held, while being vigilant about the market fluctuations caused by macro - factors [7].
