The supply was still in excess, and the pattern of oversupply in the market had not been effectively improved. The market price was expected to fluctuate weakly [8]. Glass - **Fundamentals**: The overall glass production showed a slight upward trend but remained in the bottom range. The spot price rebounded, improving the industry's profit. The deep - processing orders remained basically unchanged, mainly driven by rigid demand. The inventory started to accumulate again. For float glass, the supply - side pressure was marginally relieved compared to last year, and the cost side provided some support, but the demand side was weak. The photovoltaic glass market experienced a significant price increase, driven by strong demand [9][10]. - **Macro Situation**: With the boost of peak - season demand and the strengthening of anti - intense competition expectations. - **Outlook**: The main futures contract of glass was expected to maintain a volatile trend in the short term [10] Group 3: Data Overview - The report provided multiple data charts, including the price trends of active contracts of soda ash and glass, weekly production and enterprise inventory of soda ash, market price of heavy soda ash in Central China, and flat glass production [14][15][17]
