Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core Viewpoints - Steel prices are supported by the cost side but constrained by weakening demand and potential tightening of steel export expectations, maintaining a volatile trend [3] - Iron ore has both upward and downward drivers and is expected to trade in a range, with limited upside after valuation repair [21] - As terminal winter storage approaches, the coking coal inventory structure is expected to improve, and the coke valuation repair drive may weaken [31] - The fundamentals of ferroalloys are weak in both supply and demand, with limited upside and downside space [48] - With the strengthening expectation of new soda ash capacity coming online, the market is in surplus, and prices are under pressure [62] - Some glass production lines are expected to cold repair before the Spring Festival, affecting long - term pricing, and the high inventory in the middle reaches needs to be digested [85] Summary by Categories Steel Futures Prices - On December 26, 2025, the closing prices of rebar contracts 01, 05, and 10 were 3097, 3118, and 3167 respectively; hot - rolled coil contracts 01, 05, and 10 were 3288, 3283, and 3296 respectively [4] Spot Prices - On December 26, 2025, the aggregated rebar price in China was 3318 yuan/ton, and the hot - rolled coil price in Shanghai was 3270 yuan/ton [8][10] Ratios - The ratios of 01, 05, and 10 rebar to 01, 05, and 09 iron ore were all 4; to 01, 05, and 09 coke were all 2 on December 26, 2025 [18] Iron Ore Prices - On December 26, 2025, the closing prices of 01, 05, and 09 iron ore contracts were 801.5, 783, and 761 respectively [22] Fundamentals - On December 26, 2025, the daily average hot metal output was 226.58 tons, and the 45 - port inventory was 15858.66 tons [25] Coking Coal and Coke Futures Spreads - On December 26, 2025, the spreads of coking coal 09 - 01, 05 - 09, and 01 - 05 were 174, - 80, and - 94 respectively; for coke were 224.5, - 76.5, and - 148 respectively [35] Spot Prices - On December 26, 2025, the ex - factory price of Anze low - sulfur coking coal was 1600 yuan/ton, and the ex - factory price of Jinzhong quasi - first - grade wet coke was 1330 yuan/ton [38] Ferroalloys Silicon Iron - On December 26, 2025, the silicon iron basis in Ningxia was - 72, and the spot price in Ningxia was 5350 yuan/ton [49] Silicon Manganese - On December 26, 2025, the silicon manganese basis in Inner Mongolia was 100, and the spot price in Inner Mongolia was 5590 yuan/ton [50] Soda Ash Futures Prices - On December 26, 2025, the closing prices of soda ash 05, 09, and 01 contracts were 1200, 1258, and 1121 respectively [63] Spot Prices - On December 26, 2025, the heavy - soda market price in North China was 1300 yuan/ton, and the light - soda market price was 1250 yuan/ton [63] Glass Futures Prices - On December 26, 2025, the closing prices of glass 05, 09, and 01 contracts were 1057, 1160, and 936 respectively [86] Spot Sales - On December 25, 2025, the sales - to - production ratio in Shahe was 102, and in Hubei was 97 [87]

Group 1: Report Investment Ratings - Glass: Oscillation [2] - Soda Ash: Oscillation [2] - Silicomanganese: Oscillation [4] - Ferrosilicon: Oscillation [4] Group 2: Core Views - Glass market sentiment is weak, with production and sales slightly declining and prices remaining volatile; supply contraction is insufficient, demand lacks improvement, and prices are under pressure [1] - Soda ash market sentiment is also weak, with prices in a narrow - range oscillation; production is decreasing but still high, demand is stable, and inventory is being reduced, but price rebound is restricted [1] - For silicomanganese, there is a mix of long and short sentiments, with prices oscillating; production and operating rates are low, but inventory is at a high level, and cost support is weakening [3] - For ferrosilicon, prices are in a narrow - range oscillation; production has significantly decreased, inventory pressure has eased, and fundamental contradictions have been mitigated [3] Group 3: Summary by Product Categories Glass - **Market Analysis**: Futures prices oscillated in a narrow range, and the center of spot market transactions moved down. In late December, some production lines were cold - repaired, and supply contracted. Daily melting of float glass decreased this week, and manufacturer inventory increased month - on - month [1] - **Supply - Demand and Logic**: Production decreased slightly, supply contraction was insufficient, rigid demand lacked improvement, and the supply - demand contradiction was not alleviated. With the Spring Festival approaching, rigid demand is expected to further decline, and high inventory suppresses prices. Attention should be paid to cold - repair situations and the impact of macro - policies on speculative demand [1] - **Strategy**: Oscillation [2] Soda Ash - **Market Analysis**: Futures prices oscillated in a narrow range, and downstream buyers showed strong wait - and - see sentiment, mainly making rigid - demand purchases. This week, production decreased month - on - month, and inventory was reduced month - on - month [1] - **Supply - Demand and Logic**: Production continued to decline but remained at a high level in the same period. Downstream demand was stable, and high - level inventory was being reduced, optimizing the supply - demand contradiction to some extent. However, the expected increase in float glass cold - repair plans and the launch of new soda ash production capacity restrict the price rebound. Attention should be paid to the impact of downstream demand on prices [1] - **Strategy**: Oscillation [2] Silicomanganese - **Market Analysis**: After the release of the five - major steel product consumption data, there was a mix of long and short sentiments in the futures market, with prices oscillating. Spot prices were consolidating at high levels, with the northern market price ranging from 5520 - 5570 yuan/ton and the southern market price from 5620 - 5670 yuan/ton [3] - **Supply - Demand and Logic**: Enterprises are suffering continuous losses, with production and operating rates at relatively low levels, but the production reduction is insufficient, resulting in record - high inventory. Port manganese ore inventory continued to rise, and the total manganese element inventory slightly increased, weakening cost support. Attention should be paid to manganese ore cost support and production changes [3] - **Strategy**: Oscillation [4] Ferrosilicon - **Market Analysis**: Futures prices maintained a narrow - range oscillation, and with the upcoming steel procurement, spot prices were stable. The ex - factory price of 72 - grade ferrosilicon in the main production areas was 5200 - 5250 yuan/ton, and the 75 - grade ferrosilicon price was 5600 - 5650 yuan/ton [3] - **Supply - Demand and Logic**: Last week, production significantly declined as enterprises actively adjusted their production rhythms to respond to the decline in demand. Inventory pressure was relieved, and fundamental contradictions were mitigated. Attention should be paid to inventory reduction, cost - side changes, and regional policies [3] - **Strategy**: Oscillation [4]

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The overall sentiment in the commodity market was positive yesterday, and the prices of finished steel products continued to fluctuate within the bottom range. The terminal demand remains weak, and steel prices are expected to maintain a bottom - range oscillation. The prices of finished products are under short - term pressure due to export license management policies but are expected to gradually digest policy disturbances. The willingness for winter storage is weak, and the macro level is in a policy observation period [3]. - For iron ore, the recent market environment is relatively mild. The decline in hot metal production has reduced marginal pressure. The late Spring Festival in 2026 has postponed the restocking time, and the low inventory of steel mills provides restocking demand expectations. Iron ore prices are expected to mainly operate within the oscillation range [5]. - For manganese silicon and ferrosilicon, the market macro - sentiment fluctuations have temporarily ended, and the black chain index has rebounded. The future market contradictions lie in the direction of the black sector, the cost - push from manganese ore for manganese silicon, and the supply contraction of ferrosilicon due to losses. Attention should be paid to the "dual - carbon" policy and possible emergencies in the manganese ore market [8][9]. - For industrial silicon, the short - term price rebounds to fill the gap and fluctuates strongly. The supply decline depends on the production rhythm in the northwest. The demand from polysilicon weakens, and the demand from silicone is relatively stable in the short term. The price is expected to follow the market fluctuations, and attention should be paid to new supply - side disturbances in the northwest [12]. - For polysilicon, the production is expected to decline in December, but the decline may be limited. The downstream demand is weak, and the inventory pressure before the Spring Festival is difficult to relieve. Although the upper - middle reaches are raising prices, the futures price is still unstable, and attention should be paid to spot transactions and warehouse receipt registration [16]. - For glass, the demand recovery is weak, and the market is in a supply - demand relaxation pattern. In the short term, the market is expected to continue the narrow - range oscillation [19]. - For soda ash, the downstream demand is weak, the inventory is accumulating, and the cost support is weakening. The price decline space is limited due to corporate losses. The market rebound is expected to be limited, and short positions can be considered [21]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Steel Products a. Market Information - The closing price of the rebar main contract was 3127 yuan/ton, down 9 yuan/ton (- 0.28%) from the previous trading day.

Shipments from Australia and Brazil both declined, while those from non - mainstream countries rebounded slightly. The near - end arrivals decreased. In terms of demand, the daily average hot - metal production was stable at 226.58 tons. The profitability of steel mills improved. Port inventories continued to accumulate, and steel mills' imported ore inventories increased but were still at a five - year low. Iron ore prices are expected to mainly operate within the oscillation range [5]. Manganese Silicon and Ferrosilicon a. Market Information - On December 25, the manganese silicon main contract (SM603) fluctuated, closing up 0.24% at 5846 yuan/ton. The spot price of 6517 manganese silicon in Tianjin was 5720 yuan/ton, with a converted basis of 5910 yuan/ton, unchanged from the previous day, and a premium of 64 yuan/ton over the futures. The ferrosilicon main contract (SF603) closed up 0.64% at 5692 yuan/ton. The spot price of 72 ferrosilicon in Tianjin was 5700 yuan/ton, unchanged from the previous day, and a premium of 8 yuan/ton over the futures [7]. b. Strategy Viewpoints - The macro - sentiment fluctuations have ended, and the black chain index has rebounded. The supply - demand pattern of manganese silicon is not ideal, but most factors have been priced in. The supply - demand of ferrosilicon is basically balanced, and supply has declined due to losses. Future market contradictions lie in the black sector's direction, manganese ore cost - push for manganese silicon, and ferrosilicon supply contraction due to losses [8][9]. Industrial Silicon and Polysilicon a. Market Information - Industrial silicon: The closing price of the main contract (SI2605) was 8835 yuan/ton, down 0.28% (- 25). The weighted open interest decreased by 1468 lots to 396686 lots. The spot price of 553 non - oxygenated industrial silicon in East China was 9200 yuan/ton (unchanged), with a basis of 365 yuan/ton; the price of 421 was 9650 yuan/ton (unchanged), with a basis of 15 yuan/ton [11]. - Polysilicon: The closing price of the main contract (PS2605) was 60760 yuan/ton, up 4.22% (+ 2460). The weighted open interest increased by 2097 lots to 212843 lots. The average spot prices of N - type granular silicon, N - type dense material, and N - type re - feeding material were unchanged. The basis was - 8410 yuan/ton. The Guangzhou Futures Exchange adjusted trading rules for polysilicon futures contracts from December 29, 2025 [13][14][15]. b. Strategy Viewpoints - Industrial silicon: The short - term price rebounds to fill the gap and fluctuates strongly. Supply decline depends on the northwest production rhythm, and polysilicon demand support weakens. The price is expected to follow market fluctuations, and attention should be paid to new supply - side disturbances in the northwest [12]. - Polysilicon: Production is expected to decline in December, but the decline may be limited. Downstream demand is weak, and inventory pressure is difficult to relieve. Although the upper - middle reaches are raising prices, the futures price is unstable, and attention should be paid to spot transactions and warehouse receipt registration [16]. Glass and Soda Ash a. Market Information - Glass: The glass main contract closed at 1048 yuan/ton on Thursday afternoon, up 1.95% (+ 20). The price of large - size glass in North China was 1020 yuan (unchanged), and in Central China it was 1060 yuan, down 20 yuan. The weekly inventory of float - glass sample enterprises was 58.558 million cases, up 0.57% (331000 cases). The top 20 long - position holders reduced 13175 long positions, and the top 20 short - position holders reduced 13150 short positions [18]. - Soda ash: The soda ash main contract closed at 1184 yuan/ton on Thursday afternoon, up 0.77% (+ 9). The price of heavy soda ash in Shahe was 1137 yuan (unchanged). The weekly inventory of soda - ash sample enterprises was 1.4993 million tons, up 0.57% (5000 tons), with heavy - soda inventory down 18800 tons and light - soda inventory up 23800 tons. The top 20 long - position holders reduced 11632 long positions, and the top 20 short - position holders reduced 13318 short positions [20]. b. Strategy Viewpoints - Glass: Demand recovery is weak, and the market is in a supply - demand relaxation pattern. In the short term, the market is expected to continue the narrow - range oscillation [19]. - Soda ash: Downstream demand is weak, inventory is accumulating, and cost support is weakening. The price decline space is limited due to corporate losses. The market rebound is expected to be limited, and short positions can be considered [21].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The mid - term outlook for the black building materials industry is "Oscillation" [3] 2. Core View of the Report - The pressure on the real - world end still exists, and the performance of the futures market is under pressure. Although steel is in the off - season and continues to destock, with the expectation of steel mill复产 and winter storage restocking, there is support for furnace materials. However, the inventory pressure of hot - rolled coils remains, the downstream restocking willingness is low, the iron ore port inventory accumulates, and the inventory of the coking coal and coke industry chain increases. The fundamentals are lackluster, and the futures market performance is under pressure. In the short term, the futures market is under pressure, but there is still room for a rebound at low levels after the weak adjustment before spring due to the winter storage restocking expectation [1][2][3] 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Iron Element - **Iron Ore**: The port inventory has increased significantly, iron water production is basically stable, steel mills make small - scale restocking, and the game between upstream and downstream is strong. Short - term ore prices are expected to oscillate. The overseas mine shipments have decreased slightly month - on - month, the arrivals this period have decreased month - on - month, and the demand side has seen a slight recovery in the steel mill profit rate, but the restocking demand release is still slow [2][7] - **Scrap Steel**: Supply is weak and demand is stable. Steel mills are destocking, and the fundamentals are marginally strengthening. Short - term electric furnace profits are acceptable, and the demand for scrap steel from short - process steel enterprises still has support. It is expected that the spot price will oscillate. This week's arrivals are low, the daily consumption of steel enterprises is stable, the inventory of long - process steel mills is high, and the total inventory has decreased slightly [2][8] 3.2 Carbon Element - **Coke**: The cost side has shown signs of stabilization. After January, there is an expectation of steel mill复产. With the gradual start of winter storage restocking in the middle and lower reaches, the supply - demand structure may gradually tighten. The fundamentals still support the price, and the futures market is expected to oscillate following coking coal. As the New Year approaches, the intensity of winter storage increases, and after January, the import pressure will ease. The fundamentals of coking coal will continue to improve marginally, and there is still room for the futures market valuation to repair [2] - **Coking Coal**: Before the parade, the coal mine production is tightened, and the futures market oscillates. The overall production has declined, and the spot price has slightly decreased. The supply is affected by accidents, safety inspections, and self - initiated production cuts. The import is still at a high level, and the demand has slightly declined in the short term. The futures market is expected to be supported before the parade, and the short - term fundamentals' contradiction is not prominent [10][11][12] 3.3 Alloys - **Silicomanganese**: The supply - demand pattern of loose supply continues, the upstream inventory pressure is obvious, which suppresses the upward space of the futures market. In the medium term, the futures price is expected to oscillate around the cost valuation. The cost has slightly loosened, the demand from steel mills is weak in the off - season, and the supply contraction is insufficient to achieve high - level destocking [15] - **Ferrosilicon**: The upstream supply pressure is gradually alleviating, but the market has weak supply and demand in the terminal off - season. It is difficult for the ferrosilicon futures price to have an independent upward trend. It is expected that the futures price will mainly oscillate around the cost valuation. The cost is at a relatively high level, the demand from steel mills and the metal magnesium industry is weak, and the supply has decreased significantly [17] 3.4 Glass and Soda Ash - **Glass**: The supply still has the expectation of disturbance, but the inventory of the middle and lower reaches is moderately high. Currently, the supply - demand is still in surplus. If there is no more cold repair before the end of the year, the high inventory will always suppress the price, and it is expected to oscillate weakly; otherwise, the price will rise. The macro is neutral, the supply is under pressure in the long term but difficult to have a large number of cold repairs in the short term, and the demand is weak [3][12] - **Soda Ash**: The overall supply - demand is still in surplus. It is expected to oscillate in the short term. In the long run, the supply surplus pattern will further intensify, and the price center will still decline to promote capacity reduction. The daily production has rebounded, the demand is weakening, and the industry is in the stage of clearing out at the bottom of the cycle [3][13][15] 3.5 Steel - The spot market transactions are generally weak. Steel mill profitability has improved, iron water production has stopped falling and stabilized, and the decline in the output of the five major steel products has slowed down. The off - season demand has declined seasonally, but there is still support for demand. The overall steel inventory continues to destock, but the mid - stream inventory level is still higher year - on - year, and there is an expectation of weakening demand. It is expected that the futures price will oscillate at a low level [7] 3.6 Commodity Index - On December 25, 2025, the comprehensive index of CITIC Futures commodities was 2327.86, down 0.14%; the commodity 20 index was 2669.31, down 0.12%; the industrial product index was 2254.18, down 0.17%. The steel industry chain index on December 25, 2025, was 1976.20, with a daily decline of 0.24%, a five - day increase of 0.29%, a one - month decline of 0.20%, and a year - to - date decline of 6.26% [103][105]

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the challenges and strategies for achieving reasonable price recovery in China, emphasizing the importance of stabilizing economic growth and employment while addressing structural issues in the economy [2][21]. Group 1: Economic Context - The current period of price stagnation in China began in 2012, with PPI entering negative territory and CPI fluctuating between 0-1% since 2022, raising concerns about economic health [3][6]. - China's PPI remained negative for approximately 8.5 years from 2012 to 2025, primarily due to structural issues such as overcapacity and declining consumer demand [6][21]. - The shift in PPI trends is attributed to various factors, including global commodity price changes, the impact of stimulus policies, and the structural transformation of China's manufacturing sector [4][5][6]. Group 2: Policy Responses - The Chinese government has implemented supply-side structural reforms since 2015 to address overcapacity and stabilize prices, focusing on reducing leverage and excess inventory [4][5]. - The recent Central Economic Work Conference highlighted the need to promote stable economic growth and reasonable price recovery as key monetary policy considerations [2][21]. - The article suggests that expanding domestic demand, particularly through consumption, is crucial for price recovery, as current investment growth is hindered by low returns and overcapacity [11][14][21]. Group 3: Structural Challenges - The article identifies three main reasons for the current consumption slump: declining wage growth, a rigid income distribution structure, and a weak real estate market [14][20]. - The aging population and consumption downgrade are contributing to reduced demand in sectors like alcohol, indicating broader demographic challenges [6][14]. - The need for fiscal policy reform is emphasized, with a focus on increasing the income share of middle and low-income groups to stimulate consumption and support price recovery [18][21]. Group 4: Future Outlook - The article warns that achieving reasonable price recovery will require sustained efforts to address structural, cyclical, and institutional issues, rather than relying solely on monetary policy [21]. - It suggests that significant fiscal measures are necessary to enhance consumer income and stabilize the real estate market, which is vital for overall economic health [20][21].
