Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2. Core Viewpoint The current supply and demand of lithium carbonate remain tight, and the market is optimistic about the demand for lithium carbonate next year, driving the continuous rise in lithium carbonate prices. In the context of good demand expectations, short - term trading is recommended. If the price回调 due to factors such as mine复产, it is more prudent to buy on dips [5]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Latest Dynamics and Reasons On November 19th, the lithium carbonate futures price strengthened again, with the main contract rising over 4% and the disk price approaching 100,000 yuan per ton. The core reason for this price rebound is the continuous improvement in the demand side. The demand for power batteries and energy - storage batteries remains high, driving the accelerated depletion of lithium carbonate inventory. The market has an optimistic demand expectation for next year. The prices of industrial chain materials are rising synchronously, enhancing the upward momentum of lithium carbonate. On November 18th, a seminar on "Cost Research in the Lithium Iron Phosphate Material Industry" was held, emphasizing the need to guide the industry's orderly development [3]. Fundamental Situation Supply of lithium resources is gradually recovering, but demand is stronger, and the supply - demand relationship remains in a tight balance. SMM data shows that the lithium carbonate production in October rose to 92,300 tons, and is expected to remain high from November to December. The demand side is strong. From November to December, there is still support. Policies such as "trade - in" and purchase tax relief promote the production and sales of new - energy vehicles. The energy - storage economy is improving, and the market's optimistic expectation for next - year's energy - storage demand will boost lithium carbonate in the long - term. The production of cathodes and electrolytes remains high, with lithium hexafluorophosphate rising over 190% since mid - July. The current inventory of lithium carbonate is continuously depleting, and it is expected to continue from November to December. The overall supply - demand pattern from November to December is still tight [4]. Summary and Strategy Currently, the supply and demand of lithium carbonate are tight, and the market's optimistic demand expectation for next year drives the price up. In the context of good demand expectations, short - term trading is recommended. If the price回调 due to factors such as mine复产, it is more prudent to buy on dips [5].
