Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core View of the Report - The market sentiment cooled slightly yesterday, with the commodity market weakening significantly and the stock index showing a volatile trend. The trading volume also contracted. After a rapid rise, the stock index has entered a stage of shock consolidation. There are no obvious macro-level negatives at present, and the short-term outlook for the stock index remains bullish. The bond futures are favored by the asset shortage and weak economy, but the central bank has recently warned of interest rate risks. Attention should be paid to the Bank of Japan's interest rate decision. [1] - The prices of various commodities are affected by different factors, such as supply and demand, policy changes, and macro sentiment. The report provides trend judgments and trading suggestions for each commodity, including metals, energy, chemicals, and agricultural products. [1] Summary by Related Catalogs Macro Finance - Stock Index: After a rapid rise, the stock index has entered a stage of shock consolidation. There are no obvious macro-level negatives at present, and the short-term outlook for the stock index remains bullish. Attention should be paid to capital flows and market sentiment changes. [1] - Treasury Bonds: The bond futures are favored by the asset shortage and weak economy, but the central bank has recently warned of interest rate risks. Attention should be paid to the Bank of Japan's interest rate decision. [1] Non-Ferrous Metals - Copper: The copper price has fallen from its recent high, but there are still disruptions in the mining end. The downside space for the copper price is expected to be limited. [1] - Aluminum: There has been an accumulation of domestic electrolytic aluminum stocks recently, and the industrial driving force is limited. The macro anti-involution sentiment has ebbed, and the aluminum price has fallen from its high. [1] - Alumina: The supply side of alumina still has a large release space, and the industrial side exerts downward pressure on the price. However, the current price is basically near the cost line, and the price is expected to fluctuate. [1] - Zinc: The fundamentals of zinc have improved, and the cost center has shifted upward. The recent macro sentiment has been good, and the zinc price has risen. However, considering the still existing pressure on the fundamentals, caution is advised regarding the upside space. [1] - Nickel: The market's concerns about nickel supply have significantly cooled, and the LME nickel inventory has increased significantly recently. The nickel price has corrected from its high. Since Indonesia has not disclosed the specific amount and said that it is still in the process of accounting, there is still uncertainty about the implementation of the subsequent policy. The short-term volatility risk of the nickel price has increased. Attention should be paid to the implementation of Indonesia's policy, changes in macro sentiment, and changes in futures positions, and risk control should be done well. [1] Precious Metals and New Energy - Gold and Silver: The annual weight adjustment of the BCOM index has officially started, and the exchange has introduced multiple risk control measures for silver to suppress speculative enthusiasm. The prices of precious metals have fallen across the board, with a significant decline in silver. In the short term, gold and silver are expected to continue to be weak and volatile. In the medium and long term, attention can be paid to the opportunity to buy on dips after this round of risk release. [1] - Platinum and Palladium: Platinum and palladium have followed the weakening of precious metals. In the short term, they are expected to be in a wide-range volatile pattern. In the medium and long term, with the still existing supply-demand gap for platinum and the tendency of palladium to have a loose supply, platinum can still be bought on dips or a [long platinum, short palladium] arbitrage strategy can be adopted. [1] Industrial Products - Industrial Silicon: There is an increase in production in the northwest and a decrease in production in the southwest. The production schedules for polysilicon and organic silicon in December have decreased. [1] - Polysilicon: It is the traditional peak season for new energy vehicles. The demand for energy storage is strong. The supply side has increased production resumption. There is a short-term rapid increase. [1] - Rebar and Hot Rolled Coil: In the short term, sentiment and capital have a greater influence than industrial contradictions. One can try to follow long positions with a stop-loss; for futures-spot trading, participate in positive spread positions. [1] - Iron Ore: There is sector rotation, but the upside pressure on iron ore is obvious. It is not recommended to chase long positions at this level. [1] - Non-Ferrous Metals: There is a combination of weak reality and strong expectations. The current supply and demand situation remains weak, but in terms of expectations, energy consumption double control and anti-involution may have an impact on supply. [1] - Soda Ash: Soda ash follows the trend of glass. In the medium term, the supply and demand situation will be more relaxed, and the price will be under pressure. [1] - Coking Coal and Coke: If the "capacity reduction" expectation continues to ferment and there is pre-holiday restocking of spot goods, coking coal may still have room to rise. However, since the current market's "capacity reduction" expectation mainly comes from online rumors, it is difficult to judge the actual upside space. After a significant increase, the volatility will intensify, and caution should be exercised. The logic for coke is the same as that for coking coal. [1] Agricultural Products - Palm Oil: The MPOB December data is expected to be bearish for palm oil, but palm oil will reverse under the themes of seasonal production reduction, the B50 policy, and US biodiesel in the future. Short-term rebounds due to macro sentiment should be watched out for. [1] - Soybean Oil: The fundamentals of soybean oil are relatively strong. It is recommended to allocate more in the oil sector and consider a long Y, short P spread. Wait for the January USDA report. [1] - Rapeseed Oil: The trade relationship between China and Canada may improve, and Australian rapeseed will be imported smoothly. After the rapeseed trade flow is opened up, the trading logic of rapeseed oil will gradually shift from the domestic tight supply situation to the global rapeseed production increase expectation. There is still room for the price to fall. Short-term rebounds due to macro sentiment should be watched out for. [1] - Cotton: There is a strong expectation of a good harvest for domestic new crops, and the purchase price of seed cotton supports the cost of lint cotton. The downstream operating rate remains low, but the inventory of yarn mills is not high, and there is a rigid demand for restocking. Considering the growth of spinning capacity, the demand for cotton in the new crop market year is relatively resilient. Currently, the cotton market is in a situation of "having support but no driving force." Future attention should be paid to the tone of the No. 1 Central Document in the first quarter of next year regarding the direct subsidy price and cotton planting area, the intention of cotton planting area next year, the weather during the planting period, and the demand during the "Golden Three and Silver Four" peak season. [1] - Sugar: Currently, there is a global surplus of sugar, and the supply of domestic new crops has increased. The short-selling consensus is relatively strong. If the futures price continues to fall, there will be strong cost support below. However, there is a lack of continuous driving force in the short-term fundamentals. Attention should be paid to changes in the capital side. [1] - Corn: The fundamentals of corn have not changed significantly. The spot price remains firm, and the progress of grain sales at the grassroots level is relatively fast. Most traders have not yet strategically built inventories, and feed enterprises maintain a safe inventory. There is a certain restocking demand before the holiday. The short-term outlook for CO3 is expected to be oscillating and slightly bullish. Attention should be paid to the dynamics of policy grain auctions. [1] - Soybean Meal: The domestic market may restart the auction of imported soybeans; the relationship between China and Canada is expected to ease, and China is expected to suspend the tax on Canadian rapeseed meal; the macro sentiment has cooled, and the domestic market has returned to the fundamentals and shown a significant decline. Recently, it has been greatly affected by policy news. The soybean meal futures price is expected to be mainly oscillating in the short term. Attention should be paid to the adjustment of the January USDA supply and demand report and the trend of the Brazilian premium. [1] - Pulp: Pulp has fallen today due to the decline in the commodity macro market. The overall price has not broken through the oscillating range. The short-term commodity sentiment fluctuates greatly, and it is recommended to observe cautiously. [1] - Logs: The spot price of logs has shown a certain sign of bottoming out and rebounding recently. The further downside space for the futures price is expected to be limited. However, the January overseas quotation has still slightly declined, and the log futures and spot markets lack upward driving factors. It is expected to oscillate in the range of 760 - 790 yuan/m³. [1] - Hogs: Recently, the spot price has gradually stabilized. Supported by demand and with the出栏体重 not yet fully cleared, the production capacity still needs to be further released. [1] Energy and Chemicals - Crude Oil: OPEC+ has suspended production increases until the end of 2026. There is uncertainty about the Russia-Ukraine peace agreement. The United States has imposed sanctions on Venezuela's crude oil exports. [1] - Fuel Oil: In the short term, the supply-demand contradiction is not prominent, and it follows the trend of crude oil. The probability of the 14th Five-Year Plan's rush demand being falsified is high, and the supply of Ma Rui crude oil is not short. The profit of asphalt is relatively high. [1] - BR Rubber: The futures position has declined, and the number of new warehouse receipts has increased. The increase in BR has slowed down temporarily. The spot price has led the rise to repair the basis, and BR continues to focus on the upward momentum above the 12,000 yuan line. The listed prices of BD/BR have been continuously raised, and the processing profit of butadiene rubber has narrowed. The overseas cracking device capacity has been cleared, which is beneficial to the long-term export expectation of domestic butadiene. The tax on naphtha also has a positive impact on the butadiene price. Fundamentally, butadiene rubber maintains high production and high inventory operation, and the trading center is generally average. Styrene-butadiene rubber is relatively better than butadiene rubber. [1] - PX and PTA: The PX market has experienced a rapid rise, but this round of rise is not due to a fundamental change. The fundamentals of PX do have support, and the market is expected to continue to tighten in 2026, driven by the new PTA production capacity in India and the organic growth of demand. Domestic PTA maintains high production. The gasoline spread is still at a high level, which supports aromatics. [1] - Ethylene Glycol: There is news that two sets of MEG plants in Taiwan, China, with a total annual capacity of 720,000 tons, plan to stop production next month due to efficiency reasons. Ethylene glycol has rebounded rapidly during the continuous decline, stimulated by supply-side news. The current operating rate of the polyester downstream remains above 90%, and the demand performance is slightly better than expected. [1] - Short Fiber: The PX market has experienced a rapid rise, but this round of rise is not due to a fundamental change. Domestic PTA maintains high production, and the domestic polyester load has declined. The short fiber price continues to closely follow the cost fluctuations. [1] - Styrene: The Asian styrene market is generally stable. Suppliers are reluctant to lower prices due to continuous losses, while buyers insist on pressing prices due to weak downstream polymer demand and compressed profits. Although the downstream demand is weak, the domestic market has a strong bullish sentiment due to export support. The market is in a weak balance state, and the short-term upward momentum needs to be driven by the overseas market. [1] - Urea: The export sentiment has slightly eased, and there is limited upside space due to insufficient domestic demand. There is support from anti-involution and the cost side below. [1] - PF: Geopolitical conflicts have intensified, and there is a risk of an increase in crude oil prices. There are fewer maintenance activities, the operating load is at a high level, and there are overseas arrivals, so the supply has increased. The downstream demand operating rate has weakened. In 2026, there will be more new production capacity, and the supply-demand surplus will further intensify, and the market expectation is weak. [1] - Propylene: There are fewer maintenance activities, the operating load is relatively high, and the supply pressure is relatively large. The improvement in the downstream is less than expected. The propylene monomer price is at a high level, the crude oil price has risen, and the cost support is strong. Geopolitical conflicts have intensified, and there is a risk of an increase in crude oil prices. [1] - PVC: In 2026, there will be less global new production capacity, and the future expectation is relatively optimistic. Currently, there are fewer maintenance activities, new production capacity is being released, and the supply pressure is increasing. The demand has weakened, and the orders are not good. The differential electricity price in the northwest region is expected to be implemented, which will force the clearance of PVC production capacity. [1] - LPG: The January CP has risen more than expected, and the cost support for imported gas is relatively strong. The geopolitical conflicts between the United States, Venezuela, and the Middle East have escalated, and the short-term risk premium has increased. The trend of inventory accumulation in the EIA weekly C3 inventory has slowed down, and it is expected to gradually turn to inventory reduction. The domestic port inventory has also decreased. Domestic PDH maintains high production and deep losses. There is a rigid demand for global civil combustion, and the demand for MTBE from overseas olefin blending for gasoline has declined temporarily. Since January 1, 2026, naphtha has been re-taxed, and the long-term demand expectation for light cracking raw materials such as LPG has increased, and the performance of downstream olefin products is relatively strong. [1] Shipping - Container Shipping - European Line: It is expected to peak in mid-January. Airlines are still relatively cautious in their trial reflights. The pre-holiday restocking demand still exists. [1]

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In 2026, the over - capacity of industrial silicon will not be fundamentally alleviated. High inventory will suppress prices, while the cost line will form a strong support. Supply - side policies are the biggest source of elasticity. The price range is expected to be 7500 - 9700 yuan/ton; under the scenario of strong policy stimulus, it will move up to 8500 - 10500 yuan/ton; under the scenario of unexpectedly weak demand, it will drop to 7000 - 7500 yuan/ton. The overall demand growth rate of industrial silicon will continue to slow down, but as the supply side also enters a contraction cycle, the overall supply - demand structure will become more balanced [3][40]. Summary by Directory Chapter 1: 2025 Industrial Silicon Market Trend Review - In 2025, the industrial silicon futures and spot markets showed a trend of "deep decline in the first half, hitting the bottom in June, and low - level volatile rebound from July to December". The average price of the futures main contract for the whole year was about 8800 yuan/ton, and the average comprehensive price of the spot was about 9200 yuan/ton. The futures and spot markets showed a pattern of spot premium for a long time. The spot market had multiple structural characteristics [9]. - In the first half of the year (January - June), the price dropped from a high level, and the supply - demand contradiction emerged. The average price of the 553 mainstream spot in January was about 9800 yuan/ton, falling below 9000 yuan/ton in March and reaching the annual low of 8600 - 8700 yuan/ton at the end of June. The 441 dropped from 11690 yuan/ton to 8620 yuan/ton, a decrease of 26.26%. The futures main contract SI2508/SI2510 started at about 10800 yuan/ton, fell below 10,000 yuan in March, and reached the lowest point of about 7015 yuan/ton on June 4, with a decline of about 36% in the first half of the year. The trading volume and open interest gradually shrank. The core driving factors were the natural decline in the off - season of downstream industries after the Spring Festival, the gradual release of new production capacity in 2024, and the lack of substantial production - capacity control policies [9][10]. - In the second half of the year (July - December), the price rebounded after hitting the bottom + low - level oscillation. The 553 mainstream spot price rebounded in July, rose to 9300 - 9500 yuan/ton from September to October, and stabilized at 9200 - 9300 yuan/ton (East China oxygen - blowing) in December. The futures main contract SI2601/SI2605 rebounded with cost repair and the expectation of production reduction in Southwest China from July, rose to 9000 - 9200 yuan/ton from September to October, and fell back to 8800 - 8900 yuan/ton in December. The trading volume and open interest increased. The core driving factors were the reduction in supply due to the rise in electricity prices during the dry season in Southwest China and the maintenance of some enterprises in Xinjiang, and the limited rebound amplitude due to high inventory [10]. Chapter 2: Analysis of the Supply - Demand Situation of Industrial Silicon in 2025/26 2.1 Supply Side: The Core Contradiction is Excess Supply, and Policy Regulation is the Catalyst - In November 2025, China's industrial silicon output was 401,700 tons, a year - on - year decrease of 11.2%. From January to November, the cumulative output reached 3.868 million tons, a cumulative year - on - year decrease of 14.7%. In the early stage of the year, the output was low. After April, Xinjiang made significant production cuts. In June, the output of most provinces decreased. After August, the supply in the main production areas increased. In the fourth quarter, the output in Xinjiang remained high, while that in Southwest China decreased slightly. In November, the output decreased to around 400,000 tons [14]. - From January to November 2025, Xinjiang's cumulative output was 1.9248 million tons, accounting for 52.03%. Inner Mongolia's output was 438,900 tons, accounting for 11.86%. Gansu's output was 329,700 tons, accounting for 8.91%. Yunnan's output was 300,800 tons, accounting for 8.13%. Sichuan's output was 323,500 tons, accounting for 8.74%. With the implementation of anti - involution policies, the release of new production capacity in the future will be extremely limited [15]. 2.2 Demand Side: The Establishment of a New Polysilicon Platform Company Marks the Entry of the Photovoltaic Industry's Anti - Involution Governance into a Critical Stage - From January to November 2024, China's polysilicon cumulative output was 1.206 million tons, a cumulative year - on - year decrease of 27.3%. In the first half of the year, the polysilicon price was low. After June, enterprises were determined to stabilize prices. By mid - December, the price of P - type dense materials soared to 49 - 51 yuan/kg, and the price of N - type silicon materials rose to 49.6 - 55 yuan/kg, a year - on - year increase of 26.5%. On December 12, 2025, the "polysilicon production - capacity integration and acquisition platform" was officially established, which has great strategic value for rectifying the industry's "involution" [29][31]. 2.2.1 Organic Silicon Production Cuts to Support Prices Yielded Results, and the Supply - Demand Will Enter a Sustainable New Ecosystem - From January to November 2025, China's organic silicon DMC cumulative output was 2.272 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 4.6%. In the first half of the year, the organic silicon industry faced over - capacity and weak terminal consumption. In the third quarter, the price rebounded slightly. In the fourth quarter, after the anti - involution industry meeting, enterprises reached a consensus on a 30% production cut and jointly supported prices. The DMC spot price rose from 11050 yuan/ton at the beginning of the fourth quarter to 13600 yuan/ton. It is expected that in 2026, the output will increase limitedly, and the supply - demand will enter a sustainable new ecosystem [33]. Chapter 3: Outlook for the Industrial Silicon Market in 2026 - In terms of supply, in 2026, the national industrial silicon planned new production capacity will be only 700,000 tons, and the production capacity will further shrink. In terms of demand, the overall demand growth rate of industrial silicon will continue to slow down, but the overall supply - demand structure will become more balanced [3][40]. - The over - capacity will not be fundamentally alleviated, high inventory will suppress prices, the cost line will form a strong support, and supply - side policies are the biggest source of elasticity. The price range is 7500 - 9700 yuan/ton; under the scenario of strong policy stimulus, it will move up to 8500 - 10500 yuan/ton; under the scenario of unexpectedly weak demand, it will drop to 7000 - 7500 yuan/ton. The price will be strong during the dry season and Spring Festival stocking, pressured during the wet season when supply increases and polysilicon demand slows down, and will stabilize and rebound with inventory reduction and cost support [3][40].

Group 1 - The domestic silicon dioxide production facilities in Central China are operating at reduced capacity as of January 6 [1] - The market price for silicon dioxide DMC in Central China is approximately 13,700 yuan per ton, with specific transactions to be discussed further [1]
