Report Summary 1. Industry Investment Ratings No industry investment ratings are provided in the given reports. 2. Core Views - The steel price is oscillating with an upward bias due to frequent favorable policies. The glass and soda ash markets are significantly affected by positive macro - sentiment, resulting in sharp price increases. The double - silicon market shows an upward - biased oscillation driven by rising macro - expectations [1][3]. - For glass, the supply is basically stable. It is currently in the off - season, and although inventory has decreased, the overall inventory remains high, and the pressure to reduce inventory is still large. In the long run, the supply - demand situation is relatively loose. For soda ash, production resumption and maintenance coexist, and the output is stable month - on - month. During the summer maintenance period, the operating rate is expected to remain at a low level. With the "anti - involution" production cuts in photovoltaic glass, the demand for soda ash is expected to weaken further, and the annual inventory pressure is large [1]. - For silicon manganese, the output is stable, and the demand shows resilience with the recovery of hot metal production. However, the high - level inventory of manufacturers and registered warrants suppresses the price. For silicon iron, the output has increased month - on - month, and the demand has slightly decreased. The factory inventory is at a medium - high level. In the short term, the market sentiment has improved, and the price fluctuates with the sector. In the long run, the production capacity is relatively loose [3]. 3. Summary by Related Catalogs Glass and Soda Ash - **Market Analysis** - Glass: The glass futures market rose significantly yesterday. In the spot market, downstream procurement was cautious, mainly for immediate needs [1]. - Soda Ash: The soda ash futures market also rose significantly yesterday. In the spot market, downstream transactions fluctuated with the market, and buyers were mainly in a wait - and - see mode [1]. - **Supply - Demand and Logic** - Glass: Supply is stable. In the off - season, inventory has decreased but remains high, and the long - term supply - demand is loose. Attention should be paid to glass factory cold - repair plans and profit situations [1]. - Soda Ash: Supply shows coexistence of production resumption and maintenance, with stable output month - on - month. During the summer maintenance, the operating rate will be low. With photovoltaic glass production cuts, demand is expected to weaken, and inventory pressure is large. Monitor production line intermittent maintenance and new production capacity [1]. - **Strategy** - Glass: Oscillation [2]. - Soda Ash: Oscillation [2]. Double - Silicon (Silicon Manganese and Silicon Iron) - **Market Analysis** - Silicon Manganese: Yesterday, it oscillated with an upward bias. In the spot market, confidence was strong. The price in the northern market was 5680 - 5730 yuan/ton, and in the southern market, it was 5700 - 5750 yuan/ton [3]. - Silicon Iron: Yesterday, the futures market was strong. In the spot market, sentiment improved, and the price increased. The price of 72 - grade silicon iron in the main production areas was 5200 - 5300 yuan/ton, and that of 75 - grade was 5650 - 5750 yuan/ton [3]. - **Supply - Demand and Logic** - Silicon Manganese: Output is stable. With the recovery of hot metal production, demand is resilient. High - level inventory of manufacturers and registered warrants suppresses the price. The Australian manganese ore shipment has basically recovered. Monitor silicon manganese inventory and manganese ore shipment [3]. - Silicon Iron: Output has increased month - on - month, and demand has slightly decreased. Factory inventory is at a medium - high level. In the short term, market sentiment has improved, and the price fluctuates with the sector. In the long run, production capacity is relatively loose. Pay attention to electricity price changes and industrial policies [3]. - **Strategy** - Silicon Manganese: Near - month contracts are suppressed by warrants. Look for low - level rebound opportunities in far - month contracts [4]. - Silicon Iron: Oscillation [4].

Report Information - Report Title: Soda Ash and Glass Daily Report [1] - Report Date: July 22, 2024 [2] - Research Team: Energy and Chemical Research Team [4] Report Core View - The soda ash market is in a situation of both supply and demand growth, but there is still inventory accumulation. The future demand side is bearish, and the overall oversupply pattern suppresses prices. The short - term disk trend is strongly volatile following the overall commodity trend, and the long - term is bearish due to the supply - demand contradiction [8][9]. - The glass market faces pressure from high inventory and slow capacity reduction. The downstream real estate has not improved substantially. The short - term disk trend is strong, and the follow - up needs to focus on policy implementation [10][11]. Summary by Directory 1. Soda Ash and Glass Market Review and Operation Suggestions Soda Ash - **July 21 Market Data**: The main futures contract SA509 opened high and closed high, with a closing price of 1,295 yuan/ton, a rise of 69 yuan/ton or 5.62%, and a daily reduction of 297,887 lots in positions [7][8]. - **Fundamentals**: In the week of July 17, the weekly output was 733,200 tons, a 3.42% increase; the capacity utilization rate was 84.10%, a 2.78% increase. The enterprise shipment volume was 691,000 tons, a 5.48% increase. The total inventory of manufacturers was 1.9056 million tons, a 2.26% increase, with high - level inventory and a slowdown in growth [8]. - **Analysis**: Summer maintenance device recovery led to increased production and inventory accumulation. The demand side is bearish due to the expected reduction in photovoltaic glass production. The overall oversupply pattern suppresses prices. The short - term disk follows the overall commodity trend, and the long - term is bearish [9]. Glass - **Supply**: Affected by the planned production reduction of photovoltaic glass enterprises, the daily melting volume of photovoltaic glass has decreased, and the supply of float glass has also declined, increasing inventory pressure. The mid - stream inventory is high, and the slow capacity reduction process may lead to further inventory accumulation [10][11]. - **Downstream**: The domestic real estate completion link has not improved substantially, and the downward trend continues [11]. - **Analysis**: The anti - involution policy expectation has strengthened market confidence. The short - term disk trend is strong, and the follow - up needs to focus on policy implementation [11]. 2.

It is recommended that speculators be rational and industrial players consider hedging [14][15]. - For glass, in the short term, it is boosted by macro - policies and inventory reduction. Long - term price trends depend on real estate policies and supply - side adjustments. It is recommended to avoid short positions [17]. - For soda ash, it is temporarily strong due to market sentiment, but there are still supply - demand contradictions in the medium - to - long term. It is recommended to avoid short positions in the short term and wait for opportunities to go short after the sentiment cools down [18].
