Report Information - Report Title: Soda Ash and Glass Daily Report [1] - Report Date: November 6, 2025 [2] Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Core Views - For soda ash, the supply remains high, the开工 rate declines slightly, and inventory decreases marginally. The downstream market mainly replenishes inventory at low prices, and the glass market continues to face weak supply and demand. With the arrival of winter, there is insufficient driving force in the supply - demand aspect, and the pattern of oversupply may continue. The market is expected to fluctuate weakly [8]. - For glass, although the production limit in Shahe has been implemented, the actual situation is below expectations. Coupled with the arrival of the off - season, there is no new driving force in the market. The short - term bullish sentiment from the Shahe production halt has been digested. The price will mainly fluctuate in the near term, and if there is no new macro - level positive news, the downward trend is difficult to reverse [9]. Summary by Directory 1. Soda Ash and Glass Market Review and Operation Suggestions Soda Ash - **Market Data**: On November 5, the main soda ash futures contract SA601 fluctuated strongly. The closing price was 1,195 yuan/ton, up 1 yuan/ton or 0.08%, with a daily reduction of 36,997 lots [7]. - **Fundamentals**: The enterprise production and sales tend to balance, and inventory fluctuates little. The weekly production increased by 17,000 tons to 757,600 tons, remaining at a high level. The soda ash plant maintenance is at a high level in the same period. In late October, the shipments of Chinese soda ash enterprises continued to recover, with a total shipment of 757,700 tons, a month - on - month increase of 2.53%. The production of float glass remained stable, but four coal - fired production lines in Shahe are planned to be shut down for cold repair, and the production of photovoltaic glass remained unchanged. The alkali plant inventory slightly decreased to 1.702 million tons, at a relatively low level in the past six months [8]. Glass - **Market Data**: The four coal - fired production lines in Shahe will be shut down in the short term. The photovoltaic glass market is in a weak balance, and the overall glass supply is at a high level for the year. After the holiday, the factory inventory remains high, and the inventory days have continued to rise. The real estate market has not shown a stabilizing trend, the completion data is weak, and the recovery of float glass demand may not be sustainable [9]. 2.

Report Industry Investment Ratings No relevant information provided. Core Views Natural Rubber - Short - term macro - atmosphere improves, fundamentals improve, and rubber prices rebound. Follow - up attention should be paid to raw material output in the peak production season of main producing areas and macro - level changes. If raw material supply is smooth, there is further downward space; if not, rubber prices are expected to run around 15,000 - 15,500 yuan/ton [1]. Logs - Currently, there is no obvious driving force in the log supply - demand situation. The 01 contract is relatively strong. New rounds of foreign quotes have increased, and subsequent port fees are expected to rise, providing strong cost support. During the seasonal peak season, there is some support below the futures price, and the 01 contract may be strong [4]. Industrial Silicon - Some industrial silicon spot prices have decreased by 50 yuan/ton, and futures have fluctuated and closed down by 20 yuan/ton to 8,485 yuan/ton. In September, exports decreased by 8% month - on - month to 70,200 tons, but still increased year - on - year. In October, industrial silicon supply has increased significantly, with inventory risks, and prices will still be under pressure. Although some enterprises in the southwest region have reduced production, the impact on output is small. Considering the possible increase in raw material costs, the price center of gravity is expected to move up in the future. It is expected to fluctuate at a low level, with the main price range between 8,000 - 9,000 yuan/ton [5]. Polysilicon - The polysilicon market is relatively stable. On one hand, pay attention to policy implementation and production control; on the other hand, pay attention to whether there is an increase in orders on the demand side. Currently, it is mainly in a high - level shock. In November, production reduction in the southwest region during the dry season will relieve the pressure of production growth and support prices. Be vigilant against the risk of inventory accumulation due to insufficient demand [6]. Glass and Soda Ash - **Soda Ash**: Driven by the strengthening of coking coal - related varieties, the soda ash futures price has rebounded slightly, but the fundamentals have not changed significantly. Previously, soda ash has been weak, with manufacturers' inventories and mid - stream delivery inventories increasing. The supply is in excess. In the medium - term, downstream demand is expected to remain at the previous rigid - demand level. The overall supply - demand pattern is bearish, and the strategy of short - selling on rebounds can be continued [7]. - **Glass**: Driven by the strengthening of coking coal - related varieties, the glass futures price has rebounded slightly, but the fundamentals have not changed significantly. Manufacturers' sales are average, and prices are continuously decreasing. The trading sentiment reflects that the peak season is not prosperous and the supply is in excess. In the long - term, the real - estate cycle is at the bottom, and capacity clearance is needed to solve the over - supply problem [7].

The near - month 11 - contract has insufficient willingness of long - positions to take delivery, and the far - month 01 - contract is relatively strong. The external quotation is firm, while the spot price has limited upward momentum. The 11 - contract is approaching the delivery month and may face greater pressure from hedging positions. The overall inventory is low, and the market may mainly fluctuate widely in the short term [4].

Group 3: Glass and Soda Ash Report Industry Investment Rating Not mentioned Core View - **Soda Ash**: The overall trend is weakening, with factory and intermediate - level inventories increasing. Supply is in excess, and demand is expected to remain at the previous rigid - demand level in the medium term. The market should follow macro - level fluctuations and the production - load adjustment of soda - ash plants. The overall strategy is to short on rebounds [5]. - **Glass**: The market is sluggish during the peak season, with fundamental oversupply. Deep - processing orders have improved seasonally but are still weak. In the long - term, the industry needs to clear excess capacity. It is recommended to stop loss on short positions for now and pay attention to spot - purchasing rhythm, high - frequency data changes, and macro - level drivers in the medium term [5].
