Today, glass futures prices opened high and went low, with the overall weak operation dominated. The weak fundamentals of glass continue. Although the spot production and sales data improved yesterday, the inventory flow between the middle and upper reaches is difficult to support the reversal of fundamentals. In the short term, glass itself still lacks strong new drivers. During the main shift period, the market may still operate in weak and volatile directions based on the downward revision of the spot price.
market outlook
Some upstream soda ash manufacturers maintained down-load production, and the overall supply side remained stable and moved slightly; market demand remained stable, and soda ash prices may fluctuate within a narrow range in the later period. The supply side of the float glass market is relatively high, while the demand side has not yet recovered. The situation of strong supply and weak demand continues, and there is no significant improvement in fundamentals. It is expected that the weak and volatile float glass market will continue in the short term.
