Today, glass futures prices fluctuated mainly within a narrow range with the market environment. At present, the fundamental improvement of glass itself is limited, and it is difficult to have a strong drive in the short term. The prices of manufacturers in the spot market continue to be lowered, with production and sales mainly weak and stable, and negative market feedback continues. However, given that the current futures prices are already at a relatively low level and the commodity market has a certain atmosphere to support during important meetings, there is still room for the subsequent implementation of specific policies. There is room for game, and we cannot rule out another opportunity for emotional rebound, thus opening up the arbitrage space for the future to form a phased positive feedback market. In the near future, we need to focus on whether the macro trading direction during and after important meetings supports the above views.
