This week, the focus of transactions in the float glass market rose slightly. Production and sales in North China were high before and then low. At the beginning of the week, the relatively low inventory in the region combined with good market sentiment, and manufacturers shipped better. However, as the market sentiment weakened after the holiday, manufacturers shipped goods also weakened; shipments in South China were blocked due to rainfall and weather, and the overall market transaction atmosphere was general; demand support in East China was general, and manufacturers had limited willingness to increase prices. At present, the glass sentiment in the float glass market has cooled down, but its own fundamentals are expected to improve marginally and absolute prices are not high. Support still exists under the float glass market. However, there is a lack of actual positive driving in the short term. It is expected that the float glass market will fluctuate within a narrow range in the short term. Observe changes in market sentiment.

In terms of futures, market sentiment cooled during the glass week, and prices fell slightly month-on-month. At present, the glass supply side continues to decline, showing a marginal advantage.

In the short term, the contradictions and price valuation of glass itself are basically reasonable. In the short term, it may remain high and volatile, waiting for new market trading points.
