Today, glass futures prices fluctuated mainly within a narrow range. At present, the fundamentals of glass itself are expected to change marginally, but the improvement of glass itself is still relatively limited after the market returns to the realistic logic. Coupled with the recent weakness of the overall environment of the commodity market, the glass market has formed a negative feedback resonance situation. However, the profit on the glass disk is not high, and the room for correction may be relatively limited. In the future, we need to continue to pay attention to whether the overall commodity market environment can stabilize. Before new drivers emerge, glass may remain weak and volatile with the market environment.
