Market Factor Analysis
Macroeconomic Analysis:
Macroeconomic aspects: In the early stage, the industry discussed the revision of the energy consumption standards for silicon, which had a certain boosting effect on the market at that time. However, there was no substantial implementation afterwards, and the overall market sentiment weakened.
Supply side:
Before the National Day holiday, some major silicon manufacturers resumed production, increasing overall market supply and weakening market sentiment. After the holiday, overall market supply is expected to continue to increase, but supply-side support for the market was weakening.
Demand side:
Post-holiday, downstream demand for silicon was buoyant, with downstream suppliers primarily digesting previous raw materials and some restocking at low prices. Overall, the market had seen a modest boost from the demand side.
Market outlook
As of October 14, the fundamentals of the silicon market were weak, the supply continued to be loose, and the demand was mainly based on rigid demand. The silicon data analyst of SunSirs predicts that in the short term, the domestic silicon market will mainly fluctuate in a narrow range, and more attention should be paid to the changes in the news on the supply and demand sides.
