Today's glass futures prices were mainly volatile. Supported by favorable macro policies and the strength of related commodities, glass futures prices have recently been running strongly. After the futures price rose, arbitrage space has been opened again. The feedback from the main spot production and marketing area was good over the weekend. Production and sales improved month-on-month, and manufacturers 'quotations have stabilized and rebounded again. However, due to the actual demand for glass terminals is temporarily limited. In the short term, there is more inventory flow between the middle and upper reaches, and there is relatively limited room for growth on the market. In the future, we can observe that the glass market is receiving positive feedback on market sustainability issues.

 

market outlook

With the frequent positive policies on the real estate side, the market atmosphere has been driven to a certain extent. The futures market has been strongly volatile, and the spot market has also formed a certain positive feedback. However, due to limited improvement in the fundamentals of glass itself, the upward strength or impact will continue to be exerted in the short term. It is necessary to continue to observe the impact of the implementation of macro policies on the actual demand for glass. It is expected that the float glass market will mainly stabilize prices in the short term and adjust flexibly.
