Today, glass futures prices surged higher and fell mainly with market macro sentiment. Overseas, the Federal Reserve cut interest rates as scheduled last night, further freeing up room for China's interest rate adjustment. Coupled with the market's expectations for the implementation of today's important meeting in China, prices surged rapidly in early trading. However, market sentiment was immediately greatly frustrated by market rumors that the announcement of China's incremental policy today would fall short of expectations. In the short term, we will observe whether the market pricing is in line with the current fundamentals after the release of macro sentiment before making a decision.

market outlook

The production and sales situation in the float glass market has improved, and there is a wait-and-see attitude in the early cold repair plan; inventory continues to be depleted to provide support for price upward; spot market prices will be adjusted mainly in a narrow range in the short term, and future price trends still need to pay attention to the persistence of the demand side recovery.
