Analysis of Market Factors
In terms of supply and demand: As of January 9th, the overall trading atmosphere in the silicon market was light, and the pace of market shipments was not active. There was some supply pressure on the supply side in some regions, and it is difficult for factories to stimulate downstream purchasing enthusiasm even if they actively shipped. As of January 9th, the downstream market's demand for purchasing silicon has weakened, and the market's destocking performance was poor. The overall transmission between supply and demand was insufficient, and the contradiction between supply and demand was more obvious.
Market outlook
As of January 9th, the market sentiment in the silicon field was still strong, and the pre holiday market stocking sentiment was poor. The mentality of the industry was average. The silicon data analyst of SunSirs believes that in the short term, the domestic silicon market will mainly adjust and operate in a narrow range, and specific changes in supply and demand information need to be paid more attention to.
