SMM, March 11:
Silicon Wafer
Prices: The market price for N-type 18X silicon wafers was 1.18-1.2 yuan/piece, while the price for 210R silicon wafers dropped to 1.3-1.35 yuan/piece. Silicon wafer prices remained temporarily stable. After the price adjustment by silicon wafer companies in March, actual transactions for 210R increased, while transactions for other sizes remained stable.
Production: The March silicon wafer production schedule has been released, with an expected MoM increase. Downstream demand remained strong, and tolling business by silicon wafer companies increased. Looking ahead to April, with the increase in Q2 quotas, production may see a significant MoM increase.
Inventory: Silicon wafer inventory pulled back slightly this week, mainly due to previous procurement and demand. Currently, 210R inventory is approaching a low level.
