So that sunsirs sight was right! Www.pvinsights.com

Basically we are 1 week ahead of the average information curve. Just remember sunsir / 100ppi.com reports trade numbers as far as I can tell from the chinese translation. It is not sure that trade numbers will be converted into real transactions.

Still, $16.80 average is nothing to write home about. We need to get 4% rise every week for the next 4 weeks for the average poly price to get at $20 which IMO is the minimum by the end of March. BTW, what is interesting EnergyTrend only has poly up 0.44% but the average is $17 which is higher than PVinsights. Also multi-wafers are up almost 2% in EnergyTrend to average 87c while PVinsights has them at 85c or up only 0.24%. Have no idea why the differences between the 2. Also PVInsights has 2nd Grade poly higher than 1st grade poly on average. So why would anyone purchase 6N-8N poly at an average higher price when they can purchase 9N+ cheaper? http://pv.energytrend.com/ http://pvinsights.com/

Because 6-8N quality is not the only measurement of how well the polysilicon will perform in the module. N classicifation only tells whats the minimum amount of certain substances like copper boron etc. For example REC sells granular FBR that has many advantages in mono ingot production, basically the form factor allows recharge and overcharge and also around 40% more in the crucible. It gives many economical advantages, and since it also has low N in the substances that matter most it has also high efficiency. Basically what I am saying is that the N classification is not the only measurement of polysilicon quality.

Thanks eysteinh for a very clear explanation.
