Huolin Gol Yongtai Aluminum Industry Accelerates 60,000 mt Annual Capacity Project
The project of Huolin Gol Yongtai Aluminum Industry for an annual capacity of 60,000 mt of aluminum alloy round casting ingots has been fully accelerated, with foundation construction now basically completed. The first production line is expected to begin equipment installation and commissioning within a week. The project, with a total investment of nearly 100 million yuan, focuses on the high-end aluminum semis niche market, featuring high-quality aluminum alloy bars and aluminum alloy ingots. These products can precisely meet the urgent demand for raw materials from downstream high-end manufacturing industries such as auto parts, electronics and electrical appliances, and precision hardware, effectively filling the supply gap in regional high-end aluminum semis capacity and solving the development challenge of low-end overcapacity and insufficient high-end capacity in the local aluminum industry.

[US-Iran Talks Ease, Pressuring LME Aluminum; SHFE Aluminum Destocking Support Limits Decline] In the absence of new macro bullish catalysts, SHFE aluminum tracked LME aluminum under pressure, but the decline was relatively contained by destocking in China. Going forward, close attention should be paid to: the progress of physical production resumptions at Middle Eastern aluminum enterprises after the Strait of Hormuz fully reopens for navigation; the trajectory of the US dollar after hawkish signals from the US Fed materialize and its transmission to commodities; and whether destocking in China continues to accelerate. Aluminum prices are expected to remain in the doldrums in the near term.
