On the macro side, the Chinese government continues to voice to boost the economy, and it needs to continue to pay attention to the pace of overseas interest rate hikes. The basic domestic market is still in an oversupply pattern, but the hot weather in the southwest makes the market worry about the prospects of power supply in the southwest region. The cost of electrolytic aluminum has rebounded under the drive of alumina, which has brought certain support to aluminum prices. SMM believes that The game between bulls and bears will remain deadlocked, and Shanghai aluminum will continue to fluctuate in a narrow range.
