Aluminum Alloy Futures and Spot Prices Decline Amid Weak Demand and Intense Competition
[SMM Aluminum Alloy Brief] Futures side, the aluminum alloy 2606 contract opened today at 23,660 yuan/mt, with the closing price before the midday session at 23,475 yuan/mt, down 185 yuan/mt from the previous settlement, a decline of 0.78%. Spot side, ADC12 market prices continued their downward trend today, with enterprises generally lowering prices. On one hand, weakening aluminum prices loosened cost support; on the other hand, downstream demand remained persistently weak, order release was limited, and increasing low-priced resources in the market further intensified price competition. Under the weak supply-demand dynamics, enterprises mostly resorted to passive price cuts to facilitate shipments, with limited willingness to hold prices firm.
