Today ADC12 market quotes continued to rise overall, with the SMM ADC12 price up by 200 yuan/mt from the previous day to 24,000 yuan/mt. As spot aluminum prices and aluminum alloy futures rebounded consecutively, cost support strengthened further. Enterprises' enthusiasm for raising prices in tandem increased noticeably, and market sentiment recovered somewhat from the earlier period. On the demand side, downstream orders had yet to show significant improvement, and the overall operation remained stable. Some enterprises reported that order intake since July had changed little, with the market still dominated by just-in-time procurement.
