[SMM Aluminum Alloy Daily Review] The ADC12 market overall remained stable. At present, both the cost side and the demand side lacked significant changes; fluctuations in aluminum prices and aluminum scrap raw material prices were limited, providing relatively steady support for and impetus to ADC12 prices. The demand side was still at the tail end of the off-season, downstream procurement pace was generally slow, and the market had yet to form a clear restocking driver.
