[SMM Central China Spot Aluminum Midday Review] On the first day after the holiday, aluminum prices rebounded. In the central China market, buying sentiment among downstream processing enterprises was low, but suppliers were active in selling and showed weak willingness to hold prices firm. Transactions were relatively muted, mostly from traders stockpiling. Ultimately, the actual transaction price range in the central China market hovered around a discount of 90-110 yuan/mt against the SHFE aluminum July contract.
