On the macro level, the 25 basis point rate hike by the Federal Reserve was in line with market expectations, but there is no expectation for interest rate cut within the year, thus the macro boost was not strong. On the fundamentals, the domestic supply side has recovered slightly. The improvement in downstream consumption has driven the rapid destocking of aluminium ingot stocks. The fundamentals are well supported, and the short-term aluminium prices are likely to fluctuate rangebound.
