On the macro level, the US debt ceiling negotiations have dragged on, exacerbating market panic and macro uncertainties. On fundamentals, end-user consumption is still recovering, but aluminium market is still oversupplied. Due to decline prebaked anode and coal prices, aluminium prices have no cost support. Aluminium prices may face downside risks due to headwinds from macro and fundamentals.
