【SMM Early Review of Alumina: Fundamentals Remain Unchanged, Spot Prices Fluctuate at High Levels under Tight Supply-Demand Balance】There were a small number of transactions in the domestic spot market on Tuesday, with downstream rigid demand driving most of the purchases and the transaction focus continuing to shift upward. Domestic alumina producers have recently implemented both production cuts and restarts, and before the resumption of production at domestic mines in large batches, short-term supply may be difficult to increase significantly. On the demand side, according to SMM research, domestic electrolytic aluminum operating capacity will continue to increase in May, mainly due to the steady recovery of power supply in Yunnan and the steady resumption of remaining production capacity. SMM expects that Yunnan will have 350,000 tons/year of production capacity in May, and there are no significant changes expected in other regions. Therefore, SMM predicts that the tight supply-demand balance in the domestic alumina market will continue in the short term, and spot prices may remain high and volatile. Follow-up focus should be on the progress of production resumption in enterprises in Shanxi and Henan, as well as the downstream procurement rhythm.
