[SMM Morning Comment on Alumina: Spot Alumina Prices Supported by High Spot Transactions, Bulls Enter the Market] Fundamentally, overseas spot alumina transactions hit new highs, providing further support to alumina prices, and bulls re-entered the futures market. Domestically, the weekly operating rate of alumina remained largely stable, and the operating capacity of aluminum also showed no significant changes for the time being. Both alumina supply and demand were largely stable this week. However, according to an SMM survey, some aluminum plants in south-west China are expected to undergo maintenance in the coming months, which may slightly reduce alumina demand and ease the tight spot supply situation. Overall, alumina inventory at aluminum plants in north-west China has not yet reached the levels typically seen after winter stockpiling in previous years, indicating that stocking demand may persist. However, high spot alumina prices have led to significant downstream resistance. In the short term, spot prices are expected to fluctuate at high levels. Moving forward, it is necessary to continuously monitor the profitability of aluminum plants and the scheduling of maintenance plans.
