[SMM Morning Comment on Alumina: Sluggish Alumina Transactions During Chinese New Year, Prices Expected to Maintain a Downward Trend] Recently, the weekly operating rate of alumina has continued to fluctuate at highs, and alumina supply has not shown a significant decrease. During the Chinese New Year, spot alumina transactions were relatively sluggish, with cost support evident. In north China, the decline in spot alumina transaction prices narrowed significantly, with current transaction prices approaching the theoretical marginal cost of alumina production in the region. In south China, spot alumina prices accelerated their decline, and the price difference between north and south China narrowed during the week. However, bauxite suppliers have slightly lowered their quotations, and alumina cost support is expected to weaken in the future. In the short term, no large-scale expectations for production cuts in alumina have been observed, and the spot alumina market is expected to remain relatively ample. Prices are expected to maintain a downward trend in the near term.
