SMM Morning Review - 2011/12/5 Aluminum Market

SMM expects LME aluminum to fluctuate between USD 2,080-2,130/mt and the most active SHFE three-month aluminum contract between RMB 16,100-16,250/mt.

SHANGHAI, Dec. 5 (SMM) – The U.S. non-farm payroll data came out better-than-expected last Friday, helping the U.S. dollar index climbing 0.361 points to 78.665.

LME aluminum continued to move within a narrow range last Friday. The metal opened at USD 2,130/mt and closed near USD 2,120/mt. Due to the strengthening U.S. dollar and the lasting European debt crisis, positions of the metal increased 4,568 lots to 980,097 lots. The traded volume decreased 6,121 lots to 12,471 lots. The LME aluminum stock decreased 2,675 mt to 4,554,975 mt.

SMM expects LME aluminum to dip slightly today and fluctuate between USD 2,080-2,130/mt. The most active SHFE three-month aluminum contract is expected to fluctuate between RMB 16,100-16,250/mt lacking upward momentum. Downstream buyers of spot aluminum will remain cautious and deals therefore should stay light. As such, spot premiums over the SHFE current-month aluminum price are expected to narrow to RMB 0-30/mt.

Indonesia's Ban on Bauxite Exports Leads to Negative Effects, Surplus Bauxite Difficult to Consume

The implementation of Indonesia's ban on bauxite exports since June last year has led to bauxite surplus, brought challenges to consume domestically as the Indonesia's alumina plants have limited capacity. Ronald Sulistyanto, Chairman of the Indonesian Bauxite and Iron Ore Entrepreneurs Association (Asosiasi Pengusaha Bauksit dan Bijih Besi Indonesia - APB3I), highlighted the struggle to secure external investment for alumina plant projects, while some entrepreneurs are forced to cut costs or halt production. However, there is hope for relief through potential relaxation of the export ban policy. Efforts are underway to boost alumina production capacity, although challenges persist in addressing the surplus bauxite issue.
