Further more, closely followed Christmas Day and New Year’s Day have kept most investors on the sidelines, thereby depressing transaction volumes. As such, SMM expects LME aluminum to move narrowly between USD 2,000-2,040/mt and SHFE aluminum for three-month delivery between RMB 15,800-15,900/mt. Due to weak demand, the spot market remains buyers’ market and spot discounts over the SHFE current-month aluminum price are expected to stay between RMB 10-30/mt.
