SHANGHAI, May 15 (SMM) – Traded prices of spot aluminum in Shanghai were between RMB 15,960-15,990/mt on Tuesday, with premiums of RMB 0-20/mt over the SHFE current-month aluminum price.

Traded prices of spot aluminum in Wuxi were between RMB 15,980-16,000/mt and traded prices in Hangzhou were between RMB 15,980-16,000/mt. On the final trading day for the SHFE current-month aluminum contract, futures prices fell and dragged spot aluminum prices below RMB 16,000/mt.
