Secondary Aluminum Alloy Prices Drop by 100 Yuan/mt, Market Trading Stable Amid High Scrap Costs

[SMM Secondary Aluminum Alloy Daily Review] Secondary aluminum alloy market quotations were generally lowered by 100 yuan/mt today. Affected by the pullback in futures, most enterprises lowered their quotations accordingly. However, as aluminum scrap raw material prices remained at a relatively high level, the cost side provided some support for ADC12 prices, and enterprises were generally restrained in the extent of their price adjustments. Demand side, downstream procurement still mainly met immediate needs, and no concentrated restocking driven by the price pullback had yet emerged. Wait-and-see sentiment in the market increased somewhat, and overall trading remained relatively stable.
