ADC12 Prices Edge Lower, Market Awaits September Demand Pickup Amid Sideways Movement
[SMM Aluminum Alloy Daily Review] ADC12 market prices were mainly slightly lowered today, but the overall decline was relatively limited, reflecting that enterprises still hold certain support expectations on the cost side and are reluctant to make significant price concessions. On the demand side, downstream procurement overall maintained a just-in-time pace. Although some purchasing demand was released after prices pulled back, a clear restocking trend on dips has yet to form, and demand improvement in the traditional peak season remains relatively limited. Overall, ADC12 prices are expected to continue moving sideways in the short term, with focus on changes in raw material prices and whether September peak season demand can be further released.
