[SMM Aluminum Express News] Alcoa Corp. (NYSE: AA), the largest U.S. aluminum producer, is seeing a surge in new orders and buyer inquiries as Gulf states (Middle East) smelters curtail output due to ongoing regional disruptions. In a Bloomberg report (March 17, 2026), CFO Molly Beerman told the JPMorgan Chase conference that Alcoa is experiencing an "uptick in orders" from customers who previously sourced from Middle Eastern producers. This includes additional spot purchases and increased inquiries for Q2 and H2 2026, positioning Alcoa to capture redirected demand.
