[SMM Aluminum Alloy Flash] This week, China's social inventory of cast aluminum alloy ingots rose to 25,500 mt, up 1,500 mt WoW, ending ten consecutive weeks of destocking and turning to inventory buildup. The market was still in the high-temperature off-season, with weak downstream demand and sluggish shipments; meanwhile, the spot-futures price spread weakened during the week and futures remained at a premium, boosting spot-futures traders' willingness to buy on dips and driving warehouse inflows higher.
