(distribution and movement of LME aluminium stocks in major warehouses worldwide: (in tons)

In April this year, the, Access World warehouse added 25 new LME registered warehouses at the port of Bassang, Malaysia. According to LME's notice, as of 29 April, all 25 warehouses had been listed and effective. As a result, LME aluminium stocks soared by 60650 tons to 1135300 tons, resulting in a fall in the price of aluminium. Then for a long time, Lun Al went to the reservoir in a smooth state, and today LME went to the warehouse by a large margin of 23550 tons. According to SMM, due to the large price difference in the Contango structure of LME, some holders are willing to write off warehouse receipts, pledge financing, monthly fixed income, and pull them from LME warehouses to non-LME warehouses in order to reduce warehousing costs. Because the storage fee charged by the LME warehouse is relatively higher.

【SMM Aluminum Flash News】Japan Earthquake Disrupts Auto Production, Adding Pressure to Aluminium and ADC12 Demand

A 7.1-magnitude earthquake in Japan's Kyushu region has prompted temporary production suspensions at plants operated by Toyota, Nissan, Honda and Daihatsu, while disruptions have also spread to auto-parts suppliers. The shutdowns come during Japan's seasonal automotive slowdown, further weakening spot demand for primary and secondary aluminium. Japan's ADC12 import assessment remained at US$3,000–3,050/t CFR on July 29, while buyer bids fell to US$2,800–2,900/t. Chinese suppliers were offering around US$3,020–3,050/t CFR, compared with US$3,100–3,200/t from Southeast Asian producers. Market participants expect Japanese ADC12 demand to remain weak through the rest of the quarter amid lower automotive production and fewer working days in August and September.
