Positions increased by 13652 hands to 237442 hands, Shanghai aluminum index positions increased by 6778 hands to 666992 hands, mainly long positions. After the continuous negative fall, the market short sentiment was released, considering that the current consumption month-on-month ratio is still relatively stable, the return of electrolytic aluminum did not meet expectations, the probability of going to the warehouse continued, Shanghai aluminum recorded a certain rebound. But at the same time, the long-term electrolytic aluminum cost downward, supply increase and consumption sustainability of the unpredictable Shanghai aluminum rebound height is relatively limited, more will maintain the center of gravity down after the interval shock. It is recommended to add short-line band operation.

Indian Aluminum Industry Urges Exemption from RoDTEP Cuts Amid Global Trade Challenges
[SMM Aluminum Express News] The Aluminium Association of India (AAI), representing major domestic producers, has urged the government to exempt aluminum products from the recent 50% cut in RoDTEP (Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products) rates. Previously, aluminum exports qualified for ~3% RoDTEP benefits for Domestic Tariff Area (DTA) units and ~2.2% for SEZ units. AAI warned that the cut could strain exports amid rising global trade barriers (e.g., tariffs, CBAM), shrinking opportunities, and competition. It also called for 2026-27 RoDTEP rates to be set based on actual unrebated taxes borne by exporters, ensuring fair compensation for both DTA and SEZ units. This aims to maintain competitiveness for Indian aluminum in international markets.

[Short-Term Bullish Momentum Weakened, While Tight Supply Outside China Underpinned the Aluminum Market] Against the backdrop of continued tightening liquidity on the LME, LME aluminum still had upside momentum, with strong support from prices outside China, and the backwardation structure was likely to persist in the short term. China remained in a phase of high inventory and weak spot fundamentals, with upward momentum clearly weaker than that outside China. Amid divergent domestic and external drivers, the SHFE/LME price ratio was expected to continue weakening, and aluminum prices were expected to continue fluctuating at highs in the short term.
