Daily Review of waste Aluminum Price

Today, the price of aluminum fell 270 yuan / ton, and the price of all kinds of waste aluminum fell about 100 yuan / ton at the same time. The author believes that at present, the waste aluminum and recycled aluminum market should pay attention to the import of all kinds of recycled aluminum alloy ingots. Before the overseas epidemic situation is effectively controlled, the global demand for aluminum alloy ingots is being imported to China. According to the current number of overseas aluminum alloy ingots ordered, the import of aluminum alloy ingots will increase greatly by the end of May, and the import of aluminum alloy ingots may exceed 100000 tons in June. The huge import volume will directly exert pressure on the recycled casting alloy industry and directly seize its market share.
