[SMM Aluminum Alloy Express] SMM data showed that China’s social inventory of cast aluminum alloy ingots fell to 24,000 mt, marking ten consecutive weeks of destocking, with a cumulative decline of 38,900 mt. However, the pace of destocking slowed significantly this week, recording a mere WoW drop of 200 mt, as warehouse withdrawal momentum further weakened. The market remains in the high-temperature off-season, with end-use demand staying weak. Meanwhile, the continued strengthening of futures drove a widening of the futures premium, and spread traders have started to make purchases on dips.

Three-month LME aluminium futures rose 1.3% to USD 3,263.50/tonne as renewed optimism over US-Iran peace talks weakened the US dollar and eased fears over global energy supplies and shipping disruptions; earlier hostilities had shut the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait, cutting off the Red Sea–Gulf of Aden route and forcing vessels to reroute around the Cape of Good Hope, lengthening transit times and pushing up freight and insurance costs, while LME aluminium inventories fell 5,675 tonnes to 238,350 tonnes, signaling tighter exchange stocks.
