SMM aluminum alloy ADC12 price market on July 8th

Aluminum prices fell 100 yuan / ton today, the recent increase in imports of A00 aluminum makes the spot market weak. In terms of scrap aluminum, the price of cooked aluminum in inland areas is relatively small, and the price in coastal areas is greatly affected by various imports. Although the quotation has not been lowered, the actual willingness to ship has increased, and there are also certain price concessions. Raw aluminum is due to the poor demand for downstream die-casting aluminum alloy ingots, the price continues to maintain stability. The new standard of imported waste aluminum has not yet heard the sound of landing, and we still need to continue to wait. At present, the price of overseas zorba (95 metal volume, 2% copper crushed raw aluminum) Malaysia CIF is 970 US dollars / ton. after preliminary treatment, the price is also around 1100 US dollars / ton, which is about 1500 yuan / ton lower than the domestic raw aluminum tax price. If imports are liberalized, domestic shocks are inevitable, and all parties remain on the sidelines for imported waste aluminum.
