It is normal for a large family to receive goods today, but on the whole, it is OK to buy and sell among traders. Downstream yesterday, mainly on-demand procurement, due to the excessive decline in aluminum prices, slightly hesitant to buy goods. The overall transaction in East China was mediocre yesterday.

News, electrolytic aluminum social inventory of 708000 tons, is still in a low position, combined with the recent electrolytic aluminum actual transaction situation is tight, it is expected that aluminum prices downside space is limited.

In the short term, we believe that excessive short-term growth is difficult to sustain, on the contrary, it is easy to trigger a correction. Aluminum prices have fallen in the past few days, we think this is not a bad thing, a timely fall can release the risk of prices rising too fast. Demand this year is much lower than last year, and aluminum prices may face the risk of a continued correction in the short term.
