According to macro news, the number of confirmed cases abroad continues to increase this week. As of the 23rd, the number of confirmed cases worldwide exceeded 15.26 million, and the death toll exceeded 600000. However, while the number continues to rise, economic stimulus measures in various countries are still being introduced one after another, and some data from the United States, Canada and Europe and other countries are beginning to show a pick-up. In addition, tensions in Sino-US relations have risen recently, as the United States forcibly closed the Chinese consulate in Houston, China took countermeasures to crack down on the US consulate in Sichuan, and diplomatic friction led to a sharp devaluation of the RMB, while the dollar index continued to hit a new low. In addition, in the context of the high Shanghai-Lun ratio, China's imports of foreign aluminum and aluminum products increased significantly in June. Lun Aluminum is relatively strong this week under the influence of comprehensive factors, but the continued upward momentum is still insufficient. It is expected to continue to test the size of the upper space next week, or run between 1650-1720 US dollars / ton, it is necessary to guard against the impact of Sino-US diplomatic relations on the macro trading atmosphere.

Aluminium Bahrain is producing aluminium at around 80% of pre-Iran war levels, its CEO Ali Al Baqali told Reuters on Wednesday, exporting the metal through the Saudi Red Sea port of Jeddah and from Sohar in Oman. Bahrain's Alba, which describes itself as the world's biggest aluminium smelter on one site, shut down production lines 1, 2, and 3 after the outbreak of the war as the closure of the Strait of Hormuz disrupted supply chains. Its plant was then hit by an Iranian strike in late March, which the Alba CEO described as a "small, minor attack". "We got damages and we already repaired them," Al Baqali said on the sidelines of the Fastmarkets Aluminium Conference in Budapest, adding that Alba was covered by insurance.
