Spot-futures traders tended to continuously widen the premium - for large-volume purchasing to exploit price spreads. Downstream factories, constrained by end-user orders and finished product inventories, remained reluctant to purchase. Ultimately, the actual transaction price range in the central China market centered around a premium -110-140 yuan/mt against the SHFE aluminum July contract.

Supported by rapid destocking, China’s aluminum price is unlikely to underperform LME aluminum. The SHFE and LME markets may see slight divergence, making a unilaterally weak trend difficult to sustain.
