On the macro level, the Chinese government continues to stress efforts to boost the economy, and it is necessary to continue to pay attention to the pace of overseas interest rate hikes. Fundamentally, the domestic market is still in a pattern of oversupply, but the hot weather in the southwest China makes the market concerned about the prospect of power supply in the region. The cost of aluminum rebounded, driven by alumina, which brought some support to aluminum prices. SMM believes that the short-term SHFE aluminum may continue to fluctuate within a narrow range.
