Domestically, positive economic signs emerge as the central bank promotes counter-cyclical adjustments and reasonable credit growth. The National Development and Reform Commission plans new reserve strategies. Internationally, stability remains despite the Red Sea crisis adding uncertainty. Aluminum supply is stable in China, but northern winter weather pressures transport, requiring focus on domestic aluminium deliveries. Demand may drop as the off-season nears and year-end fund withdrawals by businesses reduce restocking interest, likely slowing the decrease in aluminium inventories, which should remain low, supporting prices.
