Today, aluminum prices resumed their upward trend, and secondary aluminum market quotes showed slight divergence. Some manufacturers actively raised prices by 100 yuan/mt due to high costs and low inventory, while others indicated that transactions were slowing as Chinese New Year approached, leading to low sentiment for price adjustments before the holiday. Recently, as upstream and downstream sectors gradually enter the holiday period, secondary aluminum alloy prices are expected to see narrow fluctuations before the holiday.
