[Aluminum prices fluctuate rangebound downward, secondary aluminum prices remain stable] Today, the SMM A00 aluminum price decreased by 40 yuan/mt from the previous trading day to 20,230 yuan/mt. The domestic SMM ADC12 price remained within the range of 20,300-20,500 yuan/mt. In the import market, overseas ADC12 quotes were mostly in the range of $2,400-2,410/mt, with actual transaction prices in some regions falling below $2,400/mt. The real-time loss for imported ADC12 remained around 300 yuan/mt. Today, aluminum prices continued to decline slightly from last Friday, and the secondary aluminum market maintained a stable operation pattern. Under the dual influence of cost support and the off-season demand, ADC12 prices are in a dilemma, with short-term prices expected to fluctuate rangebound.

Note: Import profits are real-time profits.
