Published: Jun 3, 2026 13:29
[SMM Aluminum Alloy News Flash] Currently, ex-China ADC12 prices fluctuated at highs of $3,360-3,460/mt. Thanks to strengthening domestic prices, the inversion of the price spread between domestic and overseas markets eased somewhat. The current theoretical real-time loss narrowed to around 3,100 yuan/mt, but the loss remained significant, and the theoretical import window remained closed.
