Alumina Prices in North China will Continue to Outperform Southern Market

SHANGHAI, Feb 27 (SMM) - The domestic alumina market will somehow be in a stalemate before the aluminium output cuts in Yunnan are completed. Aluminium smelters will rely on their long-term orders before spot alumina prices go down, while tight supply in north China will discourage sellers from cutting their offers. It is expected that alumina prices in north China will remain stable while those in the south will be vulnerable to decline this week.
