Despite the recent surge in spot trading activity, the impact on overall market supply and liquidity has been minimal. Yesterday’s results from transactions between industrial traders and aluminum smelters indicate that large-scale spot trading is still experiencing significant price reductions. The renminbi (RMB) has maintained a slight appreciation, influenced by the Federal Reserve’s 25 basis point interest rate cut. Based on previous overseas transactions, the cost of alumina imports has decreased slightly.
