A00 aluminium ingot price drops in China due to steady consumption and limited supplies to inventories

EDITED BY : DEBANJALI SENGUPTA 2MINS READ

According to Shanghai Metals Market, primary aluminium inventories across major consumption areas in China continued to decline over the weekend ended on August 20, 2018. Stocks, including SHFE warrants, shrank around 20,000 tonnes from last Thursday, August 16, to stand at 1.74 million tonnes. The fall could be attributed to the limited arrivals to all the warehouses and steady downstream purchases. Hence, it indicates that there has been a balance maintained between supply and consumption over the weekend in the market.

Compared to last Thursday, inventory in Wuxi and Jiangsu dropped 9000 tonnes to stand at 739,000 tonnes today, while Nanhai and Guangdong, and Gongyi and Henan recorded fall by 3000 tonnes and 8000 tonnes to stand at 237,000 tonnes and 148,000, respectively. For more details, refer to the chart below.
