<p><br />The YoY comparison of the North American production shows a drop of 9.0 per cent from the July 2015 rate of 4,404,055 tonnes. The actual North American production was 2,365,747 metric tonnes through the first seven months of 2016. With the drop in aluminium inventory in China and the rest of the world and the rise in LME aluminium price, the month of July brought some positivity to the North American market.</p>
