According to Shanghai Metals Market, social inventories of primary aluminium across eight major consumption areas in China, including SHFE warrants, grew 13.4 per cent over a week-long Chinese New Year Holiday, as on today, February 11. Compared to 1.378 million tonnes as of January 31, the primary aluminium inventories today came in at 1.562 million tonnes, up 184,000 tonnes.

Over the same period, stocks in Wuxi and Hangzhou grew from 513,000 tonnes to 578,000 tonnes, up 13 per cent while that in Shanghai rose from 299,000 tonnes to 310,000 tonnes, up about 4 per cent.

This growth in primary aluminium inventories is attributable to poor spot aluminium transactions across China, especially eastern and southern markets in the morning today, as downstream consumers have not returned from the holidays.
