EDITED BY : DEBANJALI SENGUPTA 1MINS READ

According to the Shanghai Metals Market, social inventories of primary aluminium have built up by 20,000 tonnes week-on-week across eight major consumption areas in China, including SHFE warrants. Data shows inventories have come in at 1.14 million tonnes on March 10 compared to 1.12 million tonnes last Thursday, March 3.

Smelters and traders were in a rush to sell aluminium ingots due to growing aluminium prices, but downstream buyers showed a strong wait-and-watch sentiment.
