EDITED BY : DEBANJALI SENGUPTA 2MINS READ

According to a Shanghai Metal Market report, an incessant growth in aluminium shipments and a constant rise in consumption in some of the major Chinese markets like Wuxi and Foshan drove a further downfall in primary aluminium inventory on May 14, 2018, to close at 2.15 million tonnes, as against 2.196 million tonnes on Thursday, May 10, 2018. This indicates that the inventory was down 42,000 tonnes from Thursday, May 10, 2018, and 56,000 tonnes from 2.21 tonnes on Monday, May 7, 2018.

Some of the major Chinese cities also witnessed a plunge in inventory, such as in Shanghai, the inventory fell to 452,000 tonnes; in Nanhai, Foshan, and Guangdong, it dipped to 377,000 tonnes and in Gongyi and Henan, it sank to 198,000 tonnes. More details are as follows:
