Analysis review

In terms of cost

Before the mine fully resumed production, the supply of aluminum oxide would be restricted, which provided support for prices.

In terms of supply and demand

As of May 17th, the profitability level of aluminum plants was generally good. In the context of scarce raw material ores, aluminum plants had the ability to transfer some profits to aluminum oxide plants to ensure the stability of raw material supply. The 500,000 tons of electrolytic aluminum production capacity that had not resumed production in Yunnan also provided an expected increase in demand for aluminum oxide.

Market outlook

Due to the shortage of raw materials and the expected increase in demand, it is expected that the strength of aluminum oxide may continue until June.
