  • Jun 13, 2025, at 2:10 pm
According to SMM statistics, in terms of domestic aluminum billet inventory in two locations, the inventory of aluminum billet in Guangdong was 55,000 mt, and the inventory of aluminum billet in Wuxi was 20,800 mt, totaling 75,800 mt, up 600 mt MoM. Today, the center of aluminum prices remained high. To realize profits at elevated levels, suppliers significantly reduced their quotes in the aluminum billet market on Friday. Faced with the continuously rising base prices, downstream buyers maintained a wait-and-see attitude, and buying sentiment hit rock bottom. Suppliers further lowered their quotes during the trading session. In some regions, the phenomenon of "negative processing fees" even emerged for aluminum billets, indicating fierce market competition. Overall trading volume was unsatisfactory, with only some special-type aluminum billets achieving slight trading volume. Today, the quotes in the Foshan aluminum billet market were 130/180 yuan/mt, down 50 yuan/mt; the processing fees in the Wuxi market were 100/170 yuan/mt, down 100 yuan/mt; and the processing fees in the Nanchang region were 0/50 yuan/mt, down 80 yuan/mt.
