      March 13: Hong Kong industry sources said on Tuesday the enterprises that have high aluminum stock were beating down the aluminum price as smelting enterprises raising output. If the Chinese aluminum price is below international standards, Chinese smelting enterprises would consider raising exports of aluminum.


    Aluminum inventories increased in February for the Lunar New Year holiday block the trade.


    But Aluminum stocks didn’t fell in eastern China, because smelting enterprises continue to supply aluminum for this region.


    The industry professionals believe that the aluminum ingots inventory in eastern part of China is at least 130,000 tons, and the inventory reached 10-12 million tons at the beginning of this month. These aluminum stocks include Shanghai Futures Exchange and other private aluminum stocks.


    But in Nanhai City, Guangdong Province, aluminum inventory dropped to 30,000-40,000 tons, 50,000 tons in early March. Due to a lack of railway operations, in the past few weeks the aluminum transport volume from China's Guangdong Province to the north reduce a little.

      In Shanghai Futures Exchange on Tuesday, the price of Futures Copper in May is 19,570 Yuan/ton, March at about 19,390/ ton. Shanghai offers cash for aluminum Tuesday 19,400 Yuan, Nanhai City 19,800 Yuan, Henan quoted at 19,300 Yuan/ton. This price is still higher than export prices, and the production costs of per ton are higher than many smelting enterprises by 3,000 Yuan. Source:
