    Market research: High inflation and good retail sales data boosted the market's speculation about the Fed's early interest rate hike, and the US index continued to suppress
    Shanghai aluminum strongly.
    Fundamentals, the monthly production of primary aluminum is expected to increase month-on-month, and the supply side is expected to remain tight before the end of the heating season; However, the price of alumina thermal coal has continued to decline recently, and the cost support of the aluminum market has been weakening
    .
    At the same time, the latest data show that electrolytic aluminum has accumulated again, and the trend of coal is weak, the atmosphere of industrial products is pessimistic, and the pressure above aluminum prices is obvious
    .
    The recent round of aluminum price decline is mainly driven by the reversal of commodity sentiment and the backhand short selling of funds, the short-term trend is weak, and the timing of policy and market sentiment repair still needs to be seen
