    In terms of inventory, the latest inventory of LME aluminum was 1164975 tons, down 12,275 tons from the previous trading day, and the aluminum warehouse receipt of the previous period was 253933 tons, down 6,662 tons
    from the previous trading day.

    In terms of spot, the Shanghai transaction price is between 14160-14180 yuan / ton, the price is more than 40 yuan / ton from the previous day, the monthly premium is 10~20 yuan / ton, Wuxi spot transaction is between 14160-14180 yuan / ton, Hangzhou transaction price is between
    14220-14240 yuan / ton.
    The market has sufficient supply, although the holders are active in shipments, but due to the suspension of procurement by a large household near the end of the month, the market is slightly oversupplied, the actual transaction price is gradually falling, and the inquiry and quotation between traders are active
    .
    The enthusiasm of downstream receiving goods has not been significantly improved, and the procurement is flat
    .

    In terms of news, Chifeng Qihui Aluminum Development Co.
    , Ltd.
    plans to build an alumina project
    in Malin Industrial Park, Chifeng City.
    With a total investment of 17 billion yuan and a construction scale of 6.
    5 million tons/year of alumina, the project uses imported bauxite as the main raw material to produce metallurgical-grade sand-like alumina
    by Bayer method.
    Three low-temperature production lines, two high-temperature production lines, single line capacity of 1.
    3 million tons/year, the project includes alumina production equipment and public auxiliary facilities
    .
    After completion, it will become the world's most technologically advanced and largest single alumina enterprise, and will become a landmark project
    in the global aluminum industry.

    Logic: The impact of environmental protection events on alumina supply gradually faded, alumina prices began to fall, and in the context of the undercurrent of trade disputes, the decline in raw material prices weighed on
    aluminum prices.
    The raw material end of alumina runs at a high level, but still erodes the profits of the electrolytic aluminum industry, the process of electrolytic aluminum resumption is slow, and the production capacity is still lower than the same period last year, and the production growth rate from January to April is only 1%, which inhibits the depth of the aluminum price pullback, which is expected to be around
    14100.
