The market currently lacks a clear directional trend, with both the market sentiment and spot prices remaining relatively mild, and the overall trend staying slightly upward. A key focus for the market is whether the demand for metallurgical-grade alumina will weaken relatively quickly. The primary concerns for sudden developments are centered around whether the supply and reserves of bauxite will impact the production of some alumina enterprises, and whether winter snowfalls or abnormal weather conditions will drive urgent procurement by certain low-inventory electrolytic aluminum enterprises.
