Report summary
The aluminium market service short term outlook (STO) is published monthly and provides a forecast of aluminium supply and demand fundamentals over the next two-years. For a short month, February packed in a lot of developments. Despite the China market winding down for the New Year, large single day LME stock increases in Asian warehouses, the emergence of a large cash to 3 month backwardation and tougher than expected recommendations from the Section 232 investigations on aluminium imports by the US Department of Commerce kept the market on edge.
