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. The global supply/demand balance for primary aluminium is negative by 1.5 Mt in 2019 but is switching to surplus from 2020. As supply-demand fundamentals deteriorate, prices weaken and smelters are more likely to curtail loss making production from 2020.
