Aluminium billet inventories in China drop by 12,100 tonnes to 202,300 tonnes

EDITED BY : 1MINS READ

On Thursday, February 16, China’s aluminium billet inventory slumped by 12,100 tonnes from 214,400 tonnes recorded the previous week. The inventory as of today settled at 202,300 tonnes. After earlier halting the increasing trend, there were two weeks of fall. Each of the five major markets saw a decline in inventory due to a significant outflow of goods from warehouses. Production of aluminium billets has essentially been restored to normal levels, and vast quantities of billets have flooded the market in east China, causing havoc with prices.
