2 ALUMINUM (cont'd) Spain P1020A fca DP Turkey P1020A cif DUP Rotterdam P1020A in-whs DUP Spanish premium remains at its highest level since Feb 2016, on par with Italy. Market returns to a standstill with little liquidity. Tight supply, increased logistics costs supporting prices in region. Some say Spain was counting on Canadian imports that have not materialized in sizable tonnage. Market more focused on doing business for higher-purity material. Premium moves slightly higher, with some able to achieve $150/t in recent session. Section 232 action could pressure market in coming months, as Turkey is a large market for Russian and other metal in Asia. Sub-$100/t transactions possible after participants caved in to selling below that mark from facing persistent pressure from backwardated spreads throughout Feb. Bullish sentiment has returned with spreads firmly in contango, but no business above range reported. LME C/3M now at $14.75/t contango, still not wide enough to cover financing cost of holding metal. Market now sees carrying costs of $15-25/t per quarter depending on rent. Volatility expected for premium going forward as European market figures out likely impact of 10% blanket import tariff into the US announced March 1. Market expects more Section 232 developments Thursday when US President Donald Trump meets with aluminium industry executives.

Some participants sidelined, with impact of proposed tariffs still not clear. C/3M contango widens further but still not profitable to hold material. The 3% duty still difficult to meet in the well-supplied and illiquid market. A small Q2 deal heard in middle of range. LME stock flows remain busy. Stocks total million tonnes compared with million tonnes at the end of Inflows will continue to be influenced by nearby spreads - the cash/three-month spread has eased to a contango of $10.25/t from an average of $19.75/t backwardation across last week. A spot sale for 17.5 cents/lb reported by one supplier. Some sellers are offering for nearly 20 cents/lb, but many are simply waiting for a final decision from President Donald Trump on aluminium tariffs. Discounting on published premium has been reported due to the quiet spot mart and unabated competition from aluminium scrap. Brazil P1020A dlvd Brazil P1020A cif Brazilian premium has followed the US Midwest to some degree, but is not mimicking the same price increase. Hydro's potential 50% reduction of alumina production could push premium up.
