On the fundamental front, EGA and Bahrain Aluminium maintain positive expectations for resuming production, while new projects in Indonesia are significantly constrained by power supply limitations. Domestically, preliminary estimates for September indicate that inventory reduction will remain at a narrow pace due to a lack of new ingot production. The price difference between refined and scrap aluminum has widened slightly recently, but the increase is limited. Scrap aluminum circulation remains sluggish in some provinces, and the reverse substitution of aluminum ingots for scrap aluminum continues, but attention should be paid to the subsequent marginal reduction trend. The tight supply of tax-inclusive scrap aluminum remains unchanged, with prices continuing to run at high levels, providing strong cost support for aluminum alloys; however, downstream acceptance of high prices is limited, hindering cost transmission and preventing price increases from penetrating smoothly to end users. Downstream die-casting purchases are still mainly small orders for immediate needs, and the current market presents a balance between cost support and weak demand. Aluminum ingot inventories remain at a low point for the year. Overall, supporting factors outweigh the positive factors, and aluminum prices may trend slightly higher in the short term. The spot market saw limited changes today, with aluminum prices rising further. Downstream buyers maintained only essential purchases, market circulation was moderate, and inventory reduction provided strong support for the spot premium. East China aluminum ingots maintained a premium of around 10 yuan over the September contract today.Israel Defense Forces: Earlier today, IDF forces operating in the northern Gaza Strip spotted a terrorist who had crossed the Yellow Line and was approaching the troops in a manner posing a direct threat.
