Report Information - Report Title: Aluminum Daily Report [1] - Date: January 22, 2026 [2] - Research Team: Non-ferrous Metals Research Team [3] - Researchers: Yu Feifei, Zhang Ping, Peng Jinglin [3] Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Core Viewpoints - Overnight, the sharp decline of European and American stock markets led to a rise in market risk aversion, causing the aluminum price to drop to a minimum of 23,660 yuan/ton. However, during the domestic daytime, the market sentiment remained relatively high, and the aluminum price rebounded above 24,000 yuan. The main contract 2603 closed at 24,155 yuan, with a gain of 0.56%. The total open interest increased by 15,000 lots to 714,000 lots [7]. - The adjustment of aluminum price has driven the overall purchasing sentiment of downstream industries to warm up, but the overall attitude remains cautious. The spot premium is expected to continue to be under pressure. The premium in East China was -150 yuan, -250 yuan in Central China, and -115 yuan in South China [7]. - The prices of domestic and overseas ores continued to operate weakly at a low level. The oversupply pressure of alumina remained unchanged, and the price continued to decline [7]. - The supply side of electrolytic aluminum remained stable. The new electrolytic aluminum projects in China and Indonesia continued to increase production, but the short-term increment was limited. The high aluminum price still inhibited the terminal demand. However, benefiting from the demand for finished product inventory preparation as the Spring Festival approached, the demand side still had a certain degree of resilience. The continuous inventory accumulation of aluminum ingots put some pressure on the market [7]. - Currently, the aluminum price is still dominated by macro and capital factors. Due to the fluctuation of macro sentiment and the previous rapid rise, the aluminum price is expected to continue to adjust in the short term [7]. Summary by Directory 1. Market Review and Operation Suggestions - The aluminum price was affected by the sharp decline of European and American stock markets overnight, but rebounded during the domestic daytime.

The spot premium was under pressure [7]. - The prices of domestic and overseas ores and alumina continued to decline [7]. - The supply of electrolytic aluminum was stable, and the demand had some resilience.

Industry News - Nineteen air-conditioning enterprises and research institutions, including Midea, Haier, and Xiaomi, jointly launched the implementation work of the "aluminum replacing copper" series of standards, which triggered market discussions. Some brand stores said they would launch aluminum-made household air-conditioning products as early as 2026, while others had no such plan [8]. - Lizhong Group said that its production and operation had been stable in recent years, and the overall capacity utilization rate had gradually increased. The second phase of the 3.6 million ultra-lightweight aluminum alloy wheel project in its Mexican factory with a capacity of 1.8 million had been initially put into production. The third factory in Thailand with an annual production capacity of 3 million cast-rotated aluminum alloy wheels was expected to be put into production next year. The high-performance aluminum alloy new material projects newly built in Chongqing, Huaian, Changchun, Thailand and other places would be put into production successively from the fourth quarter of this year to next year [10]. - India's state-owned National Aluminium Company (Nalco) plans to start the mining of the Pottangi bauxite mine in Odisha in June 2026 to support the expansion of its integrated aluminum business. The company has awarded the development and operation rights of the mine to Dilip Buildcon Ltd.
