1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. 2. Core Views of the Report Alumina - The alumina main contract fluctuates strongly, with increasing open interest, spot discount, and weakening basis. The raw material side shows a seasonal recovery in bauxite mining in Guinea, but due to geopolitical conflicts, shipping capacity decreases and shipping costs rise, leading to only a small decline in bauxite prices. On the supply side, smelters have gradually resumed work, with the industry operating at a relatively high level, and the domestic alumina supply remains high, with a long - term oversupply. On the demand side, the geopolitical disputes in the Middle East limit electrolytic aluminum production capacity in the region, affecting global supply and reducing alumina demand in the Middle East, which may impact domestic export demand. Domestically, the replacement of electrolytic aluminum production capacity gradually ramps up, and the demand for alumina is stable. Overall, the alumina fundamentals may be in a stage of oversupply and stable demand. Technically, the 60 - minute MACD shows that the double lines are above the 0 - axis, and the green bars are expanding. The view is to trade with a light position in a volatile manner, paying attention to controlling the rhythm and trading risks [2]. Electrolytic Aluminum - The Shanghai aluminum main contract fluctuates, with increasing open interest, spot discount, and strengthening basis. On the raw material side, alumina prices rise due to geopolitical factors, while aluminum prices remain strong, and aluminum smelters still have good profit margins. On the supply side, the capacity replacement projects of electrolytic aluminum plants are gradually put into production, and with good smelting profits, the upstream operation is expected to remain at a high level, and the domestic electrolytic aluminum supply is stable. On the demand side, the downstream operation has improved during the week, but high aluminum prices still suppress consumption continuity. Downstream aluminum processing enterprises mostly adopt a strategy of buying on dips, the market demand has slightly recovered, the downstream inventory has decreased, and the accumulation rate of electrolytic aluminum social inventory has slowed down. Overall, the fundamentals of Shanghai aluminum may be in a stage of stable supply and slightly recovering demand. In terms of options, the call - put ratio of at - the - money option positions is 1.65, a month - on - month increase of 0.0254, indicating a bullish sentiment in the options market, and the implied volatility has slightly increased. Technically, the 60 - minute MACD shows that the double lines are below the 0 - axis, and the green bars are slightly converging. The view is to conduct short - term long trading with a light position on dips, paying attention to controlling the rhythm and trading risks [2]. Cast Aluminum - The cast aluminum main contract fluctuates downward, with decreasing open interest, spot premium, and strengthening basis. On the supply side, the price of scrap aluminum fluctuates upward with aluminum prices. Scrap aluminum holders mostly adopt a strategy of selling at high prices. Since recycled aluminum enterprises were actively purchasing in the early stage, they currently adopt a strategy of purchasing on demand, resulting in a mediocre performance in the scrap aluminum spot market. In terms of production, cast aluminum production dropped significantly in February and is expected to rebound significantly after resuming work in March, so the domestic cast aluminum alloy supply will increase. On the demand side, downstream die - casting plants, having replenished their inventories in the early stage, currently also adopt a strategy of purchasing on a just - in - time basis and mostly take a wait - and - see attitude, resulting in a dull trading performance in the cast aluminum alloy spot market. Overall, the fundamentals of cast aluminum alloy may be in a stage of increasing supply and mediocre demand. Technically, the 60 - minute MACD shows that the double lines are below the 0 - axis, and the green bars are slightly converging. The view is to conduct short - term long trading with a light position on dips, paying attention to controlling the rhythm and trading risks [2]. 3.
