What moves the aluminum price
Aluminum is the most used metal after steel: packaging, cars, aircraft, construction and power lines. China smelts more than half of it.
Smelting is energy hungry, so aluminum tracks power and gas prices. This is the COMEX contract per metric ton; scrap trades below it.
