Correction to aluminium P1020A premium, ddp Midwest US, rationale on April 16

Fastmarkets has corrected the rationale to its aluminium P1020A premium, ddp Midwest US, which was published incorrectly on Wednesday April 16.

The MB-AL-0020 Aluminium P1020A premium, ddp Midwest US, US cents/lb rationale mistakenly quoted the London Metal Exchange cash/three month spread to be trading at a $0.15 per tonne contango at the time of assessment on Wednesday. That is now corrected to read that it was trading at a $37 per tonne contango at the time of assessment.

Fastmarkets’ pricing database has been updated to reflect this change.

This price is part of the Fastmarkets’ aluminium base metals package.
