Correction to rationale of aluminium 6063 extrusion billet premium, ddp Spain

Fastmarkets has corrected the rationale for its MB-AL-0299 aluminium 6063 extrusion billet premium, ddp Spain that was published incorrectly on Friday January 23.

One deal for small tonnage was reported as an offer for small tonnage in error.

The affected lines in the rationale were updated to:

A deal for small tonnage was reported at $510/t, a second and a third at $520/t and a fourth and a fifth at $530/t.

An offer for undisclosed tonnage was reported at $495-510/t and a second at $520/t.

The following line was also added:

The low end of an offer reported at $495-510/t was not reflected in the assessment, due to a lack of details provided.

The published price is unaffected by this change.

This price is part of the Fastmarkets base metals package.
