Fastmarkets has corrected the rationale for its MB-AL-0020 aluminium P1020A premium, ddp Midwest US, US cents/lb that was published incorrectly on Monday February 17.

The rationale was missing the backwardation data on Monday.

“The LME C/3M spread was trading at a $38.37/t backwardation at the time of assessment on Monday, compared to a $23.00/t backwardation on Friday.”
