PRICING NOTICE: Correction to Shanghai bonded aluminium stocks assessment

Fastmarkets has corrected its monthly assessment of Shanghai bonded aluminium stocks, which was published incorrectly on Friday February 26 due to a reporter error.

The assessment should have been 20,000-22,000 tonnes, not 12,000-13,000 tonnes as it had previously appeared, the latter being the month-on-month change rather than the monthly total.

This has now been corrected in Fastmarkets’ pricing database, MinD.

For more information or to provide feedback on this correction notice, or if you would like to provide price information by becoming a data submitter, please contact Hui Li by email at: pricing@fastmarkets.com. Please add the subject heading ‘FAO: Hui Li re: Fastmarkets aluminium bonded stocks.’
