Platts to align China alumina, ADC12 publishing schedule to Singapore calendar

Following market consultation, Platts, part of S&P Global Commodity Insights, will be aligning the publishing schedule of its daily Alumina Ex-Works China (MMXCY00) and weekly Aluminum ADC12 Ex-Works China (AAVSI02) price assessments with the Singapore holiday calendar, effective January 2024.

The assessments are currently published according to both the Singapore and China holiday calendars.

The following symbols will be impacted by the change:

DESCRIPTION SYMBOL WEEKLY AVERAGE MONTHLY AVERAGE YEARLY AVERAGE
China Alumina Ex-Works Yuan/mt MMXCY00 MMXCY04 MMXCY03
China Alumina Ex-Works $/mt MMXWC00 MMXWC04 MMXWC03 MMXWC16
Aluminum ADC12 Ex-Works China Yuan/mt AAVSI02 AAVSI13
Aluminum ADC12 Ex-Works China AAVSI00 AAVSI03 AAVSI16
