Equirus Securities Analysis · Equirus Securities · 13 Jul 2026
“Bearish on the Non-Ferrous sector, specifically aluminium, due to a sharp correction in LME aluminium prices. This, combined with faster capacity restarts in West Asia and fresh Indonesian supply, is expected to keep prices under pressure, posing risks to earnings.”
Published mid-session at 11:36 IST. Tracking counts only prices printed after publication — the chart's dashed divider marks that moment; earlier prices never count toward entry or results.
