- The London Metal Exchange's rare public probe into aluminum trading has not rattled prices as some thought it would, with cash prices holding a healthy premium to benchmark three-month prices all week. The continued premium has led to the belief that the LME investigation into "possible collusion between market participants" may come up empty. Traders said the LME system of daily delivery pricing has enabled a buyer to tie up metal for a specific delivery period, leaving little or none available for the open market during that time. Neil Banks, director of operations at the LME, said the same situation could occur for monthly delivery contracts, and that the exchange's daily pricing system helped transparency. Spot aluminum prices are about $40 above the key three-month LME price of $1,435, a margin that has held for most of the week, but down from the $70 gap reached last week. |
