Abstract
One of the exits for a U.S. recession is... China. In fact, China' s continuing
demand for metals for its economic growth is buffering the impact of a U.S.
recession on mining producers. China' s economy expanded last year at its
strongest pace in 13 years, marking the fifth consecutive year of double-digit
growth. A U.S. recession only has a minimal impact on China' s demand for metal.
Aluminum is the third-best performing industrial metal in the world.
Aluminum price is rising because of a supply shortage. High demand growth for
primary alumina in China will be a key support for prices going forward.
The supply is tight and the demand is higher than ever. China is the world' s
largest aluminum producer but there is a scarcity because of snowstorms in
China in 2008. On the demand side, China has become the world' s largest
aluminum products maker and consumer. Chinese demand this year will be about
14.9 million tons, a 24 percent rise from 2007. The country will account for
35% of total demand by 2020 from 13% in 2000.
