Aluminum Records Best Month in Two Years as War Roils Supplies

Aluminum registered its best month in nearly two years as the Middle East war disrupted supplies and damaged local production facilities, tightening the global market.

The lightweight metal advanced toward $3,500 a ton in London, translating into a monthly gain of 10.4%. That’s the most since April 2024, and contrasts with a broader downtrend for metals in March.
