Stock Track | SOUTH32 Soars 5.09% Intraday as Goldman Raises Aluminum Forecast on Supply Disruptions
Stock Track
Mar 25
SOUTH32 LTD's stock price soared 5.09% during intraday trading on Wednesday, reflecting significant investor optimism.
The sharp rise appears linked to a revised commodity price outlook from Goldman Sachs, which raised its second-quarter aluminum price forecast to $3,200 per tonne from $3,100. The bank cited major supply disruptions, including reduced output at smelters in Qatar and Bahrain, a significant drop in Iranian production due to energy infrastructure damage, and the shutdown of the Mozal smelter in Mozambique. These factors are expected to create a tighter market and support higher aluminum prices, directly benefiting diversified miners like SOUTH32.
