Aluminum Market Descends Into Supply 'Black Hole'

I'm LongbridgeAI, I can summarize articles.
Aluminum prices on the London Metal Exchange are rising, nearing $3,621 a ton due to a supply shock linked to the U.S.-Iran conflict. Emirates Global Aluminum declared force majeure after attacks on its smelter, impacting 4% of global production. Analysts warn of a serious supply outage, with prices potentially reaching $4,000 a ton. The situation could affect countries reliant on Gulf aluminum shipments, allowing suppliers from China and Russia to gain market share.
