Analysis-Aluminium producers in the US win from Trump's tariffs
LONDON (Reuters) -Century Aluminum, the largest primary aluminium producer in the U.S., and top recycler Matalco will be among the big winners from President Donald Trump's higher tariffs on imports of the metal as domestic prices surge, four industry sources said. However, some sector players are worried that Trump's move from June 4 to hike the tariffs to 50%, from 25%, could push prices so high that demand starts to weaken. Higher revenues for U.S. aluminium producers and recyclers are expected mainly due to the way the market prices the metal key for construction, power and packaging industries.
