Abstract

The article presents a forecast of the aluminum industry in North America in 2008. The aluminum industry is projected to weaken in 2008 due to the slowdown in the housing market and flat automotive production. Purchasing of aluminum mill products in North America is expected to decrease by 6% to 14 billions lbs. By mid-October 2007, world aluminum prices had decreased about 14 cents/lb.
