Iron Ore Prices Expected to Bottom Out Amid Mixed Fundamentals

게시됨: Mar 7, 2025 09:57
According to the SMM imported ore cost-profit table, the profit of imported ore remained basically flat; the inventory of the five major steel products shifted from an increase to a decrease, while downstream demand continued to rebound. This is bullish for ferrous metals. However, the continuous discussions on crude steel production cuts, further detailed to several major producing provinces, have put pressure on ore prices, making the rebound struggle. Nonetheless, the short-term actual impact is limited. Considering that pig iron production is expected to see a sustained increase after the short-term environmental protection-driven production restrictions end, there will be strong support for ore prices. It is expected that ore prices may bottom out in the short term, and the profit of imported ore is anticipated to have some room for upward movement.
