原文地址：Iron Ore Set for Weekly Gain on China Steel-Recovery Speculation
新闻日期：2024-09-13
中国钢铁需求开始恢复，铁矿石价格也随之上涨。
铁矿石期货已连续第三天上涨，达到新加坡约95美元/吨，并周线上涨超过3%。受此影响，矿商股价上扬，BHP集团有限公司和富瑞有限公司等在悉尼市场表现良好。
SDIC Essence Futures Co. 的分析师韩晶表示：“钢制品需求正在恢复，这有助于铁矿石价格的回升。”他还指出，“液态钢产量上周开始有所增加，主要是由于利润率略有提高。”
今年铁矿石价格已下跌近三分之一，成为主要矿石中表现最弱的一种。中国钢铁生产受到钢铁市场的冲击，导致过去几个月内亏损加速，而来自主要矿商的供应仍然充足。
铁矿石期货上涨0.8%，达到95.55美元/吨，在新加坡11:17时的价格为94.85美元/吨。在中国，人民币定价的铁矿石期货在大连市场上周有所上涨，而上海钢材价格也显著上升。
原文摘要：
headed for its third weekly gain in the past four on speculation Chinese demand may be showing early signs of improvement after a prolonged slump.Futures for the steelmaking staple rose for a third day, to around $95 a ton in Singapore, and were up more than 3% for the week. The uptick has helped boost miners’ shares, with , BHP Group Ltd. and Fortescue Ltd. all advancing in Sydney this week.“Demand is recovering for steel products, aiding a recovery in prices of raw material iron ore,” said Han Jing, an analyst at SDIC Essence Futures Co. “Molten-steel output finally started rising from last week after profitability improved a little bit.”Iron ore is still down by almost a third this year, making it one of the weakest-performing major . A crisis in , which dominates demand, has led to an acceleration in losses in the last couple of months, while supplies from major miners remained abundant. Industrial production data due this weekend — including for August — will give an additional read on recent conditions.Iron ore futures rose as much as 0.8% to $95.55 a ton, and traded at $94.85 as of 11:17 a.m. in Singapore. In China, yuan-priced iron ore futures were on course for a weekly gain in Dalian, while steel contacts have surged in Shanghai.
