Iron ore price bounces back after sharp fall

According to Fastmarkets MB, benchmark 62% Fe fines imported into Northern China (CFR Qingdao) were changing hands for $152.65 a tonne, up nearly 2% from Tuesday’s trade.

Iron ore reached its highest level since September 2011 in mid-January, but has since declined 12% on expectations of normalizing supply from Vale, the world’s top producer, and a cooldown in record-setting demand from China.
Credit Suisse, in a note quoted by Barron’s, lifted its forecast for iron ore during the first half of the year to $170 a tonne, from a lowly $110 before and also adjusted upwards its expectations for the next three years.
Morgan Stanley this week outlined the “plausible scenario” of $165-plus over the next three years, according to a Bloomberg report.
That’s in contrast to Australia & New Zealand Banking Group, which predicted a fall back to the $100 a tonne level by the end of the year.
