Market and global environment
----- End of picture text -----

Near term volatility will persist whilst long term growth is driven by emerging regions ...

  • World markets have remained uncertain since 2008 as Eurozone, Japan and the USA struggle to recover from the GFC

  • Emerging regions which include China and India stimulate the resources industry as these nations relentlessly pursue industrialisation and urbanisation with China’s and India’s GDP growth at 8%

  • Growth of developing regions is exceeding the rate of developed regions

  • Incomes of developing regions is growing which stimulates consumption of commodities driving growth in long term demand for minerals, resources and energy

  • Demand from developing nations has continued, however, supply has lagged analysts forecasts

  • Movement to transparent market clearing pricing mechanisms

  • Underlying strength in the iron ore price with recent softness reflecting inventory build during global market uncertainty

  • Restocking and cost of Chinese domestic iron ore production likely to place a floor on the decline in prices
