2012年10月17日,全球矿业巨头必和必拓(BHP)公布季度运营报告称,在截至9月底的公司第一财季里,公司铁矿石产量同比小幅上升1%至3977万t,环比计算则下滑3%,该产量符合市场普遍预期。在此前一日,另一矿业巨头力拓(RioTinto)则宣布,今年第三季度公司铁矿石产量同比增长5%至6700万t,产量高于市场预期。两家公司均维持全年的铁矿石产量预期不变。此前,关于中国经济增速放缓的担忧和铁矿石去库存化进程导致全球铁矿石价格一路跳水,矿企经营前景黯淡。但随着中国经济触底反弹的预期逐步升温,矿企开始预计中国因素将重新成为提振铁矿石市场的主要因素。
On October 17, 2012, global mining giant BHP Billiton (BHP) reported quarterly operating results. In the first quarter of the company as of the end of September, its iron ore output edged up by 1% YoY to 39.77m t, Down 3%, the output in line with the market generally expected. On the previous day, another mining giant, Rio Tinto, announced that its iron ore production in the third quarter of 2007 increased 5% YoY to 67 million t, higher than market expectations. Both companies maintain their full-year output forecast for iron ore unchanged. Earlier, concerns about the slowdown in China’s economic growth and the de-stocking of iron ore led to global iron ore prices diving all the way and the prospect of mining enterprises was bleak. However, with the expected gradual warming of the Chinese economy bottoming out, the mining sector started to expect that the Chinese factor will once again be the main factor in boosting the iron ore market.
