Iron Ore & Steel Outlook – Q4 2023

Iron ore prices remained elevated in Q3 2023 despite a struggling Chinese economy. Steel mills are expected to ramp up production during the peak construction season, but low consumer confidence is hampering property investment. Uncertainty around mandatory curbs will weigh on the outlook. Demand in China will continue to be the primary driver for iron prices. We expect prices to average $100/mt in Q4 2023, with downside risks due to potential China steel output cuts and an uncertain property sector outlook.
