Market Review - Iron ore futures for the 2509 contract fell by 0.56%, closing at 704 CNY/ton [1] Fundamental Summary - From June 2 to June 8, 2025, global iron ore shipments totaled 35.104 million tons, an increase of 794,000 tons week-on-week. Shipments from Australia and Brazil amounted to 29.194 million tons, up by 506,000 tons. Australian shipments reached 21.699 million tons, increasing by 2.493 million tons, with shipments to China at 18.92 million tons, up by 3.922 million tons. Brazilian shipments totaled 7.496 million tons, down by 1.987 million tons [2] - During the same period, China's 47 ports received 26.739 million tons of iron ore, an increase of 765,000 tons; 45 ports received 26.093 million tons, up by 728,000 tons; while the six northern ports received 13.836 million tons, down by 1.572 million tons. According to the General Administration of Customs, in the first five months, China imported 486 million tons of iron ore, a decrease of 5.2%, with an average import price of 707.2 CNY per ton, down by 16.4% [2] Institutional Perspectives - Zhengxin Futures noted that with increased shipments from Australia and Brazil, port arrivals have significantly rebounded, indicating an overall improvement in supply. However, iron and steel production has decreased for four consecutive weeks, with a mix of furnace maintenance and restarts leading to a continuous decline in demand. Port inventories are decreasing, and steel mill inventories are slightly down, with shipping volumes continuing to decline. Overall, supply is improving while demand is slowing, indicating a weak fundamental outlook for the industry, with potential for prices to decline further. The strategy suggested is to maintain a short position, increasing short positions on rebounds, and holding positions for the medium term [3] - Galaxy Futures highlighted that iron ore supply remains stable and is entering a seasonal peak, while demand from the steel industry is high but entering a low season. Overall market sentiment is declining, and iron ore prices are expected to fluctuate at the bottom [3]
