Group 1: Investment Rating - No investment rating for the industry is provided in the report Group 2: Core View - On Friday, iron ore prices declined both during the day and in the night session. Although iron ore inventory continued to rise and approached 180 million tons, the inventory pressure was expected to be acceptable and would not drive the price down. The rigid demand for iron ore was unlikely to increase as the change in molten iron production was minimal approaching the holiday. It is expected that the lower limit of 750 for the iron ore futures main contract before the holiday would still serve as strong support. Traders were advised to hold light positions or be out of the market approaching the holiday [1] Group 3: Summary by Directory Market Review - Iron ore prices declined on Friday and in the night session [1] Important Information - The China National Machinery Industry Federation predicted that the growth rate of the main indicators of the machinery industry in 2026 would be around 5.5% [1] - The global manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) in January 2026 was 51%, up 1.5 percentage points from the previous month [1] - The China Construction Machinery Association reported that the operating rate of excavators in China in January 2026 was 48.6% [1] - Last week, the total inventory of imported iron ore at steel mills across the country was 103.1664 million tons, a week - on - week increase of 3.4805 million tons.
