How coronavirus altered the path of iron ore and steel markets
10th - 11th June 2020
The coronavirus crisis has caused turmoil in steel markets, with Europe, Japan, the US and India expected to experience double digit declines in steel demand. Meanwhile China's steel industry continues to power ahead.
Remarkably, iron ore prices have risen on the back of China's growth and ongoing supply problems.
