Report summary
For much of this year, global metallurgical coal has drifted behind a high-flying steel market, while China’s ban on Australian coal continues to bifurcate the market. But, it is worth remembering that the travails of today’s market are but one small chapter in the long story of the metallurgical coal trade. Urbanisation, industrialisation and decarbonisation will dominate market themes over the next 30 years.
