Coal prices bottomed out after ARA saw a US$20/t drop within only two weeks and hit US$51/t, a three-year low. The collapse was significant enough to pull Newcastle benchmark down from the high US$90s to the low US$70s. What's behind the collapse? Is the recovery temporary? What are the risks ahead?
