As quoted in the market news,
The 62% Fe benchmark import price including freight and insurance at the port of Tinjian tracked by The SteelIndex added $3.30 or 4.9% to $71.20 a tonne, the highest since November 18.
Iron ore’s resurgence is thanks to stimulus measures announced by the People’s Bank of China over the weekend that is set to free up some $800 billion in funds available for loans at commercial banks.
