The seaborne iron ore market saw a price uptick last week on the support of a stronger steel market and a bullish market sentiment. S&P Global Platts assessed the 62% Fe Iron Ore Index (IODEX) at $68.75/dry mt CFR North China Friday, up $1.25/dmt from a week earlier, despite being down by $0.65/dmt day on day. The news last week that the Chinese government will invest over Yuan 800 billion in infrastructure construction in 2018 boosted market sentiment to some extent as some participants believe this move will stimulate more steel demand in the near future.
