• Iron ore spot markets pushed higher again on Friday, adding to strong gains seen earlier in the week.
• Chinese rebar inventories fell last week while utilisation rates of blast furnaces at steel mills hit the highest level since mid July.
• Chinese iron ore imports were relatively unchanged in August compared to the levels of July.

Iron ore spot markets continued to push higher on Friday, adding to gains seen earlier in the week.
Firmer steel prices once again helped to bolster sentiment.
According to Metal Bulletin, the spot price for benchmark 62% fines rose 0.1% to $68.48 a tonne, leaving it at the highest level since August 13.
It’s now risen in each of the past four sessions, adding 3.7% in the process.

Like the benchmark, higher grades also inched higher with the price for 65% fines lifting 0.5% to $96.40 a tonne.
After soaring a session earlier, the price for 58% fines was unchanged at $38.64 a tonne.
The continued gains in mid and higher grades followed earlier strength in Chinese rebar futures traded in Shanghai.
