In the short term GS sees iron ore holding gains, citing:

Demand ongoing from China, margin strength

  • "We reiterate our 6-12 month negative view on iron ore as we expect the market to enter a surplus in 2H21 on higher Brazilian exports"

Iron ore is a huge Australian export to China, something to watch ahead for AUD traders.
