Wood Mackenzie称中国矿产资源集团影响力扩大或使日本成为铁矿石价格接受者
China’s Iron Ore Sway May Leave Japan a Price Taker: Woodmac
Wood Mackenzie称，中国矿产资源集团正从集中采购角色转向可能影响全球铁矿石定价的力量，日本及其他主要买家可能因此成为价格接受者。咨询机构指出，这些买家的成本可能更受中国港口库存、人民币状况、市场情绪及中国矿产资源集团采购节奏影响。
Japan and other major iron ore buyers risk becoming price takers as China’s state-backed purchasing company seeks greater influence over how the steelmaking ingredient is priced, according to consultant Wood Mackenzie Ltd.
China Mineral Resources Group Co. is shifting from a centralized buying role to a potential force in global price formation, WoodMac said in a report on Thursday. It means that costs for Japan and other buyers could become more sensitive to Chinese port inventories, yuan conditions, market sentiment and the rhythm of CMRG’s purchases, according to the consultancy.
