Iron ore futures contracts demonstrated a firming trend on Friday. The most actively traded contract on the Dalian Commodity Exchange concluded the session at 727 yuan per metric tonne. This represented a 1.04% increase compared to the previous trading period.

Simultaneously, spot prices at Qingdao port registered a slight increase, averaging 1 yuan per metric tonne. This modest adjustment in spot pricing reflected prevailing market conditions.

Market participants, including traders, exhibited a measured approach in their offering activities. Their enthusiasm for selling was described as moderate, indicating a cautious stance.

Conversely, purchasing behaviour from mills was characterised by an as-needed basis. This suggests a focus on immediate requirements rather than speculative buying or inventory building.

Overall, the level of spot trading activity was observed to be lacklustre. This indicates a relatively quiet market for immediate physical transactions, despite the movement in futures.
