    矿业巨擘要求中国接受铁矿石提价95%

    力拓(Rio Tinto)和必和必拓(BHP Billiton)要求中国钢铁企业客户最迟在下周一接受铁矿石价格历来最大幅度的上调,否则来自澳大利亚的供应可能中断。

    交易员和行业官员表示,这两家矿业公司要求的年度铁矿石合约价格涨幅,要超过2005年71.5%的创纪录涨幅,它们力争将价格提高85-95%。

    力拓和必和必拓已警告中国客户,部分年度合约将于6月30日到期,它们将停止按旧条款供应。它们表示,将把铁矿石转而销往价格更高的现货市场。

    分析师指出,力拓大部分铁矿石合约将于6月30日到期,而必和必拓的部分合约9月份才到期,因此有更多时间谈判,而由力拓率先谈判。

    澳洲麦格理银行(Macquarie)表示,力拓力求让价格涨幅超过市场所预期的85-95%。该行在一篇报告中称:“这一立场表明,投资者须对旷日持久、结果可能不愉快的谈判局面有所准备。”

    力拓和必和必拓所要求的价格涨幅超过巴西淡水河谷(Vale),因为它们靠近中国,降低了运输成本。

    交易员表示,澳大利亚至中国的货运成本上周大幅下降37%,原因是至少有一家矿业公司停止预订部分船舶在7月份按原合约进行运输。此举表明,如果谈判破裂,它们打算向现货市场发货。

    摩根士丹利(Morgan Stanley)在一篇报告中指出,铁矿石市场面临“空前” 的价格形势。“市场仍极度吃紧,严重短缺。”

    力拓和必和必拓拒绝置评。
