Dalian iron ore futures dive as China stimulus optimism ebbs
Updates closing prices
SINGAPORE, Oct 9 (Reuters) -Prices of Dalian iron ore futures languished on Wednesday, as an absence of further fiscal measures following China's outsized stimulus package disappointed investors and saw the market's previously stimulus-driven frenzy fade.
The most-traded January iron ore contract on China's Dalian Commodity Exchange (DCE) DCIOcv1 ended daytime trade down 3.6% at 777.5 yuan ($110.12) a metric ton, after tumbling more than 4% earlier in the session.
The benchmark November iron ore SZZFX4 on the Singapore Exchange, however, edged 0.2% higher to $105.2 a ton.
Metals futures slumped after Beijing failed to deliver any meaningful stimulus measures to boost economic growth, ANZ analysts said in a note.
A press briefing by China's top economic planner was expected to provide details of fiscal stimulus measures the Politburo called for earlier, but instead largely reiterated plans to boost investment, ANZ said.
"Prices retraced on what was clearly overhyped expectations for Chinese stimulus," said Westpac analysts.
China said on Tuesday it was "fully confident" of achieving its full-year growth target, but refrained from introducing stronger fiscal steps, disappointing investors who had banked on more policy support to get the economy back on track.
"We have seen plenty of property support measures this year but so far they have failed to have a meaningful impact on metals demand," ING analysts said.
"We think the recent stimulus measures still lack detail, and we struggle to find an additional demand growth driver for industrial metals in the measures announced so far."
The market needs to see signs of sustainable Chinese recovery and economic growth before industrial metals can make long-term gains, ING said.
Other steelmaking ingredients on the DCE extended declines, with coking coal DJMcv1 and coke DCJcv1 down 4.78% and 4.44%, respectively. Coking coal had plunged over 5% earlier in the session.
Steel benchmarks on the Shanghai Futures Exchange lost ground. Hot-rolled coil SHHCcv1 dropped 3.5%, rebar SRBcv1 shed nearly 3.3%, stainless steel SHSScv1 declined almost 1.3% and wire rod SWRcv1 was flat.
