Updates closing prices

SINGAPORE, Oct 11 (Reuters) -Iron ore futures prices rebounded on Fridaybutlogged their first weekly fall in three weeks, as traders cautiously awaited further fiscal stimulus announcements from top consumer China in a key press conference scheduled on Saturday.
The most-traded January iron ore contract on China's Dalian Commodity Exchange (DCE) DCIOcv1 ended daytime trade 1.15% higher at 789.0 yuan ($111.55)a metric ton.
The contract lost 2.18% for theweek, posting its first weekly fall since Sept. 27.
The benchmark November iron ore SZZFX4 on the Singapore Exchange was 1.64%higher at $106.1 a ton as of 0720 GMT but fell 3.88% this week.
China's finance ministry is scheduled to hold a news conference on fiscal policy on Saturday.
Metals rose and the iron ore market marked time as traders remained "super focused" on Saturday's announcement, Westpac analysts said in a note.
The conference follows an official briefing on Tuesday that affirmed Beijing was "fully confident" of achieving its 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.
Meanwhile, analysts also cited prospects of long-term gains for China's commodities from its effective support of equity markets.
"A combination of stability in the real estate sector and stronger equity markets should see consumer sentiment rebound, which could bolster domestic confidence enough to lead to an economic rebound and stronger demand for commodities," ANZ analysts said.
While the stimulus measures have lifted sentiment in housing and steel markets, fundamentals such as stable consumption and production increases will remain crucial variables for steel's supply-demand dynamic, Chinese consultancy Steelhome said.
Other steelmaking ingredients on the DCE were stronger, with coking coal DJMcv1 and coke DCJcv1 up 2.77% and 1.28%, respectively.
Steel benchmarkson the Shanghai Futures Exchange reversed earlier losses. Rebar SRBcv1 and stainless steel SHSScv1 ticked about 0.25% higher,hot-rolled coil SHHCcv1 gained around 0.6% and wire rod SWRcv1 advanced0.77%.
