BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto will shortly release their production data for the March 2016 quarter. Paul Young of Deutsche Bank forecasts that BHP’s output of its four main commodities will be flat or lower than previously. Glyn Lawcock of UBS says BHP may have to reduce its iron ore production guidance for 2015-16, as it may not meet its full-year forecast for its Pilbara operations for output of 270 million tonnes. He also expects Rio Tinto’s iron ore production to have fallen.
