Macquarie Group forecasts that Rio Tinto’s Western Australian iron ore shipments for 2016 will fall slightly short of its guidance for 330 million tonnes. Macquarie also says BHP Billiton also may not meet its production guidance. Macquarie had forecast that shipments from the state’s major iron ore export terminals would total 216 million tonnes in the September quarter, but new data shows that about 209 million tonnes were shipped.
