Investment bank Goldman Sachs is upbeat about the outlook for iron ore, upgrading its price forecast for the steel input in 2023 to $US120 per tonne. Its previous forecast was $US100 a tonne. Goldman Sachs expects an iron ore deficit of 43 million tonnes, due to factors such as rising demand from China as the nation’s economy reopens. The firm has a ‘buy’ recommendation on Rio Tinto’s shares and a ‘sell’ rating on Fortescue Metals Group, while it has a ‘neutral’ position regarding BHP.
