The iron ore industry has hit some turbulence. Prices have taken a nosedive this year, partly due to a slowdown in China – a big buyer of iron ore. This has influenced the Australian stock market, with mining giants like BHP and Rio Tinto feeling the heat. The US dollar and interest rates are also adding pressure. Discover what this all means for investors in this week’s Weekly Wrap video.
