Australian shares edged lower on Monday as miners fell on weakness in iron ore and copper prices, while investors braced for a possible fifth rate hike this year. Rio Tinto reported a seismic event temporarily disrupting underground mining at its Oyu Tolgoi copper mine in Mongolia.
Routine equity market commentary with iron ore weakness noted; it carries little supply or demand implication for animal-feed commodities.
Not enough comparable past events yet for a historical read.
Moves of each commodity's benchmark from the last close before the event. Historical reads pool past events of the same kind; they describe what happened, not what will. Not investment advice.
