PriceSeek's analysis of coking coal, with a long-short score of 1, indicates that the auction price of Mongolian ER Company's coking coal reached 860 yuan/ton, up by 10 yuan/ton from the previous session. The full sale of 12,800 tons suggests strong spot market demand and tightening supply, which may drive up spot prices for coking coal. Despite recent declines in coking coal futures (e.g., data from January 6, 2026, shows that major contracts generally fell, with the 2605 contract closing at 1,096 yuan/ton, down 19 yuan for the day), the rise in spot prices reflects bullish market sentiment. This could boost confidence in the futures market and support a rebound in futures prices, thus constituting a generally positive influence on futures prices.
