First impact
Steel and iron products →Prices riseIron ore (direct shipping ore & pellets)
If the duties shift some Australian demand from Chinese imports toward domestic steel output, mills would draw more iron ore feedstock.

Australia's duties on Chinese steel screws make imported finished fasteners less competitive, which can shift some demand to domestic or non-Chinese screw production and modestly lift demand for CHQ wire rod as a critical fastener feedstock.
Hop 2
Ferrous scrap steel →Stands to benefitAustralia’s anti-dumping duties make Chinese steel screws and rails less competitive, which can benefit domestic steel and iron products and lift their demand for ferrous scrap steel inputs.
66% confidenceCold-Heading-Quality (CHQ) Steel Wire Rod →Stands to benefitIf Australian fastener production substitutes away from Chinese imports, CHQ wire rod demand can shift toward larger non-Chinese suppliers, and Canada’s 33.5% share makes it the biggest potential beneficiary on this edge.
