Coal prices held around $130 per ton, below the 17-month high of $146.5 reached on March 20, but still up nearly 9% since the war began in early March. The move reflects spillover from higher oil and LNG risk premiums as failed US-Iran peace talks keep key shipping routes uncertain. Asia is leaning on coal for baseload power, with Japan extending coal plant use and South Korea easing curbs, while China boosts domestic coal output and advances coal-to-gas projects to cut import risk. The shift underscores a broader energy-security pivot as gas and oil supply fears persist. Still, any rebound in Middle Eastern energy flows could unwind recent gains, while long-term demand faces pressure from accelerating renewable energy growth and policy transitions worldwide. In corporate news, Anglo American is attracting at least three bidders for its Australian steelmaking coal assets, with Stanmore Resources, Mitsubishi Corporation and PT Buma Internasional Grup among suitors.
