Shenhua's steady dividends, output dip, and green push shape its outlook

Coking Coal Futures (DCE) (COKINGCOAL.COMM)

Q3 2026

Coking coal swings on mine halts, asset sales, and mixed earnings

  • Shanxi mine suspensions cut supply Three Shanxi Coking Coal mines with 8.2 million tonnes of annual capacity halted production in late July as licenses expired. Less coal available supports higher coking coal futures prices, though the company is seeking renewals.

    This is a fresh, large supply cut that directly tightens the coking coal market.

  • Chinese coal demand recovery lifts prices Panjiang Coal swung to a first-half profit as coal demand recovered more than expected and domestic and international coal prices rose together. Stronger demand and higher prices pull coking coal futures up.

    It shows real end-user demand strengthening, a core force behind coking coal prices.

  • Anglo American sells Australian coal assets Anglo American agreed to sell its Australian steelmaking coal assets for up to $3.88 billion before merging with Teck. The sale reduces future coking coal supply, which normally supports prices, but signals a shift away from coal.

    It changes the long-term supply landscape and investor sentiment for coking coal.

  • Earnings show weak prices but falling output Baotailong expects a first-half loss as coal prices and output fell, while Alpha Metallurgical's terminal damage forced shipment delays. Weak prices and disruptions cut both ways, but falling output tightens supply and can support futures.

    It captures the tug-of-war between weak pricing and reduced supply that shapes coking coal's direction.
