And for anyone who wants the data, this is from 2015, but the cost curve hasn't really changed since then.

China ain't going nowhere. Unless they're stupid.

No your being your usual obtrusive self. Straight bowled as usual clearly lacking an ability to accept other view points with strong argument. But yes, if that's the best you can mount best not bother. Only get yourself hot and bothered.

This is the result when some uncanny lad has access to a computer.

So China not in a position according to you to renegotiate shipping and import costs
by increasing volume and number of hulls? Already said China can play with Australia to its heart content.
It doesn't have to cease all imports from Australia. (in order top create havoc)

No. Do you not see how self defeating that would be? The fact you think China's issues have anything to do with the number of ships makes it abundantly clear you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

China isn't the only buyer in the i/o market.

Oh dear I sense severe labouring in an effort to justify argument. Now deep breath. While China is obviously not the only contender for Australian ore, is it by far the largest. Any drop of demand will severely impact the economy as it will not be replaced over night. With China's economic clout due to demand, they can most definitely do deals more favourably to own interests. Hence the term number of hulls. My apologies for not keeping it more simple.
Oh, any ideas just whom would replace the massive demand from China? There is not a lot of candidates who would likely step in to fill the void. Perhaps a spot of gunboat diplomacy may rid the blighters of getting above themselves?

It does appear that Pater Aussiehoff has vacated the building forgetting to lock down computer. Junior Aussiehoff has thus gained access and attempting sabotage tactics yet again in order to avoid an unwinnable debate. Some things just never change. Someone, somewhere please have a word to Pater with regards to a lapse in memory.
