0137 GMT - Coal markets are on a slow burn, says Jefferies. Metallurgical coal prices are likely to recover, but more slowly than the bank had thought. It points to weak steel markets globally and elevated volumes of Chinese steel exports. "In thermal coal, the rally off April lows appears unsustainable, with benchmark Newcastle prices expected to gradually revert toward US$95/ton amid persistent oversupply and capped demand from key Asian buyers," Jefferies says. Pulverised Coal Injection remains under pressure "as substitution and excess availability compress its premium," it adds. Jefferies cuts its price target for Coronado Global Resources by 22% to A$0.14. Shares are at A$0.1375. Its price target for Whitehaven Coal falls 3% to A$6.40, compared with A$5.59 now.
