After a gloomy start to the week, iron ore futures saw a significant recovery on Monday, with the Singapore benchmark rising back above $100 per ton, supported by expectations of an increase in China's steel demand.

After China's manufacturing PMI surprisingly decreased and the growth momentum for service activity was slow in April, the market expected the new stimulus measures could improve the situation.
