Rio Tinto: Further Downside Likely
- Rio Tinto Group's stock has continued to decline in the past few months, which isn't surprising considering the state of the iron ore market.
- Still, there's some hope as the company's iron ore production improved sequentially, and the commodity's price saw some uptick due to China's stimulus measures.
- But copper price sluggishness, on the other hand, can be a downer, along with the Arcadium Lithium acquisition, which will impact earnings next year.

Iron ore miner Rio Tinto Group (NYSE:RIO) is down by 12% since I wrote about it two months ago. This isn't surprising. Even at that time, upside was unlikely going by the state of the commodity market.
