Jan 28 (Reuters) - The Dalian Commodity Exchange, where one of China's most liquid derivatives — iron ore futures — is traded, will now open on Monday, Feb. 3, instead of Friday, Jan. 31, according to a notice posted on the Chinese bourse's website.
The announcement followed the Chinese government's move to extend the week-long Lunar New Year holiday by three days to Feb. 2, as it seeks to limit the spread of a new coronavirus that has killed over 100 people in China.
