 Article Headline: BHP-Rio deal could push up iron-ore prices ‘significantly’ – regulator
 Abstract: Australia’s competition watchdog warned on Friday that a merged BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto might be able to, and want to, influence global iron-ore supply and prices. This could lead to steelmakers paying “significantly” higher prices for the raw material, the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (ACCC) said. BHP Billiton, the world’s biggest resources company, formally launched its all-share takeover bid for rival Rio Tinto in February, which the smaller company snubbed as not reflecting its true value and future prospects.
