Up 13% in a month, will the Rio Tinto share price deliver more gains by Christmas?

The Rio Tinto Ltd (ASX: RIO) share price has enjoyed a very strong run over the past month.

On 23 October, shares in the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) iron ore miner finished the day trading for $111.85. Yesterday, the mining stock closed at $126.50 a share.

That puts the Rio Tinto share price up a very healthy 13.1% over the period, far outpacing the 2.7% gains posted by the ASX 200 over this same time.

With one month to go before Christmas, the question ASX 200 investors are asking now is, what can we expect from the Rio Tinto share price heading into the holidays?
