Final Thoughts

On Monday Steel Market Update will begin our next steel market survey. This will be the first for the month of March. Invitations should go out at approximately 8 AM ET. This will be an interesting week as we watch scrap prices, mill lead times and for evidence that the domestic mills will be serious with their most recent price increase announcements.
Our market survey will provide us a much deeper look into the psychology and opinions driving the market. We will report our findings later this week.
As always your business is truly appreciated.
