A reminder that Steel Market Update will not publish this Sunday evening due to the Memorial Day Weekend Holiday here in the United States. We will publish our next steel newsletter on Tuesday. We wish everyone in the United States a safe, healthy and happy holiday weekend.
Our September 3 & 4th Forecasting & Steel Summit Conference program is coming together as we strive to provide the most relevant content possible for those manufacturing companies and service centers who will be working on their 2015 and beyond business forecasts. I saw Dr. Chris Kuehl of Armada Corporate Intelligence speak at a conference earlier this year and was impressed with his grasp of the world, domestic and steel markets. I found him to be an engaging speaker and he should be an excellent addition to our program.
We will have hotel information for the conference available for you by next Tuesday evening’s issue of SMU.
More speaker announcements to come as well.
Until then, enjoy your holiday weekend and, as always, your business is truly appreciated by all of us here at Steel Market Update.

Final Thoughts
There are days when this feels like a “nothing ever happens” market. Don’t get me wrong. Plenty is happening in the world. It’s just that none of it seems to matter when it comes to sheet and plate prices.
