Final Thoughts

Please excuse me as I am asking for a pass on tonight’s Final Thoughts. I left Las Vegas yesterday morning with a case of the 24-48 hour flu. I guess I could write a couple of paragraphs about our next Steel 101 workshop or about our SMU Steel Summit Conference. But, I thought my energy would be better spent trying to get well.
Thank you for your understanding and I will make up for this pass with a knockout Final Thoughts on either Sunday or Tuesday evening.
As always, your business is truly appreciated by all of us here at Steel Market Update.
