My final thoughts are going to be extremely brief this evening as I live close to the Atlantic Ocean in south Florida and there is a category 5 hurricane thinking about heading our way. So, we are in preparation mode and will move north and wait to see if it veers further west and into the Gulf of Mexico or east missing the Florida coast. My goal is to not miss a beat as we work on Thursday and Sunday’s newsletters.
As always, your business is truly appreciated by all of us here at Steel Market Update.
