This is the last Executive issue of Steel Market Update until Sunday evening. We will produce a Premium issue for our Premium clients tomorrow.
Our offices will be open tomorrow (Wednesday) and closed on Thanksgiving Day. We will have limited coverage on the Friday following Thanksgiving. Our offices will return to normal staffing and hours on Monday, Nov. 27.
If you or your company is interested in becoming either a sponsor or an exhibitor for our 2018 SMU Steel Summit Conference, please send a note to: info@SteelMarketUpdate.com and we will get you a brochure with pricing and information. Our expectation is that our conference will entertain 750+ steel and manufacturing executives next year. The conference will be held at the Georgia International Convention Center on Aug. 27-29, 2018. Mark your calendars and put us in your budget for next year.
End of the year housekeeping: We had a customer contact us today wanting to know the correct remit-to address as they have been using our old Georgia address and their letter was returned. Our remit-to address is: Steel Market Update, P.O. Box 1255, Hobe Sound, FL 33475. Accounting office phone number is 772-932-7538. My office phone number is 800-432-3475. The accounting office and mine are in two separate buildings. If you have questions about our website, the best person to call is Brett Linton who can be reached at 706-216-2140.
As always, your business is truly appreciated by all of us here at Steel Market Update.

We're getting ready to initiate the 10-day countdown until Steel Summit 2025 in Atlanta. Liftoff is on Aug. 25, and the conference goes through Aug. 27. With the speed at which things have moved this year, it will be great to take a breath and reflect on what's happened so far.

What the word "sideways" means can depend on where you sit on the procurement spectrum.
