SMU is pleased to announce that Wolfe Research Managing Director Timna Tanners will be the featured speaker on our first Community Chat webinar of 2022.
We’ll discuss the big issues – the great debates – that will drive steel markets next year:
U.S. Steel held a ceremonial groundbreaking on Monday for its new $475-million quench-and-tempering facility at its Fairfield Tubular Operations in Alabama.
The scrap market for October is looking for direction as some participants on both sides of the furnace are indicating scrap prices are poised for an increase.
SMU’s latest Flat-Rolled Steel Buyers Survey shows that in a tight US market marked by long lead times, low inventories, and rising prices, foreign products continue to gain the interest of domestic buyers.
Domestic raw steel output fell to a six-month low last week after hitting a multi-year high one week earlier, according to the latest American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) figures.
Nucor said on Monday, Sept. 21, that its consumer spot price (CSP) for hot-rolled (HR) coil will be $1,210 per short ton (st) this week, a $10/st increase from a week earlier.
