Nucor’s weekly consumer spot price (CSP) for hot-rolled (HR) coil was unchanged week on week (w/w) at $740 per short ton (st) as of Monday, Nov. 4.
This marks the second consecutive week the Charlotte, N.C-based steelmaker has published this price. The CSP was at $720/st for the two weeks prior to last week. It was $730/st one month ago.
The HR coil base price for the Nucor subsidiary CSI in California was also unchanged w/w at $800/st. It was at $780/st for the two weeks prior to that and $790/st one month ago.
Lead times of 3-5 weeks will continue to be offered, but Nucor noted for customers to contact their district sales manager for availability. Published extras will apply to all spot transactions.
