Written by Brett Linton
The amount of raw steel produced by US mills increased for the fourth consecutive week last week to a new multi-year high, according to figures recently published by the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI).
US mills produced an estimated 1,843,000 short tons (st) of raw steel in the week ending April 11, up 12,000 st, or 0.7%, from the previous week (Figure 1). Production has strengthened 8% since the start of the year and is now at the highest weekly volume recorded in almost four and a half years.
