SMU Community Chat with Ryan Smith of CRU

On Wednesday, March 17, Steel Market Update will host John Packard (SMU CEO) and Ryan Smith, Senior Analyst covering global steel costing and decarbonization for CRU. This will be a special program in that Ryan resides in Sydney, Australia, thus the 3:30 p.m. EDST time instead of our usual 11 a.m. start time.

Ryan Smith has spoken at two of our SMU Steel Summit Conferences and he is an interesting speaker with a solid grasp on the subject matter he will be covering. During our approximately 45 minutes together, we will discuss how U.S. steel mills fare against their global competitors (from a cost to produce perspective). We will also discuss where U.S. mills stand on the carbon cost curve and what decarbonization of the industry will mean to the domestic mills and their customers.
