The most commonly heard offer price to US-based traders for imported 0.012”x40.875” G30 hot dipped galvanized (HDG) coil from offshore providers has continued to trend sideways, as buyers and sellers of US import coated steel products are just now returning to work, after the year-end holiday season.

Offer prices 0.012”x40.875” G30 coil in the US domestic market from Pakistan and the UAE are currently unchanged, at $43-$44 cwt. ($948-$970/mt or $860-$880/nt) DDP loaded truck in US Gulf coast ports; the most commonly heard price range for 0.019x41.5625 Gr80/AZ55 Galvalume coil from Brazil is also still holding in the approximate range of $42-$44 cwt. ($926-$970/mt or $840-$880/nt), DDP loaded truck in US Gulf coast ports. 

Trader sources say they expect to receive new offers from offshore steelmakers in the upcoming days.
