In the Italian market HRC prices are currently maintaining their levels of the pre-holiday period. Having concluded import bookings before the holidays, Italian buyers are now maintaining a wait-and-see stance due to the high levels of Chinese offers. It is expected that Chinese origin offers on a euro basis may deteriorate in line with the increase of the €/$ exchange rate to the level of 1.45. Domestic and import flats offers in Italy are as follows:
