US import HDG prices still steady

As with last week, US import HDG prices have remained stable. Sources close to SteelOrbis have said that a growing number of customers have become wary of booking offshore because they’re concerned that domestic prices will dip before imported material arrives at the dock.  Current domestic prices are still high, but stable, however, some believe that the market has “reached its peak,” and that prices are “more likely to correct than they are to go up again.”
