    A note to those interested in attending our Steel 101: Introduction to Steel Making & Market Fundamentals workshop in May. The workshop is about 50 percent fully registered at this time. The location is Merriville, Indiana just outside of Chicago. Our mill tour will be of the NLMK Indiana electric arc furnace (EAF) plant which produces slabs and rolls hot rolled coils. This is a good workshop for those interested in learning more about the steel making process, rolling process (both flat and long products), how steel is bought and sold and the issues which impact prices and relationships. You can find more details  on our website or you are welcome to contact our office for more information. We can be reached at: 800-432-3475 or info@SteelMarketUpdate.com.

    I was reading the Armada Intelligence Brief this evening and Dr. Kuehl and his partner were concentrating on the fighting between Saudia Arabia soldiers and the Houthi rebels in Yemen.
