SMU Flat Rolled Steel Market Trends Analysis
Written by John Packard
Last week, Steel Market Update (SMU) conducted our mid-April flat rolled steel market trends analysis. Over the course of the week we invited 670 individuals representing approximately 650 companies to participate in our survey.
The breakout of the participants was a little different than what we have been seeing over the course of a number of years. In the past, we had a good balance between manufacturing companies and steel service centers with manufacturing companies being a few percentage points larger than the distributors.
