Raw Material Prices: Iron Ore, Coking Coal, Pig Iron, Scrap and Zinc
Written by Peter Wright
Raw materials prices have lacked direction in the last month.
Table 1 summarizes the price changes through March of the five materials considered in this analysis. It reports the month / month, 3 months / 3 months and 12 months / 12 months changes and tells us that iron ore and pig iron declined in one month and all except iron ore declined year-over-year. This is almost the same pattern that existed in our February report.
