Final Thoughts
Written by John Packard
I have been in Pittsburgh these past two days attending the Metalcon show. I will return to my office on Friday afternoon.
I spoke with a service center who is a large supplier to General Motors Tier One and Tier Two. GM built inventory going into the strike and continued to take shipments for one and a half weeks after the strike began. This supplier was told to start shipping again on Monday. The expectation is for a return to normal schedules quickly. There should be minimal impact on prices or lead times as things return to normal flows.
