China bookeda few lots from Russian Far East producers, at $480-482/t cfr, in the last twoweeks, and is looking for more tonnages still, according to traders. With ironore continuing to strengthen and finished product stocks remaining moderate,despite imports, demand is well supported for now, sources say.
大多数消息人士预计，
1
月产品将以接近报价的价格出售，但预计价格将出现修正——即使只是技术性修正。不过，一些观察人士指出，尽管全球经济持续疲软，而且没有新的基础设施支出，但废钢价格——黑海方坯价格的主要晴雨表——预计还不会出现修正。
Most sourcesexpect January-casting volumes to be sold at close to offer prices, but acorrection – if only technical – is being expected. Several observers point to theongoing weakness of the global economy and absence of new infrastructurespending, but scrap prices – the main barometer for Black Sea billet prices –are not expected to correct yet.
