In the latest US-origin scrap deal last week, HMS 80:20 stood at $275/tcfr Turkey. Since the latest deep-sea scrap booking into Turkey had this gradepriced at $276/t, however, US suppliers are now not expected to offer at below$280/t cfr.

。这主要是由于土耳其价格上涨，以及集装箱短缺，增加了集装箱废钢的定价风险
West Coast scrap suppliers also increased their offer prices last week.After bottoming at $215-220/t cfr Taiwan, US merchants hiked offers to $230/tcfr last Friday. This was mostly the result of the price increases in Turkey,as well as the shortage of containers which is increasing containerised scrappricing risk.
一位美国中西部贸易商表示：“尽管现在做出预测可能还为时过早，但我认为，

月份价格走势最差的情况将是横向盘整。
“Although it may be too early to make predictions, the worst-casescenario for March pricing would be a sideways trend, I think,” says a USMidwest merchant.
“最好的情况将是横向盘整，”一位认为废钢供应远远超过需求的美国钢铁生产商反驳说。“我们没有遭遇恶劣的冬季条件。出口和本地需求低迷。废钢供应过剩。
“The best-case scenario would be a sideways trend,” counters a US steelproducer who thinks scrap supply is well over demand. “We have not had harshwinter conditions. Export and local demand were slow. There is more than enoughscrap.”
美国东海岸一位废钢出口商告诉

（开阑商务信息咨询）：“产能利用率很好，超过了
80%
。本地钢厂的废钢需求和土耳其的需求也有所增加。我们有一个积极的前景。”
A US East Coast scrap exporter tells Kallanish: “Capacity utilisation isat a good rate, over 80%. Local mills’ scrap demand has also increased, as wellas Turkish demand. We have a positive outlook.”
尽管不确定性依然存在，但可以有把握地说，目前美国废钢市场的乐观前景大于下行风险。
Although uncertainty remains, it is safe to say a positive outlookcurrently outweighs downside risks in the US scrap market
