Market for iron and steel remains firm with price outlook
The market for crude and finished iron and steel stays very firm as American pig iron trades well. Foundry and mill deliveries are large due to old orders and ongoing new business, keeping output well sold. Prospects for price rises emerge if demand remains strong, though capacity expansion may limit immediate gains. Bessemer and Scotch pig iron show firmer prices, with Scotch at high levels abroad. Pennsylvania brands quoted.
