A report of unfilled orders and a probable increase are expected to reassure the business world and bolster the steel industry's role as a market barometer. Temporary firmer money conditions may have toned down rapid security gains, signaling a technical weakness. Fresh commitments should be timed to ride any further moderate market reactions.
