Progress in Iron and Steel Trade Slows but Holds Ground
The Iron Trade Review notes slow but steady progress in iron and steel, with no major advances over the past month. Active items include tinplate wire sheet and merchant pipe, while billets and bars lag slightly. structural material rails improve a touch, and high finish goods like shafting nuts and bolts are subdued. Pig iron remains unstable due to underbidding by some furnace interests. April saw foundry iron prices drop about one dollar per ton, with Bessemer and basic snags marginally less. Overall tonnage gains in April did not match March’s pace, yet developments help crystallize sentiment and ease commercial unrest into a gradual uptrend.
