While China was flat for the month, it’s good to see a recovery in European markets. India continues to go from strength to strength and looks like it’s on track to hit 140mt for the year, up 12% or 15mt on last year. IO supplied to India is still marginal but steel imports from India have increased significantly in recent months and are now a net steel importer due to strong domestic demand.
If India is not able to meet increasing domestic demand through higher steel production, China may very well create a new steel export record next year again.
