Hot-rolled coil steel prices in Europe remained stable on September 7th, as the steel trading activity was slow due to low demand in the construction sector and negative outlook for vehicle manufacturing, reports EUROMETAL. Distributors have been actively trying to reduce stock. As a result, prices are expected to move down while mills try to increase offers. According to S&P Global Platts, demand is unlikely to improve, and a large influx of cheap imported steel is expected to enter the European market in October. Platts assessed the domestic hot-rolled coil price unchanged at Eur655/mt ex-works Ruhr on September 7th. Industry Intelligence editor's note: Information originally published by EUROMETAL.
