In part two of this special Cup o’ Joe episode, we’re shifting gears to break down what’s happening in the steel, aluminum, and stainless markets—and where they could be headed next.
Hosts Mike Carrozzo and Nick Webb, Director of Risk Management & Commodities Hedging, sit down with Ryerson’s metals experts to discuss:
🔹 Steel prices—Are we at the start of a rally? Where do tariffs fit into the picture?
🔹 China’s exports—Why global markets are watching closely as steel shipments hit historic levels
🔹 Aluminum premiums—What’s driving Midwest premium volatility, and could tariffs on Canadian imports shake things up?
🔹 Nickel & stainless trends—With prices at multi-year lows, is a supply correction coming?
🔹 Market predictions for 2025—Expect volatility, shifts in trade policy, and manufacturing tailwinds
Will steel mills push price increases further? How will scrap price trends impact supply chains? And is stainless poised for a rebound?
