Commodity Market Report
Global stainless steel strategic planning outlook Q1 2023
Report summary
Despite growth in supply and demand this year, albeit from a low base, stainless prices are falling. China will be better in 2023 now it is emerging from zero Covid, but its customary strength will take time to return. Expansions in the pipeline lie behind future growth in China although there is a risk to timelines. In contrast, Europe and the US, though better than late 2022, are looking weak and may surprise on the downside.
