Report summary
Shipments of stainless steel from Tsingshan Indonesia are having a measurable impact on competitors in China, Taiwan, South Korea and India. This is triggering protectionism: China has already introduced anti-dumping duties while other countries are considering their own measures. If these become more widespread, Tsingshan's advance may slow down, potentially preventing it from increasing output to its installed capacity of 3 Mtpa.
