European flat product sales are expected to continue to grow moderately in the fourth quarter of 2016. European factories have raised their prices because they have a large volume of orders for the remainder of 2016. In addition, rising coking coal costs are pushing higher sales prices for steel. Also, supplies of sources from third countries are limited, in part due to the implementation of anti-dumping duties.
MEPS forecasts determine relatively stable rental prices in the first months of 2017. However, a negative trend is expected by the beginning of the second quarter. Stocks in warehouses are likely to increase and imports will expand. In addition, raw material costs are expected to decline during this period.
