Polish long steel prices published early due to public holiday on November 1

Fastmarkets’ weekly price assessments for Polish long steel were published on Thursday October 31, one day ahead of schedule due to a public holiday in Poland on November 1.

The early publication is in line with Fastmarkets’ pricing calendar, which marks November 1 as All Saints Day but did not specify that Polish prices would be affected by the public holiday. This has been amended.

The following prices were published early:

MB-STE-0092 – Steel reinforcing bar (rebar) domestic, cpt Poland, zloty/tonne

MB-STE-0891 – Steel wire rod (drawing quality) domestic, delivered Poland, zloty/tonne

These prices are a part of the Fastmarkets ferrous metals package.
