Creamer Media’s Real Economy Year Book has been divided into separate reports under the banner Real Economy Insight, and investigates key developments in the automotive, construction, electricity, road and rail, steel, water, coal, gold, iron-ore and platinum sectors. The pumps sector has also been included as a new addition.
This five-page brief is a synopsis of key developments in the steel sector over the past 12 months. It provides an overview of the global and South African steel markets, demand and supply, proposed new steel capacity and a discussion on the development steel price.
This brief has been compiled using information published in Engineering News and Mining Weekly, as well as of information available in the public domain, and does not purport to provide analysis of market trends.
