Prices for shredded steel scrap imported into Pakistan and India increased on Friday October 29, despite concerns over rising freight costs, sources have told Fastmarkets.

Fastmarkets has corrected its chromium price, in warehouse Rotterdam, which was incorrectly published on Friday October 29 due to an editing error.

Seaborne low-vol PCI prices in both the fob and cfr markets fell following the drop in thermal coal prices.
