Correction to Fastmarkets’ No1 heavy melt, No1 busheling and shredded auto scrap daily composite calculations for Wednesday April 9:

Fastmarkets has corrected its daily composite calculations for No1 heavy melting scrap, No1 busheling and shredded auto scrap, which was published incorrectly on Wednesday, April 9

The daily composite prices for these grades were incorrectly calculated without the settled Chicago assessments on April 9.

The composite prices for No1 heavy melting scrap and No1 busheling are calculated using the average settled prices for Chicago, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh.

The composite price for shredded auto scrap is calculated using the average settled prices for Alabama, Chicago, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh.

Fastmarkets’ MB-STE-0426 steel scrap No1 heavy melt, daily composite, delivered mill US, $/gross ton was erroneously published at $368.33 per gross ton on April 9 and has been corrected to $358.33 per gross ton.

Fastmarkets’ MB-STE-0428 Steel scrap No1 busheling, daily composite, delivered mill US, $/gross ton was erroneously published at $466.67 per gross ton on April 9 and has been corrected to $460 per gross ton.

Fastmarkets’ MB-STE-0427 Steel scrap shredded auto, daily composite, delivered mill US, $/gross ton was erroneously published at $435.75 per gross ton on April 9 and has been corrected to $425.75 per gross ton.
