Correction to rationale of Vietnam steel scrap import price assessment

Fastmarkets has corrected the rationale for its weekly price assessment for MB-STE-0783 steel scrap, HMS 1&2 (80:20), cfr Vietnam, which was published incorrectly on Friday June 27 due to reporter error.

The rationale for MB-STE-0783 steel scrap, HMS 1&2 (80:20), cfr Vietnam, had wrongly said that offers of containerized scrap were heard at $285 per tonne. This has been corrected to show that such assessments were heard at $285 per tonne.

The published price is unaffected by this change.

This price is part of the Fastmarkets scrap package.
