Early publication of European green steel price

Fastmarkets’ European green steel price was published earlier than scheduled due to an error.

The price was published at 15.14 London time instead of the scheduled time of 16.00.

The data submission window had already closed, and the data collection and price assessment were not affected by the early publication. The price was rolled over from the previous week due to the Christmas holidays, in line with Fastmarkets’ holiday pricing schedule.

The price that was published early was:

MB-STE-0904:Green steel domestic, flat-rolled, differential to HRC index, exw Northern Europe
