According to foreign media reports, on May 17, the CIS cold rolled steel coil export appraisal price was 1155-1175 US dollars / ton (FOB, Black Sea), up 20-35 US dollars / ton.
According to CIS market news, Russian steel mills did not release the latest export quotation of cold-rolled steel coils at the beginning of this week. Russian steel mills generally expect that the price of cold-rolled steel coils still has room to rise, so they are temporarily in a wait-and-see state; At the beginning of this week, few Ukrainian steel mills released the export quotation of cold rolled steel coil, which was slightly higher than the current evaluation price.
In addition, on May 17, the export appraisal price of CIS medium and heavy plate (8-50mm) was US $980-990 / ton (FOB, Black Sea), unchanged from last week's price. At the beginning of this week, a Russian steel plant issued an export quotation of US $1245-1255 / T (FOB, Black Sea), but market analysis thinks that the quotation is too high at present.
