Key Takeaways

• The CSP HRC base price moved higher again for the week of August 24, and one producing mill carries a base price meaningfully above the rest.
• Two raw material inputs posted sharp weekly gains at the same time, with one reaching a level not seen since 2022, though neither feeds the pricing move announced this week.
• Master labor agreements at two integrated producers expire in days, and economic bargaining had not opened at one of them as of the most recent official update.
