Uncertainty surrounding tariffs imposed by US President Donald Trump has prompted the World Steel Association (worldsteel) to postpone its April 2025 Short Range Outlook (SRO), Kallanish discovers from an association press release.
“Worldsteel believes that the imposition of tariffs by the US administration could render the SRO outdated,” states the press release. “The SRO will be reviewed and reissued at an appropriate time.”
Brussels, Belgium-based worldsteel issues a biannual SRO for steel demand coinciding with its general meetings of members in April and October.
The organisation is one of the industry’s largest global associations, with members in every major steel-producing country.
