The company said, “The Company expects world ex-China apparent steel consumption to grow by 2.5% to 3.5% in 2025 as compared to 2024, which is expected to support steel shipment growth in 2025. Expectations for ASC by region in 2025: Europe flat products to grow 0% to 2%; US flat products to grow 1% to 3%; China to remain stable; Brazil to be stable and India to grow 6% to 7%. Whilst near-term demand is expected to remain subdued, given the low inventory environment, especially in Europe, the Company is optimistic that restocking activity will supplement real demand improvement in time.”
