I'm amazed how cheap that sounds. Does that mean that for a cost of a decent laptop I could get two tons of steel delivered?
I only know a little about steel prices from being a hobby machinist, but I know a bit more about hay prices. For the price of a cheap laptop, you can get two tons of hay delivered :-)
Hot rolled in US is 928$ per metric ton
Hot rolled in EU is 620$ per metric ton
China is in the mid 500s.
Unclear to me if the new US tariffs are to blame, gap is larger than the 25% I expected.
