South Korea’s Hyundai Steel is likely to hike HRC prices following POSCO’s price hike announcement recently. POSCO had increased Apr’22 sales prices by KRW 100,000/t ($82/t) on 16 Mar. Market participants anticipate Hyundai to increase prices by a similar margin, although some sources believe prices could be raised even higher due to increased cost burden amid rising raw material prices.
