Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential impact of international trade agreements or tariffs, which might affect import volumes.
- Technological advancements in stainless steel production and welding, possibly influencing domestic production versus re-importing.
- Environmental regulations that could alter the dynamics of steel usage and sourcing strategies.
