) Chinese Steel Prices Improved, Iron Ore Prices Did Not

In February, steel prices rose, but steelmakers still reported losses of as much as $48.24 a ton. 15-month highs in the price of iron ore did not help the Chinese steel industry. This suggests that excess supply still remains for the steel industry.
