NEW YORK (Scrap Register): United States shredded scrap prices remained stable during the week ended January 20, while major US aluminum scrap commodities weekly average prices on Scrap Register Price Index stayed steady.
According to TSI, US Shredded Scrap Index remained flat during the week at $312 a long ton. US East Coast export yards have dropped their buying prices $10-15 a long ton this week and market participants are anticipating further declines, as reported by S&P Global Platts. 
The price cuts came about after a cargo sale came to light that was completed late last week at $282 a ton CFR Turkey for HMS 80:20. This broke a month-long quiet period for US-Turkey sales. Many US players have pointed to a “soft” market looking ahead.
