Mechanic, I am pretty sure he is talking about his prices to the mill. You might see sideways or up 10 or 20 bucks. Nothing significant though. Which is good after 5 straight months of down and one month of up prices.

Yeap, would would have to sit up all night to gard your shred pile. You think there's a lot of scrappers now, let the price go up to 20.00 per 100#.

Wow @ $20/100lb!!! And here I thought I was doing well at $0.1025/lb for shred. My yard calls it sheet iron (shred). That would be nice, but i am doubtful that us scrappers would ever see such a price at a scrap yard. Still, dreaming never hurts ya, well not too bad at least, ha ha.

I think if he could predict the market like that, he probably would lounging on a beach somewhere sipping drinks with umbrellas. Take his advice with a grain of salt. I have heard the market will be positive in Sept, but we will likely see steel numbers get close to where they were 3 months ago.

Sheet iron by me was $230 a ton in May, went down to $140 in July and I just called them they said $180. $400 a ton would be crazy! I need to get that insurance check and get a new truck soon!
