As predicted, European steel prices climbed higher over the last fortnight, and we believe that there is still more room to the upside. In our view, the second quarter should start on a strong foot: We expect that prices in both the long and flat steel segments will tick about 7 to 10% above current levels by the middle of Q2/10. According to our model, European wire rod prices may average about 7% above current levels, while hot-rolled coils may gain even more. The driving forces behind this continuous trend are sustained gains in raw material prices.

NON FERROUS ANALYSIS 4 MARCH 2010. by Gianclaudio Torlizzi
Our forecast calls for further gains in the base metals markets over the next 4 weeks. Aluminum prices at the London Metals Exchange (LME) may make up for some of their recent losses and trend up by as much as 5% by the end of March. The market was nearly flat last month, but suffered steep losses in January. Copper, on the other hand, may rise less than our base price trend line suggests, as the red metal already gained considerably in recent trading sessions on the back of supply uncertainties after the Chilean earthquake. Copper gained roughly 6% in London trading last month and started strong into the month of March due to panic buying.
