It is reported that a Taiwanese hot rolled mill has suspended offering quotations for new orders since its production is fully booked until the end of 2009.

Meanwhile, cold rolled mills say that they will offer new prices after their upstream supplier, China Steel Corporation, announced its new list prices in late November.

It is said that earlier a supplier offered hot rolled coil at USD 520 per tonne FOB.
