WORLD CRUDE STEEL PRODUCTION RISES TO A 14-MONTH HIGH 20-11-2009
   According to data from the World Steel Association, October world crude steel production hit a 14-month high of 112.2 Mt, posting a 13% increase year-on-year. This is the second month in a row when global steel output represented a year-on-year increase. The majority of this increase was due to China and the CIS, which registered growth of 42.4% and 26.9% year-on-year with monthly production at 51.7 Mt and 9.0 Mt respectively. Annual declines were pronounced in the US (-12.4% to 5.9 Mt), Japan (-12.9% to 8.8 Mt) and the EU (-12.1% to 14.1 Mt).
