Past Event Overview
Yet another fanstastic event for all the attendees last 26 June in Sydney. Respected steel market analyst and advisor Owen Birrell joined us to provide a market and construction outlook briefing. Owen shared practical insights on:
- How the on-again, off-again imposition of US tariffs have left global economies and steel markets in a state of flux this year
- Has the US found enough middle ground with its counterparts, or are we expecting further escalation?
- How have steel markets reacted to date and what is the outlook?
- What’s next?: Reciprocal tariffs due to come into effect on 9 July
