People in the manufacturing community have a lot of love and skepticism when it comes to advanced technology. Just look at robots. They are more productive than humans for certain tasks, but they also are looked at as replacements for human workers. This is a case where both observations are rooted in fact. Robots do take over certain tasks that were once done by humans, but those robotic installations also end up creating more job opportunities, whether they might be technicians or programmers.

OEMs typically take downtime in June and July. It’s one of the reasons why you rarely see prices shoot higher in the early summer. (I sometimes wonder why mills do outages in the spring when their customers do them in the summer, but I digress.)Sure, mills might announce price hikes over the summer, but often it’s to try to slow any price declines.
