Year-to-date (YTD) shipments through September totaled 66,783,001 tons, down 2.5% compared to 68,464,921 tons shipped during the same period one year ago.
Comparing YTD shipments in 2023 to the first nine months of 2022 shows the following changes: hot rolled sheet, up 7 %; corrosion-resistant sheet, down 2%; and cold-rolled sheet remains unchanged.
