Steel prices inched up in the context of China's "zero Covid" policy. China's steel output in November 2021 reached 69.3 million tons, 22% lower than the same period in 2021 and is the 6th consecutive month of decreasing output because of China's policy to cut emissions into the environment. The country and the construction industry slowed down.

Aluminum prices are expected to remain high in the near term because of high demand and low supply, especially in Europe. China recently asked the aluminum industry to reduce emissions by 5% into the environment and this policy will affect the country's aluminum output.
