European stainless steel flat and long products monthly assessments

European stainless steel flat and long product monthly assessments were not included in the Dec. 21-23 issues of Steel Price Report. The assessment values were unchanged from Dec. 1 as these products are assessed monthly. Prices in the Dec. 28 issue are reflective of levels during the prior week.

S&P Global Platts previously announced the discontinuation of several European stainless assessments from Jan. 1, 2022, due to changing market dynamics.
