FOR RELEASE AT 10:00 AM EST, MONDAY, JANUARY 27, 2020

PRELIMINARY: U.S. IMPORTS FOR CONSUMPTION OF STEEL PRODUCTS, December 2019 Release Number: CB 20-14 FT-900A (19-12)

January 27, 2020 — The U.S. Census Bureau announced today that preliminary December steel imports were $1.4 billion (1.4 million metric tons) compared to the preliminary November totals of $1.4 billion (1.4 million metric tons).

The December change in steel imports based on metric tonnage reflected increases in hot rolled sheets, plates in coils, and cold rolled sheets. Decreases occurred in blooms, billets and slabs; reinforcing bars; and hot rolled bars. Increases occurred primarily with Canada, Mexico, and Australia. Decreases occurred primarily with Russia, Turkey, and Korea.

The year to date final statistics through November 2019 showed steel imports of 23.9 million metric tons compared with 28.9 million metric tons through November 2018. The largest commodity decreases occurred primarily in blooms, billets and slabs. Increases occurred primarily in black plate, tin free steel, and steel piling. The largest country decreases occurred primarily with Russia. Increases occurred primarily with Spain, Ukraine, and South Africa.

The January report is scheduled for release on February 26, 2020. View the full schedule at: <www.census.gov/foreign-trade/reference/release_schedule.html> The full text and tables for this release can be found at <www.census.gov/foreign-trade/Press-Release/steel_index.html>.

EXPLANATORY NOTES

The data in this report are preliminary and subject to revisions. Analysis of recent months for steel product imports indicates the value of preliminary data should equal about 96 percent of the final value reported in the regular monthly trade statistics report. Preliminary data reported for individual steel categories and at the individual country of origin level have been less consistently predictive of the final data reported in the regular monthly trade statistics. For further details, visit our web site at <www.census.gov/trade>. On the website, you can access product by country and country by product tables.
