[TheForge] price of steel

[Paul Novorolsky]

Ugh. I was just placing an order for some steel. A-36 is in the $1.35/lb 
range, and 1018(cold rolled) is up in the $2.20/lb range. Is that about 
"normal" these days?

Today's news in the financial world is that the steel suppliers are 
reducing their outlook. US Steel is down like 8% today. Maybe the 
bargain today is in steel stock, not the actual product.
