I spoke with a couple of the "junkyards" around here, and its my understanding, though I can't remember which country(s) were mentioned, but China and other buyers are purchasing scrap from India, etc. rather than the U.S. as of now. When those run low, or price goes up, scrap metal purchasers will begin buying from the U.S. again. All of the aforementioned posts add into the low prices. I was a trash hauler for awhile,
and there are magazines, etc in that industry which help serve as a guide. However, it is kind of a waiting game, as you all know.
I've a scrap pile I use for fabrication or wait for prices to go up,
but since turning colder, all rodents, rabbits, etc are homing in there. Thus, my dogs are coming in with severe lacerations on their paws. Expensive. I'm gonna have to part with my scrap, hate to. Around here it is a penny a pound for bailing material.
So, I'm losing money due to suture vet bills, dog-gone-it.
I don't know the answer, just thought I'd throw that out there.
