The German scrap market is bracing for a subdued trading period in December. Industry experts predict that the demand for scrap metal will remain low, influenced by seasonal factors and reduced activity in the steel sector. This anticipated downturn follows a trend observed in previous years, where the market typically experiences a slowdown during the final month of the year.

Market participants are preparing for a challenging period, with expectations of limited transactions and stable to slightly lower prices. The outlook for January remains uncertain, with hopes pinned on a potential recovery in the new year.
