Steel production declined 6.0% from October to November, totaling 136.3 million metric tons in the latest total reported by the World Steel Assn. The new figure represents a 3.7% year-over-year increase, and brings the global raw-steel production total through November to 1.54 billion metric tons, a 4.3% year-to-date improvement.
