BlueScope Steel Stock Trades Near Highs as ASX Watches Steel Tariff Dispute
BlueScope Steel traded at A$33.19 before Wednesday’s ASX open, near its 2026 high and up 4.6% for the week. Australia’s Anti-Dumping Commission found Chinese exporters circumvented steel duties, recommending new tariffs on welded pipe and tube with holes. BlueScope’s Orrcon unit is at the center of the case, which has drawn criticism from both steel and solar industry groups.
