Brazil extends deadline for steel antidumping probe
Brazil's foreign trade department Secex has extended for eight months the deadline for an antidumping investigation into flat-rolled steel products imported from Russia and China.
The probe covers alloy or non-alloy flat-rolled steel, plates and coils. The original deadline was May 20.

The decision to extend the deadline was published Monday in the federal government's official gazette.
