Cost of steel manufacturing in China is going up, dollar value down, or maybe the Chinese are figuring out they have us between a rock and a hard place and are starting to turn the screws?

Meaning? Means little or means they will get little because of it? Or that farmers don't use enough fasteners to affect their bottom line?
