Global Demand is strong.
Estimated usage is foreseen to rise 3% in 2018.
China is shutting down plants to cut pollution.
These plants have long caused the market to be flooded with too much supply.
Trade defenses have been strengthened after China's so-called steel dumping.
China's exports have dropped to the lowest since 2014, and further cuts are expected to come.
