After-hours trading on October 7
The prior close at Lang & Schwarz was EUR 57.93 on October 6, 2026. The bid was EUR 55.58 and the ask was EUR 55.68. The quote was below the previous session’s reference price in the after-hours market. The further course of after-hours trading at Lang & Schwarz until 11:00 p.m. CEST is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of ArcelorMittal stock.
Pecém expansion under consideration
According to Shanghai Metals Market, the proposed project would add a hot-rolled-coil line at the integrated Pecém facility. The report said the potential investment would shift the plant’s product mix away from exports of semi-finished slabs and toward finished flat products for the Brazilian market. The report described the project as under consideration, rather than as a completed investment or approved transaction.
The Pecém development is separate from the October 7 Lang & Schwarz price indication. The euro quote reflects trading in Germany after the Xetra session and is stated against the prior close at the same venue.
