I really only worry about steel prices as it pays for my everyday items likes smokes and beer and some of the bills like my phone. other metals pay for my overhead costs which alu is the biggest because of ewaste but prices for alu would have to drop less than 20clb before it would affect anything else. steel here local dropped to 0.04lb now flat at 5.5clb so its ok.
ewaste prices higher are great but for me all that gold goes towards the future with a new house and new place to scrap from and more employees which I hope I can find some that last. that patience keeps me going as I can plan better and put the money to even greater use.
