American Metal Market is a sister publication to London-based Metal Bulletin and was subsidiary of international publishing group Euromoney Institutional Investor. Metal Bulletin acquired AMM in April 2001.[2] Both AMM and Metal Bulletin were part of a Euromoney subsidiary known as Fastmarkets.[3]
In July 2022. Euromoney agreed to be sold to a pair of private equity (PE) companies. In the reorganization that followed, Fastmarkets was put under the management of PE company Astorg, which was one of the two PE companies that bought Euromoney.[4]
First published in 1882 as a weekly news and price paper and never having missed a scheduled publication date, American Metal Market is considered the longest continuously published newspaper in the industry.[1] In April 2002, the daily publication switched from a traditional, hard-copy newspaper to a strictly electronic format, in which form it remains today.
