China Magnesium Metal: Prelim Results of AD Admin Review

The Commerce Department issued the preliminary results of its antidumping duty administrative review on magnesium metal from China (A-570-896) (here). The agency again said the only companies under review, Tianjin Magnesium International Co., Ltd. and Tianjin Magnesium Metal, Co., Ltd., had no exports of subject merchandise to the U.S. during the period under review. If Commerce's "no shipments" finding for TMI and TMM is continued in the final results, subject merchandise from the companies will continue to enter at AD rates set in the most recent previous review, and any entries filed with TMI or TMM's case number during the period of review will be liquidated at the China-wide rate. Commerce will make its final decision when it issues the final results of this review, currently due in May.
