United States Steel Corporation Research Report

After 38 years of service with United States Steel, Michael Meyers retires from being the company's General Manager - Sales.

Caldwell will assume responsibility for the sales activities for the company's service center, pipe and tube converter, agricultural and industrial equipment customers. In January, United States Steel reported solid Q4 2012 results, its third consecutive quarter with all the segments having positive operating results despite uncertainty in the global economy. For the current fiscal year the company expects a slight improvement in the European and Tubular segment, and the flat-rolled segment expected to be near breakeven. Five cents per share dividend on common stock is payable on March 8.

Nucor Corporation Research Report

Nucor's Q4 2012 earnings were within the guidance range due to operating profits that beat expectations. The company's Q1 2013 earnings expectations, however, are below the Q4 level due to lower level of operating performance. The company is also cautious about the construction markets. The iron and steel industry is currently going through a difficult phase due to insufficient demand for steel products. The financial crisis in Europe is another area of concern for companies. Nevertheless, Nucor remains optimistic as it has a diversified client base, which makes it not highly dependent on the conditions prevalent in a particular region. Its strongest end market is the manufactured goods, including automotive, energy and heavy equipment. On April 15 the company will release its Q1 2013 earnings result.

Gerdau SA Research Report

In 2012, Gerdau saw an increase in costs of important raw materials, including scrap and freight, which affected the sector's profitability. In this perspective, the company plans to enhance its operational efficiency in all its markets, driven by the strategy of striving for higher levels of profitability and sustainable development. One of the company's initiatives is to increase investments in the mining area to add more profit and generate significant results. In Q1 2013 Gerdau plans to expand the product mix in Brazil with the start of production of flat steel products. Diversification also helps the company to gain significant growth potential.

The company's quarterly EPS was at 27 cents on revenues of $1.7 billion, six cents higher than the preceding quarter. With the US economy, one of the company's biggest catalysts, and the steel industry slowly recovering, it expects to do well in the coming years. Steel Dynamics remain optimistic that the organic growth projects that it has identified in 2012 will position the company to continue to build a strong enterprise. The company also sees potential in the automotive and manufacturing sectors, believing them to build momentum in 2013.
