StockCall Study on AK Steel, Companhia Siderurgica Nacional, Steel Dynamics, and Tenaris
LONDON, April 17, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Over the past decade, the steel & iron industry has seen strong demand from China. The world's fastest growing major economy, however, saw a slowdown in 2012. This had a negative impact on demand for steel & iron. While concerns over a hard landing in China have eased, the world's second largest economy is not expected to grow at the same pace as it did in the past decade. One positive for steel & iron companies such as AK Steel Holding Corporation (NYSE: AKS), Companhia Siderurgica Nacional (NYSE: SID), Steel Dynamics Inc. (NASDAQ: STLD), and Tenaris S.A. (NYSE: TS) has been a rebound in construction activity in the U.S. Steel & iron stocks ended mostly higher on Tuesday, tracking gains in the broad market.
