		<description><![CDATA[We are maintaining our Neutral recommendation on diversified specialty materials producer Allegheny Technologies (ATI). Its fourth-quarter 2011 earnings per share of 31 cents missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 54 cents. However, profit (as reported) more than doubled year over year to $31.7 million. Revenues increased at a healthy double-digit clip to $1.25 billion, driven by increased shipments for most high-value products, higher raw material surcharges and increase in the average base selling prices for many products. However, sales missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.31 billion. Moving ahead, Allegheny expects revenue growth to be at least 10% year over year in 2012. The company expects to continue to benefit from its new alloys and products, diversified global growth markets and differentiated product mix.

		<description><![CDATA[Overview The World Steel industry is rather concentrated in structure, with a few producers accounting for the lion’s share of sales. Steel products are classified into four broad categories: flat steel products, long steel products, scrap and semi-finished products. Flat products include plates, hot-rolled strip and sheets and cold-rolled strip and sheets. The long steel product category comprises wire rods, beams, reinforced bars and merchant bars. The products under both these categories are rolled from steel slabs, which are considered as unfinished or semi-finished products that are generally not sold. Historically, the automotive and construction markets have remained the largest consumers of steel, absorbing more than half of the total steel produced.

		<description><![CDATA[by Marc Lichtenfeld, Senior Analyst, Investment U Wednesday, June 22, 2011: Issue #1540 While most investors are focused on precious metals, I prefer to look for investment opportunities in markets less traveled. Sure, precious metals are still wildly popular – or not popular enough – depending on who you ask. And they’re always in the mainstream consciousness. Either the dollar is going to be worthless and gold and silver will be the only true stores of value, or precious metals are in a bubble and will correct to more reasonable levels. Again, it depends who you ask. But there’s another type of metal that I have my eye on. It’s one that hasn’t enjoyed the kind of run-up that gold and silver had recently.

		<description><![CDATA[One of the world’s largest specialty metals producers Allegheny Technologies Incorporated (ATI) signed a long-term contract with Rolls-Royce for the supply of ATI 718Plus Alloy for the period stretching from 2011 till 2024. The ATI 718Plus is a nickel based super-alloy that is used to manufacture various jet engine parts.

		<description><![CDATA[No less than five steel stocks currently carry the esteemed Zacks #1 Rank (strong buy) this week. And four of the five have been there for over a month. In the list below, the first three are classified as standard producers and occupy a Zacks Industry Rank of 163, near the bottom of the Neutral category. The last two names are considered &#8220;specialty&#8221; steel companies and their industry grouping holds the 26th spot, making it very worthy of attention. AK Steel (AKS): Zacks #1 Rank since April 1, largely because consensus earnings estimates have risen in the last 90 days from $0.84 to $1.26 for this year, and from $1.46 to $1.87 for 2012. Olympic Steel (ZEUS): Zacks #1 Rank since May 10, due to analyst estimate revisions in the ]]></description>

ArcelorMittal (MT) is the world’s largest steel company, with projected crude steel production of 90.6 million tons in 2011. Steel products can be classified into four broad categories: flat steel products, long steel products, scrap and semi-finished products. Flat products include plates, hot-rolled strip and sheets, and cold-rolled strip and sheets. The long steel product category comprises wire rods, beams, reinforced bars and merchant bars. The products under both these categories are rolled from steel slabs, which are considered as unfinished or semi-finished products that are generally not sold. Historically, the automotive and construction markets have remained the largest consumers of steel, absorbing more than half of total steel produced. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you lived through the Great Depression, you’d likely remember the song: “Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?” These days, commodity investors are singing a slightly different tune: “Brother, Can You Spare a Nickel.” And they’re singing it for very different reasons. You see, the value of the metal in a U.S. 5-cent coin now stands at 6.2 cents. Nickel has jumped about 45% since the start of 2010, while copper and aluminum have risen merely 5%. And since its low point in late 2008, the commodity’s price has more than tripled to $27,500 a ton thanks to strong demand from the stainless steel industry along with supply disruptions. This year’s upswing will have a significant impact on mining companies such as Brazil’s Vale ADR (NYSE: VALE) and Russia’s Norilsk ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The recent health care reform has caused unrest amongst the US employers, who will now have to spend more on their employees’ medical plans. The new reform has made taxable the subsidies on retiree drugs offered by the government. Companies that provide prescription drug benefits for retirees have been getting subsidies covering 28% of eligible costs but were allowed a 100% deduction as costs. Therefore, the subsidies received were also allowed to be deducted for computation of taxable income. However, from 2013, the health care reform will allow companies to deduct only the amount of money that is actually expended on medical cost and the subsidies will be taxable. Earlier this month, the US government had signed the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act into law. Under this law, the ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently, Precision Castparts Corp. (PCP), a diversified manufacturer of complex metal components and products, has completed its acquisition of Carlton Forge Works in Paramount, California. Carlton is a leading manufacturer of seamless rolled rings of nickel, titanium and steel for utilization primarily in aircraft engine (80%) and gas turbine (20%) applications. Precision Castparts has also acquired Arcturus Manufacturing Corporation, a hammer forging operation in Oxnard, California. Precision acquired both Carlton and Arcturus for $850 million. The acquisitions are all-cash deals and are financed primarily through current cash balances and small levels of debt.
