		<description><![CDATA[Earnings Preview 10/14/11 While the earnings season kicked off this past week, only 38 firms reported. The game really gets under way next week, when we will get reports from 336 firms, including 99 members of the S&#38;P 500. Thus, by the end of the week we will have a very good idea of how the overall season will go. Not only will there be a lot of reports, but many of those we get will be very important ones. The table at the end of this report reads like a who’s who of American industry, including: Apple (AAPL), American Express (AXP), Bank of America (BAC), Citigroup (C), General Electric (GE), Goldman Sachs (GS), IBM (IBM), Intel (INTC) and McDonald’s (MCD). And that&#8217;s just the first half of the alphabet! ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[AK Steel Holding Corporation (AKS) added a surcharge of $460 per ton for a broad range of electrical steel products that it produces. This surcharge will be reflected in the invoices of electrical steel products to be shipped in September 2011. The surcharge is calculated on the basis of reported prices for raw materials and energy used to manufacture products coupled with the July 2011 purchase cost.

		<description><![CDATA[With the second quarter reporting season getting into high gear, we get a torrent of earnings reports today, with a focus on banks.

The company recorded first-quarter 2011 EPS of $0.08, beating the year-ago quarter’s $0.02 and striding ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate for a loss of a penny. AK Steel expects a strong increase in shipments in the second quarter over the first quarter. The shipments are expected to be in the range of 1,500,000 and 1,550,000 tons. The company also anticipates its average per ton selling price to be 7% higher compared with the first quarter. The operating profit is expected to be approximately $65 per ton for the second quarter of fiscal 2011. We expect the company’s core operating results to be profitable by the second quarter of 2011, as higher carbon steel prices will more than ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[West Chester, Ohio-based flat-rolled steelmaker, AK Steel Corporation (AKS) announced that its #5 electric arc furnace (EAF) at its Butler, Pennsylvania Works was damaged on July 1, 2011, when molten steel inside the furnace breached the furnace shell harming certain components. Steel production at Butler Works resumed the following day using other electric furnaces at the plant that were not affected by the incident. The company announced that it did not expect customer shipments to be badly affected by the incident.  Examining the root cause being absolutely imperative, the company proposes to carry on with the investigation, while crews begin to repair the furnace and its auxiliary equipment. In April 2011, AK Steel posted its first-quarter results delivering an EPS of 8 cents compared with 2 cents during the year-ago ]]></description>

This surcharge will be reflected in the invoices of electrical steel products shipped in August 2011. The surcharge is calculated based on reported prices for raw materials and energy used to manufacture products coupled with the June 2011 purchase cost. For second-quarter 2011, management expects shipments to be in the range of 1,500,000 and 1,550,000 tons, indicating a substantial increase over the first-quarter shipments.

The industry is oligarchic in structure, with a few producers accounting for the lion’s share of the output. The largest segment of the global metals market is iron and steel followed by aluminum. The iron and steel segment comprises more than half the industry in terms of volume. This industry includes metal ore exploration and mining services, as well as iron and steel foundries for smelting, rolling, forging, spinning, recycling, stamping, polishing and plating of iron and steel products, such as pipes, tubes, wire, spring, rolls and bars.

		<description><![CDATA[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. Large automakers such as General Motors Company (GM), Ford Motor Company (F), Toyota Motor Corporation (TM) and Honda Motor ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With the gradual increase in the iron ore and coking coal prices due to increase in demand, AK Steel Holding Corporation (AKS) might consider obtaining raw material assets from outside. Acquiring pieces and parts of raw materials will help the company in lowering its costs. The profitability of the steel sector is closely tied to the prices of necessary raw materials. Considering the steel industry, these materials include iron ore, coal, coke, oxygen, chrome, nickel, silicon, molybdenum, zinc, limestone, carbon, stainless steel scrap, etc. Depending on the holdings of each firm, drastic changes in the prices of these raw materials can have profound effects on revenues and profits. We believe AK Steel is uniquely positioned to focus on products with high margins. Electrical steel continues to be the company’s strongest ]]></description>

		<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[The global Steel industry is rather concentrated in structure, with a few producers accounting for the lion’s share of sales. 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>

As of December 31, 2009, Steel Dynamics’ balance sheet reflected a total debt of $2.6 billion. The company’s debt-equity ratio was comfortable at 1.03 times that of December 31, 2009. The company’s net cash position (cash less total debt Incorporatedluding current portion) as of December 31 was a net deficit of $10.2 per share.

(STLD), the sixth-largest steel maker in the US, has commenced the production of the first batch of iron nuggets at the Mesabi Nugget facility at Hoyt Lakes, Minnesota, using the ITmk3® process developed by Kobe Steel Ltd. of Japan. This is the world&#8217;s first commercial production of nuggets using the ITmk3 process. Steel Dynamics has built the Minnesota nugget plant in cooperation with Kobe Steel, which has licensed the technology and provided equipment and technical support. Steel Dynamics has an 81% ownership in the plant. The company expects to utilize a substantial portion of the plant&#8217;s output as feedstock for its electric-arc furnace mini mills in Indiana acquired from OmniSource Corporation in 2007. Steel Dynamics plans to ramp up nugget production capacity at the plant to 500,000 ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Steel Dynamics Inc. (STLD), the nation&#8217;s fifth-largest producer of carbon steel products, has recently announced that it expects to earn between 10 cents and 20 cents per share in the fourth quarter of 2009, compared with the Zacks Consensus Estimate which is pegged at 23 cents. A year earlier, the company had reported a loss of 45 cents per share. Steel Dynamics had lost $83 million in the fourth quarter of 2008 as customers ordered less steel and the company had to lower steel prices. However, Steel Dynamics’ net income of 30 cents per diluted share in the third quarter of 2009, ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 23 cents, was driven by cost reduction through higher production and shipping volumes in the Flat-Rolled segment and a better-than-expected performance ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Metals &#38; Mining Industry encompasses the extraction (mining), as well as the primary and secondary processing, of metals and minerals. The industry is rather concentrated in structure, with a few producers accounting for the lion’s share of sales. Geographically, the Asia-Pacific region is witnessing higher production and consumption of metals, especially China and India. This is due to the per capita consumption in these two counties approaching the U.S./European levels, which could ? theoretically at least ? double metal demand in the longer term. Historically, the automotive and construction markets have been the largest drivers of metal consumption, more than 50% of the total demand. Other metal consuming industries include energy, electrical equipment, agricultural, domestic and commercial equipment and industrial machinery. Large automakers such as General Motors, Ford Motor ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The third largest steel maker in the US, Steel Dynamics Inc. (STLD) reported net income of $69 million ? or 30 cents per diluted share ? for the third quarter of 2009, after reporting losses for three consecutive quarters. The earnings, which were driven by cost reduction through higher production and shipping volumes at the Flat Roll Division and better-than-expected performance in the Metals Recycling segment, were higher than the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 23 cents. However, on a year over year basis, earnings were down 69%. Last month, Steel Dynamics had raised its earnings guidance for the reported quarter to a range of 20 cents to 25 cents per share from its previous guidance of 10 cents to 20 cents per share, citing continued strength in orders for flat-rolled ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Steel Dynamics Inc. (STLD), the sixth-largest steel maker in the U.S., recently boosted its third-quarter earnings forecast to a range of 20 cents to 25 cents per share, up slightly from its July view of 10 cents to 20 cents. The Zacks Consensus Estimate is pegged at 15 cents. The higher guidance was primarily driven by better-than-expected performance in the flat rolled steel and metals recycling divisions. The company’s flat rolled order is strong with bookings through October. Steel Dynamics became the largest producer of ferrous scrap after acquiring Indiana-based OmniSource Corp. in 2007. The company believes that its scrap business will be profitable in full year, reversing losses of about $9 million in the first half of 2009.
