The AI's read
Record shipments and mills running at 92%, compared with 80% across the domestic industry, show Steel Dynamics kept its plants busy. Management also reported growing orders, expected price gains, and strong cash from operations. The slight miss against the company’s earlier forecast came from currency changes and aluminum hedging. Aluminum operations still need improvement, but management expects better results, and the company reported strong demand across its steel markets.
