    Final Thoughts

    Written by John Packard


    I believe US Steel releases earnings after the close of the Stock Exchange on Tuesday and their earnings conference call will be held at 8:30 AM on Wednesday. Due to the issues the company had with two of their mills during the second quarter the expectation is USS will report a loss. I would expect one of the analysts to bring up questions related to the OCTG decision (which is not 100 percent complete yet  as we wait for the ITC final ruling) and the potential that the domestic steel mills will file more suits against Chinese cold rolled and possibly coated steels out of China, India, Taiwan and South Korea.

    AK Steel will release their earnings prior to the opening of the Stock Exchange on Tuesday and their conference call will be held at 11 AM ET on Tuesday, July 29th.
