AK Steel CEO Points Out Foreign Import Excesses
Written by John Packard
AK Steel CEO, James Wainscott, spoke to analysts this morning regarding AK Steel 4th Quarter and calendar year 2014 earnings. We have a separate article which speaks to their earnings. What we have done is to point on some of the highlights of the call from our perspective:
AK Steel did a major reline of the Ashland blast furnace for the first time in three decades. The furnace, which one year ago was causing AK major headaches, is operating well and they do not expect to do any more work on the furnace until 2019.
