    Today’s issue is our 150th Executive newsletter (Volume 11, Issue 150). We averaged 11.4 articles per issue so we published 1718 articles. On top of that we published 51 Premium newsletters which average 2.5 articles per issue for another 124 articles. We have produced thousands of graphics, many of which our readers are able to access through our website. We conducted 24 flat rolled steel market trends surveys. Premium readers are provided a Power Point of our survey results with an average of 50 slides per Power Point or 1,200 slides over the course of the year.

    At the same time we conducted three Steel 101: Introduction to Steel Making & Market Fundamentals workshops (Columbus, Mississippi with SDI, Sylvania, Ohio with NorthStar Bluescope and Memphis, Tennessee with Big River Steel). All three workshops were sold out and we are looking to expand to four workshops in 2017 to accommodate all of the companies interested in sending employees to this workshop.
