Final Thoughts

I spent all day on Wednesday of this week in the Pittsburgh offices of the CRU Group. I was impressed with the people working out of Pittsburgh and was even more impressed with the size and scope of the company here in the United States and across the world. The company indexes all kinds of metals from zinc to aluminum, pig iron, scrap, iron ore to various grades of steel from around the world. CRU maintains cost models on steel production and supports a robust consulting service.

I think those of you who will be attending the SMU Steel Summit Conference this year will have an opportunity to network with a number of the CRU Group team from here in the United States, as well as a number of the management team from London, including the Executive Chairman, Robert Perlman, who will speak with me one-on-one during the last program of the conference on Wednesday afternoon.
