Headquartered in West Chester, Ohio (Greater Cincinnati), AK Steel is a leading producer of flat-rolled carbon and carbon and stainless tubular products, primarily for automotive, infrastructure and manufacturing, construction and electrical power generation and distribution markets. The company is headquartered in West Chester, Ohio (Greater Cincinnati), and operates eight steel plants, two coke plants and two tube manufacturing plants across six states (Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia) and one tube plant in Mexico.

Due to the U.S. Trade Regulators beginning to add heavy tariffs on Chinese steel, AKS is up in the market. Domestic steel manufacturers can now compete within the country because they don’t have a flooded market of cheap Chinese steel. Tariffs were raised on Chinese steel due to the loophole they created, shipping their steel through Vietnam to avoid the antidumping tariffs. As a domestic steel producer in the U.S. this would greatly help increase its top-line as AKS may become a cheaper alternative than similar producers in China.

This bullish forecast on AKS was sent to current I Know First subscribers on November 8th, 2016. 

Before making any trading decisions, consult the latest forecast as the algorithm constantly updates predictions daily. While the algorithm can be used for intra-day trading the predictability tends to become stronger with forecasts over longer time-horizons such as the 1-month, 3-month and 1-year forecasts.
