Surprisingly good profit Strong net cash Good dividend & increasing Despite poor steel environment, raider thinks due to msia govt imposition of anti dumping measure on steel. CSC even without govt measures can still stand on its own
got it at quite attractive price. Now I think it's safe investment. I gave the hint at the right time few months ago, reproduced below.
bugle CSC Steel prepares for adverse conditions Sources: The Edge Financial Daily | December 28, 2015
Some Highlights
"For the cumulative nine-month period (9MFY15), CSC Steel registered a net profit of RM26.08 million compared with a RM12.25 million net loss previously, while revenue fell 1.5% to RM775.44 million from RM786.96 million in 9MFY14. ... “On top of that, due to fact that China Steel is our parent company, our orders usually enjoy a shorter delivery schedule, which is a kind of premium service, but the prices we pay remain at market rate,” he added. ... “Last year, we declared a three sen (dividend) despite incurring losses. This year, I think we may reward our shareholders since we are making a profit,” he said. 28/12/2015 22:24

EUROPEAN STEEL PRICES ADVANCE IN MARCH Mar 23, 2016 | WSN Admin | No comment | Steel Price News 00000000
European flat product transaction values rebounded, in March, as import pressure from non-EU suppliers declined.
In March’s issue of the European Steel Review, MEPS reports that European selling values increased, from relatively low levels, this month, after falling for much of last year.
Western European steelmakers announced their second price hike, since the start of the year. Buyers appear to be placing orders at the higher price level due to a lack of attractive import offers.
Quotations from Chinese mills rose significantly, this month. The introduction of preliminary antidumping duties on cold rolled coil from China and Russia also hampered import penetration from overseas suppliers.
In Germany, customers reported that order intake had improved. French service centres noted that flat product market activity remained firm, in March.
Positive price movements have been recorded in Italy. UK selling figures were boosted by improved distribution activity.
In Belgium, domestic figures are higher than those in February. Tighter supply availability lifted Spanish transaction values, this month.
Chinese steel mill bankruptcies are expected to begin choking capacity. As a result, steel supply will decline as overall global demand for steel in developed and emerging markets, such as China and Brazil are likely to continue growing year over year.
Steel Market Forecast for 2016 Slightly Optimistic
Steel market forecasts for 2016 call for a slight rebound in demand, which could boost depressed scrap metal prices.
Recovery is contingent upon consumption increasing in China, where demand and prices have dropped precipitously.
The World Steel Association (worldsteel) projects global steel demand to increase by 0.7 percent in 2016 after decreasing by 1.7 percent in 2015. “We expect the current headwinds to moderate in 2016 but this is based on a belief that the Chinese economy will stabilize,” World Steel Association Economics Committee Chairman Hans Jürgen Kerkhoff stated, in a release announcing the worldsteel Short Range Outlook 2015-2016.
Crude steel production declined by 3.1 percent in October in China compared to the previous year, mirroring a decrease of 3.1 percent in world crude steel production between the same periods, according to a worldsteel report on October 2015 crude steel production.
Steel prices have decreased by more than 33 percent in China in 2015, reaching a record low of 1,733 Chinese yuan (about $272) on Nov. 18. “With China producing 800 million tons of steel a year—four times more than any other country has ever produced—the sector is in severe overcapacity of some 400 million tons as construction slows in the world's second largest economy,” CNBC reported in an article on why China steel prices hit record lows.
Scrap metal prices have also plunged. Sims Metal Management cited a 30 percent drop in ferrous prices from mid-September to November in announcing cost-cutting initiatives for North American scrapyards on Nov. 18.
