Die Zahlen fallen sicher besser aus als das letzte Mal!
... und ich werde meine letzte Position glatt stellen, ich glaube noch immer an das vorläufige Ende der Investitionswelle. Überall hört man 2004 wird ein tolles Börsenjahr: .. und wenn alle daran glauben, dann findet es so bestimmt nicht statt!
Ist aber eine individuelle Entscheidung, und AK Steel ist kein schlechter Wert um auch die vermeintliche Delle an den Börsen durchzustehen!

Ich habe mir die Entwicklung wirklich anders vorgestellt. Eigentlich hatte ich mit einem Kursanstieg nach oder vor den Zahlen gerechnet, tatsächlich ging es in den Keller und ganz gewaltig. (Wenn man es genau betrachtet wohl weil der ganze Markt gefallen ist und nicht weil speziell AKS enttäuscht hatte) Heute scheint das alles wieder vergessen zu sein und die Aktie bewegt sich weiter nach oben. Na ja gute Einstiegskurse sind das alle mal...

No Signs Of Hiring Among Russell's Top 4Q Performers
Monday February 9, 1:11 pm ET
By Cynthia Schreiber, Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES
NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Despite big gains in the fourth quarter, the top 10 performers on the Russell 2000 Index of small stocks aren't showing signs of hiring more workers.
In fact, the top-percentage gainer on the list - AK Steel Holding Corp. (NYSE:AKS - News) - said it would cut its payrolls by 475, or 20% of its salaried work force, in the fourth quarter, even as its stock surged 155%.
Of course, stock prices aren't coincident indicators of job growth but rather are indicators of future earnings or business activity, which ultimately could correlate with hiring. A number of factors could cause a stock to rise, ranging from interest rates to profit predictions to "the mood of the buying public," noted James Furey, head of small-cap strategy at Lehman Brothers Inc.
Yet the divide between rising stock prices and sluggish job growth points out a paradox. When choosing a stock, investors want a company that is profitable, whether it is adding jobs or not. But when choosing between the stock market and another asset class such as bonds or cash, investors want an economy that is expanding through strong, steady job growth.
"People are looking for confirmation of a growth spiral," said Lee Price, research director of the Economic Policy Institute in Washington. That is, for investors to keep pumping money into the stock market, they need to see evidence that people are getting jobs and are spending their incomes on goods and services to the extent that companies need to hire more workers to keep up with the demand.
But just the opposite seems to be occurring on a stock-specific level, where companies are laying off employees to cut costs and stay competitive.
As part of its effort to return to profitability, for example, AK Steel said its job cuts should result in annual savings of about $35 million, starting this year. In the fourth quarter of last year, the company sharply narrowed its net loss to $163.9 million, or $1.51 a share, from $489.7 million, or $4.54 a share, a year earlier.
"We still face significant cost pressures," said Alan McCoy, a spokesman for AK Steel. "It's not an industry where job growth is realistic."
Indeed, AK Steel isn't alone in an industry challenged by significantly higher energy and raw material costs. Steel producer Allegheny Technologies Inc. (NYSE:ATI - News) cut its salaried work force by about 276 employees, or 10%, in the fourth quarter. During that time, its stock rose 103%, making it the 10th largest percentage gainer on the Russell 2000.
In between are eight companies that operate in a variety of industries, from fragrance maker Inter Parfums Inc. (NasdaqNM:IPAR - News) to peanut distributor John B. Sanfilippo & Son . Their stock prices more than doubled in the fourth quarter. But none of these companies announced changes to their work forces in the fourth quarter. Company representatives either declined or weren't available to comment on their outlook for hiring.
Productivity gains through technology and longer work hours help explain how companies are able to increase their output without expanding their payrolls. But the lack of job growth is particularly disconcerting among smaller companies where the first signs of job growth are expected to show. The thinking is that hiring by smaller companies would precede hiring by larger companies, where signs of temporary or part-time employment would lead the way.
"No one is going to jump in the water," said Rick Cobb, executive vice president of outplacement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas. "They are going to dip their toe in."

AK Steel Sets World Casting Record
Wednesday February 11, 3:39 pm ET
MIDDLETOWN, Ohio, Feb. 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- AK Steel (NYSE: AKS - News) said employees at its Middletown, Ohio steel plant have set a world record for consecutive heats of carbon steel cast on a two strand continuous caster. In a sequence that began on December 28, 2003, crews at Middletown Works cast 1,354 consecutive heats of steel. The sequence was ended on February 5, 2004 for a planned maintenance outage.
"Achieving a world casting record is an extraordinary performance by AK Steel employees," said James L. Wainscott, president and chief executive officer of AK Steel. "My congratulations go to each Middletown Works employee who contributed to this record-setting effort."
Caster employees worked accident-free during the record-breaking run. During the sequence, the shop produced 300,588 tons of carbon steel slabs. Employees in the maintenance, transportation and blast furnace departments also contributed to the record performance.
AK Steel holds two other sequential casting records. The company's Ashland, Kentucky Works set a world record for consecutive heats of carbon steel continuously cast on a single strand caster. They set that record on September 26, 2002 when crews achieved 1,851 consecutive heats of steel. And, AK Steel's Mansfield, Ohio Works holds the world record for sequential casting of Type 409 stainless steel (32 consecutive heats) reached in October 2002.
AK Steel produces flat-rolled carbon, stainless and electrical steel products for automotive, appliance, construction and manufacturing markets, as well as tubular steel products. The company has plants and offices in Middletown, Coshocton, Mansfield, Walbridge and Zanesville, Ohio; Ashland, Kentucky; Rockport and Columbus, Indiana; and Butler, Pennsylvania. In addition, the company produces snow and ice control products and operates an industrial park on the Houston, Texas ship channel.

also ich weiß nur, dass Stahl(Edelstahl) immer teurer wird.
Somit auch Nickel usw..
Ich arbeite für die Getränkeindustrie (Krones AG, Alcoa) und da sind
die Auftragsbücher voll.
Auch in Asien bauen wir immer mehr Brauereien, Abfüllanlagen.
Außerdem braucht Asien in Zukunft jede Menge Stahl.

Meine ich auch! Ich finde die asiatischen Stahlhändler auch interessant, Isteel z.B. hat auch ganz gute Chancen wie ich finde. Der teure Stahlpreis hilft sicher den angeschlagenen amerikanischen Stahlproduzenten, auch ohne Importzölle werden die so wieder konkurrenzfähig, trotz der hohen Kosten für Rohstoffe und Gehälter.
Die Hausse bei den chinesischen Stahlproduzenten läuft schon eine ganze Weile und auch wenn ich die genauen Umstände der einzelnen Firmen nicht so gut kenne, würde ich eher auf die noch Firme setzen, die noch in der Krise stecken.
