Brazil steel output may recover in “2014 general election year”

Lopez, the CEO of Brazil Iron and Steel Association——IABr, said on 4, Nov. that Brazil steel output will increase in 2014, because Brazil will have general election in 2014 and the national industrial plan and automobile revolution project will also thrust the output (includes anchor) to some extent.  

Currently, the global steel output is close to 0.6 billion tons. In the beginning of the second half year, IABr reduced the expectation of steel output (includes anchor) increase, and set it equal to the 34.5 million tons in 2012. According to the latest data, from Jan. to Sep. 2013, Brazil steel output declined 0.6%.
