ArcelorMittal Too Heavy to be Affected by Shift to Lighter Automobiles
ArcelorMittal ( MT ) is the largest producer of steel in the world, and not by any small margin. Still, the growing focus on lighter metals in the automobile manufacturing process could be a possible source of concern for the company. ArcelorMittal, formed in 2006 by the merger of two steel giants (Arcelor and Mittal), competes with other international steel companies like BaoSteel, Posco ( PKX ), Nippon Steel and ThyssenKrupp.
