The steel industry is cyclical and influenced by global economic conditions, infrastructure development, and demand from key sectors like automotive, construction, and manufacturing. The iron ore market is driven by demand from steel producers, primarily in China. The cement industry is closely tied to construction activity in regional markets.

Positioning

CSN is a vertically integrated company with operations across the steel, mining, cement, logistics, and energy sectors. This integration provides CSN with a competitive advantage in terms of cost control and supply chain management. However, it also exposes CSN to risks across multiple industries.
