Thanks. What about BOOM? Know much about them?

I don't think that their success or failure depends on the health of the steel industry. I think they are tied to the oil industry and reconstruction more than anything else. Looks like a good play on hurricane damage... but I'm not well versed in their operations to know much more.

I am involved in the steel industry... I know it better than any analyst or fund manager... that I CAN be 100% sure of. I knew of the current up trend about 1.5 years ago. Here are the stocks which I list as my steel industry index through Yahoo! Some are not steel producers or fabricators, but their business depends, in large part, to the health of the steel industry:

Peanut's Steel Index

Isn't there already a steel industry index? Anyway, yeah peanuts, if you've got a list, that would be great - I can make it a portfolio at marketwatch or elsewhere and get a quick look at news or commentary on all of them at a glance.

I took $6.95 for SIM

p.s. I'm impressed that I sold 3000 shares all in one block , considering the relatively low volume and I was right at the bid. I expected it to be piecemealed (sp?).

That is surprising, my trades have been executed a few hundred at a time. Given the strength of the sector, I'm holding out for more this time, maybe 7.50 or 8.00. Will just have to watch the action.

This is cool. Thanks. There is so much for me to learn, it's depressing sometimes.

I have a steel industry index with approx 35 stocks that I have set up from the beginning of this year which tracks the overall industry moves and has been great for what you are looking for. If you want more info, I'd be happy to share.

also, I'm 100% out of SIM... got a nice 6% myself

greb, do you follow any other steelmakers as an indicator of possible SIM moves?

For example, this morning I saw STLD up about 4% and SIM not up at that time. Took the opportunity to buy before it caught up. Obviously, there's always the chance it won't. For each of my stocks, I try to find at least one other (usually a larger, more well covered one) to use to follow industry developments and price movements.

I dont typically do this , althoug I have been attracted to some cheaper restoration stocks because of HOM, ie RGMI

I will try your suggestion and see what I could gain from this.

You have played that better than me, I am still holding and admire your flip. I may join you on the next run.

Sim, sim, salabim?

Sold the SIM today for $6.92. 5%, one week.
Like the stock, but decided just to play the oversold bounce.
May try it again later.
