Re: Vale (RIO) cuts off iron ore… and China goes shopping

"Significant Chinese government ownership is also present in Jiangsu Shagang Group, which is billed as the largest private steel enterprise in China and the countryâs fourth largest steel producer.7 The firm was formed in 1975 as a village enterprise,8 and changed its name to Jiangsu Shagang Group in 1995.

The firmâs ownership status changed in 2001, during a period of asset stripping management buyouts in the Chinese steel industry. Approximately 17 percent of the firm was purchased by the plant general manager and 25 percent of the firm was sold to the Jiangsu SASAC. An additional 23 percent went to the companyâs labor union, which is controlled by the Chinese Communist Party, 9 and almost 35 percent went to the âemployees of Shagang.â That same year, the firm doubled its capacity by acquiring a German mill and reassembling it in China.

In 2006, it acquired Huaigang, a specialty steel producer whose ownership has at various times included the municipal government of Huaiâan, the provincial government of Jiangsu, and the Nanjing Iron & Steel Group, which is owned by the Jiangsu Province SASAC.10 In short, even Chinaâs largest privately owned producer is substantially state-owned, and appears to have received capital inflows from the state in the same year it doubled its capacity."

I'm sorry. I should have said Jiangsu Shangang Group was government-controlled, not government-owned. They aren't the same thing, and I should have been more precise with my terminology.

Of course, if you believe foreign economies have "decoupled" from the US, I may have waterfront property with view of that particular bridge...

Hello tduggan:
We triangulated crude oil prices in relation to refinery stock prices and for Tesoro, our calculations placed the recommended entry price to be at current levels. How are you assessing the stock?

I think it will be a step in the right direction and I think you will also see more wordpress bloggers using your Disqus as a matter of just that one addition to features.

Thanks, as I am on the edge of my seat awaiting your next release.

Keep up the progressive efforts!

It's not that it is in appropriate just sometimes there may be a bad link or really bad grammar and little things like those that I would like to cleanup on my website as the comments people post using Disqus is shown on my website.

I was able to edit comments using wordpress's commenting system. So if it is good to edit comments on wordpress system why does this upgrade to your Disqus system not allowed.

Please let me know what to do, I am considering another service or to retur to using wordpress if I am unable to edit comments. I really need this feature.

Thank You.
