SDI still bullish on Sinton and a steel-short Mexico

Steel Dynamics Inc. executives provided further insight into operations at the company’s Sinton, Texas, flat-rolled steel mill on a second-quarter earnings conference call on Thursday morning.

Despite a series of start-up woes, the company recently commissioned two new coating lines there, and the mill continues to ramp up production. The execs were also bullish on the underlying fundamentals of one of the mill’s key target markets: Mexico.
