Millett sees tariffs, CORE case benefiting SDI

Steel Dynamics Inc.’s (SDI’s) top executive thinks Trump’s tariff policies, as well as the results from the recent CORE case, will prove advantageous to the Fort Wayne, Ind.-based steel and aluminum company.

“I think the January tariff and trade actions today, specific to steel and aluminum are extremely beneficial for us,” Mark Millett, SDI chairman and CEO, said in an earnings call on Wednesday.
