When the dollar weakens, the same amount of any commodity costs more in terms of dollars. Therefore, prices increase. And, the stocks of metal companies are mirroring that optimism. Nifty Metal is the top gainer among sectoral index with 2.6% gains. Metal prices are said to be rising because of high crude oil prices and lower production with companies, which is boosting the prices upwards. <table style="border-width: initial; border-style: none;

One is that metals stocks are always linked to crude oil prices and, right now, they have jumped $84 per barrel, which is probably at a recent high. Usually when crude prices go up, base commodity prices also go up, which is a good thing for metal companies,” said Deven R Choksey, managing director at KR Choksey Investment Managers told Business Insider. Currently, the crude oil prices are at $85 per barrel, trading at a 2-month high after the US oil inventory fell for the seventh straight week to levels last seen in 2018. Note that crude oil is a basic input in the production process and is used to fuel cars and planes for transportation and generate electricity for use in production of goods and services. So any change in the price of oil will impact the costs for the company and hence increase the product price. Another reason for the rise in metal prices is that companies had cut down production in recent weeks because they thought the demand wasn’t strong enough. “Anywhere across the globe particularly Europe production capacities at being pared, they (companies) are not increasing the production be it because of environment issues or covid related restrictions. Many companies have been keeping their production capacity at a lower level, which is resulting in higher prices of the product due to shortage of supply,” added Choksey.

New Delhi, Apr 14 () The domestic steel players have started re-working their business plans for the next phase of the lockdown, which was announced earlier in the day by the prime minister, industry sources said .Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced that the current lockdown will be extended till May 3, saying it is necessary to contain the spread of the novel coronavirus in the country.He said detailed guidelines on implementation of the new lockdown will be announced on Wednesday, and some relaxations may be allowed after April 20 in places where there are no hotspots.The industry players who were planning to scale up production have now started to re-work their strategy in the wake of the extended lockdown period, sources said.Any decision regarding scaling up the output levels will be now taken after April 20, they said.The demand for steel fell due to the outbreak of COVID-19 followed by the lockdown period, which ultimately led to reduction in production level.Some of the major steel producers like Steel Authority of India Ltd (SAIL) and Tata Steel Ltd (TSL) which together contribute about 20 per cent to India's total steel production had slashed production by almost 50 per cent.At the Rashtriya Ispat Nigam Ltd (RINL), daily production level of hot metal came down to 12,000 tonne from 18,000 tonne.Last week, Sajjan Jindal-led JSW Steel had even announced that it has started preparations to scale up its production levels.The domestic players are also concerned about the inventory levels which has built up during the lockdown, sources said adding there is no issue in movement of raw materials."After the government's intervention, supply of raw material remains unaffected but due to lack of demand inventories have built up. If things continue, storage will be another issue," one of the source said. ABI RUJ

Lockdown: Steel players start re-working on business plans

New Delhi, May 12 () The domestic steel sector will take a longer time to recover from COVID-19 disruptions and will need government's handholding to emerge from this crisis situation, a top industry executive said. The COVID-19 outbreak in India followed by the lockdown has impacted the steel industry severely. It has created demand destruction, affected the output of steel players as well as the supply chain, Seshagiri Rao, Joint Managing Director and Group CFO of JSW Steel said. "Government handholding is required either by monetary measures or fiscal measures to support it (steel sector)... as the recovery will take take a much longer time in India," he said. The nationwide lockdown since March 25 to contain the spread of coronavirus is scheduled to end on May 17. Speaking on the challenges of Micro, Small &amp; Medium Enterprises in the sector, Rao said they are not able to get working capital and are facing issues with availability of workforce and logistics movement. Following the coronavirus-induced lockdown, the total production of crude steel in April this year came down by nearly 65 per cent. It was produced by only six large players of the sector including JSW Steel. The six big companies could operate on an average of 51 per cent capacity utilization, balance companies' capacity utilization fell by 94.5 per cent. The top six steel making companies in India are Tata Steel Ltd, JSW Steel, Jindal Steel and Power Ltd, ArcelorMittal Nippon Steel India, Steel Authority of India Ltd and Rashtriya Ispat Nigam Ltd. During April 2020, demand fell by 91 per cent to just 7 lakh tonne compared to about 7.5 MT of steel in April 2019, Rao said adding that bank lending to the sector also witnessed a significant decline. Rao said the industry needs to relook at at its entire financial and risk management models, do rationalisation of manpower and undertake other measures to become cost effective. He further said large steel companies are looking for opportunities available globally. Steel exporting countries like Russia, Japan are badly affected. China has also been affected. "We need to look at steel importing countries until India recovers," he said. ABI DRRDRR
