For developing countries, exports are the main element of production
Export volume and pricing are primarily determined by the following:
Import dynamics in other countries: at what price and volume are neighboring countries receiving their imports (economic health and relative currencies)
“Hindering Factors” - Trade barriers, transportation costs, cultural discrepancies
Exports are ergative and not always in line with GDP cycles, as they are heavily dependent on other countries

It is likely that the U.S. is at or near its economic peak, and demand is expected to decline
The question is whether this decline will correlate with BRIC economies and/or European economies

The U.S. dollar has already decreased more than 1% in 2018, and it saw a 10% decrease in 2017
The weakening of the U.S. dollar will lead to a rise in commodity prices, having a negative impact on wire producers
As domestic rod prices go up, a margin compression for the wire producers/converters, especially the those that do not own their own rod mills
This decrease is due to several factors, including higher wages, U.S. political uncertainty and higher economic growth in in the BRIC Countries and Europe, particularly Germany and France
Estimates show that world GDP grew 3.75% in 2017
However, it is important to put this in perspective: developed economies are growing at a slower pace of 2%-2.5%

The BRIC economies experienced significant growth, fueled by the E.U.’s and the U.S.’s increased demand for BRIC’s manufactured goods
From the years 2015 to 2017, Brazil, Russia, India, and China GDP experienced a compounded average annual growth rate of 7.5%, 3.7%, 8.0%, and 3.1%, respectively
With China focusing on manufacturing (25%+ of country’s GDP) and India specializing in the service industry (61% of GDP), both countries’ middle classes are doing exceptionally well
As of 2015, 8% of India’s population is middle class, an eight fold increase from 15 years ago

Industrial Construction Revenue(Dollars in Millions)
Trade Weighted Index
The Rod & Wire industry performance is sensitive to industrial building construction in the U.S.
Revenue in the U.S. industrial building construction industry is expected to grow 4.2% to $41.2 billion at an annual compounding growth rate during the next five years. This is a substantial decrease of the five years to 2017 growth of 7.6% The Federal Reserve is expected to continue raising interest rates throughout 2018, making borrowing costs
more expensive and limiting expansion of inflation rates. These forecasts never include a recession

The Rod & Wire industry performance is also impacted by the number of new vehicles produced and demand for automobile parts.
Global demand from the Car and Automobile Manufacturing industry is expected to increase at an annual compounding growth rate of 1.5% during the next five years to 2022; this is a $2.5 trillion industry
U.S. demand from the Car and Automobile Manufacturing industry is expected to decline at an annual compounding growth rate of -0.3% during the next five years to 2022 However, total U.S. transportation construction and related market activity, which includes investment in
highways, bridges, public transit, rail, ports, waterways, airports, roads, and parking was expected to see 1.3% growth in 2017

______________________________________________________________________Source: New York Time
Implemented between 1994 and 2008, NAFTA eliminated tariffs on products traded in between Canada, Mexico, and the United States
Although there are many benefits to the agreement, the deal has become a point of discussion for many political candidates, including President Trump
President Trump has also threatened to completely withdraw from NAFTA, leading to serious consequences for the U.S., these include
3.5% tariffs per WTO rules, a portion of which consumers will pay for
Disruption of current North American supply chains that take advantage of differing costs and resources
In May 2017, NAFTA renegotiations started between the three countries
Although specific details have yet to be released, it has been said that the U.S. will focus on reducing the U.S. trade deficit, tightening rules-of-origin requirements, reforming the investor-state dispute resolution mechanism, and updating the pact for digital services and intellectual property

Macroeconomic FilterSection 232
______________________________________________________________________Source: New York Time
22
President Trump is possibly moving with his pledge to protect domestic steelmakers against unfairly priced steel imports with Section 232
Anti-China sentiment, which is currently the U.S.’s 11th
largest source of steel imports, is thought to be a primary reason for the campaign pledge
Because many countries could be affected by the blanket Section 232 ruling, European countries, particularly the U.K., worry supplies from their region will have to deal with duties that could hit their steelmakers disproportionately hard
Canada and Mexico are both in the top five steel exporters to the U.S., along with Brazil, South Korea, and Turkey

Growth Strategies Drivers - CurrenciesCompetitive Outlook
Source: XE Corporation, U.S. Census Bureau
• A weak dollar means U.S. currency purchases less of another country’s products or services• This leads to an increase in import pricing• A weak dollar could lead to more competitive export pricing for the U.S., which can create
U.S. jobs, if capacity existed• China, like many other government controlled economies, manages its currency, making its
export products more attractive• Currency conflicts can lead to trade wars and import tariffs, which are often
counterproductive

Capital Markets V
The financial system facilitates economic growth by providing four basic services:
Facilitating trade;
Facilitating risk management for various individuals and businesses;
Mobilizing resources; and
Obtaining information, evaluating businesses and individuals based on this information, and allocating capital
As businesses grow they can access both debt and equity financing, and the mix of these two, called the “capital structure” decision, is an important choice every business makes
A rich diversity of financing sources is provided by the U.S. financial system.
This diversity helps U.S. consumers and businesses to better manage their risks and lowers their cost of capital, but is cyclical
The ability of businesses to access debt and equity financing is tied strongly to the economy
During periods of economic growth, access to capital is readily available
On the contrary, during recessions, finding capital investments is much more restricted

Mergers and acquisitions volume is driven by companies’ desire for continued growth (“Inorganic growth”)
Also, often large, well-established companies, as well as smaller companies, turn to M&A in need of long-term growth
M&A is often undertaken with the intention to expand customer base, geographic, scale/expansion, and vertical or horizontal integration (“investment themes”)
Companies must simultaneously exploit existing profitable business models to run their core business and also explore new products, markets, and models to drive growth
The intention, quite reasonably, is that the resulting combination of products, people and pipelines will grow ROIC/ROE
Revenue synergies also alter the competitive balance of power and create opportunities to change market dynamics, sell more products, or raise prices

Lower interest rates encourage investment spending, boosting the economy in times of slow growth
The Federal Reserve Board sets the interest rates to increase and decrease demand for services
Recently the U.S. has been periodically increasing the interest rate, and that trend is expected to continue
During the 2008, the Fed lowered rates to 0.25% and it remained there until the end of 2015, when it was raised to 0.5%
The Federal Reserve is expected to increase the rate to 2% in 2018, 2.5% in 2019, and 3% in 2020

Focused Approach
Broad Capabilities
Rod and wire investing themes are cyclical, as the industry is heavily influenced by commodity prices, the health ofthe U.S. and global economy, government policy, and foreign exchange rates
Moving forward, product price improvements will help increase capital flows, as will the shift of demographics in ageas well as movement to the Sun Belt
The wire market should experience increased consolidation, particularly in the U.S., in order to improve margins,reduce excess capacity and diversify product mix, but only after baby-boomer ownership looks to retire and seekliquidity
Organic growth in upstream/intermediate is very difficult as the market is over capacitated with swing imports(limited Greenfields)
The current trade environment and weakening U.S. Dollar will lead to consolidation
Energy, wage and regulatory costs make it harder for domestic wire manufacturers to remain profitable
Companies will need to scale to effectively leverage the rod market at various price points
