Good find. The case for Latam is steel is particularly stronger now considering the new tariffs in North America this week, brilliant timing.

* Key tariff rate of steel and aluminium products increase from 7.5 to 25%

Don't you think, that VALE S.A. would be a better option?

Gerdau has huge exposure to the U.S., which is a great market for steel. Vale produces Iron Ore, Gerdau produces steel from Iron Ore. Currently, Gerdau trades at 4.8x 2025E earnings and has a very strong balance sheet. This selloff is silly

Thaks! Obviously the stock has run up a lot, but Im still a believer in the managment team and think that oil moves higher.
