Excellent news! Made in the USA, baby!

2. Nucor's culture is that they never lay off an employee.

They believe that the loyalty of their workers is worth the price of riding out a downturn in the economy.

3. I read yesterday the average earnings at Nucor is $96000 a year. They are non-union

but apparently they are a good employer. They may also build a trans-loading facility in Weirton WV.

4. There's A Nucor Site Near Us

It's about 18 miles south. They do a lot of recycling there. I see train cars full of scrap on the siding all the time.
I played golf with a couple young guys.
What you say about them is consistent with what they said.
One guy was an accountant, and he said getting ahead is a little harder because nobody ever leaves.

5. Have always had a great reputation for steel products.

Their chemistries/alloys and processing have always been of highest quality. A good sign, I think. It's not cheap to ship raw steel from 1/2 way around the globe.
