Winston Score History

The full picture

ArcelorMittal is one of the largest steel companies in the world. It makes steel products used in cars, buildings, bridges, ships, and household appliances. Its customers include automakers, construction companies, and manufacturers across dozens of industries.

The company earns money by selling steel and related products like iron ore, which it also mines. It operates in over 60 countries, with major production in Europe, the Americas, and Asia, generating roughly $60–70 billion in annual revenue. Its scale and vertical integration — owning mines as well as steel mills — give it a cost advantage over smaller rivals. However, steel is a cyclical industry, meaning profits rise and fall sharply with global economic conditions and steel prices, and ArcelorMittal faces ongoing pressure from cheaper Chinese steel exports, which remain the biggest risk to its margins and earnings.
