Company was downgraded by S&P last wee

The company will continue to employ 26,000 workers in the EU but with Chinese trade barriers coming down, it's difficult to imagine anyone feeling secure in their job.
"Chinese steel shipments into the EU have doubled over the past two years while steel prices have collapsed by about 40%, according to data from International Steel Statistics Bureau," the WSJ reports.
