Those estimates below point to good business in the US in the next years.

Good Times May Be Ahead For U.S. Steelmakers
forbes.com

Gerday is acquiring steel makers like crazy.
In July, Gerdau acquired the steelmaker Chaparral for $4.2 billion. Three months later, Gerdau acquired, through its U.S. subsidiary Gerdau Ameristeel Corp. (GNA), construction-products maker Enco Materials Inc. for an undisclosed amount.

Now it is acquring "Quanex, through its steel arm MacSteel, is the second largest producer in the U.S. of special bar quality steels, operating at three mini mills."


So it can be that there are people already positioning themselves for future infrastructure business.

•Estimates suggest US needs $1.6 trn over five years

•California alone needs $500 bn investment in 20 years

•Chicago Skyways and Indiana toll road privatised; airports, rail next.
