The World Market for Unworked Precious and Semiprecious Stones Excluding Diamonds

This report was created for strategic planners, international executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for irregular coils of hot-rolled iron and non-alloy steel bars and rods consisting of less than .6% carbon by weight. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics that appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for irregular coils of hot-rolled iron and non-alloy steel bars and rods consisting of less than .6% carbon by weight for those countries serving the world market via exports or supplying from various countries via imports. I do so for the current year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models.
