Just last week , one of those bulls, cajun1958, tapped Mesabi as a solid bargain opportunity:
It appears that the slowing down of demand in China has already been factored into the stock [price]. I have a soft spot for [Mesabi] since I bought it under $10 when the US steel industry was declared [dead on arrival]. However, increased domestic industrial demand from [AK Steel], auto makers, appliance makers etc. make this cheap stock a buy and a great income pick.
