Steel stocks rose sharply for a long time. Why? Sustainable?

The reporter of Shanghai Securities News found that the P / E ratio of A-share steel stocks is still at the bottom of history, and the phenomenon of “breaking the net” occurs frequently, accounting for the proportion of the total number of breaking the net, which is second only to banks and other sectors.
