1)Definition:
Globalisation is a word that came about in 1980s. People believe that it’s just a phenomenon but globalisation has been happening for a millennium.

This is expected to increase further, making steel output from China among the largest in the world. The steel industry demonstrates a high degree of variability, both in terms of earnings and production. The factors attributable for driving this variability are global economic conditions with a particular sensitivity to the performance of the automotive, construction, capital goods and other industrial products
