As of Jun 10, 2026. Market Open.
He really likes commodities. There's a major commodity secular movement happening. Gold, silver, and uranium have all popped, and there's a rotation within the commodity space. All that AI stuff involves either rare earth or base metals.
This name is a base metal. Aluminum trade was soft for a while, but has picked up. These metals will be used everywhere, so he likes the demand. Yield is 1.08%.
In general, he is not a big fan of the metals industry right now. A lot of capacity has been built in the last few years and China slowing down has an impact. However, this company is in a unique position. They have gotten rid of a lot of their commodity business and have focused on specialty products. Now focused on higher margin products.
