Russel Metals (RUS-T) has garnered attention from various experts due to its strong positioning in the steel distribution market across both the U.S. and Canada. The company is perceived as somewhat insulated from steel tariffs thanks to its significant U.S. operations and recent acquisitions aimed at bolstering these capabilities. Analysts note the ongoing trends in hard asset investment and Canadian infrastructure growth as favorable for the company. Financially, Russel Metals offers a reasonable dividend yield over 4% and a solid balance sheet, although there are concerns regarding potential tariff impacts and economic sensitivity. The stock has shown a positive trajectory, with various experts suggesting strategic entry points for investment based on technical chart analysis and overall market conditions.

Nucor, NUE

WEAK BUY

Has a P/E around 10. A deep cyclical based on steel. Earnings would drop id if sgteel prices drop. Nice yield.

BUY

Excellent management. Steel prices are rising. A great long term play.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July 8/04. Up 16%.) Also pays a 5% dividend. A very well run company. When the steel cycle turns, their cash flow will actually increase. Would still buy.

HOLD

Had some good quarters which should continue. Fair market value is much higher than the current price, certainly into the mid $20's.

BUY

Believes the dividend is sustainable. One of the best managed companies in Canada. Done well given the increased commodity prices and benefited on the distribution side.

TOP PICK

Positive on the steel industry. 5% yield. A lot of cash flow. Multiple is very low.

BUY

Doing extremely well. Strong company. Very cheap stock. Use a stop/loss.

BUY

Likes steels. Demand certainly exceeds supply. Being driven by China.

TOP PICK

Likes the steel industry and feels there's one or two quarters of good earnings. 5.5% yield makes it a safe stock. Have been profitable quarter after quarter since 1997.

TOP PICK

Very shareholder friendly. Just increased their dividend by 50%. Earnings were very strong.

BUY

Metals are performing remarkably well. Profitability is very high.

TOP PICK

Pay a dividend. A lot of cash flow. Next quarter results will exceed estimates. Not his biggest upside, but a stock he doesn't worry about.

DON'T BUY

Metal distribution centers are very cyclical and, when metal prices are strong, they make a lot of money. Have high fixed costs so when demand weakens, they are not profitable at all. Easy money has been made. Trading at a pretty hefty multiple.

TOP PICK

Good dividend. Good investment at this point.

HOLD

Well-managed. Has had a good run. Would be tempted to take some money off the table as it continues to climb. Cyclical.
