Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (CLF-N)

He bought more. Has great faith in management who will turn things around, though it will take time. Steel prices have risen, but CLF has to wait for their existing contracts to end before they can raise their prices. Also, given tariffs, demand from the car industry here should increase with higher volumes.

If you're in a trade war and the world is slowing, commodity stocks (precious metals, steel-oriented) probably get weaker. That's the period we're in now. Probably a buy sometime soon, when we start thinking about recovery on the other end of this. Too early right now to dip a toe.

Pretty good company, one to play at some point.

Their balance sheet isn't too good, and if the car companies are cutting back their demand (caused by tariffs), then demand for steel will decline. This will fall to $6.5

At a 52-week low today, but he hasn't and won't sell any shares. It looks like steel prices have bottomed--and shouldn't have fallen this far. Their M&A activity is also pressuring shares. Also, the Nippon Steel deal will be blocked; the US Steel deal was botched from the start. Hang onto it--it's below book value. Their M&A will add value. It isn't just a cyclical play.

It hit a 52-week low today, but people will be kicking themselves for not owning this, because this will rally when interest rates decline.

Steel stocks are falling with the price of steel. Of this sector, CLF is the most likely to bounce back, though.

It reports Monday. Has been strong despite the Fed's rate hikes.

Just upgraded on Wall Street. Estimated $1.2 billion free cash flow this year. Debt-to-EBITDA is just below 1, so they have little debt to buy. Input costs have decreased while car production rises (good for CLF). Expects them to buy back a ton of shares.

With so few steel companies, Nucor and Cleveland Cliffs enjoy scarcity value with enough business to keep pricing up, though Nucor has a much better balance sheet. It reports Monday.

They announced share buybacks a while ago, but the money still isn't flowing here.
