Cleveland-Cliffs Stock Rises Almost 20% In Ten Days – Here’s Why
Cleveland-Cliffs stock (NYSE: CLF) has jumped 8% in just the last one week and 18% in the last ten days. In comparison, the market has been flat in the last one week and up 4% in the last ten days. This reflects that CLF stock completely outperformed the broader market (S&P 500) on both the occasions. The recent rally has been driven by expectations of strong Q4 2021 results, which will be out on 11th Feb 2022. The results are likely to reflect the benefits of y-o-y higher steel prices and contribution of ArcelorMittal USA and AK Steel acquisitions. Steel prices witnessed a significant rally in 2021. Though prices came under pressure in Q4 2021, they still remained above the year-ago period, which is likely to benefit and reflect in the 2021 results.
