Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning Nucor Stock In The Last 5 Years

Steel tariffs are back with a bang, and investors are already positioning for the winners. As the U.S. slaps a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/05/45708977/trump-doubles-steel-tariffs-to-50-saying-it-will-secure-american-jobs-backs-us-steels-takeover-by-japans-nippon" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">prohibitive 50% tariff</a> on imported steel and aluminum, Cleveland-Cliffs Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLF#NYSE">CLF</a>), Nucor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NUE#NYSE">NUE</a>) and Steel Dynamics Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLD#NASDAQ">STLD</a>) are emerging as the early champions of this protectionist pivot.
According to Tracy Shuchart, senior economist at NinjaTrader, the tariff surge is a short-term policy maneuver, but it brings long-term opportunities for domestic producers. &#8220;At 50%, these tariffs are reaching what economists call prohibitive levels—they&#8217;re so high that they fundamentally distort market mechanisms rather than simply providing competitive protection,&#8221; Shuchart said in an exclusive email interview with Benzinga.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tariffs To Benefit Cleveland, Nucor, Steel Dynamics&#8217; Margins</h2>
Cleveland-Cliffs saw a 25.2% gain in early trading after the announcement, not just on sentiment but solid fundamentals. The company is heavily exposed to imports, particularly in flat-rolled products, and now has room to raise prices by $200-300 per ton while still staying competitive. 
&#8220;Cliffs can immediately implement price increases of $200–300 per ton while still remaining competitive,&#8221; Shuchart added.
Nucor, with its low-cost electric arc furnace model, is positioned to expand its already solid margins. Its scale, cost discipline, and flexible mini-mill network could boost EBITDA margins to the 18–20% range over the next 12–18 months. &#8220;With import competition effectively removed, Nucor can maintain its cost advantage while capturing significantly higher margins,&#8221; Shuchart said.
Meanwhile, Steel Dynamics, which had ventured into aluminum production, now looks prophetic. With both steel and aluminum tariffs rising, Steel Dynamics&#8217;s dual exposure could unlock a new wave of pricing power. &#8220;This diversification strategy, which seemed risky 18 months ago, now looks prescient,&#8221; said Shuchart.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Broad-Market Beneficiaries</h2>
Investors looking to ride the broader wave may also consider steel-focused ETFs like the VanEck Steel ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLX#NYSE">SLX</a>) or the SPDR S&amp;P Metals and Mining ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XME#NYSE">XME</a>), which offer diversified exposure to these names.
While these gains are real, Shuchart cautions this is not a forever story. Structural supply gaps and midterm politics could force a policy rethink by late 2025. 
But for now, domestic steel stocks stand to gain, and this trio is leading the charge.

EXCLUSIVE: Tariff Titans - Why Cleveland-Cliffs, Nucor, Steel Dynamics Could Outmuscle The Competition

After delivering its strongest monthly performance since November 2023, Wall Street entered June on a cautious note, with mounting geopolitical tensions and new trade tariffs clouding investor <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/new-etfs/25/06/45722678/magnificent-seven-closed-a-blockbuster-may-added-nearly-2-trillion-in-market-value">appetite for risk assets.</a>
President Donald Trump announced over the weekend that tariffs on steel and aluminum imports will be doubled to 50% starting June 4, reigniting trade tensions with China. Beijing responded by accusing Washington of seriously violating trade agreements and pledged to take strong measures to defend its interests.
The renewed dispute ignited a rally in precious and industrial metals. Aluminium prices climbed 2.5%, copper gained 3%, and silver soared 4.6%, marking its best daily performance since September 2024. Gold also caught a bid, rising 2.8% to $3,327 per ounce, its highest level since May 8, as investors sought safe-haven protection.
Russia's war with Ukraine escalated over the weekend, with Ukrainian drones striking airfields deep inside eastern Siberia. Moscow responded with one of its largest missile and drone barrages yet.
The geopolitical flare-up sent oil prices up 3.5% to $64 a barrel, shrugging off OPEC+'s announcement of a 411,000 barrels-per-day production hike starting in July.
Meanwhile, U.S. natural gas prices spiked 7% as traders priced in a potential increase in LNG demand from Europe.
On the macro front, the Institute for Supply Management's Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) revealed a deeper-than-expected contraction in May. Price pressures remained elevated, hovering near their highest<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/06/45724821/trumps-manufacturing-narrative-weakens-as-may-data-shows-sharper-contraction-stubborn-inflation"> levels in three years.</a>
Selling pressure resumed in the Treasury market, with the yield on the 30-year U.S. bond rising 6 basis points to 4.98%. 
The iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLT#NASDAQ">TLT</a>) dropped 1.5%, reflecting losses in long-duration bonds. At the same time, the U.S. dollar softened, with the dollar index falling to 98.7, its lowest in over a week.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) fell 1.3% to $104,000, continuing its pullback from recent highs.

These people research company financial statements, sit in conference calls and meetings, and speak with relevant insiders to determine what are known as analyst ratings for stocks. Typically, analysts will rate each stock once a quarter.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Trump's Pitch Sparks A Chart-Breaking Rally</h2>
The stock surged more than 21% after the president announced a "planned partnership" between U.S. Steel and Japan's Nippon Steel, pledging the company would stay American, headquartered in Pittsburgh, and promising 70,000 jobs and $14 billion in U.S. investment.

Technically, the breakout is hard to miss. U.S. Steel stock is trading far above its eight, 20, 50, and 200-day simple moving averages (SMAs), with the eight-day average sitting at $42.87 and the stock now at $52.01. 
The RSI (relative strength index) of 76.02 suggests the stock is overbought, while the MACD (moving average convergence/divergence indicator) reading of 0.85 points to bullish momentum. 
Traders are seeing textbook confirmation of a bullish breakout.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Analyst Skepticism Clouds Deal Optimism</h2>
But not everyone is convinced the rally is built on solid footing. JPMorgan analyst Bill Peterson maintained a "Neutral" stance, stating "questions remain" over the deal's structure and execution. 
While some media outlets have reported that Trump approved Nippon Steel's acquisition, subsequent statements from the president painted a murkier picture. He&#8217;s described the deal as an "investment" or "partial ownership" rather than a full takeover. "It will be controlled by the United States. Otherwise, I wouldn't make the deal," Trump said.
Peterson noted that the newly announced $14 billion investment figure is far above the previously suggested $2.7 billion, raising questions about how—and whether—that capital would be deployed in just over a year. Nippon Steel's Vice Chairman reiterated the company's intent for a full buyout as recently as May 20, saying there would be "no free technology" in a joint venture structure.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Steel Rivals Sink As U.S. Steel Soars</h2>
Market reaction among peers painted a telling picture: while U.S. Steel soared, rivals like Nucor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NUE#NYSE">NUE</a>), Steel Dynamics Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLD#NASDAQ">STLD</a>) and Cleveland-Cliffs Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLF#NYSE">CLF</a>) declined &#8211; suggesting the market expects a more competitive steel landscape if the deal materializes.
For now, U.S. Steel bulls are riding the momentum, but whether this Trump-fueled breakout has structural legs will depend on how the fog around the deal clears—or doesn't—in the days ahead.

US Steel Stock Smashes 20-Year Barrier On 'Trump Pump,' Yet Questions Remain

On CNBC's &#8220;Mad Money Lightning Round,&#8221; Jim Cramer said he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/25/05/45490992/vertiv-develops-power-solutions-in-sync-with-nvidias-ai-roadmap">likes Vertiv (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VRT#NYSE">VRT</a>)</a>.
As per the recent news, on Monday, Vertiv announced its strategic alignment with Nvidia Corp.‘s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) vision for AI data centers, specifically the deployment of 800 VDC power architectures. Anticipating the demands of future AI deployments, including the NVIDIA Kyber and Rubin Ultra platforms, Vertiv's comprehensive 800 VDC power portfolio is slated for release in the second half of 2026.
Cramer said no to Medical Properties Trust, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MPW#NYSE">MPW</a>), noting that there is &#8220;too much risk.&#8221;

The Mad Money host recommended owning Nucor Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NUE#NYSE">NUE</a>) for the long term.
Lending support to his choice, Nucor posted better-than-expected earnings for the first quarter on April 28. The company reported quarterly earnings of 77 cents per share, which beat the analyst consensus estimate of 64 cents per share. The company reported quarterly sales of $7.83 billion, which beat the analyst consensus estimate of $7.23 billion.

Jim Cramer Says Medical Properties Trust Has 'Too Much Risk,' Likes This Industrial Stock

India is considering imposing import duties on select U.S. products to counter Washington&#8217;s 25% tariffs on steel and aluminum imports, according to a document submitted to the World Trade Organization on Monday.
The filing stated these U.S. measures affect $7.6 billion worth of Indian exports but didn&#8217;t specify which American products might face retaliatory duties, Reuters reported.
The move follows the U.S. reimposition of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/02/43592144/us-steel-aluminum-stocks-rally-as-trump-revives-25-tariff-plan">steel and aluminum tariffs in March</a>, extending policies first implemented during President Donald Trump&#8216;s first term in 2018.
Trump&#8217;s administration has also threatened additional 26% reciprocal tariffs on Indian goods. The two nations are currently negotiating a trade deal, with India reportedly offering to reduce its tariff gap with the U.S. by two-thirds.

Shares of metals stocks are trading higher amid overall market strength after the US and China agreed to a temporary reduction in most tariffs on each other's goods. A decrease of trade tensions could reduce demand uncertainty for base metals.

'India Offers Zero-for-Zero Tariffs on Auto Parts, Steel From US'- Bloomberg

Wall Street rose modestly by midday Tuesday, as investors weighed the latest developments in trade negotiations and awaited a wave of key economic data and corporate earnings set for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45072497/us-trade-deficit-explodes-to-record-162-billion-in-march-as-import-frenzy-precedes-trumps-tariff-barrage">release later this week.</a>
President Donald Trump is <a href="https://apnews.com/article/trump-tariffs-automakers-factories-relief-25a400c98e02c01c8c54502384e267e1">expected</a> to unveil a new executive order on auto tariffs later today. Meanwhile, U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent added that the administration is pursuing bilateral trade agreements with 17 major partners, excluding China.
The S&amp;P 500 climbed 0.4%, putting it on track for a sixth consecutive gain—its longest winning streak since November 2024.
In the bond market, U.S. Treasuries extended their rally, with yields falling for a sixth straight session. The yield on the 10-year benchmark dropped to 4.17%, marking a two-week low.
Gold prices slipped 0.6% to $3,325 per ounce, while WTI crude oil futures fell 2.4% to $60 per barrel, the lowest level in two weeks. Oil prices are under pressure from escalating global trade tensions and weaker U.S. economic data, and crude is now on track for a 15% decline in April—its steepest monthly drop since 2021.
Bitcoin traded little changed, around $95,000.

Stocks Surge And Bond Yields Fall For 6th Day, Oil Prices Drop To $60: What's Driving Markets Tuesday?

In the current session, Nucor Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NUE#NYSE">NUE</a>) is trading at $114.38, after a 1.88% decrease. Over the past month, the stock decreased by 4.42%, and in the past year, by 32.19%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are more likely to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio.

<h3>Comparing Nucor P/E Against Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 47.68 in the Metals &amp; Mining industry, Nucor Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 13.78. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued.

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall.
