Daily Stock Pick: July 14th, 2021

Stocks got a boost this morning after Fed Chairman Jerome Powell gave reassurance that the central bank would wait before it starts easing its bond purchases despite surging inflation readings.  Powell is set to speak before the House Committee on Financial Services at noon today.  Wall Street will be looking for more clues as to when to expect policy changes.

An expanding global population and rapidly moving urbanization are expected to fuel steel demand for years to come.  In fact, Zack’s Research rates the Mining – Iron space number 1 out of more than 250 industries.  

In today’s trade alert we’ll cover a top choice from this strong industry and explain the many reasons why it’s a long-term keeper.

  



 Vale (VALE), the world’s largest producer of iron ore and pellets and supplier of the steel industry, has been gaining from a rally in iron ore prices, which hit all-time highs in May with supply concerns in China fueling the rise.  China, the largest consumer of steel worldwide, is spending more on infrastructure, so the price of iron ore is expected to remain high for the foreseeable future.  

Vale doesn’t limit itself to iron though.  It produces metallurgical and thermal coal, copper, manganese ore and nickel, which is used in EV batteries.  Plus, demand for copper in China may continue to push prices higher in the near term.  They also have a logistics network that integrates mines, railroads, ports and ships which has provided an edge in the market as it lowers cost to the company.  

Analysts expect sales to surge 115% and earnings to soar 517% year-over-year in the second quarter.  Earnings are also expected to surge a whopping 372% for the full fiscal year.  

The company is well favored among the Wall Street pros., and gaining attention.  Of 21 analysts offering recommendations for VALE 17 rate the stock a Buy, 2 rate it a Hold and only 2 say to Sell VALE shares.  A median 12-month price target of $26 represents a 16% upside from its current price.
