Alcoa Tanks 11% as Russian Restrictions Soften
The US Government today signaled it may give the world’s second largest Aluminum producer, Rusal, a break on aluminum sanctions. Alcoa has dropped almost 12% in response to the action. The problem with a fickle government without a real cohesive strategy is whippy returns. Who know what will happen next? Support for Alcoa could be at the $49 level. The stock recently peaked over $60 on the sanctions and a decent 2018 outlook. Take a look at our Alcoa post-earnings report here from last week.
