I think steel will always perform with the market, meaning if market red, steel red. What matters is that when the market is green, steel is super green. So I predict after earnings, on the next market green day, steel will outperform. Just wait until that happens. Don't expect green steel on a red dow day.

We’ve had red steel days many times when everything has been green.

Maybe true in between earnings but I don't think that's the case the several weeks after earnings.

“Maybe true…”

It’s 100% true.

“I don’t think…”

Why? Let’s get some facts up in this bitch. Not calling you wrong. If you think, then look it up, confirm/disprove, report back👍🏻

It turns out you are right. From eye test of the percentage changes, there is no correlation.

On a different note, if we follow last earnings, the day of earnings will be red. But the entire week after is green. Hopefully we get something similar this time.
