Geopolitical Tensions Drive Century Aluminum Stock Surge
Geopolitical tensions driving up Century Aluminum stock
Century Aluminum (NASDAQ: CENX) sees a 10% surge as sanctions on Russian metal supplies cause global market reverberations.
A political squeeze on Russian metals
The U.S. and U.K. impose new curbs on aluminum, nickel, and copper from Russia, limiting access to the London Metals Exchange, potentially boosting metals prices.
Century Aluminum stands to capitalize on the situation as a major U.S. producer with operations in Kentucky, South Carolina, and Iceland.
Is Century Aluminum stock a buy?
Despite the surge, investor excitement and potential new smelter projects may have already priced in a significant portion of future gains. Considering the cyclicality of the commodity market, caution is advised when evaluating investment opportunities in Century Aluminum.
