Nucor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NUE#NYSE">NUE</a>) posted better-than-expected fourth-quarter financial results, after the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43253829/nucor-q4-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-steel-shipments-down-2-market-conditions-starting-to-improve">closing bell on Monday</a>.
Nucor reported fourth-quarter revenue of $7.08 billion, beating analyst estimates of $6.76 billion, according to Benzinga Pro. The steelmaker reported fourth-quarter earnings of $1.22 per share, beating analyst estimates of 65 cents per share.
"While steel demand softened throughout 2024, market conditions are starting to improve and should gain momentum as we work our way into 2025. The U.S. economy is still on the front end of several steel-intensive megatrends and as America's largest and most diversified steel producer, Nucor is well positioned to supply those needs," said Leon Topalian, chair, president and CEO of Nucor.
Nucor expects first-quarter earnings in the steel mills and steel products segments "to be similar" to the first quarter of 2024, while earnings in the raw materials segment are expected to decrease.
Nucor shares gained 3.8% to close at $126.55 on Tuesday.

Insights From Analysts
Talking about DeepSeek's impact on markets Jeremy Siegel, senior economist at WisdomTree and former Professor at the University of Pennsylvania said that such events could derail the ‘Magnificent 7' and the tech narrative.
"This could finally signal the shift from growth to value stocks," he added.
On the upcoming FOMC decision on interest rates, he added, "The Fed's cautious stance reinforces stability, while Trump's policies, though unconventional, appear growth-focused in key areas like AI and investment into the U.S."
However, Trump's cryptocurrency policy remains ambiguous, particularly regarding a potential Bitcoin strategic reserve, he said. "Markets are awaiting clarity as this will have significant implications for the crypto space."
Carson Research's Ryan Detrick pointed out in an X post that over the last two weeks, an average of 334.6 stocks a day have advanced. When such average returns were observed during March 2023, the index gained 27% over the next 12 months.

Boeing, General Motors And 3 Stocks To Watch Heading Into Tuesday

Nucor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NUE#NYSE">NUE</a>) reported fourth-quarter financial results after the market close on Monday. Here&#8217;s a look at the key metrics <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/n43252298/nucor-reports-results-for-the-fourth-quarter-and-full-year-2024">from the quarter</a>.
Q4 Earnings: Nucor reported fourth-quarter revenue of $7.08 billion, beating analyst estimates of $6.76 billion, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>. The steelmaker reported fourth-quarter earnings of $1.22 per share, beating analyst estimates of 65 cents per share.
Total revenue was down 8% on a year-over-year basis. Nucor said it shipped approximately 6.06 million tons to outside customers during the quarter. Average sales price per ton decreased&nbsp;10%&nbsp;year-over-year. Total steel mill shipments fell 2% year-over-year. 
Nucor ended the quarter with $4.14 billion in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments on hand. The company noted that its $1.75 billion revolving credit facility remains undrawn and does not expire until&nbsp;November 2026.
&#8220;While steel demand softened throughout 2024, market conditions are starting to improve and should gain momentum as we work our way into 2025. The U.S. economy is still on the front end of several steel-intensive megatrends and as America&#8217;s largest and most diversified steel producer, Nucor is well positioned to supply those needs,&#8221; said&nbsp;Leon Topalian, chair, president and CEO of Nucor.

Nucor said it repurchased approximately 2.1 million shares of its common stock&nbsp;during the quarter. The company&#8217;s board also declared a cash dividend of 55 cents per share payable on Feb. 11 to shareholders of record as of Dec. 31.
Outlook: Nucor expects first-quarter earnings in the steel mills and steel products segments &#8220;to be similar&#8221; to the first quarter of 2024, while earnings in the raw materials segment are expected to decrease. 
&#8220;We expect higher corporate, administrative and tax impacts in the&nbsp;first quarter&nbsp;of 2025 than realized in the&nbsp;fourth quarter&nbsp;of 2024 which may result in lower net earnings overall,&#8221; the company said.
Management will further discuss the quarter on a call with analysts and investors at 10 a.m. ET Tuesday morning.
NUE Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/nue">Nucor shares</a> were up 0.97% in after hours, trading at $123.15 at the time of publication Monday, per <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Insights into Nucor Q4 Earnings

Nucor Expects Q1 2025 Steel Mills And Steel Products Segments Similar To Q4 2024; Raw Materials Earnings Expected To Decrease In Q1 2025 Relative To Q4 2024

Nucor (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NUE#NYSE">NUE</a>) reported quarterly earnings of $1.22 per share which beat the analyst consensus estimate of $0.65 by 87.69 percent. This is a 61.39 percent decrease over earnings of $3.16 per share from the same period last year. The company reported quarterly sales of $7.076 billion which beat the analyst consensus estimate of $6.763 billion by 4.63 percent. This is a 8.16 percent decrease over sales of $7.705 billion the same period last year.

Earnings Beats

Nucor Q4 2024 GAAP EPS $1.22 Beats $0.65 Estimate, Sales $7.076B Beat $6.763B Estimate

Nucor Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NUE#NYSE">NUE</a>) will release its fourth-quarter financial results, after the closing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NUE/earnings">bell, on Monday, Jan. 27, 2025.</a>
Analysts expect the Charlotte, North Carolina-based company to report quarterly earnings at 63 cents per share, down from $3.16 per share in the year-ago period. Nucor projects quarterly revenue of $6.73 billion, compared to $7.7 billion a year earlier, according to data from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
With the recent buzz around Nucor, some investors may be eyeing potential gains from the company's dividends too. Currently, Nucor offers an annual dividend yield of 1.80%, which is a quarterly dividend amount of 55 cents per share ($2.20 a year).  
So, how can investors exploit its dividend yield to pocket a regular $500 monthly?
To earn $500 per month or $6,000 annually from dividends alone, you would need an investment of approximately $333,158 or around 2,727 shares. For a more modest $100 per month or $1,200 per year, you would need $66,583 or around 545 shares.
To calculate: Divide the desired annual income ($6,000 or $1,200) by the dividend ($2.20 in this case). So, $6,000 / $2.20 = 2,727 ($500 per month), and $1,200 / $2.20 = 545 shares ($100 per month).
Note that dividend yield can change on a rolling basis, as the dividend payment and the stock price both fluctuate over time.
How that works: The dividend yield is computed by dividing the annual dividend payment by the stock&#8217;s current price.
For example, if a stock pays an annual dividend of $2 and is currently priced at $50, the dividend yield would be 4% ($2/$50). However, if the stock price increases to $60, the dividend yield drops to 3.33% ($2/$60). Conversely, if the stock price falls to $40, the dividend yield rises to 5% ($2/$40).
Similarly, changes in the dividend payment can impact the yield. If a company increases its dividend, the yield will also increase, provided the stock price stays the same. Conversely, if the dividend payment decreases, so will the yield.
Price Action: Shares of Nucor gained 0.1% to close at $122.17 on Friday.
On Jan. 17, JPMorgan analyst Bill Peterson maintained Nucor with an Overweight and lowered the price target from $168 to $152.

Apart from this, five of the total ‘Magnificent Seven' will report their earnings this week.
The 10-year Treasury yield stood at 4.50%, while the two-year yield was at 4.17%. According to the CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>, there is a 99.5% chance that the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates unchanged later this week.

Insights From Analysts
Assessing the DeepSeek impact, the global macroeconomic expert and market strategist, Anish Nanda said that the speed, cost, and focus of China's progress on chips is causing a rotation out of growth into value stocks.
However, he added that it remains to be seen if DeepSeek will prove to be a viable, cheaper alternative in the long term and if they can consistently innovate and take a leadership position in the sector that can be sustained. "Also little is known about the lab and its founder, Liang WenFeng," he told <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga</a>.
"Nevertheless, it still poses a risk if U.S. tech giants' pricing power is finally being threatened and if their massive AI spending needs a rethink. Only time will tell who will emerge the winner in the long run. A tough battle seems to be on the cards.&#8221;
Ed Yardeni and Eric Wallerstein of Yardeni Research pointed out that this week will see a slew of big tech companies report their earnings.
"The next round of fun begins this week and next week when the Magnificent-7 report Q4 results," the note said.
Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), and Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) will report earnings on Wednesday, Jan. 29. Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) will report on Thursday, Jan. 30.
Whereas Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) will report on Tuesday, Feb. 4, Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), on the other hand, won&#8217;t report until Feb. 26.
"The question is whether they will disappoint because their capital spending on AI is soaring faster than their revenues. That could squeeze their collective profit margin. The forward profit margin of the Mag-7 has soared from 18.0% at the start of 2023 to 25.5% during the Jan. 25 week," the note added.
As per the CME's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>, the probability of having no change in the rates was at 65.6% for March and 44.4% for May.
Talking about this and Bank of Japan's hike last week, the CEO of Mind Money Julia Khandoshko said, "In the current environment of global monetary uncertainty, with no clear timeline for when the Federal Reserve might further continue its easing rates, the BoJ's decision looks like a calculated response to economic challenges."

US Stock Futures Tumble As DeepSeek Buzz Jolts Big Tech: Expert Says The Chinese AI Model Is Yet To Prove Its Viability At Lower Cost In Long Term

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed further improvement in overall market sentiment, while the index remained in the &#8220;Neutral&#8221; zone on Friday.
U.S. stocks settled lower, as the S&amp;P 500 recorded losses after hitting fresh records on Friday. Some mega-cap tech stocks closed lower, with shares of Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) falling more than 3%, while Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) lost over 1% during the session.
All three major indices recorded their second consecutive positive week, with the S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq each gaining around 1.7% last week, while the Dow gained 2.2%.
US President Donald Trump refrained from imposing new tariffs during his first week and escalated pressure on the Federal Reserve, urging the central bank to lower interest rates.
Twilio Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TWLO#NYSE">TWLO</a>) shares jumped more than 20% on Friday after the company issued fourth-quarter earnings guidance above estimates and a year-over-year revenue increase.

What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?

The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.

JP Morgan Maintains Overweight on Nucor, Lowers Price Target to $152

United States Steel Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/X#NYSE">X</a>) stock is trading higher Monday following a report that Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLF#NYSE">CLF</a>) will partner with Nucor Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NUE#NYSE">NUE</a>) to make a potential bid to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/25/01/42947291/the-offer-would-be-in-the-high-30sshare-cleveland-cliffs-would-purchase-all-of-u-s-steel-for-all-cas">acquire the company</a>.
The Details: According to <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/01/13/cleveland-cliffs-partnering-with-nucor-on-potential-bid-for-us-steel-sources-say.html">CNBC</a>, Cleveland-Cliffs plans to make a bid to acquire U.S. Steel in an all-cash deal, valuing the company at over $30 per share. As part of the planned deal, U.S. Steel&#8217;s headquarters would remain in Pittsburgh and Cleveland-Cliffs would subsequently sell the Big River Steel subsidiary to Nucor.
Japanese-owned Nippon proposed a $14.9-billion takeover deal at the end of 2023, under which the company would purchase U.S. Steel for $55 per share. The deal was blocked by the Biden administration following a review by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS).
President Joe Biden has made it clear that he believes U.S. Steel should remain American-owned. He has also cited national security concerns and emphasized the importance of a strong domestic steel industry.
Nippon is now suing the Biden administration over the decision to block the acquisition. Additionally, Nippon and U.S. Steel have filed lawsuits against Cleveland-Cliffs, its CEO Lourenco Goncalves and United Steelworkers President David McCall, accusing them of conspiring to prevent the deal.
Cleveland-Cliffs is reportedly considering making an offer in the high $30s per share. U.S. Steel shares jumped more than 8% on the news before pulling back slightly.
