Thinkstock

24/7 Wall St. has put together a preview of major metal companies reporting their earnings this week. Considering the new Trump administration has been positive for industrials, we could expect to see some upside in this industry.

Credit Suisse recently issued a report on the metal and mining industries taking a relatively positive stance on where they stand to go from here.

We have included the consensus estimates from Thomson Reuters, as well as a recent trading history and consensus analyst price target.

There are also other previews looking at the Dow stocks reporting this week and the top earnings reports coming out.

AK Steel Holding Corp. (NYSE: AKS) reports its fourth-quarter earnings on Tuesday. The consensus estimates call for $0.08 in earnings per share (EPS) and $1.41 billion in revenue. In the same period of last year, the company posted EPS of $0.30 and $1.54 billion in revenue. Shares of AK Steel were trading at $9.53 on Monday, with a consensus analyst price target of $10.32 and a 52-week trading range of $1.81 to $11.39.

Also on Tuesday, Alcoa Corp. (NYSE: AA) is scheduled to release its fourth-quarter financial results. Analysts are forecasting $0.19 in EPS and $2.46 billion in revenue. Comparable numbers from last year aren’t yet available because Alcoa and Arconic Inc. (NYSE: ARNC) split just last November. Shares of Alcoa were trading at $35.84, with a 52-week range of $20.00 to $35.93 and a consensus price target of $33.13.

And Steel Dynamics Inc. (NASDAQ: STLD) is set to report its most recent quarterly results on Tuesday as well. The consensus estimates are $0.43 in EPS and revenue of $1.88 billion. The same period of last year reportedly had $0.09 in EPS and $1.59 billion in revenue. Shares were last seen at $35.80. The consensus price target is $40.27, and the 52-week range is $15.90 to $40.17.

The Average American Is Losing Their Savings Every Day (Sponsor)

If you’re like many Americans and keep your money ‘safe’ in a checking or savings account, think again. The average yield on a savings account is a paltry .4% today, and inflation is much higher. Checking accounts are even worse.

Every day you don’t move to a high-yield savings account that beats inflation, you lose more and more value.

But there is good news. To win qualified customers, some accounts are paying 9-10x this national average. That’s an incredible way to keep your money safe, and get paid at the same time. Our top pick for high yield savings accounts includes other one time cash bonuses, and is FDIC insured.
