You should also pay careful attention to the company’s guidance. Not only will this affect the stock, but it could also have an impact on the market as a whole. When Nucor Corporation (NYSE:NUE) and U.S. Steel Canada Inc. report later in April, each is likely to be affected by the tone set on Monday. While Nucor has been somewhat resilient — probably driven in part by its 3.2% dividend yield — the tone will certainly be critical for U.S. Steel, which, like Alcoa, is trading near its 52-week low.

Overall, as is typically the case, Alcoa Inc (NYSE:AA)’s earnings may well prove to have effects beyond the company itself.
