Cliffs Natural Resources Inc (CLF), United States Steel Corporation (X): Is Short Interest Warranted? (Insider Monkey)
August was the first time that the broad-based S&P 500 (INDEXSP:.INX) has looked vulnerable in more than a year. Yet, even with a 3%-plus drop for the month, the S&P 500 (INDEXSP:.INX) is up 14.5% year to date — a figure that would trounce the annual average return for stocks. The reason for the rally since the recession is both tangible and apparent. The financial sector has rebounded in a big way thanks to banks’ improved capital position and historically low lending rates, which have allowed businesses to expand and consumers to refinance at favorable rates. With the foundation under the housing sector strengthening and unemployment levels dropping, there are numerous reasons to assume that the rally will continue.
