My Thoughts 💭 My Thoughts 💭 

I had NUE on my Robinhood watchlist for a few years now. Back when i wanted to invest in the real economy I wanted to invest in steel production and landed on NUE. I never did buy any shares but I did track the 50 day moving average to see where I could potentially start my position.

As Ansel added this company to his re-industrialization portfolio let’s review the fundamentals. Is it worth spending sats on?

At 241.6k sats per share ($68,595), and a 3.2k sat per share yearly dividend. It would take 75 years to break even. 

The company trades at a PE 21 which means investors are paying $21 access $1 of earnings.  The stock is trading at an elevated price but far from being expensive by historical standards.

Let’s review some key fundamentals to determine if this stock is worth spending sats on.

The fundamentals of this company are good.  The balance sheet is decent, the growth prospects are okay (projected  grow slower than bitcoin), trading at a reasonable valuation, pays a dividend, and in a sector that is important to construction.

The only negative is the negative free cash flow and the inconsistent revenues the last few years.

From a Bitcoiner perspective. Paying 241k sats for one share is expensive in Sat terms. But the company has good fundamentals it had the potential to have nice returns as America brings manufacturing home.

Here is the performance according to Simply Wall Street

Ansel selected a good operating business with this company.

If I had sats to spare I would start a position in this company. I like what they do and they have a good leadership steering the company in the correct direction.

Solid pick Ansel
