CLF: Bull or Bear?

(closed on 12/02/08)
CLF and ANR should merge in the near future.  Problems will arise internally!!! That understood the price of iron ore and coal will increase (not as high as projected this year) and demand will rise.  Good company to cover a strike above price.  Target is estimate EPS w/ 10 PE for 2009.

I am purposely using the same headline time after time this week - "(insert iron, coal or fertilizer name here) with Blow Out Earnings". It's been a heck of a performance for these names... Cleveland Cliffs (CLF) simply continues the train. I know, I know - I should be getting some restaurants because as gas drops to $3.25 they will roar back, and I'm looking backwards instead of forwards. Sorry, I just can't tear myself away from 100%+ growth, and punishing analysts estimates. Full report here.

See my analysis on the ANR deal and why CLF is in such a good position in todays market.  but as a merger investor, why am i now adding CLF if they arent being taken over?
Because there is a new development in the deal.  it looks like the largest shareholder of CLF is now going to try and fetch a nice price for CLF and might shop around for offers of over 130 dollars per share.  see this article for more info.

    I actually expect dividend payment to become part of the rule for other commodity makers, especially the fertilizers as they turn into cash flow machines. Cleveland Cliffs (CLF) trading up 15% this AM on this line item along with raised 2008 guidance and preliminary 2009. Boo and Yah. Unfortunately some sucker sold a partial position at $99, citing market conditions earlier this week. (hand in the air) None of the 2008 guidance is "news" to blog readers but I guess it was "news" to the market. If only the market could stay upright for more than 3 hours at a time. Blah.

    Let me be the first to say I lightened up on this stock far too early - and we never had enough exposure (at most 1.5% of the fund). We have nearly a double in this position since adding it in the hectic March sell off. What a performance; and a little known fact is they have serious metallurgical coal exposure on TOP of their iron ore exposure [Chinese Warned of Record Rise in Ore Price - 85-95%!] [Apr 7: Posco Agrees to 200% Coal Price Increase]

    I took a small 75 share position in CLF today at $102.01. This one's an early breakout pullback. The stock could pullback to the breakout point at $97 and still look good. My stop is around $95 with an undefined upside target in new high territory.

    demand for steel, resulting in higher demand for iron ore. Graphic_rating_buy CLF

    		 -57.17%
    in 565 days
    Cleveland Cliffs has solid fundamentals, rising prices
    and increasing demand of its products. Strong
    industrial growth in China triggered demand for steel,
    resulting in higher demand for iron ore. The
    company s portfolio of both established and recent
    iron ore and metallurgical coal assets positions it to
    capitalize on global industry dynamics in 2008 and
    beyond. We believe stronger commodity prices
    should significantly boost revenues for CLF. As a
    result, we rate the shares a Buy with a target of
    $120.00.
