    3 Infrastructure Stocks to Ground Your Trading

    Do headlines of a slowing global economy or raised trade war threats have your attention? It may be time to look at the price charts of infrastructure stocks U.S. Steel (NYSE:X), Alcoa (NYSE:AA) and Cemex (NYSE:CX) to build long-term profits shorting and buying X stock, AA and shares of CX in your portfolio. Let me explain.Are you mulling why the Federal Reserve cut rates for the first time in over a decade? Or does the latest news of an additional 10% tariff on $300 billion in Chinese goods by the U.S. government have you worried? Well, you're not alone.These macroeconomic and geopolitical environment have Wall Street's undivided attention, while earnings season has quickly been shown the exit. But in order to profit from today's headlines, you have to look at the big picture. And that's where X stock, AA and CX come in.InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading Tips * 8 of the Most Shorted Stocks in the Markets Right Now Along with large-cap tech stocks such as Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) or an industrial play like Caterpillar (NYSE:CAT), infrastructure stocks are obviously a group worth watching. And within this market area X, AA stock and shares of CX are companies to put on the radar for selling and buying based on what their price charts and not today's headlines are telling us. Infrastructure Stocks: U.S. Steel (X)U.S. Steel is the first of our three infrastructure stocks. The provided weekly chart shows X stock has formed a bearish flag beneath lateral resistance dating back to the financial crisis. Even U.S. Steel's better-than-expected earnings report hasn't been able to put a bid in this one!That's not the only bearish evidence in X stock either. Today's pattern is the second time where shares have fallen below support. Coupled with a failed uptrend attempt in 2018, this second attempt at breaking through this critical area looks all the more ominous. The X Stock Trade Short this infrastructure stock now and look for an eventual move towards the 2016 low. To keep losses contained and prevent fighting a bearish trend, I'd recommend a stop-loss slightly above the pattern high. Alcoa (AA)Alcoa is the next of our infrastructure stocks to put on your radar. However, I'm watching AA stock for a purchase. The monthly chart in AA stock does a good job of displaying a large broadening pattern that has developed over the past decade. Shares of Alcoa are near support and that's bullish.The formation isn't perfect, but life rarely is either. More importantly, I see the spirit of this corrective base as being intact. And with a bullishly diverging stochastics setup, a bottom should be closer, rather than farther away. The AA Stock TradeShould a confirmed candlestick low in this infrastructure stock form in the coming weeks, AA stock offers plenty of upside and bang for the buck. * 7 A-Rated Stocks Under $10 Based on the most recent pattern highs and angular resistance, a long in Alcoa could see $65 to $70 over the next 12 to 18 months. Cemex (CX)You'll have to be the judge of whether I left the best infrastructure stock for last. Mexico-based Cemex never quite recovered from last decade's financial crisis. And conditions could get a great deal worse for CX stock.Now, as a victim of slowing global growth and trade wars, CX stock has broken neckline support on its monthly chart. And with shares trading at $3.25 it's hard not to see this bearish pattern as possibly being the final straw for shares of CEMEX. The CX Stock TradeMy recommendation on CX stock is to gain short exposure today. I'd personally suggest a longer-term option such as the January 2021 $3 put. Priced for 55 cents, this bearish contract greatly reduces and limits risk in the event of an adverse pattern failure. And optimistically, if we're right this could be a near five-bagger.Investment accounts under Christopher Tyler's management do not currently own positions in securities mentioned in this article.

    Arconic is splitting into two: Here's what the new companies will be named

    Within the next year, Arconic Inc. (NYSE: ARNC) will split to become Howmet Aerospace Inc. and Arconic Corp., according to the company’s second-quarter 2019 earnings call Friday morning.  Arconic CEO John Plant announced his intention to remain in the role “through separation and beyond.” Plant, who took on the position in February 2019, had previously planned to step down in February 2020 when the split concluded.  Plant declined to identify which of the two new companies he would lead.  “The important thing is to make sure that we had continuity through the separation,” Plant said. Elmer Doty, current president and COO of Arconic, will step down when the companies split, but remain on one of the boards of directors.   Howmet Aerospace Inc. will include engine components, fastening systems, engineered structures and forged aluminum wheels.

    Alcoa Corp. said Wednesday it expects to book a charge of about $135 million, or 73 cents a share, in the third quarter on the sale of Spanish units to Parter Capital Group AG, a Swiss private-equity firm.

The acquisition includes the casthouses at both plants and the paste plant at La Coruña, which are currently in operation, along with the curtailed smelters at both plants. Under the terms of the deal, all 630 employees will be kept on for at least two years. Parter may also restart the plant's smelting capacity. Alcoa shares dipped slightly premarket and are down 13% in 2019, while the S&P 500 has gained 20%.

    RPT-COLUMN-World aluminium output falls as China growth engine stalls: Andy Home

    Global aluminium production fell by 0.5% in the first half of this year, according to the International Aluminium Institute (IAI). More significant in terms of underlying market dynamics is the loss of growth momentum in China, which dominates global aluminium production. As in the rest of the world there is potential for restarts to kick in over the rest of the year but the bigger picture is one of China's giant aluminium machine finally starting to flat-line.

    Aluminum producers in Canada cash in on U.S. tariff exemption

    LONDON/TORONTO (Reuters) - Canada's exemption from U.S. tariffs on imports of aluminum metal has boosted earnings at the Canadian operations of companies such as Rio Tinto and Alcoa, but has not cut costs for U.S. consumers. In May, the United States lifted the Section 232 tariff of 10% imposed on Canadian imports of aluminum, a vital ingredient for auto makers, drinks firms and military equipment companies. Aluminum costs for U.S. consumers are the benchmark price on the London Metal Exchange at around $1,810 a tonne plus the physical market premium, around $400 a tonne.

    From Tesla to Twitter, a Guide to This Week’s Quarterly Reports

    (Bloomberg) -- The upbeat picture painted by this past week’s blowout bank earnings heralded a promising earnings season. Too bad other industries didn’t get the memo.In the same week the five biggest U.S. lenders raked in over $30 billion in earnings for the first time, others around the globe left investors wondering how the bottom fell out so fast. Netflix Inc. sunk the most in three years amid a surprise drop in U.S. customers, while online retailer Asos Plc plunged after issuing another profit warning. Meanwhile, one-time earnings bellwether Alcoa Corp. beat on profit -- but also cut its forecast for global aluminum demand, adding to concerns that trade frictions are eroding the outlook for the industrial metal.This week, a range of high-profile companies report results, from tech titan Amazon.com Inc. and embattled aircraft maker Boeing Co. to burger behemoth McDonald’s Corp. and electric-car maker Tesla Inc. The earnings will offer a glimpse into every major sector of the economy, and Wall Street will be watching for signals like reduced hiring expectations, stalled capital expenses or consumers’ waning willingness to accept price hikes.With stock markets trending near record highs but recession risks on the rise, the second quarter could be yet another notch in the longest bull market in history -- or the beginning of its end.Here’s a look at what we’re watching:CarsAutomaker earnings may show how much the one-two punch of slowing sales and massive technological disruptions are impacting the industry’s bottom line.Those challenges have forced Ford Motor Co. and Volkswagen AG further into one another’s arms. After extending an alliance to include joint work on electric and autonomous vehicles, they’re expected to report stagnant or shrinking revenue. Daimler AG will put out finalized results weeks after the Mercedes-Benz maker posted a preliminary loss along with its fourth profit warning in just over a year. And analysts are projecting another unprofitable quarter for Tesla, which is blowing its battery-powered rivals out of the water but is still struggling to make money.The challenges extend to Asia, too. Nissan Motor Co. is set to give more details about restructuring efforts including potential job cuts as it tries to revive profitability that’s at a decade low. Jaguar Land Rover’s Indian owner Tata Motors Ltd. is also under pressure to show its cost-cut efforts are bearing fruit as it’s hit with hurdles from Brexit, a slowdown in China and flagging demand for diesel vehicles.ConsumerIf sales slow at McDonald’s, Starbucks Corp. or Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc., it will be a sign that consumers are cutting back on spending and eating out less. Higher labor and commodity costs have also forced restaurants to raise prices to maintain margins, and diners might balk at the idea of paying more for coffee and guacamole-stuffed burritos.Higher prices in recent quarters have benefited Starbucks as well as beverage makers Coca-Cola Co. and PepsiCo Inc. At Anheuser-Busch InBev, which just sold its Australian beer assets, investors will listen for any signs an IPO for the rest of its Asian business could be back on the table.China, meanwhile, will be the focus when European luxury conglomerates LVMH and Kering SA report results. The health of sales in that region will be scrutinized after showing surprising resilience in recent quarters, despite an ongoing trade war with the U.S. and the nation’s economic slowdown. Hong Kong protests, meanwhile, are hurting luxury spending at companies such as Richemont and Swatch Group AG.EntertainmentAT&T Inc. and Comcast Corp. can’t wait to enter the battle against Netflix and Walt Disney Co.’s Hulu for streaming-video viewers, but they have to contend with the continued decline of their legacy businesses first. As consumers flee traditional cable packages in favor of services like Netflix, AT&T and Comcast are expected to lose television customers, so investors will watch for signs that broadband subscriber growth can offset those declines.With casino companies including Las Vegas Sands Corp. and MGM Resorts International and their Asia subsidiaries reporting, investors will be on the lookout for any impact from China’s economic weakness.IndustrialsThe future of the 737 Max will be in focus when we hear from Boeing, which plans to report a $4.9 billion accounting charge related to its beleaguered jetliner. Southwest Airlines Co. and American Airlines Group Inc. have already removed the Max from their flight schedules through early November. Southwest is the model’s biggest operator while American is the world’s largest airline, and both carriers are sure to field questions about the Boeing crisis on their conference calls with analysts this week.Another company on the hot seat is aerospace-parts giant United Technologies Corp., whose merger agreement with Raytheon Co. has drawn fire from activist investors Dan Loeb and Bill Ackman. Investors in Caterpillar Inc., meanwhile, will look for more clarity on global demand for the company’s iconic machines in the second half of the year.TechnologyTech investors have a lot of information heading their way, with Facebook Inc., Alphabet Inc., Intel Corp. and Twitter Inc. all reporting. Their main question is whether those firms can keep revenue climbing amid the U.S.-China trade war and signs of slowing economic growth. There’s also mounting regulatory pressure on the sector around antitrust and privacy concerns. One player that’s avoided the recent scrutiny is Microsoft Corp., whose quarterly profit just topped estimates on the strength of its cloud-computing business.For hardware companies like Texas Instruments Inc. and Intel, the focus will be on the loss of market share in China as the companies grapple with a ban on exports to Huawei Technologies Co., a key customer.Amazon’s Prime Day got scads of attention last week, but it won’t be reflected in the company’s upcoming results. Investors in the e-commerce giant will be paying close attention to the fast-growing advertising and cloud business units.BankingEurope’s banks are expected to trail their U.S. peers for yet another quarter as global trade tensions continue to weigh on client activity. And unlike American banks, the Europeans don’t have a healthy stream of income from lending to fall back on due to negative interest rates.Deutsche Bank AG has already announced a loss for the quarter as it embarks on massive cutbacks, and investors will press for more details. France’s BNP Paribas SA has agreed to take on Deutsche’s hedge-fund and electronic-trading clients, but the integration is proving difficult and BNP will have to show progress in turning its own stocks trading unit around following embarrassing losses last year.Finally, Credit Suisse Group AG will have to answer questions about the surprise exit of a key wealth management executive who was seen as a potential successor to CEO Tidjane Thiam.\--With assistance from Brendan Case, Craig Giammona, Joe Deaux, Molly Schuetz, Craig Trudell, John J.

    China, trade wars dent Alcoa’s demand hopes

    Alcoa Corp. expects lower demand growth worldwide for aluminium even amid dwindling inventories of the metal, thanks to a double whammy of trade tensions and macroeconomic headwinds, it said late Wednesday. Shares of Alcoa (AA) fell in the extended session after the aluminium and alumina producer posted a narrower-than-expected second quarter loss but raised the concerns about demand — and the implications for the global economy. Alcoa said it estimates global aluminum demand growth for 2019 between 1.25% and 2.25% this year, down from a previous estimate of growth between 2% and 3%.
