The price of aluminum is losing its luster after the U.S. government walked back its sanction threat against a key Russian producer.
The US Government today signaled it may give the world’s second largest Aluminum producer, Rusal, a break on aluminum sanctions. Alcoa has dropped almost 12% in response to the action.

The stock recently peaked over $60 on the sanctions and a decent 2018 outlook. Take a look at our Alcoa post-earnings report here from last week.

Billionaire oligarch Oleg Deripaska, who previously ran Rusal, was also slapped with sanctions and has been charged in special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation.

Morgan Stanley estimates Rusal supplied approximately 9 percent of U.S. aluminum imports in 2017. Alcoa Corp said "considerable uncertainty remains in global supply chain" on Wednesday, partly due to the sanctions.
