  • Beta, last 3 months −1.50 less rate-sensitive lately than over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days −2.11% on average against −0.74% for the S&P 500 the 10 sessions of the past year in which TLT fell most, i.e. long yields rose most
  • Latest of those days −2.87% TLT −1.29% that day 2026-09-24

What it does
Cleveland-Cliffs makes steel products in the United States and Canada, including hot-rolled, cold-rolled and coated sheet, plate, and stainless and electrical steel.

Who it is priced against
Closelooknet's peer group does not list a set for this name; the comparison the market draws is with U.S. Steel, another domestic integrated steelmaker.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
It holds a seat in the Russell 1000 but carries no Closelooknet score or peer group yet, and it has not been quoted in our editions.
What the diary watches
Whether steel demand from automotive and infrastructure customers holds up, since that is what would move a name priced mainly on domestic industrial activity.

  • On stocks the scanner's machine count appears automatically in grey — it is fully editable: drag any point, double-tap a label to remove it, Delete to dismiss it for good, Adopt to bring the machine's proposal back.
  • The sequence picker switches 1-5 / A-B-C / A-E / W-X-Y-Z; 1 2 3 cycles the degree; Subdiv starts a one-degree-smaller child count inside a wave.
