Global Hunter Securities initiates coverage on Cliffs Natural Resources (NYSE: CLF) with a Neutral.
Analyst, Wayne Atwell, said, "Management is transforming the company into a source of raw materials for the global steel industry, which is benefiting from economic growth in the developing world. It is a major global iron ore producer and a significant producer of high- and low-volatile metallurgical coal in the US and Australia. It is expanding its iron ore capacity in Canada from 8 million tons to 24 million tons, and in Australia from 8.5 million tons to 11 million tons, and is at the feasibility stage with its Black Thor chromite project. We look for a meaningful improvement in its profitability in 2013 as it ramps up its two iron ore expansion projects and cuts costs...While we believe CLF shares are attractively priced, we suggest investors postpone taking a position until the slowdown in the global steel industry is fully reflected in its shares."
