Shares of Ternium S.A. (NYSE: TX) spiked into positive territory mid-session, with no significant news releases.
Although, Barclays analyst, Leonardo Correa, was out with positive comments on the stock, stating that recent nat gas price weakness wasn't reflected TX's share price. He felt that during a recent investor meeting, the relatively strong point that TX has cost advantages vs. other steel mills in the region in weak nat gas price environments was overlooked.
Correa maintains an 'Overweight' rating and raises the price target from $24 to $26. He also noted that TX is their 'Top Pick' in the Latin American Steel sector. FY12 EPS estimate increased from $2.24 to $3.14.
