Nucor Stock 12 Month Chart
The 12 month chart of Nucor Stock is even more telling. The stock has set up a strong pattern of lower highs and lower lows since reaching above $58 in September of 2014. Since then the stock has been in trouble. Three rally attempts have failed with lower highs being put in place. What is worse is the pattern of lower lows that also developed with the stock moving from a low around $48 last fall to $42.75 this July. These are classic signs of a stock in a downturn and Nucor is showing both of them.
This year the stock has been caught in a very tight range with defined upside and downside valuations. It is obvious investors are concerned about Nucor and its earnings potential.
