After a period of significant global economic volatility, Freeport-Mcmoran's FCX is making waves in the market. Despite its stock losing 25% in 3 months, there's a surge in buying interest from heavy hitters like FIL Ltd, Invesco Ltd, and Renaissance Technologies. A surprising factor is the company's US-based footprint, which analysts suggest might be an advantage amid risks related to copper import tariffs. Amidst fluctuations, the stock has caught the eye of Wall Street analysts, and Jim Cramer, who suggests FCX as a 'buy' with copper prices poised to surge. However, there were concerns over global growth by the CEO.
In spite of recent setbacks, Freeport-McMoRan's five-year gains stand at an impressive 644%, and the company has recently confirmed its dividend at US$0.15 per share. With strong institutional ownership, FCX is a stock heavily influenced by large investment firms. However, recent global growth concerns and disappointing Q4 earnings with a decline in copper sales have put pressure on the stock, causing it to underperform.
