If there is one thing that can create an instant unilateral gain in a sector, government protection can do just that. President Donald Trump has announced new tariffs on Thursday aimed at protecting the U.S. steel and aluminum industries.

A tweet from this morning from the president:

Our Steel and Aluminum industries (and many others) have been decimated by decades of unfair trade and bad policy with countries from around the world. We must not let our country, companies and workers be taken advantage of any longer. We want free, fair and SMART TRADE!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 1, 2018

President Trump has confirmed that tariffs would be coming, at a rate of 25% for steel imports and 10% for aluminum imports, starting in the days ahead. The president widely expected to issue new tariffs to protect steel and aluminum companies. Not all the companies had risen in anticipation of the news, but almost all of them saw their stocks rise on Thursday morning.

24/7 Wall St. has tracked multiple stocks tied to steel and aluminum, and most of them were surging on Thursday morning. That said, some lagged others, and some were not even up on the day. We have tracked how some of these companies are still down from the highs seen earlier this week, and we have also tracked longer trading history over the last year. Consensus analyst price target data came from the Thomson Reuters sell-side estimates.
