At Extreme Investor Network, we are dedicated to providing you with exclusive insights and expert advice on all things money. Today, we bring you a special interview with Nucor CEO Leon Topalian, as reported by CNBC’s Jim Cramer.
During the interview, Topalian discussed Nucor’s recent quarterly earnings, which fell short of expectations and led to weak guidance for the current period. Despite this setback, Topalian remains optimistic about the steelmaker’s future prospects.
“I’m comfortable with where we’re at — while prices have moderated some, we’re seeing some strength as we look towards the back half of the year,” Topalian said. “From a volume standpoint, pricing’s a little bit softer, it’s moderated, but, again, this is not time to throw the baby out with the bathwater. We still think 2024 will be a very good year for Nucor.”
Even though Nucor’s shares declined more than 8% after the quarterly report, Topalian emphasized that the company’s steel products segment remains one of its strongest performers. He acknowledged that the second quarter may be “a little bit lower,” but he believes that the best days are still ahead for Nucor.
