Steel ETF (SLX) Hits New 52-Week High

SLX hits a 52-week high, up 57% from its low, boosted by regulatory relief and strong sector momentum.

Washington Just Handed Steelmakers a Huge Win: ETFs to Gain

Trump's move easing EPA rules boosts the steel supply chain, setting ETFs like XME up for firmer pricing power and steadier volumes.   

United States Senior Counselor for Trade and Manufacturing Peter Navarro said Thursday that Washington will maintain tariffs on steel and aluminum with no exemptions for the European Union.“There will be no exemptions, no exclusions for steel and aluminum tariffs,” Navarro told reporters. He noted that the U.S. added more than 400 new products to the tariff list this week to curb manipulation and circumvention. “Every time we try to give an exemption or exclusion to one of our allies, they abuse it totally. We learned that it was a slippery slope,” Navarro said, recalling Trump’s previous term in office.Navarro also praised the administration’s 15% tariff on cars, describing it as a cornerstone of Trump’s trade strategy with Europe. “Anybody who criticizes Trump’s policy has to look at the president’s magnificent achievement in dealing with the EU,” he said.His comments come after the U.S. and EU&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/us-eu-announce-tariffs-autos-pharma/chsSuh2Rdid">issued</a> a joint statement earlier on Thursday, formalizing the trade deal announced back in July. The statement also included the possibility of lowering the 15% tariffs on cars, but only if Europe takes steps to lower tariffs on imported U.S. goods as promised.“In many ways I can’t think of a deal more important than the one with the EU. It is, after all, one of the largest entities in the world. It’s important not just economically but strategically, yet for many, many years it has been taking unfair advantage of the U.S.—consistently higher tariffs, consistently higher non-tariff barriers,” Navarro added.U.S. markets were trending lower ahead of Powell’s speech at Jackson Hole on Friday. The&nbsp;<a href="http://stocktwits.com/symbol/SLX">VanEck Steel ETF</a> (SLX) fell 0.5% in afternoon trade, and the&nbsp;<a href="http://stocktwits.com/symbol/IYM">iShares U.S. Basic Materials ETF</a> (IYM) edged 0.1% lower. On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around SLX and IYM trended in ‘neutral’ territory.Read also:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/trump-nearly-500-m-civil-fraud-penalty-tossed-by-new-york-appeals-court/chsS6vHRdij">Trump’s Nearly $500M Civil Fraud Penalty Tossed By New York Appeals Court</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Sector ETFs to Lose/Win From Oil Price Rebound

Oil rebounded on strong demand signals and easing trade tensions, boosting XOP and SLX while pressuring XRT, CRAK, JETS, and GDX.

The U.K. is racing to finalize a trade agreement with President Donald Trump to avoid higher U.S. steel tariffs ahead of the July 9 deadline.“We are working with the U.S. to get this over the line as soon as possible,” U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s spokesperson, Tom Wells, told reporters on Monday, as&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-07-07/uk-races-to-get-us-to-cut-steel-tariffs-ahead-of-key-deadline">cited</a> by Bloomberg. “The best thing we can do for industry is to get this deal implemented.”&nbsp;The&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/SLX">VanEck Steel ETF (SLX)</a> was down more than 1.3% in morning trade. The ETF has gained nearly 20% this year and 4% over the past 12 months. Despite the downswing, retail sentiment on Stocktwits around SLX improved to ‘bullish’ territory from ‘neutral’ a week ago.&nbsp;At stake is the U.K.’s exemption from a 50% tariff on steel and aluminum exports to the U.S. The country is currently subject to a 25% duty, but that could double unless the trade deal between the two countries, known as the U.S.-U.K. Economic Prosperity Deal (EPD), signed in May, is fully implemented before next week’s deadline.Steel exports to the U.S. are a key part of the U.K. economy, with the American market being its second-largest customer. Trump has warned that if the U.K. is found to be non-compliant with the EPD, tariffs “on or after July 9” may be raised.In February, Trump instated 25% tariffs on steel and aluminum. In June, those were doubled for most countries – but the U.K. received a temporary reprieve due to the EPD. Unless a final agreement is reached, that exemption may be lifted.In the U.S., steelmakers have generally backed the tariffs, arguing they help shield American jobs and protect the industry from underpriced imports. The American Iron and Steel Institute said the duties help guard against market disruptions caused by global oversupply.U.S. equity markets opened in the red on Monday even after the Trump administration hinted that the July 9 tariff deadline could be extended to August 1. The&nbsp;<a href="http://stocktwits.com/symbol/SPY">SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF (SPY)</a> edged 0.25% lower, while the&nbsp;<a href="http://stocktwits.com/symbol/QQQ">Invesco Trust Series 1 (QQQ)</a> ETF, which tracks the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100, was down 0.4%.&nbsp;For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Read also:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/elon-musk-america-party-to-accept-bitcoin-tesla-ceo-says-fiat-is-hopeless/chFtkIIR577">Elon Musk’s ‘America Party’ To Accept Bitcoin – Tesla CEO Says ‘Fiat Is Hopeless’</a>

Shares of U.S. Steel ceased trading on the New York Stock Exchange on Wednesday following the completion of its takeover by Japan-based Nippon Steel, marking the end of the storied American manufacturer’s independent run.This newly formed alliance establishes a global steelmaking force, promising over $11 billion in investments across U.S. Steel facilities by 2028.&nbsp;The strategic plan is designed to protect and expand more than 100,000 jobs in states such as Pennsylvania, Minnesota, Alabama, Indiana, and Arkansas.U.S. Steel will continue to operate under its historic name and maintain its headquarters in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.&nbsp;As part of the finalized agreement, the companies have also signed a National Security Agreement (NSA) with the U.S. government, which secures specific operational and structural guarantees to safeguard national interests.Under the NSA, the company’s executive leadership and board will remain predominantly American. Production operations will continue within the U.S., and the steelmaker’s independence in trade matters is preserved.&nbsp;A new Golden Share issued to the U.S. government grants federal authorities powers to approve or reject changes to the company’s capital investments, domestic operations, and headquarters location.The Golden Share grants the U.S. President or an appointed representative the ability to weigh in on matters such as moving production offshore, changing the company name or location, or acquiring U.S. competitors.&nbsp;Additionally, the government will designate an independent board member.The merger is set to boost Nippon Steel’s annual crude steel capacity to roughly 86 million tons, bringing the company closer to its target of 100 million tons worldwide.&nbsp;Former President Joe Biden had halted Nippon Steel’s $14.9 billion deal to acquire U.S. Steel, pointing to potential threats to vital supply chains.Then, in April of this year, President Donald Trump ordered a renewed examination of the transaction, directing the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States to conduct a more thorough review.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment toward Nippon Steel remained in ‘neutral’ territory.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:950/110;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2025_06_18_105253_png_7c4abe5898.webp" alt="NPSCY's Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 11.00 a.m. ET on Jun.18, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits" width="950" height="110"><figcaption>NPSCY's Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 11.00 a.m. ET on Jun.18, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>Also See:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/retail-goes-gaga-over-ast-spacemobile-vodafone-idea-deal/chls4ZKRR27">AST SpaceMobile’s Partnership With Vodafone Idea To Launch Satellite Mobile In India Sparks Retail Frenzy</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.
