theflyonthewall.com: Cliffs Natural: Earnings release technical preview, float-skew, gap risk
BULLISH CASE: On better than expected news/outlook the stock could trade to the upper limit of the bearish price channel at $36.16. On a bullish breakout above the price channel the following resistance levels would become upside objectives: $36.74, $37.60, $38.63, $39.88, $40.75, $42.16, $43.74. BEARISH CASE: On worse than expected news/outlook the stock could trade to support $34.99, $33.70 and to the lower limit of the price channel at $32.12 -- the 50-day moving average. On a bearish breakdown below the price channel the following support levels would become downside objectives: $31.37, $30.80, $30.05, $29.50, $28.80, $28.02. NOTE: Small short-base at 2 days to cover, but with a large 6.7% of the float short. Traders are positioned more for negative news. Reactions on a surprise, especially a positive one given the float-skew, have a high probability of being extreme in duration and price. Very high gap risk. :theflyonthewall.com

theflyonthewall.com: Cliffs Natural dissolving Michigan Iron Nuggets JV with Kobe Steel
Cliffs Natural Resources announced that it plans to dissolve its Michigan Iron Nuggets Joint Venture with Kobe Steel. Cliffs indicated that throughout the life of the venture it had conducted a number of feasibility studies on the possibility of pursuing a commercially viable process, but ultimately concluded that given its strategic priorities to focus on its core business, continued work on the project should be ended. Cliffs said it had less than 10 employees exclusively working on the joint venture and plans to reassign nearly all to other positions within the company. In addition, there are no anticipated material financial impacts as a result of the decision. :theflyonthewall.com

theflyonthewall.com: Cliffs Natural's inexpensive value makes it a target, Bloomberg reports
No North American miner is a cheaper takeover candidate than Cliffs Natural Resources (CLF) which sells for 6.4 times its cash from operations, after deducting capital expenses, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. That’s less than every other metals or mining company in the U.S. or Canada exceeding $5B in market value, and a 70% discount to the median, and is also the least expensive relative to its estimated net income this year and next, the data show, says Bloomberg.
