Aluminum Supply Shocks Are Changing The Game For Alcoa

Aluminum usually doesn’t get the spotlight like gold or copper, but right now the market is unusually tight. A mix of Middle East supply disruptions, shipping issues, and U.S. tariffs has pushed prices higher and given Alcoa (NYSE:AA) a massive boost. The stock is up nearly 134% over the past year and is now trading close to its highs around $70.
