Early Bird Prime for November 16, 2025

Cleveland-Cliffs $CLF ( ▲ 2.09% ) is the stock that’s been quietly tiptoeing up the market staircase this year, only to find itself lagging behind the broader market. Shares of the steel producer are up 12.47% in 2025.

Just a few days ago, an analyst from Wells Fargo decided to upgrade Cleveland-Cliffs to Equal Weight. The analyst’s optimism is rooted in the short-term view on steel prices, but they’re also waving a caution flag about the company’s long-term competitiveness. 

Now, let’s talk about the recent challenge. Since reporting disappointing earnings on October 20, Cleveland-Cliffs has taken a nosedive, plummeting over 33%. Investors were not pleased with the recent financial results.

Speaking of financials, Cleveland-Cliffs has been on a losing streak. With a five-year record of deepening annual losses, recently clocking in at -35.8% annually, it’s tough to watch. Their Q3 2025 net loss of $234 million is a problem.

Should you buy Cleveland-Cliffs stock right now in 2025, or should you avoid it? Here’s the answer:
