Gold, crude oil, lithium and iron ore have always been recyclable favorites among investors… But what if one of these was actually part of a list of the worst commodity stocks to invest in May 2021?
Last week, we saw a heavy amount of bearishnish in the stock market and deep selling in a lot of the names that have been getting crushed.
Technology, semiconductors, FAANG and stay-at-home stocks were among the names hit the hardest.
And we’re about to witness the same thing this week, but with another sector of the market.
I have a good feeling the area of Wall Street that’s been producing great returns lately will begin to show some vulnerability.
Guys, I’m talking about commodities related stocks, so how about the worst commodity stocks in May 2021?
The Worst Commodity Stocks in May 2021s
I’m starting to see some strange moves in the charts of commodity stocks that were going parabolic…
If you take a look at the BBG Commodity Index monthly spreads, you’ll notice the massive uptrend commodity stocks have been moving in.
Crude oil is up 35% year-to-date, aluminum is up 24% YTD, copper is up 31% YTD and even corn is up 34% YTD.
And while these are all incredible moves, last week there was a particular movement in a commodity name that waved a major red flag at me…
Iron ore has been climbing in 2021 — up about 30% on the year.
Economists predict this trend will last through the end of the year, as global steel consumption is expected to increase by 4.1% year-on-year.
However, the month of May isn’t being kind to this hot commodity…
Looking at the SSIF DCE Iron Ore Futures Index ETF chart, you’ll see that iron ore had about a 30% move up in April, and then a sudden, massive retracement in May.
Why’s that?

P.S. Wall Street legend Chuck Hughes is about to share the secret behind his Triple Threat strategies.
It’s the exact same strategy that gave him the chance to grow his small $5,900 trading account into over $212,217…
In just two years!
Chuck’s never shared details with the public on how he achieved that number…
But after some major convincing, I talked him into offering a select number of traders the opportunity to not only get in on these trades, but to master the stock market.
