Freeport-McMoRan, Clearway Energy And A Financial Stock On CNBC’s ‘Final Trades’
On CNBC’s “Halftime Report Final Trades,” Bill Baruch of Blue Line Capital said Freeport-McMoRan Inc. (NYSE:FCX) reported quarterly earnings on Thursday.
Copper is going higher and Freeport-McMoRan will follow, he added.
Phoenix, Arizona-based Freeport-McMoRan reported fourth-quarter revenue of $5.72 billion. It missed the consensus of $5.99 billion. Copper sales totaled 1 billion pounds — slightly above the October 2024 estimate. Copper sales declined year-over-year owing to lower ore grades and the timing of shipments at PT-FI.
In the basic materials sector, Jenny Van Leeuwen Harrington of Gilman Hill Asset Management, LLC picked Clearway Energy, Inc. (NYSE:CWEN), which is a renewable power generation company.
On the earnings front, Clearway Energy is scheduled to report fourth quarter 2024 financial results on Monday, Feb. 24.
