Nucor is trading at $242.99 (5.1% down) in after-hours trading as the stock undergoes a sharp reversal from its initial post-earnings rally.
- The decline follows broader market risk-off pressure triggered by the Fed decision and escalating Middle East tensions, which are weighing heavily on the industrial sector.
- Despite strong Q2 results and upbeat Q3 guidance, the stock is facing significant profit-taking and an extended-hours pullback amid thinner liquidity.
