ArcelorMittal (MT) shares have surged nearly 70% year to date, climbing the SIA relative strength rankings and breaking out of a decade-long technical base. Momentum indicators like ADX show increasing trend strength as shares push through key resistance levels. As seed capital for Form Energy since mid-2021, MT is committed to ESG goals by investing in iron-air battery technology still in the conceptual phase that could power its steel mills in the future, similar to Xcel Energy’s partnership with Form Energy highlighted last week as a leading “gro-tility” in long-duration energy storage. This commitment is reflected in the hands-on leadership of Lakshmi Mittal, who regularly visits the mills on Sundays, engaging with workers and experiencing the sights and sounds of the plants firsthand, demonstrating a level of involvement uncommon among billionaires.
