About materials stocks today
Materials are the raw-input sector: chemicals, metals and mining (including gold and copper miners), construction materials, and packaging. Like energy, it's commodity-driven and cyclical — the equities follow the prices of the metals and chemicals they produce, which in turn track global growth, construction, and (often) Chinese demand.
The sector also holds the market's main inflation and safe-haven plays: gold and silver miners can lead when real rates fall or fear rises, while copper and industrial-metal names are a pure read on global manufacturing. A relative-strength screen surfaces whichever theme is in favor. This list ranks the materials leaders against the whole market.
Every evening after the close, StockSetups scans the full US equities universe (~12,300 stocks and ETFs), tags each by sector, and scores its relative strength. This page lists that sector's names from the latest scan, ranked by RS Rating — an IBD-style 1–99 percentile of how each stock's price performance compares to the entire market — so the leaders sit on top. We limit the list to liquid, tradeable names (at least $5M traded a day and a share price above $5) so it isn't cluttered with illiquid micro-caps.
Frequently asked questions
What stocks are in the materials sector?
Materials cover diversified and specialty chemicals, metals and mining (including gold, copper, steel, and aluminum producers), construction materials, and containers and packaging — the suppliers of the economy's raw inputs.
What drives materials stocks?
Underlying commodity prices and the global growth cycle. Industrial metals and chemicals track manufacturing and construction demand, while precious-metal miners often move on real interest rates and safe-haven demand rather than the economic cycle.
How often is this updated?
The list refreshes every evening after the US close, once that day's market-wide scan finishes.
