WOOD: Timber Stocks Outperforming Amid Louder Tariff Talk
The iShares Global Timber & Forestry ETF (WOOD) shows strong performance due to its international exposure and compelling valuation, despite market volatility. WOOD's heavy Materials sector weighting and low P/E ratio present a strong valuation case, but watch for economic growth and seasonal trends. Technical analysis indicates key support near $74, with potential resistance at $80; a breakdown could target $63. Use limit orders due to low liquidity.

The Case For WOOD In 2025
Lumber prices could surge due to lower interest rates, pent-up housing demand, and infrastructure projects under the new U.S. administration. The iShares Global Timber & Forestry ETF is highly sensitive to lumber prices and could offer value at current levels, despite recent underperformance. The bullish case for 2025 includes declining short-term rates, robust housing demand, potential tariffs on Canadian lumber, and wildfire rebuilding efforts.

WOOD: Lumber Sits And Waits For A Rate Cut
Physical lumber futures remain in a narrow trading range, with prices staying under $150 in 2024. Lumber futures have experienced a consolidation period, leading to a narrower range between annual highs and lows. Despite efforts to increase liquidity, lumber futures remain highly illiquid, making trading and investing challenging.

WOOD: It's No Lumber, But It's A Good Sector
iShares Global Timber & Forestry ETF tracks the S&P Global Timber & Forestry Index, offering exposure to companies in the timber and forestry sector. Timber and forestry products have a stable market and can act as a hedge against inflation. WOOD provides diversification, potential for growth, and aligns with sustainable investing considerations, but carries risks of market volatility, sector concentration, and interest rate sensitivity.
