McDonald’s: Trendline Breakout Before EarningsMcDonald’s has slid for about three months, but it may be attempting a breakout as earnings loom. The first pattern on today’s chart is the series of lower highs since October. MCD pushed above that falling trendline in late January and has stayed above it since. That may suggest an intermediate-term decline has ended. Second is the August 16 weekly close of $278.49. The hamburger giant tested and held that level a few weeks ago. The bounce coincidentally occurred near the 200-day simple moving average (SMA). Speaking of moving averages, the 50-day SMA had a “golden cross” above the 200-day SMA in September. Is the longer-term trend getting more bullish? Next, the 8-day exponential moving average (EMA) is above the 21-day (EMA). MACD is also rising. Both of those signals may be consistent with a short-term uptrend. Quarterly results are due Monday morning.

2/7/25 - $elf - I bought $66 AH, BUT... nuanced2/7/25 :: VROCKSTAR :: NYSE:ELF I bought $66 AH, BUT... nuanced - this will become a name i follow/ comment on a A LOT more in the coming year - sub 20x PE is already "value", but it's not "obvious" - it's not obvious for the simple reason that we don't have a resolution on growth trends until we see more scanner data and another quarter - while new launches (product, doors e.g. Wmt, DG and geos) should bode well for a brand that is gaining share - and honestly - share gains are more important than category softness... we need more data - in this tape, unfortunately, this type of reaction is "justified" as silly as it looks - if you zoom out, the mgns remind me of HQ software, and it's not unreasonable to say put 5x on 1.5 bn of fwd year sales and get to 7.5 bn EV which puts this stock at closer to $135 in a 12-18 mo time frame. - given stock is at mid 60s, that's nearly a 2x, even risk adjusted - MIND THE GAP in the low 60s, given the first one (in the mid 80s) filled - see the gray horizontal bars on this chart. TL;DR... downside likely 15-20% (and probably market-related in the short-term just "fine") and upside probably also 10-25%... so BALANCED. but all else equal, the upside is much more (and possibly has the ability to compound). so the stock *is* a buy here, but it needs to be risk adjusted and ST expectations tempered. I'm at 2% and will park here. as you know i've been stacking high cash (40% of book as of last night), and this is a good parking spot. i won't be trading this one around, just adding each 5% lower.

PLTR....crash is pending everyone knows itSeen many insiders selling at the current (hyper inflated) market price. Do not buy at the top (ATH) you are only looking to getting wrecked and losing out. We just experienced a combination of major hype and a short squeeze. The daily jump was just a few amateur traders getting squeezed out. All in all, fake demand that will crash any day, you can leverage PLTD (inverse). The higher they rise, the harder they fall! If it's not in your radar, it def should be!! Always do your own due diligence. Best of luck and safe trading!

A Bet on Green Chip and Data Center InfrastructureSupporting Arguments Fundamental Undervaluation Due to Past Issues: SMCI experienced a significant sell-off following unproven allegations of financial reporting fraud. Currently, the company trades at a discount compared to peers that only partially focus on data center infrastructure solutions. Financial Results Release for FY 2024: The market is pricing in a potential NASDAQ delisting due to delays in financial reporting. The current deadline for the company is February 25, which is likely to be a decisive moment for this investment thesis. Investment Thesis Super Micro Computer Inc. (SMCI), founded in Silicon Valley, has been a niche supplier of server solutions for data centers for over 15 years. The company has significantly disrupted the server and storage systems market, achieving growth rates surpassing its competitors. SMCI offers a comprehensive 360° solution, covering hardware, support, software, and security. An independent audit found no evidence of fraud or misconduct by the company’s management, yet the stock trades at highly attractive valuation multiples while maintaining strong growth potential. Fundamental Undervaluation Due to Past Issues. Currently, SMCI trades at a forward P/E ratio of 10, while its closest competitors (Dell, Lenovo, HP), which offer only partial infrastructure solutions, trade at an average multiple of 11.6. The emergence of more efficient AI infrastructure solutions in China (such as DeepSeek) is putting pressure on the industry. However, Jevons' paradox suggests that increased efficiency may drive demand for AI development among companies that previously avoided entering the market due to high barriers to entry. Even if demand for data center infrastructure weakens, it remains positive due to the exponential growth of global data consumption. FY 2024 Financial Results Release. The company must publish its financial reports by February 25. Currently, the market fears a potential delisting, but we believe this risk is low. It is important to note that SMCI recently underwent changes in its finance department, which naturally affected the reporting timeline. It is likely that the company’s management has reviewed and adjusted its financial disclosure processes. Given that SEC reviews have been positive and there have been no major delays in the past, it is difficult to imagine that the company will fail to report on time. The next month will be crucial for the stock, and we see a high probability of a valuation reassessment by investors. Our target price for SMCI stock is $40, with a "Buy" recommendation. We recommend setting a stop-loss at $22.5.

Amazon (NASDAQ:$AMZN) Slides 4% Amidst Cloud Growth SlowdownAmazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) shares slid nearly 4% in pre-market trading on Friday, as investors reacted to a slowdown in the company's cloud growth and a subdued sales forecast for the current quarter. The dip comes despite strong performance in Amazon's retail segment and a broader technical breakout that suggests the stock may be poised for a significant upward move in the coming months. Let’s dive into the technical and fundamental factors driving Amazon’s current market dynamics and why this dip could be a buying opportunity for long-term investors. Cloud Growth Slowdown Weighs on Sentiment Amazon Web Services (AWS), the company’s cloud computing division and a key profit driver, reported a 19% year-over-year revenue increase to $28.79 billion for the quarter. While this growth is impressive, it fell slightly short of analyst expectations of $28.87 billion, according to LSEG data. This miss has raised concerns about the competitive pressures AWS faces from rivals like Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud, as well as emerging low-cost competitors such as China’s DeepSeek. Technical Outlook From a technical perspective, Amazon’s stock chart tells an intriguing story. As of Friday’s pre-market trading, AMZN was down 2.78%, but the stock recently broke out of a falling trend channel, signaling a potential reversal of its previous downtrend. While the stock has yet to capitalize on this breakout, the current dip could be interpreted as a "shakeout" before a significant upward move. Key technical indicators support this bullish thesis: - Relative Strength Index (RSI): The RSI remains strong at 60, indicating that the stock is neither overbought nor oversold and has room to climb. - Moving Averages: AMZN is trading well above its 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages, a sign of strong underlying momentum and bullish sentiment. This technical setup suggests that the pre-market dip may be a temporary pullback rather than the start of a sustained downtrend. For traders and investors, this could present an attractive entry point. Strong Revenue and Earnings Growth Amazon’s financial performance in 2024 has been impressive, with revenue reaching $637.96 billion, a 10.99% increase compared to the previous year’s $574.79 billion. Earnings surged by 94.73% to $59.25 billion, reflecting the company’s ability to scale profitability even as it invests heavily in growth areas like AI and cloud infrastructure. The company’s 12-month forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 37.3 is higher than peers like Alphabet (22.7) and Microsoft (30.1), but this premium is justified given Amazon’s diversified business model, dominant market position, and long-term growth potential. Analyst Sentiment: Strong Buy Rating Wall Street remains overwhelmingly bullish on Amazon. According to 43 analysts, the average rating for AMZN stock is a "Strong Buy," with a 12-month price target of $254.3, representing a 6.48% upside from the latest price. At least seven brokerages raised their price targets following the earnings report, bringing the median target to $260. Analysts are optimistic about Amazon’s ability to navigate near-term challenges and capitalize on long-term growth opportunities in AI, cloud computing, and e-commerce. The company’s heavy investments in AI infrastructure, while weighing on margins in the short term, are expected to pay off handsomely in the coming years.

ECONBHD - Looking for bullish sentimentN wave with V, N & NT projection. The price is inside the Kumo, suggesting a neutral or consolidation phase, which indicates potential support at the NT level (0.410). Being above the cloud suggests a bullish sentiment. The Chikou Span is within the price action, indicating indecision. The Tenkan-Sen is slightly below the Kijun-Sen, showing weak bearish pressure. The Kumo is green, which typically indicates bullish conditions, even though there may be resistance ahead. Consider entering a long position around 0.430 provided the price stays above NT level (0.410) or on a confirmed breakout above the N level (0.505) with strong volume. This can enhance the likelihood of a sustained upward trend. Confirmation: Look for bullish candlestick patterns or a strong close above the Kumo to validate the entry. Set a stop-loss at 0.400, just below the NT level. This will help protect against adverse movements in case the buying pressure does not sustain. Bearish risk: If the price breaks below the NT level (0.410), a retest of lower levels near 0.390 or lower could occur. Note: 1. Analysis for education purposes only. 2. Trade at your own risk.
