EB Watch List Update Report
Dear Members,
KEY EARNINGS REPORTS:
Thursday: ADSK, BBY, BKE, DLTR, GME, GPS, INTU, MRVL, PLCE, ROST, SPLK
Friday: ANN, FL, PBR
MARKET NOTE:
Solid economic reports have lifted the U.S. stock market after a fairly rough opening. Home construction stocks are benefiting from a better than expected existing home sales report from October and usually home construction bullishness carries over to the broader market. It's no exception today.
ADDITIONS TO WATCH LISTS:
There are no additions to our Watch Lists today.
BRIEF COMMENTS ON SELECT WATCH LIST STOCKS:
Short Watch List:
There are no Short Watch List stocks at this time.
Large Cap Watch List:
AMGN - Touching price resistance, could use more volume to confirm another breakout.
ILMN - Was down more than 4 bucks earlier, but that loss has been cut in half after nearing 20 day EMA support.
PLL - Near its highest level since being added to our Watch List. Volume is fairly light today and there's a long-term negative divergence in play. WE ARE REMOVING PLL FROM OUR WATCH LIST AS IT REPORTS EARNINGS NEXT WEEK.
RAX - Needs more volume but it's attempting to break out above the recent highs near 44.00.
Mid Cap Watch List:
AMBA - Again touched recent price support near 47.50 before bouncing nicely.
CRS - Currently printing a bullish engulfing candle at 20 day EMA support.
INFN - Trying to print a bullish engulfing candle at 20 day EMA support.
MLNX - Volume slowing near recent price support of approximately 41.25.
SNCR - Not much of a bounce today after yesterday's big selling, but it has thus far held onto price support in the 41.50-42.00 zone.
TASR - Solid volume and a potential long-term breakout near 20.50. Bullish action. Buying at least a partial position on this breakout not a bad strategy.
Small Cap Watch List:
No comments at this time.
DELETIONS FROM OUR WATCH LISTS:
PLL is being removed as earnings are approaching. There are no other deletions today unless closing stops are triggered.
Happy trading!
