Alphabet: Strong Backlog and TPU Lead Make a Trimmed Buy at 30x

Alphabet: Strong Backlog and TPU Lead Make a Trimmed Buy at 30x

Alphabet’s recent momentum - highlighted by a large backlog and gaudy Cloud/AI growth - undermines the deepest bear arguments. At $393 the stock is trading near 30x trailing earnings with strong profitability and $64.4B in free cash flow. I recommend a trimmed long: enter on weakness, hold for up to 180 trading days, target $460 and use a $355 stop…

Waste Management: Setup Looks Buyable After a Calm Pullback

Waste Management (WM) is a high-quality, defensive industrial with a sizeable moat and steady free cash flow.

Buy HIMS on the GLP-1 Reset — Patience into a 45-Day Swing

Hims & Hers reported modest top-line growth but a margin hit as it shifted away from compounded GLP-1s to branded Wegovy/Ozempic distribution. The pullback after Q1 is an opportunity to take a directional swing: buy at market with a clear stop and a 45-trading-day target that prices in re-acceleration and gross-margin recovery.

Jabil: The AI-Driven Margin Cycle Is Just Getting Started

Jabil is transitioning from revenue-driven returns to genuine margin expansion as AI server demand lifts utilization and higher-value system assembly. The business is firing on multiple cylinders - intelligent infrastructure growth, stronger FCF and a falling incremental cost curve - which supports a tradeable long with defined risk management.

Otis: Oversold Setup With Material Upside - Upgrade to a Tactical Long

Otis: Oversold Setup With Material Upside - Upgrade to a Tactical Long

Otis (OTIS) looks compelling as a tactical long after recent weakness knocked the stock to $71.01. The company generates solid free cash flow ($1.668B) and just increased its quarterly dividend to $0.44, supporting a 2.66% yield. Valuation is reasonable at ~18.4x earnings and EV/EBITDA ~14.0. Near-term risks - project timing, margin pressure, and e…

Chord Energy is trading near its 52-week high but still shows fundamental support: a $1.3 quarterly distribution, ~$501M in free cash flow, low net leverage and an active capital-return program. Management signaling confidence through buybacks and payouts plus improving technicals make a mid-term swing long attractive, with a clear stop and target …

We outline a long trade with a $55.42 entry, $91.92 target (66% upside) and a $44.00 stop, supported by accelerating underwriting results, expanding partnerships and attractive valuation multiples rel…

Celestica: A Tactical Long on Faster AI Pathways

Celestica: A Tactical Long on Faster AI Pathways

Celestica delivered blowout top-line growth and raised guidance, but the stock has tumbled after the print. The pullback looks like a tactical buying opportunity to play Celestica's manufacturing leverage into AI rack-scale — a mid-term swing trade that balances upside to the recent 52-week high with a disciplined stop below technical support.

Short the Spread: A Tactical Play on Nathan's Famous Ahead of Deal Close

Short the Spread: A Tactical Play on Nathan's Famous Ahead of Deal Close

Nathan's Famous is trading just below the $102 cash offer from Smithfield Foods. The arbitrage spread is slim and liquidity is limited, but ongoing shareholder lawsuits and process questions create a short-duration opportunity for traders who can manage execution risk. This trade idea lays out an entry at $101.20, a stop at $103.00, and a target of…
