Trade Ideas

Honeywell breakout with support at $220.
Honeywell shows a technical breakout with higher highs and higher lows, holding support at $220-225 (former range ceiling now floor). If it reaccelerates and stays above $220, it is an orderly uptrend. Can set trailing stops at $220, close below would be an issue. It is a consistent uptrend worth buying.

EM massive base breakout, must be long.
Emerging markets (EEM) are up 58% last year and 28% YTD, forming a massive base since 2007. The larger the base, the higher in space. Most people are underallocated. The rally is driven by AI (Samsung, SK Hynix) but the asset class is attractive. Must be long.

HST inverse head and shoulders watching.
Host Hotels & Resorts (HST) is forming an inverse head and shoulders pattern on monthly candles since 2012. It has cleared the neckline but still faces resistance around $245. It is a REIT that could be the next long-term uptrend. Watching for a clean breakout above resistance.

CDNS breakout, relative outperformer in software.
Cadence Design Systems (CDNS) is a relative outperformers in software, breaking out on a weekly chart with a very bullish candlestick. It is an orderly breakout and looks phenomenal. Buy a stock already going up.
