ConAgra Brands | CAG | Long at $19.38ConAgra Brands NYSE:CAG , maker of Marie Callender's, Healthy Choice, Birds Eye, Orville Redenbacher's, Slim Jim, and many more, has seen a continuous drop in share price since the rise of interest rates, inflation, and tariffs. The stock is currently trading near its book value of $18.71 and has a dividend yield of 6.9%. Debt-to-equity is reasonable (0.9x), but the company does have a Quick Ratio of 0.2x (short-term liquidity issues) and a Altman's Z Score (bankruptcy risk) of 1.7, which should ideally be 3+. Like almost every large-scale food company, earnings growth is relatively low, but 2025 is anticipated to be its worst performing year - which explains the price.
While the stock is not likely to generate triple-digit returns in the near-term, NYSE:CAG is a strong company with a nice dividend and some growth ahead. I foresee such stocks getting new life with drops interest rates. However, a dip near $17 (into my "crash" simple moving average area) or even slightly lower is possible - which may likely result in another stock entry.
Thus, at $19.38, NYSE:CAG is in a personal buy-zone with future entries planed near $17 or below.

Where is Verizon headed next?Some quick points about the slight dip Verizon experienced over the past 5 trading days. Did bears step in and reject higher prices for VZ? Is the potential for a rally over?
In my opinion. No. But why you ask?
This stock trades relatively inverse to 10 year treasury yields. The 4 down days recently coincided exactly with 4 green days for 10 year yields. This is because if treasury prices fall, and thus yields go up, it makes Verizon theoretically less appealing because though you will generate less yield from treasuries, they are backed by the US government.
So in order for Verizon's yield to be more competitive with treasuries, naturally the price declines. When treasury yields drop, VZ can naturally rise, because the dividend can decline relative to price, and it's still appealing. This wasn't investors souring on Verizon, or the bears rejecting a rally, it was investors worrying about US debt repayment, and demanding higher interest payments from the government.
So why did yields spike for 4 days? The Big Beautiful Bill. Basically if the government borrows a bunch of money, and investors think that maybe there is a risk that they won't be able to pay them back, they demand a higher yield (treasury prices fall, and yields go up).
But if you ask me, that yield spike may already be over. The market tends to over-react to big news like this, and there are a few things happening right now that favor VZ going higher, I will list them below :
10 year yields have been trending down for months, they spiked, but only touched the top of the downtrend channel before retreating. They look poised to continue the downtrend for the second half of the week. Remember, the trend is your friend. Until yields break this channel convincingly and create an uptrend, you can assume they will continue downwards.
When tech stocks fall, yields tend to fall even faster, because investors seek the safety of treasuries to preserve capital and wait out the dip, which pushes bond prices up, and drives yields down (good for high dividend stocks like VZ).
Most tech stocks, and the QQQ ETF are looking very overbought. Earnings season is coming, but it looks like all of that action has already been priced in. There are bearish divergences appearing all over the place in tech stock RSI charts, I personally started closing out some positions already.
I'm still bullish on tech into the end of the year, but right now there is a lot of risk chasing the big names higher IMO. This is the longest stretch of days in 3 years without a 5-10% correction, which is already a red flag in itself. I won't be surprised to see some of the big names start to pull back as early as tomorrow, some of them have already begun to pull back. At least a minor correction looks highly probable, a deeper correction within the next few weeks.
10 Year Bond futures bounced and started climbing today (albeit, just a little, but in the right direction).
The market seems to be forgetting that US Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent's former job was literally selling US debt (driving yields down). He has made a career out of pushing yields down, and has stated it's his major goal with this administration. And like Elon said "if you are betting against the bond market, I think you are on the wrong side of that bet." (in short, this is a bullish theme for dividend stocks which are sensitive to yield fluctuations).
All in all, my thesis from previous posts remains. VZ is going higher, so long as 10 year yields don't rocket to all-time highs and stay there forever, and there is no apocalyptic earnings report, I see no reason why it won't.
$PEP Bullish Swing Setup – Oversold & Ready to Rebound ?PepsiCo ( NASDAQ:PEP ) is sitting at a major long-term support after a deep pullback — this could be a strong opportunity for a risk-defined bounce. Here's what the chart is signaling:
🔹 Entry Zone: Price is currently near $128 — a historically significant level that acted as resistance in the past and now aligns with a potential support flip.
🔹 Oversold & Stretched: After a consistent downtrend, NASDAQ:PEP is looking oversold. A bounce is likely as sellers exhaust and dip buyers return at this key level.
🔹 Reversal Structure Building: Early signs of a bottoming pattern are emerging, with potential higher lows forming. If the current structure holds, we could see a climb toward the next resistance zones.
🎯 Targets:
TP1: $154 – minor resistance and previous consolidation zone.
TP2: $197 – major resistance and range high, aligning with earlier highs.
🛡️ Stop Loss: Below $102 — invalidates the support thesis and breaks structure.
💡 Why Price May Rise:
PEP is a defensive name with strong fundamentals, often benefiting during uncertain macro cycles.
Valuation is now more attractive after the sell-off.
The setup offers a high reward-to-risk ratio, especially if broader markets stabilize.
⚖️ Setup Summary:
Entry: ~$128
SL: $102
TP1: $154
TP2: $197

XRP Price Finds Some Relief — But Headwinds Remain,Says ArtavionAfter slipping below $0.50 last week, XRP has rebounded modestly, now trading above $0.52. While this short-term recovery provides relief for holders, fundamental and structural challenges still limit the token’s upside potential, according to analysts at Artavion.
The recent bounce appears largely technical. Support held near $0.48, and with Bitcoin regaining strength above $66,000, sentiment across altcoins briefly improved. XRP’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) has moved out of oversold territory, suggesting some room for additional upside — but resistance between $0.56 and $0.60 remains firm. Low trading volume suggests the rally lacks conviction.
A major ongoing concern remains XRP’s legal battle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Although Ripple Labs scored partial wins, the case is unresolved. Until a final judgment or settlement is reached, institutional investors will likely remain cautious, and U.S.-based platforms will continue restricting XRP exposure.
🗨️ “The legal cloud hasn’t lifted — and that limits capital inflows,” says a regulatory analyst at Artavion.
From a network perspective, XRP Ledger remains functional and Ripple’s payment infrastructure is active, particularly in select cross-border corridors. However, XRP still lacks integration with key crypto sectors like DeFi, NFTs, and gaming, which restricts organic demand and developer activity.
Externally, macro conditions are neutral to negative for altcoins. The Federal Reserve’s rate outlook and rising bond yields continue to pressure speculative assets. Stablecoin inflows into XRP trading pairs have slowed — another signal of fading short-term appetite.
Outlook
At Artavion, we believe XRP is currently locked in a range-bound pattern. A breakout above $0.60 is unlikely without:
Full legal clarity in the U.S.;
Stronger altcoin sentiment market-wide;
Renewed ecosystem development and integrations.
🗨️ “XRP isn’t broken — it’s waiting,” says the Artavion market desk. “But without a catalyst, it stays reactive — not directional.”
John Deere position trade setupI have been wanting an excuse to add this to my portfolio for a while now. Primarily because Bill Gates has it in his portfolio. I like to try and copy the most successful investors like Warren Buffett, Cathy Wood, Bill Gates, etc... I paid the market price today for a position with a cost average of $525. The intrinsic value of the stock is between $250 - $1050 so its not ideal to be in at $525 but I am not playing the voting game, I prefer the weighing game. I want to see how the position affects the other things I have in my portfolio and hopefully improve the performance with this stock in there. Maybe I will buy more if I can find a reason to add to the position in case it starts losing money because dividends are being paid out soon. I have drawn a simple technical analysis predicting a two legged pullback pattern.

Canadian Natural resources is undervaluedUsing my simple method of technical analysis and fundamental calculation of the intrinsic value of a stock for which the range of intrinsic value of CNQ is between $35-$55. Assuming oil can make a reversal at this pivotal time in history for the world the stock looks very cheap. It also pays good dividends soon which was a bonus I bought some at $31 dollars for the market price. It looks like a great addition to make a nicely diversified portfolio.
Simple Coca Cola daily chart analysisCoca Cola, my favorite defensive stock seems to be at a price decision in time. I have found a single trend line that looks reasonable. There seems to be a lot of congestion in price over the last few days this leads me to believe a breakout is coming soon. 25% of my portfolio is Coca Cola, it pays great dividends and I love the history of the company. It is a solid choice for these economically uncertain times, I think they do soda better than anyone else I been drinking Coca Cola as long as I can remember its still my favorite.
I believe its possible to see a retracement down to cheaper prices but I also don't believe in waiting for such occurrences to happen so I have already been accumulating for the last few weeks. The range of the intrinsic value of Coca Cola is between $50 - $180. My prediction for the price is that it will go up over the next 12 months. Thank you for reading my article and best wishes, cheers.
Waste Management price predictionFundamentally WM stock is proven to be resistant to recession. I have a position on the stock as a hedge against uncertainty it makes up about 15% of my portfolio as of this writing. I am looking to buy more at lower prices since I bought at a premium a couple weeks ago. I will try and hold indefinitely as the other growth stocks I have chosen continue to grow I don't expect much from this boring stock but it makes me feel better to have it in my portfolio than it does not to. The range of the intrinsic value is between $170 - $620.
Why I Use Covered Calls: Monthly Income, StrategyDescription:
In this video, I break down why I use covered calls as part of my long-term investing strategy—especially inside tax-advantaged accounts like Roth IRAs. Whether you're looking to generate steady monthly income, reduce downside risk, or are open to selling your stocks at a premium, covered calls can be a powerful tool.
🧠 What You'll Learn:
Why covered calls are ideal for long-term holders who want extra income
The basic requirements (100 shares, option approval, etc.)
Why volatile stocks yield better premiums than dividend stocks
My personal method: targeting 0.20 delta strike prices on a monthly timeframe
Risks like being assigned and limiting your upside
💡 Key Takeaway:
If you’re not using a tax-advantaged account, your capital gains are taxable—so consider strategies like this inside an IRA.

In a future video, I’ll dive into the Wheel Strategy and selling puts to generate income from cash reserves.
Czech Republic: A Dividend HeavenThe Prague Stock Exchange (PSE) PSECZ:PX is characterized by a concentration of mature, dividend-paying companies, particularly in sectors such as energy, banking, and heavy industry. Unlike growth-focused exchanges in the U.S. or Asia, the Czech market offers relatively few stocks with high reinvestment or expansion trajectories.
Preference for Payouts
Over the past two decades, Czech listed companies have consistently distributed a significant share of profits as dividends. This reflects both limited reinvestment opportunities in a relatively saturated domestic market and a shareholder preference for cash returns. For example, CEZ and Komercni banka have maintained payout ratios above 70% in most years.
Structural Support & Tax environment
The Czech Republic provides a structurally supportive environment for dividend-oriented investors. One key advantage is the tax framework. Czech residents are exempt from capital gains tax if they hold an investment for more than three years. This strongly favors long-term investing.
For non-residents, a 15% withholding tax on dividends applies—unless the investor resides in a country outside the EU/EEA that does not have a tax treaty or tax information exchange agreement with the Czech Republic.

Bitcoin Income: STRK vs IBIT – Dividends, Covered CallsThis video provides a performance breakdown between two Bitcoin-related financial instruments—STRK (Strike) and IBIT—through the lens of passive income generation. I compare traditional buy-and-hold strategies with more active income tactics such as covered calls. Key insights include:
STRK provided the best return YTD (26%) and yielded approximately 1.54% in passive dividends, requiring minimal effort—just buy, hold, and collect.
IBIT, while slightly trailing in growth (13%), is optimized for a covered call strategy, offering an impressive 6% income yield through active options trading.
The analysis highlights the trade-off between simplicity and engagement—STRK is more passive-friendly, while IBIT offers higher yields for those willing to manage options.
This is ideal for tech-savvy investors exploring Bitcoin ETFs and derivative income strategies, weighing convenience versus return potential.
SWDY Chart AnalysisEl Sewedy Electric stock trend rose last period from the support line 76.249 to the resistance line 83.77, then rebounded to reach the support line 79.001, so the general trend was down by 1.04%. The stock rose and broke the first support line at 78.287, to get the second support line at 78.389, then the third support line at 78.650. On the other hand, when the stock rebounded, it broke the first resistance line at 83.505 to reach the second resistance line at 83.097, then the third resistance line at 82.914. This upward trend is due to the acquisition of the majority of the stake in Thomassen Service, which is 60%. This step unlocks expansion into Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.
EURUSD I Weekly CLS I KL - OB, Model 1 target - 50% AMD in playHey, Market Warriors, here is another outlook on this instrument
If you’ve been following me, you already know every setup you see is built around a CLS range, a Key Level, Liquidity and a specific execution model.
If you haven't followed me yet, start now.
My trading system is completely mechanical — designed to remove emotions, opinions, and impulsive decisions. No messy diagonal lines. No random drawings. Just clarity, structure, and execution.
🧩 What is CLS?
CLS is real smart money — the combined power of major investment banks and central banks moving over 6.5 trillion dollars a day. Understanding their operations is key to markets.
✅ Understanding the behaviour of CLS allows you to position yourself with the giants during the market manipulations — leading to buying lows and selling highs - cleaner entries, clearer exits, and consistent profits.
🛡️ Models 1 and 2:
From my posts, you can learn two core execution models.
They are the backbone of how I trade and how my students are trained.
📍 Model 1
is right after the manipulation of the CLS candle when CIOD occurs, and we are targeting 50% of the CLS range. H4 CLS ranges supported by HTF go straight to the opposing range.
📍 Model 2
occurs in the specific market sequence when CLS smart money needs to re-accumulate more positions, and we are looking to find a key level around 61.8 fib retracement and target the opposing side of the range.

ORAS Stock Fundamental AnalysisORAS trend was neutral between the support line 266.851 and the resistance line 291.935, the trend was down by 0.14%. The stock rose, and broke the first support line to reach the second support line 267.905, then the third support line 268.432. It's expected to keep rising till reaching the resistance line 290.144, then 290.671, because of the CBE's decision about cutting the interest rate by 2.25% which will have a positive impact on corporates because according to the current reasons behind the economic activity decreasing interest rate will lead to decreasing the cost of borrowing which will decrease the cost of production and will increase the corporates' profit and their monetary value. On the other side, this will decrease the products' price and individuals will have a higher will to diversify their investment beside increasing their purchasing power as well.
Good PalantirianNoticed recently there is very few NASDAQ:PLTR stock for sale on the market. As a good and kind trader I decide to borrow ad sell couple of NASDAQ:PLTR like a good move to provide liquidity to the market and help other traders to obtain so passionately desired Palantir stock.
Dear Palatirians pls don't get me wrong. I'm not betraying our faith, just need to step back for a while
