Sector & theme notes (from today’s headlines mix)
- Staples/Consumer: multiple positives (e.g., Advance Auto Parts, Align) amid idiosyncratic guidance pressure for eBay.
- Industrials/Materials: Agnico, Airbus showed constructive tone; Wabash National flagged in negatives.
- Utilities/Energy: Xcel Energy in the red cohort; several U.S. utilities logged softer tone.
- Advertising/Agencies: WPP cuts growth outlook—sentiment negative there.
Vlad’s Take
- Tape read: The breadth of positives exists, but guidance shockers (e.g., Fiserv) and margin-squeeze worries (e.g., Cigna) are stealing the headlines.
- Setups: For names with clean “beat + raise” vibes, the best entries usually come on the first tight flag after the reaction day. Where the story is a guide-down, let the dust settle—often needs multiple sessions to reprice.
- Execution: Keep size smaller into guidance-heavy names; use ATR-aware stops and re-rate thesis only after the first post-print consolidation.
