Overall Sector and Industry Analysis
Datetime range analyzed (EST): 2025-11-21 13:30 to 19:30. Note: Only intraday data for this session was provided; I infer short-term momentum and relative strength from this window and late prints.
- Market tone: Risk-off into the regular session close. Inverse ETFs (SDS, SQQQ, SRTY, SSG) pushed higher between 14:30–16:00, and UVXY ticked up after-hours. That implies broad indices faded late day, yet several names exhibited relative strength by holding/closing near highs or continuing higher after-hours.
- Tech/Internet:
- Megacap internet showed resilience: GOOG/GOOGL pushed higher after-hours to ~302, closing near session highs, signaling relative strength vs the late-day index fade.
- Software mixed: SEMR pinned at 11.78 all afternoon (accumulation feel but no break), CRNC flat-to-slight uptick then reverted.
- Semis/optics: LITE stair-stepped higher post-close; however, SSG (inverse semis) rally into the close suggests broader semi softness—LITE a relative-strength exception.
- Healthcare/Biotech (heavy representation in this list):
- Large-cap pharma/biotech steady: LLY, REGN, JAZZ relatively firm but not momentum leaders today (REGN had a notable after-hours spike print).
- Diagnostics/medtech (EXAS, IDXX) leaned soft to flat into the close.
- Small/mid-cap therapeutics showed pockets of momentum: ZYME closed on the high at 16:00, with higher after-hours prints; VSTM held near 10 with persistent bid; TYRA had a strong range but faded off highs; NRIX posted heavy late volume with a firm close.
- Consumer/Industrials/Discretionary:
- Retail & services mixed-to-soft: CASY, EAT, MUSA, LZB, DY, IDXX faded into the close.
- Standouts: BLLN ripped 6–7% in the afternoon and held gains; LQDT surged into the close to HOD; AZO flat/slightly soft; GWW bounced back late but remains range-bound.
Notable patterns
– Rotation into quality large-cap tech (GOOG/GOOGL) despite index pressure.
– Select biotech momentum (ZYME, VSTM, NRIX, TYRA earlier) with volume expansion.
– Late-day breakouts in some niche/smaller caps (LQDT, BLLN) that held gains—often a good short-term continuation tell.
Ticker Performance Prediction (next 2–3 days)
Likely upside continuation candidates (strongest first):
– GOOG (and GOOGL): After-hours continuation and relative strength vs indices. Bullish.
– ZYME: Closed at HOD into 16:00 with higher AH prints; momentum candidate.
– LQDT: High-of-day close on a volume ramp; constructive for follow-through.
– BLLN: Strong trend day, held most gains; room to continue if it clears 110s.
– LITE: Quiet but persistent post-close climb; relative strength vs semi softness.
– VSTM: Consistent bids near 10; grinding trend with expanding volume.
– KLRS: Intraday higher highs/higher lows with volume into the close; watch for a quick 7.00–7.20 test.
Stocks showing strong bullish signals: GOOG, ZYME, LQDT are the cleanest (relative volume, strong closes, and/or AH continuation).
Individual Stock Analysis
Method notes for levels/targets: With only today’s intraday window available, I used clear intraday swing points, round numbers, and observable supply/demand pivots as proxies for near-term daily zones. 1–3 day targets reflect nearby resistance and a conservative proxy of recent range/ATR.
1) GOOG
– Supports: 300.10–300.20 (round/vwap area), 299.30, 298.00
– Resistances: 302.00, 304.20, 306.50
– 30-min outlook (2–3 days): Expect buy-the-dip behavior above 300; a morning pullback to ~300–300.5 that holds should lead to a push through 302. A 302 hold flips bias to a grind toward 304–306 if market stays neutral.
– 1–3 day price targets: 303.50, 306.00, 308.00
– Entry ideas: 300.30–300.80 on a controlled pullback; add through 302 on strength.
– Stop-loss: 299.20 (below intraday support and round-number fail); tighter traders: 299.70.
2) ZYME
– Supports: 24.02, 23.92, 23.50
– Resistances: 24.71 (AH print), 25.00, 25.80
– 30-min outlook (2–3 days): Strong close + AH uptick suggests a quick open test of 24.70–25. If it flags above 24.20–24.30, look for a squeeze into 25–25.80. Failure to hold 23.90 would delay setup.
– 1–3 day price targets: 25.00, 25.80, 27.00
– Entry ideas: 24.10–24.25 on a dip and hold; momentum add through 24.75–25.05.
– Stop-loss: 23.70 (below demand shelf).
3) LQDT
– Supports: 27.60, 27.40–27.45, 27.20
– Resistances: 28.10–28.20, 28.60–28.90, 29.50
– 30-min outlook (2–3 days): HOD close signals potential day-2 push. Look for an early dip to ~27.60 that holds, then a drive to 28.10–28.60. Sustained strength could extend toward 29s within 1–3 sessions.
– 1–3 day price targets: 28.40, 28.90, 29.50
– Entry ideas: 27.55–27.65 on a controlled pullback; add through 28.10.
– Stop-loss: 27.20 (below afternoon base).
4) BLLN
– Supports: 107.10, 105.65, 104.50
– Resistances: 110.50, 112.60, 114.25
– 30-min outlook (2–3 days): Trend day with orderly pullbacks. If 107–108 holds on a dip, look for a push into 110.5 and potentially a grind toward 112–114 as momentum persists.
– 1–3 day price targets: 110.50, 112.60, 114.25
– Entry ideas: 107.30–108.10 on weakness; add through 110.60 if breadth cooperates.
– Stop-loss: 105.70 (below key intraday shelf).
5) LITE
– Supports: 256.00, 255.40, 253.50
– Resistances: 257.80, 259.50, 262.00
– 30-min outlook (2–3 days): Quiet relative strength after-hours despite broader semi softness. A hold above 256 keeps the path open to 259–262. If semis firm broadly, could accelerate.
– 1–3 day price targets: 259.50, 262.00, 265.00
– Entry ideas: 256.20–256.70 on early dip; momentum add on reclaim/hold of 258.
– Stop-loss: 254.90 (beneath session structure).
6) VSTM
– Supports: 9.95–10.00, 9.82, 9.60
– Resistances: 10.14, 10.30, 10.50
– 30-min outlook (2–3 days): Persistent bid around 10 with rising volume—setup for continuation. Expect a test of 10.14/10.30; if those clear with volume, a measured extension toward 10.50.
– 1–3 day price targets: 10.30, 10.50, 10.90
– Entry ideas: 9.90–9.98 on dips into the round-number base; add through 10.15.
– Stop-loss: 9.72 (below higher low structure).
7) KLRS
– Supports: 6.87, 6.75, 6.62
– Resistances: 7.07, 7.20, 7.40
– 30-min outlook (2–3 days): Intraday trend of higher highs/higher lows with late volume. A pop over 7.07 likely tests 7.20 quickly; sustained above 7.20 opens 7.40.
– 1–3 day price targets: 7.20, 7.40, 7.70
– Entry ideas: 6.86–6.92 on dip-buys; momentum add through 7.08.
– Stop-loss: 6.73 (below session higher-low pivot).
Context and risk management
– Indices were weak into the close (inverse ETFs bid). Favor relative-strength names on pullbacks rather than chasing breakouts into resistance, especially if the broader market opens soft.
– If the market continues risk-off, tighten stops and defer adds until levels reclaim and hold.
– After-hours prints can be illiquid; confirm levels on regular-session liquidity before execution.
If you want, I can recompute levels/targets with true 10- and 30-day ATR and daily supply/demand from the full daily chart history once provided.
