Overall Sector and Industry Analysis
– Datetime range analyzed (EST): 2025-12-15 13:30 to 19:30.
– Note on scope: The dataset contains intraday 30‑minute bars from a single session (regular + after-hours), not a full 30‑day history. Conclusions emphasize the most recent 10 intraday bars and session structure as a proxy for short-term momentum.
Sector/industry takeaways from price/volume:
– Financials (mega-cap payments and banks) neutral to slightly firm on light after-hours flow: V, MA, AXP, GS, BLK printed tight ranges with little follow-through; no fresh momentum edge.
– Travel/leisure mixed with softness in cruiselines: RCL faded into the close; MAR rebounded late but slipped after-hours; BKNG held steady. Net: uneven demand in travel.
– Industrials steady, not explosive: GWW, URI, DE held ranges with modest upticks and orderly tape; more “carry” than “momentum.”
– Healthcare/bio bifurcated: UTHR broke above 500 into the close (constructive), LLY and MCK were tight/flat, REGN faded midday and stabilized. Small/mid-cap biotech prints were choppy (VOR, OLMA).
– Software/Tech and services: EQIX ground higher on stable volume; EVCM showed a decisive expansion day (range expansion + volume surge through 13.50s), a momentum standout in the group.
– Retail/apparel mostly muted: ANF, AEO, LULU, DBI stuck in ranges; WRBY heavy. No broad retail bid.
– Metals/miners mixed: AGQ (silver) trended down; leveraged miner ETFs (JNUG/NUGT/GDXU) were firm but illiquid after-hours—signals are inconclusive.
– Cannabis lit up late: MSOS/MSOX and TLRY spiked on heavy after-hours flows, then retraced modestly—momentum present but volatile; needs early-session confirmation.
– Select small/mid-cap industrial/semis showed constructive closes: FEIM stair-stepped to session highs; PLAB closed at the high on expanding volume.
Noticeable patterns
– Breakout-and-hold behavior with rising volume: EVCM, FEIM, PLAB, MMYT, UTHR.
– Momentum spike in cannabis with partial fade (watch for day-2 confirmation): TLRY, MSOS/MSOX.
– Mega-caps and financials: tight consolidations, no ignition (V, MA, AXP, GS, BLK).
– Travel/leisure divergence (BKNG firm vs. RCL weak) suggests selective positioning rather than broad sector momentum.
Ticker Performance Prediction (next 2–3 days)
Likely to move higher (strongest momentum signals):
– EVCM, FEIM, MMYT, UTHR, PLAB, MAMA, TLRY.
Highlights
– Strongest breakout profiles into the close with volume: EVCM, FEIM, PLAB.
– Large-cap healthcare breakout continuation candidate: UTHR over 500.
– Consumer/travel tech with steady bid: MMYT.
– Cannabis momentum swing (higher risk/volatility): TLRY.
– Small-cap food/CPG recovery setup with strong closing bar: MAMA.
Individual Stock Analysis
Notes
– Support/resistance derived from today’s session structure (30‑min bars) due to limited lookback; treat as near-term zones.
– ATR proxies use today’s intraday range.
EVCM
– Supports: 13.10, 12.86, 12.49–12.51.
– Resistances: 13.58 (HOD), 13.75, 14.00.
– 30‑min outlook (2–3 days): Look for early dip buy above 13.10; hold above 13.10 opens a push through 13.58 toward 13.90–14.10. Losing 12.86 likely forces a deeper retest of 12.50s before buyers reattempt.
– Swing targets (1–3 days): 13.90, 14.10, stretch 14.40 (range expansion).
– Entry: 13.10–13.20 on pullbacks or 13.62–13.65 breakout retest.
– Stop: 12.82 (beneath 12.86) or wider 12.48 if using 12.50 zone.
–
FEIM
– Supports: 44.47, 44.20–44.25, 43.56.
– Resistances: 44.86 (HOD), 45.00, 45.50.
– 30‑min outlook: Consolidation under 44.90 then breakout test. Ahold above 44.20 keeps higher-low structure intact; through 44.86 should open 45.20–45.50.
– Swing targets: 45.20, 45.80, 46.20.
– Entry: 44.20–44.40 pullback or 44.90 break-and-hold.
– Stop: 43.40 (below session base).
–
MMYT
– Supports: 84.00–84.05, 83.73, 83.70.
– Resistances: 84.60 (HOD), 85.00, 85.50.
– 30‑min outlook: Expect tight opening drift; holding 84 keeps the breakout setup live. Push through 84.60 targets 85–85.50. Below 83.70, momentum pauses.
– Swing targets: 85.00, 85.50, 86.20.
– Entry: 84.00–84.10 pullback or 84.65 break with volume.
– Stop: 83.55.
–
UTHR
– Supports: 498.50, 496.96–497.00, 495.23.
– Resistances: 500.30–501.05, 503.00, 505.00.
– 30‑min outlook: Break-and-hold over 501 sets 503–505 test; dips to 498–499 should attract buyers if trend remains intact. Lose 496.9 and breakout fails short-term.
– Swing targets: 503.00, 505.50, stretch 508.00.
– Entry: 498.8–499.5 pullback or 501.10 reclaim.
– Stop: 496.40 (beneath day pivot).
–
PLAB
– Supports: 36.85, 36.75, 36.35.
– Resistances: 37.20 (HOD), 37.50, 38.00.
– 30‑min outlook: Strong close at highs favors an opening flag; through 37.20 opens 37.50–37.80. Pullbacks to 36.85 should be defended on first touch if trend persists.
– Swing targets: 37.50, 37.90, 38.20.
– Entry: 36.85–36.95 pullback or 37.22 break.
– Stop: 36.30.
–
MAMA
– Supports: 13.45, 13.34, 13.28.
– Resistances: 13.59 (HOD), 13.75, 14.00.
– 30‑min outlook: Bullish reversal day closing at highs; look for an early check-back to 13.45–13.50 and a reattempt at 13.60+. Break of 13.60 targets mid 13.70s.
– Swing targets: 13.75, 13.95, 14.20.
– Entry: 13.45–13.52 pullback or 13.62 break.
– Stop: 13.24.
–
TLRY
– Supports: 11.00–11.03, 10.93, 10.90.
– Resistances: 11.20, 11.35, 11.60.
– 30‑min outlook: High-volatility momentum. Early hold above 11.00 suggests another probe of 11.20–11.35; need volume confirmation. Lose 10.90 and momentum likely stalls for a day.
– Swing targets: 11.35, 11.60, stretch 11.85.
– Entry: 11.00–11.08 pullback with tape confirmation or 11.22 breakout.
– Stop: 10.85 (tighter) or 10.78 (looser, below AH base).
–
Bonus watchlist (momentum, but slightly lower conviction due to liquidity/after-hours context)
– PLTZ: Supports 24.15/24.30; resistances 24.54/24.70/25.00; targets 24.80–25.00; entry 24.20–24.30; stop 23.98.
– RGTZ: Stair-step up into the close; watch 22.50 hold for 22.85–23.10. Liquidity caution.
Risk management and execution notes
– Focus on confirmation: require volume on breakouts (especially for TLRY/cannabis and small/mid-caps).
– Respect first pullback to support zones; if levels fail on closing basis (30‑min), exit rather than average.
– Position size down on higher-volatility names (TLRY) and after-hours driven breakouts (EVCM day‑2).
