Overall Sector and Industry Analysis
– Datetime range analyzed (EST): 2025-11-03 from 13:30 to 16:00.
– Scope note: You provided late-session 30-minute bars for today. I’m emphasizing momentum and volume development into the close (a key tell for 1–3 day swings). Where “daily” supply/demand is cited, I’m anchoring to clear intraday pivots/whole-number levels that typically align with daily zones, pending confirmation on the next open.
Sector takeaways from today’s price/volume:
– Energy, Offshore/Services: Offshore drillers showed notable accumulation into the close (RIG pushed to 4.00 with a surge; BORR spiked to 3.2978). By contrast, onshore/services were mixed to soft (HAL faded; CLB bled lower). This hints at continued relative strength in offshore contractors (RIG, BORR) vs. broader oil services (HAL, CLB).
– Technology: Mixed. Semis/power components saw risk-on closes (VICR reclaimed HOD into the bell). Enterprise/security was constructive but not explosive (CRWD stabilized after a dip). EMS/optics (FN) faded hard late. Net: stock-picking environment within tech; strength favored names closing near highs (VICR).
– Healthcare/Biopharma: Bifurcated. Large-cap pharma stayed firm (LLY hovered near the top-third of the session). Specialty neuro (HRMY) stair-stepped higher into the close. High-beta therapeutics (TERN) saw heavy distribution all afternoon; CLOV churned; NUTX illiquid drift. Rotation favors quality and steady-accumulation set-ups (LLY, HRMY) over high-beta selloffs (TERN).
– Financials: Insurers/ratings solid (CB, MCO both closed near highs with steady buying). Consumer credit (COF) was flat. The “quality financials” bid remains intact (MCO, CB).
– Consumer/Discretionary: Casinos improved modestly (LVS rising into the bell). TSLA was constructive but contained; leveraged TSLA products (TSLL, TSLR) reflected that.
– Commodities/ETFs: BOIL couldn’t hold highs; natural gas beta faded late, so energy equity strength appears more stock-specific than commodity-led.
Ticker Performance Prediction (next 2–3 trading days)
Likely upside continuation candidates (late-day accumulation, strong closes, or clean break triggers):
– RIG, BORR (offshore drillers; strong into the close)
– VICR (semis/power; strong reclaim and close at highs)
– MCO, CB (quality financials; steady bid, near-HOD closes; MCO the cleaner momentum)
– ISRG (medical devices; grinding higher late)
– HRMY (specialty pharma; stair-step up with volume pickup)
– LVS (discretionary; constructive push into the bell)
– Tactical momentum add: TSLA (needs a clean break >470.7 for energy)
Strongest bullish signals today: RIG, BORR, VICR, MCO.
Individual Stock Analysis
Note: Price targets include near-term resistance-based levels and “pm-range extension” targets using this afternoon’s range as a proxy. Entries/stops are sized for 1–3 day swing risk.
1) RIG
– Key support: 3.97 (late pivot), 3.90, 3.88
– Key resistance: 4.00, 4.05, 4.12
– Next 2–3 day price action: Look for a gap-and-go over 4.00. A brief backtest to 3.95–3.97 is likely; sustained bids above 4.00 open a grind toward 4.05/4.12 and possibly 4.20 on momentum.
– Swing targets: T1 4.05, T2 4.12–4.14, T3 4.20–4.22
– Entry zones: 3.95–3.97 pullback buy; or momentum add on 4.01–4.03 break/hold
– Stop-loss: 3.87–3.89 (below 3.88 reclaim)
2) BORR
– Key support: 3.24, 3.21, 3.20
– Key resistance: 3.30, 3.35, 3.40
– Next 2–3 day price action: Strong close suggests a push through 3.30 early. Expect a quick probe to 3.35; if volume holds, a 3.38–3.40 test is feasible. Dips to low 3.20s should attract buyers if the theme persists.
– Swing targets: T1 3.30–3.32, T2 3.38–3.40, T3 3.45–3.50
– Entry zones: 3.22–3.26 on dip; or through 3.30 with volume
– Stop-loss: 3.18 (below the 3.20 demand zone)
3) VICR
– Key support: 92.75, 92.34, 91.65
– Key resistance: 93.50, 94.00, 95.00
– Next 2–3 day price action: Momentum continuation set-up. A hold above 93.10 and push through 93.50 should target mid-94s first, then a 95 test. Failure back under 92.75 likely produces a digestion day before another attempt.
– Swing targets: T1 93.80–94.00, T2 94.80–95.40, T3 96.00–96.30
– Entry zones: 92.90–93.10 pullback that holds; or breakout >93.50 with rising volume
– Stop-loss: 92.30 (below intraday base)
4) MCO
– Key support: 484.40, 483.35, 482.38
– Key resistance: 485.97 (HOD), 487.50, 490.00
– Next 2–3 day price action: Near-HOD close favors a measured push through 486–486.20. If accepted, 488–489 comes into play, with a stretch toward 490–491 on day-2 strength. Watch for a gentle retest toward 485 that should hold if trend intact.
– Swing targets: T1 486.50–487.00, T2 488.50–489.50, T3 490.50–491.50
– Entry zones: 484.7–485.3 on controlled dip; or 486.1–486.3 breakout/hold
– Stop-loss: 483.20
5) ISRG
– Key support: 542.03, 541.27, 540.11
– Key resistance: 544.84, 546.00, 550.00
– Next 2–3 day price action: Slow grind higher favored. A push/close above 544.84 sets 546–548 on deck; a second-day extension could probe 550 if broader healthcare stays firm.
– Swing targets: T1 545.50, T2 547.50–548.00, T3 550.00–552.00
– Entry zones: 542.5–543.2 on dip-and-hold; add on break/hold above 545.0
– Stop-loss: 541.00 (tighter), or 540.00 (looser)
6) HRMY
– Key support: 29.03–29.05, 28.99, 28.91
– Key resistance: 29.33, 29.42, 29.75–30.00
– Next 2–3 day price action: Constructive stair-step. Over 29.33/29.42, look for a drift toward 29.80–29.90; a follow-through day can attempt 30.20. Failure to hold 29.00 likely means a one-day reset toward high 28.90s before retry.
– Swing targets: T1 29.42, T2 29.80–29.90, T3 30.20–30.30
– Entry zones: 29.05–29.15 on dip; or over 29.43 with volume
– Stop-loss: 28.88
7) LVS
– Key support: 61.64, 61.47, 61.28
– Key resistance: 61.78–61.79 (HOD), 62.00, 62.50
– Next 2–3 day price action: Expect a test of 61.78–61.80 early. Acceptance above 61.80 can bring 62.20–62.30, with a shot at 62.70 on a strong tape. Pullbacks to 61.50–61.65 likely get bought if momentum persists.
– Swing targets: T1 61.95–62.00, T2 62.20–62.30, T3 62.60–62.70
– Entry zones: 61.50–61.65 dip buy; or break/hold >61.80
– Stop-loss: 61.25
8) TSLA
– Key support: 468.22, 465.41, 464.64
– Key resistance: 470.28, 470.72, 475.00
– Next 2–3 day price action: Needs a clean break/hold above 470.7 to unlock higher. If confirmed, 472.5–473.5 comes first; strong flows can tag 475–476.8. A dip toward 466–467 that holds could set the springboard.
– Swing targets: T1 470.00–470.50 (reclaim/hold), T2 472.50–473.50, T3 475.00–476.80
– Entry zones: 466.0–467.0 dip-and-hold; or >470.8 momentum add
– Stop-loss: 464.00 (beneath today’s afternoon low region)
Additional notes
– Financials secondary: CB also looks constructive (supports 277.71/276.85/276.75; resistances 278.36/279/280). It’s slower than MCO but can grind higher; use dips toward 277.7 with a 276.6 stop for a measured swing.
– Momentum microcap: DTCK showed powerful intraday momentum but is high risk (thin liquidity, wide spreads). Only for advanced momentum players with tight risk controls.
Risk management and execution
– Use smaller size on breakout adds; stagger entries around support/demand zones.
– If the early move fails to hold above breakout levels for 15–30 minutes, step aside and wait for a backtest/reclaim.
– Reassess against premarket liquidity and any overnight headlines; widen/ tighten stops accordingly.
