More Top Calls From Mike
In his Trading Room this week, Mike Paulenoff highlighted Sonos, Inc. (SONO) on Monday when it was trading at $12.99.
Mike liked the stock's powerfully developing 18-month base formation that was propelling it from its March low at $6.50 towards a confrontation with multi-month resistance at $16.00-17.00.
As fate would have it, a bullish report was issued by a well known independent research firm, which placed a $30 target on SONO.
In his Trading Room early this week, Mike Paulenoff wrote that Slack Technologies (WORK) looked poised to hold key near-term technical support at 29.50 off of its June 3 high at 40.78, and to turn up to challenge and take out key near-term resistance at 32.75-33.60.
Mike's analysis was informed by a combination of the chart and the potential impact of growing Coronavirus cases on demand for work-at-home technology platforms.
WORK was trading at 30.
We've been following Telsa (TSLA) closely in our MPTrader Trading Room, particularly in this past topsy-turvy week.
With Zoom (ZM) at a price of 202 and heading into its earnings announcement Tuesday June 2, Mike Paulenoff noted in his Live Trading Room:
"Unless ZM breaks and sustains below 190.00, it still has unfinished business on the upside into the 228-232 target zone, which is the next zone from where the bullish intermediate-term pattern should stall, and roll over into a potentially significant correction.
On May 7, as the iShares Silver Trust (SLV) broke out of a moving average cluster just above 14.00, Mike Paulenoff noted that "a big directional move [was] approaching" which would initially challenge the 14.80 prior rally high and beyond that 15.65/85.
