NDW Spotlight Stock
DRI Darden Restaurants, Inc. R ($202.16) - Restaurants - DRI is a 4 for 5'er and member of the restaurants sector matrix that has been on market and peer RS buy signals since 2020 and 2021, respectively. After giving two consecutive sell signals and falling roughly 15% from its 2026 high, DRI rallied, returning to a buy signal and a positive trend last week when it broke a triple top at $200. Long exposure may be added in the $190s to low $200s and we will set our initial stop at $168, which would violate multiple levels of support on DRI's chart. We will use the bullish price objective, $226, as our target price. DRI also carries a 3% yield.
