NDW Spotlight Stock
ZION Zions Bancorporation R ($69.97) - Banks - ZION is a 4 for 5'er that ranks in the top half of the favored banks sector matrix and recently gave an RS buy signal for the first time since 2023. On its default chart, ZION has completed two consecutive buy signals and reached a multi-year high at $73 in last week's trading. The stock has subsequently pulled back into the upper $60s, offering an entry point for long exposure. Long exposure may be added in the mid-to-upper $60s and we will set our initial stop at $55, which would violate ZION's bullish support line. We will use the bullish price objective, $87, as our target price, giving us a reward-to-risk ratio approaching 2.0. ZION also carries a 2.5% yield.
