NDW Spotlight Stock
PM Philip Morris International Inc. ($189.80) R - Food Beverages/Soap - PM has a 5 for 5 TA rating and sits in the top quintile of the food beverages/soap sector RS matrix. The stock has maintained an RS buy signal against the market since early 2025 and moved back to a positive trend in May. The recent price action saw PM notch a second consecutive buy signal this week while ascending to a new all-time high before pulling back to current levels. The long-term technical picture remains overwhelmingly positive and the near-term picture shows consistent improvement. The stock also shows a yield greater than 3%. Exposure may be considered in the high $180s to low $200s. Our initial stop will be positioned at $160, which would violate multiple support levels and move the stock into a negative trend. The bullish price objective of $232 will serve as our price target.
