ANALYSIS: StockJumpers trajectory analysis reveals positive market sentiment on the release news, AFTER a brief drop in price. This may not be a straight-forward jump on the news – due to mixed metrics but the stock looks to gain as the release numbers are digested. This could be a wait and see than buy on the dip. We will trade this long, but may hold back on our trade allocation amount until we see the dip first.
We are LONG for the event. The Trade Room will have updated news and moves.
