5 STOCKS I’M BUYING AS MARKET SELLS OFF!?📉

Absolutely abysmal day for the tech stocks today, guys. AI got nailed, the S&P went down, and believe it or not, the Dow and the Russell actually somehow someway uh had green day. So, we have to break down the Q's. SPY and five stocks I'm watching right now. Also, some news regarding Starbucks and Chipotle. We're hearing Starbucks might buy Chipotle. Yeah, we have to break down my thoughts there. some pros, some cons. So, guys, hit the like button, make sure to subscribe, and uh let's dive into it. So, at this point, the markets closed. We closed about an hour ago, and the Q's had a 1.3% red day. Uh not too bad. Nothing that we haven't seen before, obviously. In fact, we did see a decent bounce into close. At one point, we were down even more. We hit 743 on the low today. Um, so at one point I think we were down over 2%. Let's see here guys. We hit 743. Um, yeah, we were down almost 2% at one point. Then we rallied into close closed at about 747 trading right above this 50 moving average on the 4hour chart. So eh not too bad, you know. Yeah, red day but not too bad technically speaking, right? SPY had a point 4% red day. So about a half a percent down. It closed right above the 50 SMA here on the 4hour chart as well just like the Q's right and the Dow had a.1% green day. Uh really nothing much pretty much at break even. Same with the Russell. Um again tech stocks got nailed as the 10-year went crazy. We hit a 25-y year high or whatever it was on the 10-year. We covered that in my video um earlier today. We had oil go up. the VIX went up and whenever we're seeing um you know obviously inflationary pressures, bond yields going up, this is well hurting growth stocks and we really saw that today um in the AI sector if you will a lot of these AI stocks got hit and thanks to you know Samsung and the South Korean market we saw those um stocks get hit. We covered that in my previous video that bled into the US market today. So yeah, pretty rough day overall for the Q's. Uh but not the end of the world. You know, I think a lot of these stocks, not every stock out there, but a lot of these stocks could be buying opportunities right now. And I'm holding on to all my AI stocks, you know, and one in particular, uh we might as well start breaking some of these down. One in particular I'm looking to buy is uh SKH Highix. SKH Highix is trading right at 170. I was actually going to buy a little bit today. um at 168. I probably should have. That would have been a nice quick trade. It closed at 170. Not that I would have sold. Um so, I mean, whatever. But this one I'm looking at on the weakness as we're heading into earnings. I think I mentioned it in my previous video. Uh we have earnings on the 27th, so about 2 3 weeks away from now. I just think we're due for a short-term bounce on SKH Heinix. And I didn't pull the trigger yet. Maybe we get it a bit lower into tomorrow. That'd be nice. Uh, but I think anywhere in this 160 to 170 pocket is a good buy uh for SKH Highix for a swing trade. Uh, that that's the way I'm looking at it. Robin Hood's another one that I think is just too beaten up in the short term and it could get worse. Who knows? I'm not saying this is the bottom on these stocks. Uh, but I think it's approaching a buy zone, especially into earnings coming up on the 27th, especially as Bitcoin and crypto has done very well since their last earnings. And I I don't think people are giving giving them enough credit for that right now. And I think that's going to be a surprise in their earnings report. And I think it's going to reflect in the stock price. I'm not sure if you guys listened to the last Robin Hood call. Um, I don't think they talked about crypto at all. They didn't they didn't mention it maybe once or twice, if that. You know, they they tried to stay away from it because crypto was doing so poorly at the time. And look, it's not it's not at record highs or anything right now, but it's gotten a lot better this last quarter. So, I think they will touch upon crypto a lot more and their new offerings, everything that Robin Hood's doing, they're crushing it, right? Um, and I think if they highlight crypto a bit more, and crypto actually did well this past quarter, which I think it did, right? Um, I think this is going to cause the stock to go up. So, I I'm in Robin Hood already. I bought it in the low mid70s back here, right back in April, I believe, or May. Um, so I'm I'm considering even adding more here in the low hundreds because I think this is gearing up for a move to the mid hundreds. I think it's coming. I don't know about this year, but in 2027, uh, yeah, I think we're gearing up for that. So, Robin Hood looks good. And Nebius is another one here that I think is too beaten up in the short term. Uh, we took a big haircut today on Nebus, guys. $17 per share. And if you're looking at where it was just two days ago, we hit 255. So, this thing is down from 255 to 217. It dropped 15%. Uh, it's just a volatile stock. high beta, high growth, and again with the 10-year going nuts, these types of stocks go everywhere, right? So, I think Nebius is a buy the dip. I already own it. I'm looking to buy even more uh but being patient with it at this point, and it's holding trend. To me, it doesn't look too bad. We're still in this uh wedge that we were talking about. I think this is another just buying opportunity uh for the stock, right? So, let's talk about Chipotle and Starbucks, guys. Look, both of these companies have been struggling. Starbucks arguably more than Chipotle. Starbucks is in a turnaround phase right now. And a lot of shareholders were like, "No, Starbucks, what are you doing? Don't go buy Chipotle. You're in the turnaround phase right now." And the stock got punished when we got the news earlier. Um, the stock went from 94 a share all the way to 87. And this thing went down 7% like that, you know, and this stock in the past couple of months, weeks has been doing very poorly. We hit 115 back in July and again we got to 87. So this stock got into a bare market on the news uh down 25% and we're trading at multimonth lows right now. So let's talk a little bit about this. Starbucks right now, if you guys didn't know, is the second largest restaurant chain when it comes to sales in the United States, right? Annual sales, $ 31 billion, I think, is what they did last year. Um, so they're the second biggest, right? And Chipotle is the third biggest. Not not the third, excuse me, the seventh biggest. Um, Chipotle did about 11 billion annual sales domestically in the United States, right? And by the way, Chipotle stock went up 6% on the day today. So obviously the company that's going to get bought usually goes up because because they're going to pay a premium for the shares. And by the way, Chipotle trades at a 40 45 billion market cap. So clearly the stock that's getting bought will go up. The stock doing the acquisition either stays flat or it goes down if investors don't believe in it. And the reality is investors have a right not to believe or want this acquisition. Again, Chipotle trades at $45 billion give or take. And that's a pretty penny to pay. I don't know if they're going to pay 45, 50, 60 billion, whatever it is. Again, they might have to pay a premium. We'll see if this even goes through, how the deal is structured, but they might arguably overpay. And Starbucks is not in a position right now where um they're crushing it. They're at all-time highs. The business is ripping. It's thriving. It's a turnaround business right now. And yeah, Starbucks is everywhere. People go and every day to Starbucks. That's not the point. The point is it's not what it used to be um 5 10 years ago. And clearly the stock reflects that. I mean, look on the MAX chart. Starbucks is at the same level it was at before the pandemic. I mean, that's a problem, you know. So, they're in a turnaround phase and investors are like, "What are you doing? The last thing we want is an overpriced acquisition right now. Um, they already have $9 billion of debt or n.5 billion on the balance sheet." I was looking at this stuff earlier, guys. So, yeah, it kind of makes sense why the stock's getting hit. And I got so many comments. I made a short video earlier. I got some comments throughout my platforms. I'm selling Starbucks. This is a bad acquisition. blah blah blah. So that's the negative, right? That's the negative. They might overpay. They already have a lot of debt. They're they're in the turnaround phase. Why would they want to add this massive acquisition to their plate, you know? And some of the positives here, the CEO of Starbucks right now, Brian Nichols, he actually used to be the CEO of Chipotle for a couple years. Um, so he kind of knows the ins and outs of Chipotle. He's very familiar with the company. He's been through rough times, good times, rough times, you know. So, that could be interesting. That could make it work, you know what I mean? Um, again, I think it's Brian Nickel or Nicholls, whatever. Yeah, I think it's Brian Nickel. Um, yeah, I mean, he's he's been around the block with with both companies. Uh, but, you know, why go add another company onto your plate when Starbucks, you haven't really fully turned it around yet? That that that seems like you're adding too much onto the plate. and it might make your job harder. I don't know. Just saying. But he does have the experience with Chipotle. That's a plus. Um on top of that, uh they might they might be going for that conglomerate, the be being the next conglomerate restaurant chain. You know, you got Yum Brands, you got uh what's the other one? Restaurant International. Is that what it's called? There's so many out there. so many of these um companies that own um a bunch of these little restaurant not little restaurants but you know what I mean guys right uh the parent companies that own all these different company either way whatever they might be going for that angle and who knows if they'll purchase another company after that so it makes sense from that perspective okay nickel has ran you know Starbucks for a couple years Chipotle six years combine them maybe buy another company in in a couple years and kind of make this giant restaurant conglomerate. Okay, I get that angle, but what price are they going to pay? That's the million-dollar question. So, for me, guys, look, I don't have a a dog in this fight. I don't have skin in the game. I'm not planning on buying either stock, if anything. Maybe Chipotle for a trade. Uh, but this pop could easily fizzle out. We don't know if this is going to happen. We don't have any details fully yet. Um, who knows? this might not happen and if it if it falls through which it could easily um Chipotle stock could give back all these gains and yeah it's it's just another day on Wall Street you know and Starbucks if this doesn't go through the stock's going to come back up but yeah for me I am not touching Starbucks with a 10-ft pole uh but maybe Chipotle for a trade I don't know we'll see um and if we get more details on oh they're going to buy Chipotle in all stock or all c cash or some. I'm sure there's going to be debt involved. Uh but oh, if they buy it at 40 bucks a share, you know, Chipotle is going to go nuts. You know, we're going to see more upside and um that that could be a trade, but we'll see. I'm not in these stocks again, but are you? Let me know. What do you guys think about these the AI stocks, Robin Hood, the market, the 10-year oil? I mean, there's a lot going on in this market, guys. Uh but we'll wrap it up there.
