Markets opened and traded flat after yesterdays first day of monthly inflows and bounce. Yields pulling back this week and bonds globally catching a temporary bid. Value, financial, energy, international, and commodity areas still stronger. Micro to small caps also showing out performance recently. Still in full earnings season and highly shorted companies continuing to find overwhelming buyers picking up demand and absorbing supply.
Fundamental Analysis
TGT reported an EPS beat and notable sales beat by 20.5%. It has been coming off of back to back notable earnings beats. There is some hint of sales growth to taper off in the near future due to vaccine rollouts and economic re-openings. It is one of the better performing companies in its area ahead of WMT. With sales growth given to taper off after a strong run up the past year the future is a bit uncertain. Along with that they did not provide guidance which may have some institutions/investors taking profits and or re-allocating to additional areas for continued growth.

Should have been larger reviewing the metrics. Keeping in mind still early into the week but catalyst and order flow merited favorable upscaled positioning. Allocation and risk management is key and size is adequate according to those parameters. Will have to work on this when taking trades to the next level.
