The price is below both the 30-day MA (38.88) and the 50-day MA (39.57), reinforcing the downward trend. The 60-day high of 42.37 and low of 36.78 suggest a trading range, with the potential for a bounce off the low. Actionable Trade Alert: - Suggested Entry: $37.00 (near the 60D low) - Stop Loss: $36.50 (below 60D low) - Take Profit Targets: 1. $39.00 (1st target, approx. 8% ROI) 2. $40.50 (2nd target, approx. 9% ROI) 3. $44.00 (3rd target, approx. 18% ROI) The trade plan leverages the potential rebound from the low, with a strong upside target at $44.00.

The price is below both the 30-day MA of $38.89 and the 50-day MA of $39.58, indicating a bearish trend, but the oversold RSI suggests a possible reversal. Actionable Trade Alert: - Suggested Entry: $38.00 - Stop Loss: $36.50 (1.5% below entry) - Take Profit Targets: 1. TP1: $39.00 (2.63% gain) 2. TP2: $40.00 (5.26% gain) 3.

$WTRG is currently trading at $37.6, with an RSI of 32.99 indicating it is oversold, suggesting a potential bullish reversal. The price is below both the 30-day MA (39.2) and the 50-day MA (39.71), indicating a bearish trend, but the low RSI signals a possible entry point for a bounce. Market context shows the 60-day high at $42.37, providing a resistance level, while the 60-day low is at $36.77, establishing a support zone. Actionable Trade Plan: - Suggested Entry: $37.6 - Stop Loss: $36.5 (below the 60D low for risk management) - Take Profit Targets: 1. $39.0 (5% gain) 2. $40.5 (7.5% gain) 3. $44.0 (17% gain) Target 3 provides a 17% ROI, aligning with our strategy for significant upside potential.

$WTRG: Actionable Trade Alert Market Context: $WTRG is currently trading at $37.9, below both the 30-day (MA30: $39.43) and 50-day (MA50: $39.73) moving averages, indicating bearish pressure. The RSI at 35.21 suggests the stock is oversold, potentially signaling a reversal. Directional Bias: The stock is within a range defined by the 60-day high of $42.37 and low of $36.77. Given the current price is closer to the low, a rebound towards the high is plausible, especially with an oversold RSI. Trade Plan: - Suggested Entry: $38.00 - Stop Loss: $36.50 (below the 60D low) - Take Profit Targets: 1. $40.00 (5.26% ROI) 2. $41.00 (7.89% ROI) 3. $44.00 (15.79% ROI) The third target offers a 17%+ ROI potential, aligning with the 60D high.

$WTRG has announced its merger with $AWK, creating the largest water and wastewater operator in the United States. This is a massive transaction, serving over 5 million customers in 17 states and 18 military installations. Essential shareholders are expected to exchange approximately one American Water share for every three Essential shares, representing an implied premium of nearly 10%. The new company is strongly focused on stable growth, dividends increasing between 7% and 9% annually, and a $15 billion infrastructure investment plan. All of this will be achieved without impacting customer rates. From an investor's perspective: a defensive utility, predictable cash flows, a stronger balance sheet, and a perfect profile for those seeking stability and dividends. The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2027, subject to regulatory and shareholder approval.
