Virgin Galactic Holdings (NYSE:SPCE) reports May 5th.
The stock is outperforming the overall indices clearly well-outperforming airline stocks as evidenced through the ETF JETS, down over 6% yesterday.
And while you are traveling, you may want to survive by eating a plant-based diet.
Beyond Meat (NASDAQ:BYND) also reports May 5th.
Both BYND and SPCE are two stocks that have our attention.
SPCE is in a strong caution phase.
Resistance is at 20.00 with support at the 200 DMA or 13.60. In between, has been a bit of a chop fest.
A good report or a move over 20.00 would clear the last 2 months of work.
BYND is in a weak recuperation phase. The price action has seen this trade between the two moving averages.
A move over the 200-DMA is a strong sign, whereas a move under 80 would be weak.
We will be watching for strength.
However, should earnings disappoint a move closer to the underlying MAs could also turn out a low risk buy opportunity.
Regardless, both are top choices for swing trades. The rest is up to the reaction to earnings, and how the charts line up regarding risk/reward.
