Bearish Sentiment

How do you feel about HRL?

$HRL Love watching Wall Street hyperventilate over 90-day noise while ignoring a 130+ year-old American staple. Over 40 brands sitting at #1 or #2 in their categories... from SPAM and Skippy to Planters and Jennie-O... stocked in practically every pantry in the country and sold in 80+ nations worldwide. Guidance resets are where real value entries are born, not avoided. You rarely get a premier staple handed to you at multiple-year valuation troughs with washed-out sentiment. Desk memo: HRL officially upgraded from "Accumulate" to "Back Up the Truck." Loading the wagon down here.

$HRL So blue. The balance sheet is pure azul. Shorts attacking high-yield, low-debt, cash flow aristocrats. Is it because they're not from Maaaaaars. Well doc, here's the score. Take it lower and I'll buy some more.

$HRL Trimmed this one into the summer push above $26, and this technical pullback just delivered the exact reload entry I was looking for. Price closed today at $23.78, right above the 200-day SMA ($23.45) with the 100-day right below at $23.25. Momentum indicators are oversold across the board (Slow Stochastics down at ~11.5, RSI cooled to 38). IMO, even with the recovery off earlier generational lows, the consumer staples complex remains historically oversold. As broader sector rotation gathers steam, the macro mean reversion back to reality is just getting started. Grabbed the Jan 2028 LEAPs today to capture the recovery with plenty of duration on our side. Looking to add some common as well. Stay tuned! Also bullish $GIS $CPB $CAG $KHC

$HRL I am looking at where a good entry point would be for this stock. Although it looks cheap the dividend coverage is in question at this point and the stock has not fallen to similar price to book levels of peers in industry. I feel like this has more to fall...although I do see upside potential...I am willing to miss an opportunity on this one. I am thinking under 14 dollars per share would be the idea entry point because of the current macro conditions.
