How To Invest In Stocks In Both Bull And Bear Markets
BJ's Restaurants broke out earlier, but is now trading approximately 4% below the prior 38.61 entry from a cup with handle. If a stock you're watching clears a buy point then falls 7% or more below the original entry price, it's considered a failed base. It's best to wait for the stock to form a new consolidation and breakout. Also keep in mind that the latest pattern is a later-stage base, and those involve more risk.
Earnings growth fell last quarter from 44% to 0%. But revenue gains moved higher, from 0% to 2%.
BJ's Restaurants holds the No. 16 rank among its peers in the Retail-Restaurants industry group. Dutch Bros, Texas Roadhouse and Cheesecake Factory are among the top 5 highly rated stocks within the group.
