Software Group Surges After Earnings

Trade of the Day Wake-Up Watchlist

Good morning Wake-up Watchlisters! While you're sipping coffee you'll see stock futures dipped again on Wednesday, continuing a downward trend on Wall Street after significant losses on Tuesday, with both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 declining over 1%. Progress in US debt negotiations was limited, raising concerns about a potential default in the world's largest economy. Stocks are currently facing multiple challenges, including apprehension regarding the US debt ceiling, China's economic recovery, and worries about persistent inflation that may lead to prolonged higher interest rates.

With the markets down, it's crucial to focus on value stocks that have a chance to go up and withstand headwinds. Right now our Head Fundamental Tactician Karim Rahemtulla is pounding the table on "The Last Great Value Stock." It's currently trading at under $2, and it recently got a huge upgrade from Jefferies analyst Chloe Lemarie to over 20% the current price. To top it off, its gains are already 100% above where they were last September.
