$Wisekey International Holding AG(WKEY)$ Bullish $Ally(ALLY)$ Bullish $Strive(ASST)$ Bullish Iโm focusing on three stocks where price structure, volatility compression, and moving average alignment are converging into actionable inflection zones as liquidity conditions recalibrate into 2026, with fundamentals now reinforcing what the charts are already signalling.

That flatness is being read as exhaustion. That interpretation is wrong. Tops do not form in silence. Tops form with expanding volume, structural failure, and forced liquidation.

$Ralph Lauren(RL)$$Lululemon Athletica(LULU)$ $TJX Companies(TJX)$ Why this matters more than a festive headline. I think the market is underestimating what just happened. Ralph Lauren didnโt win Christmas because of seasonality. It won because demand, culture, and pricing power aligned at the same time, and that combination doesnโt fade quietly. Iโm not reading this as a holiday anecdote. Iโm treating it as a non-seasonal demand signal that surfaced through culture, fundamentals, and price structure all at once. ๐ The demand signal was extreme, and measurable Iโm starting with the data because it removes narrative bias.

Iโm flagging this because leveraged ETFs still catch traders off guard. $Direxion Daily TSLA Bull 2X Shares(TSLL)$ goes ex-dividend today, 23Dec25, at $0.11222 per share. That matters for price mechanics and positioning, not yield. I always treat TSLL as a precision tool. It works best when $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ is trending cleanly, structure is clear, momentum is strong & volatility is directional. I avoid it in choppy tape because decay becomes the silent enemy and sideways regimes slowly bleed the position. The biggest edge for me is flexibility. TSLL trades outside regular hours, so when Tesla reacts to deliveries, CPI, or headlines, I can respond immediately instead of waiting for the options chai
