08-27-2025: Axalta Coating Systems Ltd (AXTA): Protective Coatings are a Big Business |
Description of Company |
Recent Charts |
Our predictive charts think a major bottom has occurred and the stock should rocket higher. A problem, however, is with the chart that shows a distance between the long and short term moving averages which suggest a false upward breakout to trap traders. This is coupled with only a moderate buy rating in the financials considerations below. Couple that with the fact that by the time this article is released (as we try to streamline Zenith with only marginal improvements) and a "wait and see" is what we suggest. If it back tracks downward and then has another major breakout after bottoming then definitely we think this is a buy.

Management's Discussion: Results of Operations |
The following report shows the mmaximum realistic potential gains or losses trading Zenith's recent active list(s). This starts over at least every quarter. Accuracy is not certified; and we would appreciate being informed of any obvious discrepancies. The idea is to start with roughly $3,000 risk per stock and not to compound winnings or losses by keeping a fixed number of shares per quarter. The following is as of 08/22/2025.
