20-Year Pro Trader Reveals His "MoneyLine"
Ditch your indicators and use the "MoneyLine". A simple line tells you when to buy and sell without the guesswork. It’s a line on a chart that’s helped Nic Chahine win 83% of his options buys. Here's how he does it.
- KeyBanc analyst Steve Barger lowered the price target on Federal Signal Corp (NYSE:FSS) to $48 (an upside of 37.5%) from $55 and maintained an Overweight rating on the shares.
- The analyst mentions the shares declined following the company’s Q4 results and 2022 guidance. He believes the decline was driven by the EPS guide of $1.76-$2.00 versus a consensus of $2.14.
- Barger estimates the guide implies a mid-teen percent incremental margin despite a fairly robust revenue outlook, driven by supply chain and labor challenges in the first half of 2022.
- While these dynamics are not unique to Federal Signal, the lower conversion is disappointing relative to its record backlog, states Barger.
