The Pentagon announced Monday the latest arms package for Ukraine totaling $725 million, the largest since a $1 billion package in April. The arms package will include the second shipment of antipersonnel mines that President Joe Biden<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities/24/11/41873103/trump-reportedly-urges-russian-president-to-deescalate-war-with-ukraine-heres-how-crude-oil-wti-futures-are-reacting"> authorized.</a>

Last week, the White House asked Congress to provide an additional $24 billion in security assistance which it is seeking to designate as "emergency spending." The Biden administration requested $8 billion for the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative to finance weapons contracts with U.S. defense contractors with the remaining $16 billion to be used for replenishing U.S. weapons stocks.
Major General Patrick Ryder, a Pentagon spokesman, told reporters "We understand the urgent situation in Ukraine and the president's direction and will continue to do everything we can to ensure that Ukraine is getting the aid that it needs."
Why It Matters: Government and military contracting companies, including General Dynamics Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GD#NYSE">GD</a>), may benefit from the latest arms package to Ukraine. Specifically, the Javelin weapon system is produced by the Javelin Joint Venture, a partnership between Lockheed Martin Corp.

US Announces $725 Million Arms Package For Ukraine

The national average price of gas has fallen for the seventh straight week to $3 per gallon, the lowest level since May 2021. The price of gas has fallen slightly, 0.6 cents from last week, and is 23.2 cents<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42262225/asia-gains-across-markets-europe-mixed-oil-rises-on-china-activity-dollar-strengthens-global-markets-today-while-us-slept"> lower than a year ago. </a>
According to data from GasBuddy, more than 100,000 stations now offer gas at $2.99 per gallon or less. The median gas price is $2.93 per gallon with the top 10% of stations averaging $4.16 per gallon and the bottom 10% of stations averaging $2.40 per gallon.&nbsp;

"Millions took to the road for Thanksgiving, and while some regions, like the Great Lakes, saw gas prices rise just in time for travel, most of the nation saw prices hold mostly stable or decline slightly as the national average remains near the lowest level we've seen since 2021," said Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy.&nbsp;
Oil Prices: Oil prices per barrel have held in a tight range in the upper $60s over the past week, as tensions continue between Russia and Ukraine, a tenuous peace deal in the Middle East, and economic slowdown in China, among other factors.&nbsp;
Looking Ahead: OPEC members will likely consider extending the current production cuts for another month. However, there is some uncertainty ahead if President-elect Donald Trump increases sanctions on Iran, and potentially Venezuela, or adds tariffs on Canadian crude.
"While the potential impacts from tariffs are something to watch, they would have no effect until late January, if implemented at all. For this week, all eyes will be on the previously delayed OPEC+ meeting on Thursday. If they begin to restore oil production, oil prices could soften to the mid-$60s [per barrel]," De Haan said.&nbsp;
Oil Investments: Investors looking for exposure to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/42093973/traders-are-flocking-back-to-oil-whats-fueling-the-optimism">oil market</a> could invest in individual oil companies like Exxon Mobil Corp.

(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVX#NYSE">CVX</a>).&nbsp;
Commodity oil ETFs track the price of crude oil using futures contracts and include the United States Oil Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USO#NYSE">USO</a>) which tracks the price of West Texas Intermediate crude oil.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Equity oil ETFs invest in stocks of oil-related companies with one popular example being the Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLE#NYSE">XLE</a>), which holds large-cap U.S. energy companies.

Gas Prices Fall For 7th Straight Week To $3 Per Gallon, Reaching 2021 Levels

Health Canada is set to reduce spending on its <a href="http://benzinga.com/cannabis">cannabis</a> program by CA$20.5 million ($14.6 million) over the next three years. This move is part of the federal government&#8217;s &#8220;Refocusing Government Spending&#8221; initiative aimed at saving CA$15.8 billion over five years.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Canada's Cannabis Program Suffers Largest Spending Cuts</h3>
The planned cuts are the largest within Health Canada&#8217;s contributions to the budgetary goal. Reductions include CA$4.7 million in 2024-2025, CA$7.5 million in 2025-2026 and CA$8.3 million in 2026-2027 and ongoing. Other affected areas are pharmaceutical drugs programs and management and oversight services.
In budget 2023, the government announced measures to scale back spending to pre-pandemic levels, <a href="https://stratcann.com/news/more-than-20-million-in-cuts-to-health-canadas-cannabis-program-over-next-three-years/">according</a> to StratCann. Documents tabled in the House of Commons revealed cuts to various federal programs, including affordable housing and the Department of National Defence. This information emerged in response to a question from NDP MP Peter Julian.

StratCann notes the report identified CA$179,000 in savings from Health Canada&#8217;s cannabis program, stating it would not impact service levels.

However, <a href="https://ottawa.ctvnews.ca/federal-union-warns-government-widening-the-net-to-reduce-spending-1.7103218">according</a> to CTV News Ottawa, the Public Service Alliance of Canada expressed concerns that slashed budgets could potentially impact workforce stability and service delivery.

Furthermore, these federal cuts come at a challenging time for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41599546/canadas-cannabis-market-goes-cold-pot-prices-hit-bottom-why-top-producers-are-losin">Canada&#8217;s legal cannabis industry</a>.

Statistics Canada reported a 2.8% drop from May to June 2024 and an 8.2% year-over-year decrease. Falling flower prices, while competitive against illicit alternatives, have further squeezed profit margins.
Omar Khan, a key figure at High Tide Inc.

He criticized the absence of federal leadership, considering it has left the sector vulnerable.

A Delaware judge has once again struck down a compensation plan for Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk from 2018, news that comes six months after Tesla shareholders approved the pay package for<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39323339/tesla-shareholders-approve-elon-musk-56b-pay-package-other-company-proposals"> a second time.</a>
 What Happened: A <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39537125/elon-musks-tesla-pay-package-saga-continues-latest-developments">2018 pay compensation plan</a> provided several milestones that seemed extremely hard for Musk and Tesla to hit, with high payouts if he could accomplish the improbable.
Musk hit the milestone accomplishments from the 2018 incentive plan which led to options paid out worth around $56 billion, as reported by <a href="https://news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/musk-record-tesla-pay-package-rejected-again-by-delaware-judge">Bloomberg</a>.
Delaware Chancery Court Judge Kathaleen McCormick ruled in January that the pay package would be voided due to Tesla's board being influenced by Musk when they adopted the plan. A lawsuit against the plan was previously brought forth by a Tesla shareholder.
McCormick ruled once again against the pay package Monday, despite shareholders approving the compensation plan again in a vote announced in June. An overwhelming majority of 77% of votes cast were in favor of the pay package for Musk, the company previously revealed.
The judge <a href="https://courts.delaware.gov/Opinions/Download.aspx?id=372420">said </a>the defendants failed to prove "entire fairness" in the case.
"The defendants responded by putting the rescinded compensation plan — the exact same plan that the post-trial opinion deemed a breach of the duty of loyalty — to a stockholder vote for the stated purpose of ‘ratifying' it," McCormick writes.
McCormick denied the motion to revise and said the defendants' argument goes against settled law and there are at least "four fatal flaws" in their argument. The judge said there was evidence created after trial, common-law ratification can't be raised for the first time after the post-trial opinion, a shareholder vote cannot ratify a transaction and misstatements in the shareholder vote proxy statement were all fatal flaws.
"Each of these defects standing alone defeats the motion to revise."
The judge also ruled in favor of the plaintiffs for attorney fees in the amount of $345 million, which was less than the $5.6 billion being asked. The fee can be paid via cash or Tesla stock the ruling said.
The judge's ruling will likely be appealed, which could continue to be an overhang on Tesla stock in the coming months.

Why It's Important: Musk is the world's richest person, worth an estimated $343 billion and up $113 billion in 2024 as reported by <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/billionaires/?sref=TBDibEcD">Bloomberg</a>.
Musk's wealth recently hit an all-time high with Tesla stock soaring and increased valuations for other Musk-related companies gaining after the 2024 election win by his friend Donald Trump.
The pay package is the largest for a U.S. corporate executive and the Tesla shares would be worth over $100 billion now, based on the current share price.
Without the payout, Musk will likely remain the world's richest person, but the news could take a cut out of his wealth.
Wedbush analyst Daniel Ives <a href="https://x.com/DivesTech/status/1863710814651195505">said </a>the pay package being rejected was not a surprise.
"We expect the Musk $56 billion pay package now goes to appeal in Delaware courts and eventually could go the Federal appeals process depending on next steps," Ives tweeted. "This continues to be a soap opera playing out in Delaware."
TSLA Price Action: Tesla stock is down 1.35% to $352.26 in after-hours trading Monday after gaining a little over 3% earlier in the trading session. Tesla stock has traded between $138.80 and $361.92 over the last 52 weeks and is up 43.7% year-to-date in 2024.

This substantial increase in stock price indicates strong investor confidence in the company&#8217;s prospects. While specific catalysts for this surge haven&#8217;t been explicitly identified, it could be attributed to a variety of factors, including <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/financing/24/11/41947919/high-tide-closes-final-tranche-of-15m-debt-plans-retail-growth">positive reports</a>, strategic partnerships, or overall <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/11/41694779/tilray-high-tide-glass-house-how-top-cannabis-companies-deal-with-financial-pressures">market sentiment</a>.

With the move the company is tapping into the global e-commerce market for snacks and confectionery, which is, according to Statista, expected to reach over $113 billion in revenue in 2024, with an anticipated annual growth rate of 14%, resulting in a projected market volume of roughly $218 billion by 2029.

One of the most anticipated vehicle launches of all time happened on Nov. 30, 2023 with Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) delivering its first Cybertruck vehicles to a long waiting list of reservation holders of the highly anticipated<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/11/36032944/cybertruck-delivery-event-elon-musk-highlights-teslas-best-product-says-finally-the"> electric pickup truck.</a>
Here's a look back at the company's unveiling of the truck and how much investors could have made timing their stock purchase.
What Happened: Tesla recently shared a look back at what the company accomplished in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42262279/a-year-after-teslas-first-cybertruck-deliveries-the-truck-has-a-long-way-to-go-to-meet-musks-goals">its first year</a> with the Cybertruck on the market.
"1 year since we launched the truck that ‘they'd never actually make,'" Tesla <a href="https://x.com/cybertruck/status/1862987583141142936?t=1NyPunb3h46OS_CE8vY56Q&amp;s=19">tweeted</a>.
Tesla shared that since the launch, the Cybertruck has had multiple highlights, including achieving a positive gross margin in less than a year and starting deliveries in Canada.
Other highlights shared in the X thread are the Cybertruck driving and parking itself, having Powershare, testing the bulletproof abilities, beating a Porsche 911 while towing a 911 and winning over diesel truck owners.
The Nov. 30, 2023 delivery event was a long time coming for Tesla and fans of the company.
Tesla CEO&nbsp;Elon Musk&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/11/35891943/from-shattered-window-to-production-line-tesla-cybertruck-was-unveiled-four-years-ago-today" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">unveiled</a>&nbsp;the Cybertruck at a public event on Nov. 22, 2019.
Originally set for a 2021 launch, the vehicle suffered several delays and setbacks before its eventual 2023 launch. The film &#8220;Blade Runner&#8221; and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/23/04/32100580/elon-musk-owns-an-iconic-1m-james-bond-movie-car-the-crazy-story-of-couple-who-bought-it-fo" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">the James Bond vehicle from</a> &#8220;The Spy Who Loved Me&#8221; inspired the design.
The vehicle&#8217;s unique design and fans of Tesla and Musk have led to strong demand. A week after the unveiling, Tesla <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/08/33995360/how-many-cybertruck-reservations-are-there-tesla-fans-predict-a-staggering-total-ahead-of-launch" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported 250,000 reservations, </a>via a $100 deposit. In recent comments, Tesla has said there are over one million reservations for the vehicle. Third-party estimates put the estimate closer to two million units reserved.
With the Cybertruck, Tesla added another vehicle class to compete with&nbsp;Ford Motor Company&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>),&nbsp;General Motors Company&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) and Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>).
In the U.S., trucks <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/01/30337806/tesla-had-a-top-10-selling-vehicle-in-the-us-for-2022-what-it-means-and-whats-next-for-2023" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">remain top sellers</a>. In 2022, five of the top 10 bestselling vehicles were pickup trucks, including the top three vehicles.
Pop culture references, like when the vehicle appeared <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/22/10/29491435/tesla-cybertruck-featured-on-the-simpsons-episode-ahead-of-the-evs-2023-release" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">on an episode</a> of &#8220;The Simpsons,&#8221; sparked interest. Podcast host Joe Rogan has also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/23/11/36004998/joe-rogan-tops-spotifys-2023-podcasts-list-once-again-deal-likely-to-expire-in-2024-a-major" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">discussed the vehicle</a> and praised its unique design during several of his interviews.
Tesla has estimated it will sell 250,000 Cybertruck units annually by 2025. Musk has tried to downplay early expectations for the highly anticipated vehicle&#8217;s deliveries.
&#8220;I always try to downplay the start of production because the start of production is always very slow. It increases exponentially, but it&#8217;s always very slow at first. So I wouldn&#8217;t put too much thought into the start of production. It&#8217;s kind of when volume production happens, and that&#8217;s next year,&#8221; Musk&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/01/30595045/are-cybertruck-expectations-too-high-in-2023-musk-says-i-wouldnt-put-too-much-thought-in-start-of-pr" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">said during an earnings call.</a>
Investors and analysts see the Cybertruck as a big catalyst, which could mean more upside for Tesla shares. If you purchased shares when the Cybertruck was first unveiled, you have already been rewarded.

Investing $1,000 in Tesla Stock:&nbsp;A $1,000 investment could have purchased 2.94 shares of TSLA at the opening print on Nov. 22, 2019.
Tesla underwent stock splits of five-for-one in 2020 and three-for-one in 2022. The splits would take the 2.94 shares to 44.1 total Tesla shares.
The $1,000 investment would be worth $15,747.67 today, based on a Tesla price of $357.09 at the time of writing. It would be up 1,474.8% over the last five years.
The same $1,000 invested in the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), which tracks the top 500 U.S. stocks, wouldn&#8217;t have fared as well. The $1,000 investment in the SPY would be worth $1,937.65 today. This represents a return of 93.8% over the last five years, significantly trailing the performance of Tesla over the same period.
Investors who passed up the opportunity to buy Tesla stock when the Cybertruck was first unveiled may have considered buying the stock last November when deliveries took place. An investor could have bought 4.08 Tesla shares with $1,000 based on a price of $245.22 on Nov. 30, 2023.
The $1,000 investment would be worth $1,456.93 today, up 45.7%.
The same $1,000 invested in the SPY on Nov. 30, 2023, would be worth $1,321.95 today, up 32.2%.

Honeywell International Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HON#NASDAQ">HON</a>) shares are trading lower in Monday&#8217;s after-hours session after the company announced a strategic agreement with Bombardier and cut its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/n42276780/honeywell-and-bombardier-sign-landmark-agreement-to-deliver-the-next-generation-of-aviation-techno">near-term 2024 outlook</a>.
What Happened: Honeywell announced the signing of an agreement with jet manufacturer Bombardier to provide advanced technology to current and future Bombardier aircraft.
Under the partnership, the companies will collaborate on the development of Honeywell avionics&nbsp;and work to certify and offer JetWave X for both new production and aftermarket installations. Bombardier will also have access to Honeywell&#8217;s full suite of L-Band satellite communications products and antennas.
Honeywell noted that all legacy pending litigation between the two companies has been resolved. The company estimated that the value of the partnership will be around $17 billion over its lifetime.
&#8220;This is a tremendous opportunity to co-innovate and advance next-generation technologies, including Anthem avionics and engines,&#8221; said Vimal Kapur, chairman and CEO of Honeywell.
&#8220;Growing our long-term collaborative relationship with Bombardier is directly connected to Honeywell&#8217;s focus on compelling megatrends &#8212; automation, the future of aviation, and energy transition.&#8221;&nbsp;

As a result of the strategic agreement, Honeywell expects its near-term financials to be negatively impacted. Fourth-quarter revenue is now expected to be approximately $400 million lower than previous guidance, while earnings are expected to be about 47 cents per share lower than previous guidance.
Honeywell lowered its full-year 2024 revenue guidance from a range of $38.6 billion to $38.8 billion to a new range of $38.2 billion to $38.4 billion, versus <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings">estimates</a> of $38.69 billion. Honeywell also lowered its full-year earnings outlook from a range of $10.15 to $10.25 per share to a new range of $9.68 to $9.78 per share, versus estimates of $10.19 per share.
Honeywell now anticipates a full-year operating cash flow of $5.8 billion to $6.1 billion and a full-year free cash flow of $4.6 billion to $4.9 billion.

Israel launched a series of airstrikes in Lebanon's Nabatieh district Monday, marking the latest episode in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/israel-hamas-war">the region's ongoing war</a>.
What Happened: The most recent strikes were in response to Hezbollah firing rockets near an Israeli watchtower, The Guardian reported. It was the first direct attack since a ceasefire went <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42199447/israel-favors-cease-fire-deal-with-hezbollah-hardliners-stress-need-for-security-zone-inside-lebanon">into effect Wednesday</a>.
The rockets were fired at the occupied Shebaa Farms on Monday night, according to <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2024/dec/02/israel-airstrikes-lebanon-middle-east-crisis-latest-updates">The Guardian</a>. The attack seemed more symbolic than destructive, at least at first. The rockets landed in an open area, killing at least two people, per <a href="https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/12/2/israeli-attacks-kill-two-people-in-lebanon-hezbollah-responds">Al Jazeera</a>.
Hezbollah described its move as an "initial warning defensive response" to Israel's alleged repeat offenses against the ceasefire agreement.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu promised a "strong" response after the alleged ceasefire breach <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/11/42236042/israel-hezbollah-ceasefire-violations-spark-tensions-idf-strikes-southern-lebanon-oil-prices-surge">on the part of Hezbollah</a>, a militant group that has been in conflict with Israel since the early 1980s.

Why It Matters: Concerns are rising that the region could ditch the ceasefire entirely, <a href="https://www.axios.com/2024/12/02/lebanon-israel-hezbollah-us-ceasefire-unravel">Axios</a> reports.
Over the past year, the Israel-Hezbollah conflict has resulted in significant casualties, particularly among Hezbollah fighters. More than 400 Hezbollah members have been killed in Israeli strikes, <a href="https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/hezbollah-death-toll-in-conflict-passes-400-with-latest-israeli-strike/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Times of Israel</a> reported in August.
The clashes have led to civilian deaths and injuries on both sides. The exact numbers vary depending on the sources and specific incidents.
Conflict In Gaza Continues: In Gaza, the death toll has passed 44,000, the Associated Press <a href="https://apnews.com/article/israel-palestinians-hamas-war-lebanon-hezbollah-iran-news-11-20-2024-5da3ce43df8662fe9eeab4ad804bdc0f">reports</a>.
The conflict escalated after the Hamas militant group attacked Israeli <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/10/35136071/israel-under-siege-unprecedented-hamas-attack-sparks-intense-clashes-netanyahu-says-we-are-at-war">civilians Oct. 7</a>, 2023, and continues to hold <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38200834/hamas-says-it-doesnt-have-40-israeli-hostages-for-cease-fire-exchange">many of them hostage</a>.
Cross-border rocket attacks, airstrikes and other military actions against Gaza and neighboring Lebanon followed, heightening concerns of a broader regional war.

Israel, Hezbollah Trade Strikes In Latest Sign Of Crumbling Ceasefire

Shares of Stellantis N.V. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>) traded lower on Monday. In a move that has investors concerned and confused, CEO Carlos Tavares has resigned. This comes as a surprise because two months ago he said that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/24/12/42258470/jeep-marker-stellantis-ceo-carlos-tavares-resigns-amid-falling-us-sales-and-trade-pressures-board-cites-different-views">he would retire in 2026.</a>
As you can see on the chart, shares have dropped over 40% this year. However, a potential bottom may be forming, making it our Stock of the Day.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="571" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/02165357/stla-1024x571.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-673343" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/02165357/stla-1024x571.webp 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/02165357/stla-300x167.webp 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/02165357/stla-768x428.webp 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/02165357/stla.webp 1459w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Markets don't like uncertainty. This means that nervous investors will probably continue to sell and put pressure on the shares. This could continue to force them lower.
Yet, experienced traders can identify key price levels, creating opportunities to profit.

They know that when a stock heads lower and reaches a support level there is a good chance the selloff ends. They also know that stocks tend to rally after they drop to support.
As you can see on the chart, the $11.50 level supported Stellantis in June and July. There is a good chance this level will become support once again.
Support levels can remain intact because of &#8220;seller's remorse.&#8221;
Some traders and investors sold when the shares hit support, but when the stock quickly moved higher, many regretted their decision to sell.
Some decided to buy back their shares—if they could acquire them at the same price they were sold.
So, when the stock eventually reversed and returned to the selling price, they placed buy orders. This large concentration of buy orders caused support to form at the same price that had previously been support.
This has happened at the $11.50 level for STLA.
Stocks often rally after reaching support, and that could be the case here, presenting potential profit opportunities in the coming days. This typically occurs when investors and traders who established the support through buy orders become nervous, knowing the sellers will move to the highest bidder.
They don't want to miss out, so they increase their bid prices. Other nervous buyers see this and do the same. This can result in a snowball effect, forcing the shares into an uptrend.
It may be too soon to take a position in Stellantis, but some savvy traders will be looking for a rally and an opportunity to profit if the stock reaches the important support level and potentially reverses.

As the year draws to a close, investors are looking for one last chance to make a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">winning play in 2024</a>. 
The S&amp;P 500 has delivered a strong 27% surge year-to-date, but some may feel they&#8217;ve missed out on the gains—or even left money on the table with premature moves earlier in the year.
While the broader market often enjoys <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/santa-claus-rally">a Santa Claus rally</a>, one stock in particular stands out for its incredible seasonality: Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>).
If historical patterns hold true, Netflix could be the perfect pick to buy in December and hold through end of January.
Here&#8217;s why.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Netflix's Stellar Seasonality: By The Numbers</h2>
As soon as Christmas songs start filling the air, Netflix has historically outperformed its peers in the S&amp;P 500.
Data from Seasonax shows that the streaming giant has rallied an average of 14.1% from early December through the end of January, with a median return of 11%. 
Over the last 20 years, Netflix has closed this two-month period in the green 80% of the time, or 16 out of 20 years.
Let's break that down further:
<ul>
<li>Average return in positive years: +24.98%</li>
<li>Average loss in negative years: -20.64%</li>
<li>Best performance: +117.42% (Dec. 2012 &#8211; Jan. 2013)</li>
<li>Worst performance: -30.71% (Dec. 2021 &#8211; Jan. 2022)</li>
</ul>
For perspective, Netflix has delivered double-digit returns 12 times during this period, making it a seasonal gem for traders looking to capitalize on recurring market patterns.
Here&#8217;s a snapshot of Netflix&#8217;s performance from early December through late January over the last 20 years:

Instead, it delivered an average return of 34.33%, with a maximum profit of 117.4% during the 2012-2013 cycle.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why Netflix Is the Holiday Stock You Can't Ignore</h2>
Whether it's delivering triple-digit gains in its best years or remaining largely resilient in bearish conditions, the streaming giant has been a reliable performer for traders seeking late-year opportunities.
So, why does Netflix shine so brightly in December and January? Several factors might play a role:
<ul>
<li>Holiday binge-watching: As people gather around TVs during the holidays, Netflix tends to dominate consumer attention.</li>
<li>New-year optimism: Investors often position themselves for strong earnings results, driving demand for high-growth stocks like Netflix.</li>
<li>Seasonal market rally: The broader "Santa Claus rally" typically provides tailwinds for stocks with positive sentiment.</li>
