<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Costco Stock Bullish But Overbought Ahead Of Q1 Earnings&nbsp;</h1>

This positioning generates several bullish signals, including the eight-day simple moving average (SMA) at $990.17, the 20-day SMA at $964.53, the 50-day SMA at $923.13 and the 200-day SMA at $840.83. 
The moving average convergence/divergence (MACD) indicator at 21.98 further reinforces the bullish outlook. However, selling pressure has emerged, coupled with a relative strength index (RSI) of 70.11, which lies in the overbought territory. This combination suggests potential risk of bearish movement despite the current bullish momentum.

Shares of precious metals stocks are trading lower amid a drop in gold prices following US economic data.

MMTec, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MTC#NASDAQ">MTC</a>) shares are trading lower on Thursday after the company announced a 1-for-8 reverse <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/42461716">stock split</a>.
The Details: The reverse stock split, approved by the board of directors on Nov. 21, 2024, will take effect on Dec. 18 at market open. 
It will reduce the authorized number of shares of the company&#8217;s common stock from 5,000,000,000 shares to 625,000,000 shares.
How To Buy MMTec Shares
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for MMTEC (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MTC#NASDAQ">MTC</a>) &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy ‘fractional shares,' which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share. For example, some stock, like Berkshire Hathaway, or Amazon.com, can cost thousands of dollars to own just one share. However, if you only want to invest a fraction of that, brokerages will allow you to do so. 
In the the case of MMTEC (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MTC#NASDAQ">MTC</a>), which is trading at $0.23 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 434.78 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to ‘go short' a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.

Shaquille O'Neal is no <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/10/41305175/nba-legend-shaq-says-you-should-save-75-of-your-paycheck-its-not-about-how-much-you-make-its-abo">stranger to making tough business decisions</a>, but his explanation for selling his 17 Auntie Anne's franchises might be one of his most memorable.&nbsp;
During an appearance on the Earn Your Leisure podcast in 2021, the basketball legend turned entrepreneur didn't sugarcoat his reasoning: "I sold my Auntie Anne's because Black people don't like pretzels that much. So I had to switch it up."&nbsp;
One host jumped in, saying, "We eat the cinnamon ones," the other quickly backed him up with, "Yeah, yeah, yeah."
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>The global games market is projected to generate $272B by the end of the year —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/gameflip"> for $0.55/share, this VC-backed startup with a 7M+ userbase gives investors easy access to this asset market.</a></li>
<li>It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $70 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</a></li>
</ul>
But Shaq wasn't having it. He shot back, "Nobody eats no cinnamon pretzels." The crowd lost it, erupting in laughter.&nbsp;
It's classic Shaq – honest, direct and laced with the wit that makes you stop and listen. While some might be surprised at his reasoning, the move reflects O'Neal's approach to business: evaluate the data, understand the audience and adjust accordingly. "At first, it was a good investment," he admitted. "But the numbers …" And just like that, the pretzel era of Shaq Inc. was over.
Shaq's business track record includes an impressive portfolio of investments, but not every deal hits the mark. Auntie Anne's, a staple in shopping malls across the country, was one of those ventures that didn't align with his vision. The sale wasn't just about the bottom line but about cultural relevance. O'Neal's willingness to be candid about market realities highlights why he's been able to pivot successfully in his career.

This isn't the first time Shaq has made a bold call based on cultural insights. During an interview with journalist Graham Bensinger, he reflected on his decision to pass on Starbucks, which he now considers one of his <a href="https://www.outkick.com/culture/shaq-sold-his-17-auntie-annes-franchises-because-black-people-dont-like-pretzels">biggest business regrets</a>. "Howard Schultz wanted to do business with me," he recalled. "But growing up, I'd never seen a Black person drink coffee. I told him, ‘Black people don't drink coffee, sir.' You should've seen his face." Looking back, Shaq sees the missed opportunity as a valuable lesson. "It was a mistake, but I learned from it," he said.
While Auntie Anne's didn't work out, Shaq has found a winning formula in other food ventures. He's a franchisee of Papa John's, owning nine locations and serving on the company's board of directors. His involvement came after the brand's founder, John Schnatter, stepped down following a racial controversy. "For me, it was a great thing to do," O'Neal explained. "The guy just messed up, but he had to pay for that. Now I'm just gonna make sure it's right."
His commitment to Papa John's goes beyond ownership. In addition to helping improve the brand's image, he's worked to lower customer costs and signed an $11 million endorsement deal with the company. "One thing I would never do is sell my people out," Shaq emphasized. "If [Schnatter] was still involved, I wouldn't have touched it."

O'Neal's decision to walk away from Auntie Anne's shows his ability to read the room – and the spreadsheets. The move wasn't impulsive; it was strategic. He's repeatedly proven that he knows when to stay and when to go, even if it means leaving behind 17 pretzel stands in search of a more promising venture.
With a net worth of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/07/39915962/shaquille-oneal-began-building-his-estimated-500-million-portfolio-by-investing-in-this-tech-titan-w?utm_campaign=partner_feed&amp;utm_source=yahooFinance&amp;utm_medium=partner_feed&amp;utm_content=real_estate">over $500 million</a>, Shaq's business instincts speak for themselves. Whether it's his early investment in Google or his ongoing partnership with Papa John's, he knows where to put his money – and when to take it out.&nbsp;
For O'Neal, business is as much about understanding people as it is about profit. And if nothing else, his Auntie Anne's exit serves as a reminder that even the best ideas sometimes need a second look. Or, as Shaq would say, "You gotta switch it up."
