Autoliv Posts Strong Sales, Joins United States Cellular, Netflix, Intuitive Surgical And Other Big Stocks Moving Higher On Friday

Peloton Interactive Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PTON#NASDAQ">PTON</a>) stock just hit a major technical milestone — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/golden-cross">the Golden Cross</a>.
While the stock has been down 10.40% year-to-date, it&#8217;s up 10.49% in the past month and this bullish crossover signals the potential for more upward momentum.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">A Golden Cross Workout For PTON Stock</h1>
The Golden Cross occurs when a stock's 50-day moving average crosses above its 200-day moving average, and for Peloton, that's exactly what just happened. 
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent101524&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="628" height="455" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/15113332/Screenshot-2024-10-15-at-5.04.41-PM.png" alt="" class="wp-image-596484" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/15113332/Screenshot-2024-10-15-at-5.04.41-PM.png 628w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/15113332/Screenshot-2024-10-15-at-5.04.41-PM-300x217.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px" /></a></figure>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent101524&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">Chart created using Benzinga Pro</a>
At a current price of $5.40, Peloton&#8217;s share price is trading above its key exponential moving averages — five-, 20-, and 50-day — indicating strong buying pressure. The eight-day simple moving average of $4.79 and the 50-day SMA of $4.27 both flash bullish signals.
The Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD) of 0.15 also supports the bullish case for Peloton, although its Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 66.53 suggests the stock is nearing overbought territory. 
Meanwhile, Bollinger Bands ($4.46 to $4.96) indicate further potential upside.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Pedaling Into Profitability?</h1>
Although Peloton has shifted its focus from hardware to software, the connected fitness company is still riding through a rough patch. 
While software brings in higher margins, membership numbers are declining, and revenue was flat in the fiscal fourth quarter. 
With <a href="https://investor.onepeloton.com/news-releases/news-release-details/peloton-announces-successful-completion-135-billion-holistic">debt refinancing</a> offering some breathing room, there's speculation about a potential <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/05/07/private-equity-firms-circle-peloton-for-potential-buyout.html">buyout</a>. But this isn't the same high-growth stock it once was.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">The Road Ahead: A Short-Term Play?</h1>
Despite its Golden Cross and bullish signals, Peloton is far from a sure bet. 
With heavy debt, a shrinking user base, and a niche market, this could be just a short-term sprint. Caution is warranted for the long haul.

Peloton's Golden Cross: A Short-Term Sprint Or Long-Term Ride?

Peloton And Truemed Partners To Let Customers Use Pre-Tax Health Saving Account/Flexible Spending To Purchase Peloton Products

The world&#39;s largest retailer, company, and employer, Walmart Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/wmt#NYSE">WMT</a>), continues to defy gravity as its stock keeps floating higher, rising 54% year-to-date (YTD). Even after the 3 for 1 stock split on Feb. 26, 2024, shares climbed an additional 52%. The company demonstrates the power of scale as the nation&#39;s largest importer of goods. Walmart is also making headway in China as it gains market share against its incumbent retail leaders. While firing on all cylinders, Walmart continues to grow, indicating more upside.
Walmart operates in the retail/wholesale sector, competing with retailers like Target Co. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tgt#NYSE">TGT</a>), Costco Wholesale Co. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cost#NASDAQ">COST</a>) and Amazon.com Inc.
<h2>Defying Gravity As the U.S. Dollar Spikes </h2>
In a high interest rate environment, the U.S. dollar tends to stay strong, which hurts companies selling goods and services overseas, as reflected in their earnings reports as FX or currency headwinds. Falling interest rates tend to weaken the dollar, enabling other currencies to have more purchasing power for U.S. goods and services. However, since the&nbsp;Fed&#39;s 50 bps&nbsp;interest rate cut, the U.S. dollar index has recovered from a low of $99.866 to surge up to $102.223.
As the nation&#39;s largest importer of goods, Walmart is one of the major companies that has benefited from a strong U.S. dollar. For Walmart, a rising dollar counts as a currency tailwind. Its buying power grows, enabling it to buy more goods overseas for less money (in U.S. dollars). The jump in the U.S. dollar index has pushed Walmart shares back up near its all-time high. The spike in the U.S. dollar is a net positive for Walmart&#39;s gross margins.
<h2>Challenging the Incumbents in China </h2>
Walmart grew sales in China by 17.7% YoY in its second quarter of 2024. Its Sam&#39;s Club warehouse business saw membership income rise by 26% YoY. Nearly 50% of Walmart&#39;s sales in China come from its e-commerce and digital sales channels. While Walmart is an American company, it&#39;s been successful in locally sourced goods. Its success has been so solid that it&#39;s doubling down focus on its China operations as indicated by dumping its investment in JD.com Inc., selling its 144.5 million share stake for around $3.7 billion on Aug. 21, 2024, which it&#39;s held since 2016. It sold shares for an average of $24.95, a little over a month before JD.com shares nearly doubled in anticipation of China&#39;s stimulus package.
<h2>Taking a Page From Amazon Prime Membership Services </h2>
Taking a page out of Amazon Prime membership services, Walmart has been growing its Walmart+ membership program. For $12.95 per month or $98 per year, Walmart+ members get free shipping with no minimum orders (like Prime), which includes free grocery delivery. Members get free Paramount Global (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/para#NASDAQ">PARA</a>) Paramount+ streaming services with ads and up to 10 cents per gallon discount on gas at Walmart, Sam&#39;s Club, Murphy&#39;s, and Exxon Mobil Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/xom#NYSE">XOM</a>).
Walmart+ members get early access to promotions like Black Friday deals, travel benefits, cash-back rewards, and member price discounts on groceries and prescriptions. Members can now get dining benefits at Burger King, owned by Restaurant Brands International Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/qsr#NYSE">QSR</a>), like 25% off digital orders and a free Whopper every quarter with any purchase. It also has additional discounts and promotions with companies from Peloton Interactive Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/pton#NASDAQ">PTON</a>) to NOOM and a 30% discount on home projects at Angi Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/angi#NASDAQ">ANGI</a>).
<h2>Walmart Grew Comp Sales 4.2% in Its Second-Quarter of 2024</h2>
In its Q2 2024 earnings report, Walmart reported earnings of 67 cents per share, beating consensus analyst estimates by 2 cents. Revenues rose 4.7% YoY to $169.3 billion versus $168.56 billion consensus estimates. Walmart&#39;s U.S. comp sales rose an impressive 4.2% YoY. Global advertising grew 26% YoY, including 30% growth for Walmart Connect. Consolidated gross margins rose 43 bps. Walmart+ membership income grew 23% YoY, and Walmart+ memberships rose by double-digits.
Its e-commerce sales rose 22% YoY, driven by store-fulfilled pickup and delivery. Global inventories fell 2% YoY and 2.9% for U.S. Walmart inventory with health in-stock levels. Market shares grew in general merchandise, while transaction counts and unit volume rose across all markets. Grocery sales are strong, and there is no evidence of consumer weakness.
<h2>Walmart Raises Full-Year Guidance&nbsp; </h2>
The company expects Q3 2024 EPS between 51 and 52 cents versus 55 cents consensus estimates. Revenues are expected between $166.03 billion and $167.05 billion versus $167.05 billion. Full-year 2024 EPS was raised to $2.35 to $2.43, up from $2.23 to $2.37, versus $2.44 consensus estimates. Full-year 2024 revenue is expected to be between $672.43 billion and $678.91 billion versus the consensus estimates of $676.53 billion.
Walmart CEO Doug McMillan commented, &quot;Our e-commerce progress creates more optionality for our customers and fuels the growth of our newer businesses. Globally, membership income grew 23%. Walmart Plus memberships were up double-digits. And Sam&#39;s Club U.S. achieved a record-high member count. Globally, advertising grew 26%, including 30% growth for Walmart Connect in the U.S. Advertising sales driven by marketplace sellers were up nearly 50%.&quot;
<h2>WMT Stock Forms an Ascending Triangle Pattern </h2>
An ascending triangle pattern is comprised of a flat-top upper trendline resistance conversing with an ascending lower trendline meeting at the apex point. A breakout forms when the stock rises through the upper trendline, and a breakdown forms if the stock collapses through the lower trendline.
<img alt="Walmart WMT stock chart" class="aligncenter" src="https://www.marketbeat.com/logos/articles/med_20241006193318_charta-wmt.jpg" style="height:750px; width:915px" />
WMT gapped to $72.78 on its strong earning report and rose to a flat top resistance at $81.53. The ascending lower trendline formed at $77.89 and has continued to increase due to higher lows on pullbacks. The daily anchored VWAP support is at $78.06.The daily RSI has been choppy sideways at the 63-band. Fibonacci (Fib) pullback support levels are at $79.12, $74.75, $71.29, and $68.57.
Walmart&#39;s average consensus price target is $81.62, and its highest analyst price target sits at $98.00. It has 29 analysts&#39; Buy ratings and one Hold rating. The stock trades at 33.17x forward earnings.
Actionable Options Strategies: Bullish investors can consider using cash-secured puts to buy WMT at the fib pullback support levels for entry and write covered calls to execute a wheel strategy for income in addition to the 1.03% annual dividend yield.

Peloton Interactive's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PTON#NYSE">PTON</a>) short percent of float has fallen 4.98% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 69.48 million shares sold short, which is 22.12% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 7.21 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall.
