(MENAFN- Daily Forex) Long Trade Idea

Enter your long position between $190.71 (the lower band of its horizontal support zone) and $213.40 (the upper band of its horizontal support zone).Market Index Analysis
  • Honeywell International (HON) is a member of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, NASDAQ 100, S&P 100, and S&P 500 indices.
  • All four indices trade near record highs driven by the AI hype, but breakdown indicators continue to accumulate.
  • The Bull Bear Power Indicator for the S&P 500 shows a negative divergence and does not confirm the uptrend.
Market Sentiment Analysis

After Wall Street received its much-anticipated interest rate cut, with a prediction for two more in 2025 but only one in 2026, markets wonder what will happen next. The massive tech-led rally in September, historically one of the worst months for equities, resembles a melt-up, which usually precedes a market correction or crash. The third-quarter earnings season is approaching, and markets should revert to a data-dependent environment for direction, focused on labor market and inflation data International Fundamental Analysis

Honeywell International is a conglomerate with aerospace, building automation, industrial automation, and energy and sustainability solutions (ESS) at its core. Additionally, it operates Sandia National Laboratories and has a global workforce of over 100,000 employees.

So, why am I bullish on HON following its post-earnings sell-off?

I am buying the pending split into three publicly traded companies to unlock shareholder value. HON will also benefit from increased defense spending and from the domestic manufacturing uptick, especially in data centers. I rank HON among the best manufacturing stocks and consider further downside from current levels as an excellent long-term buying opportunity.
Metric Value Verdict
P/E Ratio 23.82 Bullish
P/B Ratio 8.26 Bearish
PEG Ratio 1.81 Bullish
Current Ratio 1.29 Bearish
ROIC-WACC Ratio Positive Bullish

The price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 23.82 makes HON an inexpensive stock. By comparison, the P/E ratio for the S&P 500 is 29.65.

The average analyst price target for HON is $252.97. This suggests good upside potential, with manageable downside risks International Technical Analysis
