• Honeywell International (HON) is a member of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, NASDAQ 100, the S&P 100, and the S&P 500 indices.
• All four indices recorded fresh record highs amid rising bearish indicators.
• The Bull Bear Power Indicator for the S&P 500 is in extreme bullish territory at unsustainable levels, suggesting upside exhaustion is forming.

Market Sentiment Analysis

Equity markets extended their record run, once again fueled by AI-related stocks, with NVIDIA leading the way. Investors ignore concentration risks, as the rest of the market is not doing as well. The divergence between the AI-led indices and the Russell 2000, which declined, is another red flag. While most agree that an AI bubble exists, opinions on whether and when it will burst differ. Optimism about earnings seasons, today's anticipated interest rate cut, and a significant trade deal between the US and China have overshadowed bearish catalysts, such as a decline in consumer confidence, a weak labor market, and rising debt 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 after its earnings?

HON reported earnings per share that beat consensus estimates by over 10%, rising to $2.82 from expectations of $2.56. Third-quarter revenues rose 7% to $10.4 billion, with 6% organic growth. I am encouraged by the 22% surge in orders and its increased guidance for organic growth, led by its Aerospace Technologies and Energy and Sustainability Solutions. I see more upside in its defense business and exposure to data centers.

Honeywell International Fundamental Analysis Snapshot

The price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 22.62 makes HON an inexpensive stock. By comparison, the P/E ratio for the S&P 500 is 30.52.

The average analyst price target for HON is $247.59. This suggests good upside potential with low downside risks International Technical Analysis
