We first profiled Veralto (VLTO) back in April 2024\u00a0as the stock was advancing and breaking out of a bullish pattern \u2014 one of the first breakouts it experienced since going public in September 2023. That helped kick-start a great run, which\u00a0abruptly\u00a0ended in October after a bad reaction to earnings. The stock then fell steadily through April, finally bottoming when the market pivoted. Along the way, VLTO constructed a substantial potential bullish inverse head-and-shoulders pattern. VLTO reported earnings again Monday, and the initial reaction was strong enough for the stock to finish above the breakout zone. If that can persist, the upside target of $124 would be live. Again, we don’t have much in the way of history for VLTO, given that it’s only been a public company for less than two years, but it has shown the ability to trend\u00a0and capitalize on bullish patterns\u00a0over this span. Here is a zoomed-out view of the weekly chart, highlighting the biggest breakouts from 2024. Now, after regrouping from its consistent downturn, it’s clear the current bullish pattern\u00a0is the largest one the stock has built to date. Reaching the $124 target\u00a0would also put the stock above its prior high point from last year. Often, stocks can reveal their technical character\u00a0by how well they respond to breakouts.\u00a0Said\u00a0breakouts worked last year for VLTO, and this will be a good test as to whether they can work again going forward. Given the consistent decline since last October, VLTO\u00a0has visibly underperformed the XLI Industrials ETF as well. Even though the stock has rallied since April, it has continued to display relative weakness versus its sector, as is clear on this chart. With so many areas of the market \u2014 including many industrial stocks \u2014 now very extended and trading well beyond their previous highs, if VLTO can continue its breakout, it could garner some additional attention.\u00a0Eventually, that could encourage\u00a0rotation out of the high-flyers\u00a0and into areas that are just starting to break out, like VLTO. Rotation can happen from sector to sector, of course,\u00a0but also within sectors. While we don’t recommend bottom-fishing, we\u00a0do\u00a0recommend rotating into technically sound patterns\u00a0when previous breakouts in other areas have run their course. The bottom line is that VLTO has the chance to leverage a large bullish pattern once more, as it proved it could do last year. If it can repeat that process and extend this breakout attempt, the stock could be an attractive place to be on both an absolute and relative basis. DISCLOSURES: None.
