There is a strong buyer consensus (none analyst is on the sell side) whose target price shows a +16% potential accordingly to current value. While net income is expected to grow around 15%, EBITDA should rise of 7%.
Technically, the security is in a negative configuration in the short term as the bearish trend of the 20-day moving average, currently at USD 148, shows. Nevertheless, the stock seems being oversold, near to its USD 143 support in daily data. This level should initiate an acceleration towards the USD 152.4 resistance.
Active investors can benefit from the proximity of the strong support currently tested in order to buy Advance Auto Parts with a good timing. A first goal could be the USD 152.4 pivot point. Investors might place a stop loss order below USD 141 in order to avoid important losses.
