Entry Zones

Stock Zone RSI Thesis
🟢 NKE $53-$57 30 At oversold line, -30% from high. If turnaround thesis holds at all, this is the zone. Size tiny — knife still falling.
🟢 LOW $245-$255 33 Home improvement duopoly, -12.5% 30D selloff creating opportunity if housing stabilizes.

🟡 DECK $100-$108 37 Hoka brand moat strong. Approaching $100 psychological support.
🟡 CMG $33-$35 36 QSR premium brand at -41% from high. Below $33 = further downside risk.

🔒 COST Hold 54 Membership compounder. No reason to sell.
🔒 TJX Hold 56 Off-price winner near ATH.
🔒 TGT Hold 64 +25.8% 3M run — momentum intact but getting extended.
