Tier Analysis
Near Overbought / Extended (RSI 62+): HD (RSI 67.5, +6.9% vs SMA20) is leading the home-improvement rebound — +13.3% 30D is a sharp recovery but -21% from 52wk high still. CROX (RSI 68) near ATH, extended. TJX (RSI 64.7) and TGT (RSI 62.6) both have golden cross + strong-up trends and are approaching new highs — but RSI warns against chasing here. ANF (RSI 62.7, +23.8% 30D) is the momentum name — but -33% from 52wk high and death cross make it a bounce, not a breakout. XRT (sector ETF, RSI 62.8) confirms broad retail recovery is underway.
Mid-Range / Healthy (RSI 45-62): WMT/COST are basing after 30D pullbacks (-9%/-8%) but quality compounder status intact. LOW (RSI 56) is recovering from -23.6% from 52wk high. MCD/YUM consolidating in mid-RSI; YUM only -6.9% from 52wk high. DECK (RSI 53.8, golden cross, +16.5% 30D) holding in strong-up trend. SBUX (RSI 54, golden cross) is the quality recovery candidate here.
Oversold / Broken: LULU (RSI 35.7, -6.6% vs SMA20, -54% from 52wk high) continues to collapse. SHOP (RSI 51.8, -37.9% from 52wk high, -11.4% 3M) looks stable on RSI but the 3M chart and -17.9% vs SMA200 say no entry.
Entry Zones
| Stock | Price | RSI | 30D% | Setup |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WMT | $121.03 | 47.4 | -9.23% | Quality compounder -10.5% from 52wk high, 30D weakness = accumulate window; golden cross intact |
| COST | $986.68 | 48.1 | -8.34% | Same thesis — 8% 30D dip, golden cross, basing at SMA20; -10% from high |
| SBUX | $101.68 | 54.0 | -4.62% | Golden cross + strong-up; 30D dip is the entry setup; -6.6% from 52wk high |
| LOW | $224.02 | 56.0 | +2.75% | Home improvement recovery play; not oversold but -23.6% from high with RSI normalizing |
Action Matrix
| Action | Stocks | Why |

| ⚠️ AVOID | TJX, TGT, ANF, HD, CROX | RSI 62-68 range, extended 30D runs — don't chase overbought momentum |
| 🔒 HOLD | XRT, DECK, SBUX, WMT | ETF + strong-up names; compounders with dips |
| 🔍 WATCH | WMT, COST | Quality compounders with 30D pullback = accumulate on further weakness |
| 🔍 WATCH | CMG, MCD, YUM, LOW, NKE | Recovering but extended or still -20%+ from highs; wait for setup |
| ❌ DON'T BUY | LULU, SHOP | Death cross / structural breakdown; no floor |
