Here&#8217;s a look at the key <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42446804/costco-q1-earnings-preview-membership-fee-increase-in-focus-with-shares-at-all-time-highs">details from the quarter</a>.
Q1 Earnings: Costco reported first-quarter revenue of $62.15 billion, beating the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus estimate</a>&nbsp;of $62.08 billion.

Shares of CVS Health Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVS#NYSE">CVS</a>) are trading lower on Thursday. This move could break important support. A new downtrend may be about to form.
Our team of expert traders and technical analysts has made it our ‘<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/stock-of-the-day">Stock of the Day</a>'.
In the stock market, some price levels are more important than others. These are called ‘support' and ‘resistance' levels.
Read Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/24/12/42450947/bipartisan-lawmakers-aim-to-break-up-health-care-giants-with-new-legislation">Bipartisan Lawmakers Aim To Break Up Health Care Giants With New Legislation</a>
If a market is trending lower, it is because the sellers are overwhelming the buyers. There aren't enough buy orders to fill all of the sell orders.
The sellers are forced to push the price lower and this creates a downtrend. When there is eventually enough demand, the price stops moving down.
This happens at support levels. When a market is trending higher, the opposite dynamics are in play. There aren't enough sell orders to fill all of the buy orders.
The buyers are forced to push the price higher and this creates an uptrend. When there is eventually enough supply, the price stops moving higher.
This occurs at resistance levels.
The term ‘market memory' means that some important support and resistance levels can retain their importance for a long time. It could be weeks, months, or even years.
As you can see on the short-term chart, over the past year the $52.50 level has been important support for CVS. When the shares got there in May and November, a reversal followed.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Short Term Chart</h2>
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="554" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12164115/1st-1024x554.png" alt="" class="wp-image-690362" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12164115/1st-1024x554.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12164115/1st-300x162.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12164115/1st-768x416.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12164115/1st.png 1537w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Now it looks like this important level has broken. The buyers may have left the market and the sellers may need to force the price lower to draw them back in.
This level is important for CVS for a long time.
The 8-year chart of CVS illustrates an example of market memory.
The $52.50 level first became support in May 2019. It was a support level again in March 2020.
And it was support again this past June.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Long Term Chart</h2>
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="549" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12164051/1lt-1024x549.png" alt="" class="wp-image-690360" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12164051/1lt-1024x549.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12164051/1lt-300x161.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12164051/1lt-768x411.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12164051/1lt.png 1525w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
‘Market Memory' is real. Some analysts may have a hard time believing an important price level can be important for so long. But the chart of CVS proves it.
Now that the support at this level has finally been broken, there is a good chance the move lower has just gotten started.

Cryptocurrency exchange and financial technology firm Coinbase Global Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) offers a compelling mechanism to wager on digital assets without dealing with the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-claim-unclaimed-bitcoin">unusual pitfalls</a> of crypto investing. These hazards include discarded hardware, forgotten passwords or even technical gremlins. Still, with Coinbase stock having virtually doubled in value this year, some skepticism may exist regarding its immediate forward viability.
Looking at the charts, Coinbase blitzed higher following the election results. Since then, however, the security has entered a sideways consolidation pattern. It's possible that it could swing higher from here. However, such a bullish development may depend on the underlying crypto ecosystem. With the <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/charts/">total market capitalization</a> of all digital assets above $3.6 trillion, a healthy correction wouldn't be unexpected.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="826" height="475" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12153730/COIN-stock-12122024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-690253" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12153730/COIN-stock-12122024.jpg 826w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12153730/COIN-stock-12122024-300x173.jpg 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12153730/COIN-stock-12122024-768x442.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 826px) 100vw, 826px" /></figure>
Conclusion? It's honestly a guessing game where Coinbase stock may head next. Fortunately, with an options strategy called the long iron condor, the focus is on volatility or price movement rather than the ultimate direction of the security.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Profit From Indecisiveness In COIN Stock</h2>
Paralysis by analysis represents one of the most frustrating dynamics in trading. However, if a trader is confident in a high magnitude of movement (but unclear on the asset's direction), then a long iron condor may represent an ideal solution.
An advanced options strategy, the long iron condor features four legs (or strike prices). Structurally, it helps to think of this trade as the combination of two vertical spreads; specifically, a bear put spread and a bull call spread.
Essentially, the condor features a north endzone and a south endzone. The name of the game is to get the ball across either outer strike prices to receive the full reward. A partial reward materializes when the top or bottom breakeven thresholds are breached.
By logical deduction, the long iron condor trader doesn't care where the target stock moves to, so long as it moves enough. Naturally, the worst outcome for the speculator is a decline of kinesis. Therefore, buyers of long condors anticipate a rise in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/what-implied-volatility-options-trading#:~:text=Implied%20volatility%20measures%20the%20anticipated,risk%20factor%20before%20buying%20options.">implied volatility</a>.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Finding the Right Long Iron Condor To Trade</h2>
Given that the long iron condor rewards heightened volatility, it makes sense for traders to seek "narrow" strike price ranges. That way, there's less distance for the ball to reach either endzone. However, narrow long iron condors typically feature significant positional risk (a large cash outlay) in exchange for the reduced probabilistic risk (likelihood that the trade will be successful). Also, highly probable trades usually feature miniscule payouts.
On the other hand, "wide" long iron condors tempt traders with the biggest payouts and low positional risk. However, the probabilistic risk tends to be so great that such transactions should be viewed extremely carefully, if not skeptically.
Subsequently, finding the right long iron condor involves a balancing act. The ideal condor will feature a reasonable probability that the ball can reach either endzone. This balance is important because the trader is paying a premium to attack both profitability targets. If the trader had a strong directional bias, it would make sense to just pay for one vertical spread — either a bear put or a bull call.
Based on the week-to-week mobility of COIN stock, the 287.50P &#x7C; 295.00P &#x7C;&#x7C; 310.00C &#x7C; 317.50C condor for the options chain expiring Dec. 20, 2024, may make sense. This is how the trade breaks down:
<ul>
<li>Sell the $287.50 put.</li>
<li>Buy the $295 put.</li>
<li>Buy the $310 call.</li>
<li>Sell the $317.50 call.</li>
</ul>
With this setup, there's a reasonable chance — given COIN stock's high mobility — to reach either profitability target. Further, the payout, while not particularly great at 33% at the time of writing, still affords the trader a mechanism to win if COIN marches higher or if an unexpected headwind temporarily derails the bullish narrative.

Edison International Raises Common Stock Dividend From $0.78 To $0.8275/Share

Merger and acquisitions activity peaked in the United States in 2021, but after SPACs got shellacked and the Biden administration took a harsher view of large-scale mergers, deals became fewer and further between.
This trend is expected to reverse in 2025 as the Federal Reserve lowers interest rates and a more M/A-friendly Federal Trade Commission (FTC) enters the fold. Analysts at Goldman Sachs expect many <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/goldman-sachs-sees-more-larger-162800585.html">larger-scale deals</a> to be explored in the next 12 months, and one may already be underway as Mondelez International (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MLDZ#NASDAQ">MLDZ</a>) is again considering purchasing chocolate conglomerate Hershey Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HSY#NYSE">HSY</a>).
Today, we'll explore five more stocks that could be M/A targets in 2025.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How We Made Our Picks</h2>
Fitch Ratings has identified <a href="https://www.fitchratings.com/research/corporate-finance/us-corporate-m-a-could-accelerate-in-2025-credit-implications-mixed-02-12-2024">several sectors</a> with ample dry powder and legroom for acquisitions, such as homebuilding and construction, aerospace, gaming and leisure, healthcare, banking, and (of course) tech. We looked for companies in these industries and narrowed down our selections based on growth potential, brand recognition, financial position, and number of potential suitors. These are primarily mid-size firms with market caps between $5 and $12 billion.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Dutch Bros Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BROS#NYSE">BROS</a>)</h3>
If you're annoyed waiting in long lines at Starbucks or Dunkin&#8217; for your morning coffee, you aren't alone. Even with mobile orders and online promos, drive-thru lines are a constant pressure point for big chains, and as coffee prices continue to rise, customers might consider eschewing the line altogether.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="304" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163047/Bros-1024x304.png" alt="" class="wp-image-690339" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163047/Bros-1024x304.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163047/Bros-300x89.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163047/Bros-768x228.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163047/Bros.png 1302w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Artisan coffee chains like Dutch Bros might be a way for bigger companies to gain a competitive edge without sacrificing quality. BROS is a fast-growing coffee chain with over 900 stores in the United States, mainly in the Western part of the country, that prides itself on quick drive-thru experiences and attentive service. While 900 stores might seem quaint to giants like Starbucks, this is impressive growth from the 135 stores in operation in 2009, and the company also sells its name-brand varieties online. Dutch Bros revenue growth has continued its steady ascent, and gross profits have more than doubled since 2020. BROS is a takeover target thanks to these expanding profits, minimal debt load, strong brand recognition, and potentially untapped markets in the coffee-crazed northeastern United States.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBA#NASDAQ">WBA</a>)</h3>
Walgreens has long been a takeover target, but realistic dealmaking scenarios have failed to materialize, and the stock has been stuck in a multi-year decline. While a public acquisition has eluded WBA, 2025 could be the year the company returns to private markets.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="304" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163047/WBA-1024x304.png" alt="" class="wp-image-690340" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163047/WBA-1024x304.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163047/WBA-300x89.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163047/WBA-768x228.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163047/WBA.png 1302w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
On December 10, news broke that Sycamore Partners was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42421855/walgreens-stock-jumps-on-report-of-potential-private-equity-sale-what-you-need-to-know">exploring an acquisition</a> of Walgreens, who intend to take the company private and potentially split up its divisions. WBA stock has plummeted from a $100 billion market cap in 2015 to just $8.5 billion at the end of 2024, making a private market acquisition much more feasible.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Roku Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROKU#NASDAQ">ROKU</a>)</h3>
Roku's stock chart will forever be distorted by the COVID-19 pandemic and meme stock craze, which saw its price jump from $100 to $500 in less than a year. When rates began rising in early 2022, ROKU was decimated and has traded under $100 per share for the better part of the last two years. But Netflix and Disney+ have shown that streaming services are the new way Americans watch TV, and Roku provides hardware and software to bring these services into living rooms.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="299" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ROKU-1024x299.png" alt="" class="wp-image-690341" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ROKU-1024x299.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ROKU-300x88.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ROKU-768x224.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ROKU.png 1300w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
ROKU made a record $1.5 billion in gross profits in 2023 thanks to more customers ditching cable for streaming services requiring Roku's products, such as smart TVs, streaming sticks, and the all-new Roku Ultra, the company's fastest and highest-quality device. ROKU's market cap is just under $12 billion, which is couch cushion cash for companies like Disney, Netflix, or Apple that could benefit from adding a hardware supplier that can entice potential customers to sign up for their services (and steer them from the competition).
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Zoom Video Communications Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZM#NASDAQ">ZM</a>)</h3>
Another company with a rollercoaster stock chart is Zoom, the video conferencing service that kept people connected during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Zoom found itself in the right place at the right time, and its stock exploded from $76 in January 2020 to nearly $500 by the start of November. But by August 2022, the stock had given up all its COVID gains and settled back under $100.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="300" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ZM-1024x300.png" alt="" class="wp-image-690342" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ZM-1024x300.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ZM-300x88.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ZM-768x225.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ZM.png 1302w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
ZM shares have traded under the $100 mark for most of the last two years, but the previous three months have shown the stock shaking off the cobwebs. In October, ZM's 50-day moving average made a bullish cross over the 200-day MA, and there's optimism that Zoom's infrastructure, brand recognition, and return to positive sales growth will make it a desirable acquisition in 2025. With a $26 billion market cap, Zoom needs a buyer with deep pockets like Google, Microsoft, or Apple, but the company has plenty of positive free cash flow and a sturdy balance sheet.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">SPDR Regional Banking ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KRE#NYSE">KRE</a>)</h3>
Now, no one is actually looking to acquire a banking ETF. However, the small and mid-size bank sector is ripe for consolidation, and the performance of this index shows how much optimism has flooded the industry since Donald Trump's election night victory. In 2023, the number of FDIC-insured commercial banks <a href="https://www.statista.com/statistics/184536/number-of-fdic-insured-us-commercial-bank-institutions/">grew to 4,470</a>, the first expansion in more than two decades (over 8,000 banks were insured in 2000). Many market analysts believe this to be a one-time blip and expect consolidation to resume under new FTC leadership.

The S&amp;P Regional Banking ETF got a massive boost on the Wednesday following the presidential election as a deregulation agenda paves the way for bank mergers and acquisitions. KRE is a relatively small fund with only $5.7 billion in assets under management, but it holds a diverse range of regional banking stocks. Over 140 banks and financial services firms fill the index, ranging from large caps like Truist Financial ($60 billion market cap) to niche local banks like Atlantic Union Bancshares (under $4 billion market cap). Selecting which of the more than 4,000 banks will be acquired is a monumental task; buying this small ETF is a way to take advantage of the overall M/A trend.

5 Merger and Acquisition Targets to Buy Before Trump Takes Over

Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>) reported its fourth-quarter results after Thursday's closing bell. Here's a look at the key <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/09/40741225/broadcom-q3-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-continued-strength-in-ai-solutions-and-vmware-2024-ai-gu">figures from the quarter.&nbsp;</a>
The Details: Broadcom reported quarterly earnings of $1.42 per share, which beat the analyst consensus estimate of $1.38. Quarterly revenue came in at $14.05 billion, which slightly missed the consensus estimate of $14.09 billion and is an increase over sales of $9.295 billion from the same period last year.
The company reported non-GAAP net income of $6.965 billion for the fourth quarter and cash from operations of $5.604 billion for the fourth quarter, less capital expenditures of $122 million, resulting in $5.482 billion of free cash flow. 
&#8220;Broadcom&#8217;s fiscal year 2024 revenue grew 44% year-over-year to a record $51.6 billion, as infrastructure software revenue grew to $21.5 billion, on the successful integration of VMware,&#8221; said Hock Tan, CEO of Broadcom Inc.
&#8220;Semiconductor revenue was a record $30.1 billion driven by AI revenue of $12.2 billion. AI revenue which grew 220 percent year-on-year was driven by our leading AI XPUs and Ethernet networking portfolio,&#8221; Tan added.

$100 Invested In This Stock 10 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Seth Rogen's Houseplant is at it again. The "Freaks and Geeks" and "Pineapple Express" actor and filmmaker's cannabis lifestyle brand launched a THC-infused, flavored <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/cannabis-beverages">sparkling water on Thursday</a>.
Since its U.S. debut in March 2021, Houseplant — co-founded by Rogen, Evan Goldberg and Michael Mohr — has been a leader in destigmatizing cannabis culture with its tasteful and thoughtfully designed lifestyle and home goods. 
Each of Houseplant&#8217;s products, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/23/01/30651350/smoke-weed-with-seth-rogen-make-a-ceramic-ashtray-with-him-spend-the-night-airbnb-is-hosting">including ceramic ashtrays and other cannabis-themed artwork</a>, has a story behind it that&#8217;s been brought to life through thoughtful planning and lots of creativity. The same goes now for its THC-infused beverages.
&#8220;At Houseplant, our approach has always been to create the products we wish existed — and to do so with the highest standards,&#8221; <a href="https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/houseplant-launches-ready-to-drink-thc-infused-sparkling-waters-302329738.html">said</a> Mohr, Houseplant CEO in a press release. &#8220;It has been thrilling to innovate with THC beverages, creating a drink that&#8217;s both accessible in strength and convenient, in a familiar, smoke-free format.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Not Everyone Wants To Smoke</h2>
&#8220;Not every situation is right for smoking, and not everyone wants to smoke,&#8221; said Rogen. &#8220;Houseplant beverages offer an approachable dose that&#8217;s perfect for those trying THC for the first time and for regular consumers like me who will love having a delicious, low-calorie, drinkable option. It&#8217;s sparkling water with THC in it &#8211; everybody loves a Houseplant.&#8221;
Mohr added that the launch was a natural step in Houseplant's evolution. &#8220;We are excited to be a part of this THC renaissance and look forward to bringing more products to market that millions of people are proud to own and consume.&#8221;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tribute To Pineapple Express?</h2>
&#8220;Pineapple Express,&#8221; for those who may have missed it in 2008, is a hilarious buddy stoner action flick written by Seth Rogen who starred in it along with Evan Golberg and James Franco. 
The Food &amp; Wine Guide <a href="https://www.foodandwine.com/seth-rogen-houseplant-thc-infused-sparkling-water-8760145">noted</a> that after taste-testing every sparkling water they could find, the Houseplant threesome (Rogen, Goldberg, Mohr) landed on four sugar-free flavors: pineapple, citrus, black cherry and blackberry.
"It all starts with making something we would love to own or consume ourselves," said Mohr. "Black cherry is a classic flavor we all grew up drinking; citrus is a staple in all our fridges; blackberry is a bit more rare, but we figured out how to put our own spin on it and managed to make it incredibly delicious; and then pineapple — well, there's a little wink in there to Pineapple Express."
