Investment Rationale

JNJ had a break above the $150 level in early 2020, and ever since it traded in an upward channel. When we look at the performance of JNJ relative to the Health Care Sector we notice that it has underperformed to this sector since 2008. Over the past few weeks, this has changed and JNJ is now outperforming the Health Care Sector, with a breakout higher. With earnings coming up this week, this is a positive signal to consider. The Options Market is implying larger earnings than before at +/- 2.8% versus the +/- 2.2% over the last 8 quarters.
