Disney (DIS) Follows My Anticipated Post-Earnings Price Path

On the morning of Tuesday, November 12, 2024, I posted the following Heads-Up to MPTrader members concerning my DIS (Disney) analysis ahead of earnings:
DIS (Disney) reports earnings on Thursday morning. Technically, DIS approaches Earnings in strong near-term technical condition that argues for a positive reaction to earnings. As long as any forthcoming weakness is contained above 94.80, DIS points higher to 105.10/40, and if taken out, then to 113-115... Last is 100.25...
Fast-forward to Thursday and Friday of last week, we see that DIS' reaction to earnings followed my anticipated explosive upside price path. In response to stronger-than-expected earnings and guidance, on Thursday morning, DIS rocketed from Wednesday's 4 PM ET close at 102.72 to Friday's high at 115.19, an impressive two-day gain of 12%, and a gain of 15% from the time I posted my Earnings Alert for MPTrader members.
What's next for DIS, pullback, or additional immediate strength?
Elsewhere this coming week, what impact might Wednesday's (11/20/.24) NVDA earnings report have on the tech sector and the broad market indices?
Will the "Trump Election Rally" have legs into year-end?
How will the Fed affect year-end investor decisions?

On September 20, 2024, fellow MPTrader member Bloom asked Mike Paulenoff to look at his chart setup in Upstart Holdings (UPST). This is what they discussed in Mike's post to our Discussion Room in its entirety:UPST (Upstart Holdings)... It is NO coincidence that when the Fed initiated its rate HIKE cycle in March 2022, it coincided with the steep, contractionary, prolonged bear phase in cloud-based AI lender UPST.
Each Earnings Season (one is in progress as we speak), I analyze my technical setups on individual stocks to see if they provide enough evidence to issue a "highly confident" directional call to MPtrader members. In other words, what is my chart work telling me about the likelihood of a bullish or bearish investor reaction to Earnings?Suppose I apply the same approach to Tuesday's presidential election.
Last Monday afternoon (October 21), Mike alerted MPTrader members to a Goldman Sachs upgrade of optical products retailer Warby Parker (WRBY) to Buy from Neutral. Goldman attached an 18.00 target price to the stock. At the time of Mike's post to members, WRBY was trading at 17.55 in reaction to the GS upgrade, up 6% from the prior close, and just 2.5% from Goldman's 12-month target price.
On the afternoon of March 13, 2024, I posted the following heads-up to MPTrader members about important price action in WPM (Wheaton Precious Metals), my go-to ("favorite") name for Silver Mining within the larger Precious Metals Mining Complex:From a silver-gold perspective, let's notice that WPM strength is pushing up against its near-term resistance line in the vicinity of 45.80.
Over one month ago, on Monday morning, 9/09/24, I posted the following NVDA update for our members:My near-term pattern work makes a compelling argument that the corrective downleg from the 8/16 high at 131 is nearing downside exhaustion and completion in and around 100 (Friday's low was 100.95). That said, unless and until NVDA climbs above 106.30 to 108.
