5 Dow Jones Stocks Coming to Life
U.S. equities are pushing higher on Tuesday as traders await the start of another two-day Federal Reserve policy meeting. A dovish outcome is expected, with the "dot plot" expected to come down to reflect only a single rate hike in 2019 and another single hike in 2020.The bulls are feeling confident, once again pushing the Dow Jones Industrial Average up and over the 26,000 level for the fourth time since prices peaked back in October 2018. Will this rally in Dow Jones stocks have staying power?It looks that way, with global central banks doing all they can to paper over the volatility suffered late last year. With inflation at bay, they don't have much reason to play the tough cop act the market hates so much.InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading Tips * The 10 Best Stocks to Buy for the Bull Market's Anniversary With that in mind, here are five Dow Jones stocks that have lagged the market's rise -- and will be critical in helping push the Dow definitively past the 26,000 threshold. Boeing (BA) Click to EnlargeBoeing (NYSE:BA) shares have stabilized after hitting major turbulence in connection to the two fatal crashes of 787 MAX aircraft because of what looks like a design flaw connected to an anti-stall system. Boeing, under competitive pressure, reportedly buried details of the system's operation to avoid airlines retraining pilots. Shares were recently downgraded from buy to hold by analysts at Argus. But the worst looks to be over for the company, which will have to pay to make it right before getting back to its massive list of backorders.The company will next report results on May 1 before the bell. Analysts are looking for earnings of $4.25 per share on revenues of $25 billion. When the company last reported on Jan. 30, earnings of $5.48 beat estimates by 93 cents on a 14.4% rise in revenues. Caterpillar (CAT) Click to EnlargeCaterpillar (NYSE:CAT) shares are on the move, pushing off of uptrend channel support going back to late October. The bulls are shaking off a double downgrade day from late February when analysts at UBS cut all the way from buy to sell on worries about revenue and margin pressure in 2020. Instead, nascent hope of a manufacturing and construction turnaround are bolstering prices. * 5 of the Best Stocks to Buy Under $10 The company will next report results on April 29 before the bell. Analysts are looking for earnings of $2.86 per share on revenues of $13.5 billion. When the company last reported on Jan. 28, earnings of $2.55 missed estimates by 44 cents on a 11.2% rise in revenues. DowDuPont (DWDP) Click to EnlargeDowDuPont (NYSE:DWDP) shares are coiling up within the confines of a consolidation range going back to October, rising off of its 50-day and 20-day moving averages in what looks like the beginning of an upside breakout. The company announced this week that a broker-dealer has been selected to implement a $3 billion share buyback following the separation of its Dow subsidiary from DowDuPont.The company will next report results on May 2 before the bell. Analysts are looking for earnings of 93 cents per share on revenues of $20 billion. When the company last reported on Jan. 31, earnings of 88 cents per share beat estimates by a penny on a 0.2% rise in revenues. Goldman Sachs (GS) Click to EnlargeShares of Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS) are emerging from a three-month consolidation range, pushing towards its 200-day moving average in what looks like a possible end to a downtrend that traces back to early 2018. Investors are getting excited about reports the company is looking to launch a new credit card product in collaboration with Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) as well as general stabilization in the capital markets, which is resulting in a reopening of the IPO window with Lyft. * 7 Invincible Stocks Leading The Bull Market Higher The company will next report results on April 17 before the bell. Analysts are looking for earnings of $5.7 per share on revenues of $9.3 billion. When the company last reported on Jan. 16, earnings of $6.04 beat estimates by $1.26 on a 0.5% drop in revenues. Home Depot (HD) Click to EnlargeWith the peak home-buying season about to arrive, hopes of a turnaround in home prices (which have been sagging nationally lately) are raising, and thus, home improvement demand is expected to increase. Home Depot (NYSE:HD) shares have been consolidating since October but look ready for another breakout attempt above its 200-day moving average. A couple of analyst downgrades in recent weeks, including from Telsey Advisory Group, hasn't dampened investors' spirits.The company will next report results on May 28 before the bell. Analysts are looking for earnings of $2.20 per share on revenues of $26.5 billion. When the company last reported on Feb. 26, earnings of $2.25 per share beat estimates by 9 cents on a 10.9% rise in revenues.As of this writing, William Roth did not hold a position in any of the aforementioned securities.

4 Large-Cap Stocks Ready to Rebound
U.S. equities are pausing for breath on Tuesday as major technical resistance levels fail to relax their grip on the major indices. The Dow Jones Industrial Average has hit an air pocket around the 26,000 level. The S&P 500 has hit a pocket near 2,800. These are the first major pauses since stocks bottomed on Christmas Eve.A number of factors are in play. Weeks of positive rumors have failed to develop into a hard trade agreement between the United States and China. Profit takers have suddenly emerged. Some of the economic data, particularly out of Europe, has been disconcerting. And President Trump is the target of a new series of investigations out of the House of Representatives, raising political risk.But there is good news as well, suggesting the upswell could soon resume. Retailers have been reporting good results. The job market remains red hot. And the Federal Reserve is maintaining its newly dovish tact.InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading Tips * 3 Consumer Finance Stocks to Buy for the Future of Fintech As a result, a number of large-cap stocks that missed out on the initial surge higher are looking ready to run. Here are four to watch: Caterpillar (CAT)Caterpillar (NYSE:CAT) shares have recently popped up and over their 200-day moving average and are now consolidating the move, building a base of support near its early December high setting up a possible attempt at the early October levels. Such a move would be worth a gain of 15% from here. The move comes despite a recent downgrade by analysts at UBS citing concerns about revenues and margins in 2020.CAT will next report results on April 24 before the bell. Analysts are looking for earnings of $2.86 per share on revenues of $13.3 billion. When the company last reported on January 28, earnings of $2.55 per share missed estimates by 44 cents on an 11.2% rise in revenues. General Electric (GE)As far as large-cap stocks go, not many people have been talking up General Electric (NYSE:GE) recently. But shares are closing in once again on their 200-day moving average, setting up an upside breakout for the first time since late 2016 -- after which shares suffered an epic 80% meltdown. Since bottoming in early Decembers, the bulls have cobbled together a 60%+ rally on glimmers of hope management's turnaround plans are finally getting traction. * Why NOW Is the Time to Buy Gene Therapy Stocks The company will next report results on April 18 before the bell. Analysts are looking for earnings of 13 cents per share on revenues of $28.11 billion. When the company last reported on January 31, earnings of 17 cents per share missed estimates by five cents on a 5.3% rise in revenues. Walmart (WMT)Walmart (NYSE:WMT) shares are in the midst of a long sideways consolidation range going back eight months, but should be good at the very least for a rally to the November highs -- which would be worth a gain of more than 7% from here. The level is also associated with the early 2018 highs, so I would become a seller of this large-cap stock near those levels.The company will next report results on May 16 before the bell. Analysts are looking for earnings of $1.02 per share on revenues of $124.4 billion. When the company last reported on February 19, earnings of $1.41 per share beat estimates by eight cents on a 1.9% rise in revenues. Walt Disney (DIS)Shares of Disney (NYSE:DIS) have been trading within a range going back to July, which in turn caps a range going all the way back to the summer of 2015. Investors haven't had a lot to be excited about since the relaunch of the Star Wars franchise and the consolidation (and great success) of creative universes like Marvel. But new things are coming, from the launch of Star Wars Galaxy's Edge theme parks to an upcoming streaming service. * 7 Chinese Stocks to Buy for the 2019 Rebound The company will next report results on May 7 after the close. Analysts are looking for earnings of $1.60 per share on revenues of $14.33 billion. When the company last reported on February 5, earnings of $1.84 beat estimates by 27 cents on a 0.3% decline in revenues.As of this writing, William Roth did not hold a position in any of the aforementioned securities.
