Apple shares are at an inflection point, says StockBrockers.com's Jessica Inskip
Apple is underperforming the rest of the "Magnificent 7," but the technicals show it is at an inflection point, said Jessica Inskip, director of investor research at Apple was one of three names Inskip discussed during the " Three Stock Lunch " segment on CNBC's " Power Lunch " Monday. Apple Shares of the tech giant, which are down more than 20% year to date, have the potential to move higher, according to the charts, Inskip said. "There is a very, very strong resistance support zone where we're in right now -- thus the inflection point, which is around 195 to 200," she said. "We're sitting in there." The highs of the range goes to around 260, she noted. "This is an inflection to go higher because we're at the bottom," she added.

"We sell a put to buy the stock. It creates neutrality in the short term, but then bullishness on the long term," she said. "We'll do that while we're at the bottom end. If we're assigned and we're wrong, we'll sell a call." Nasdaq Nasdaq should benefit from the move to 24-hour trading , seven days a week, Inskip said. The around-the-clock trading doesn't mean people staying up late in the United States, but more global access to the markets, she explained. That means the markets will need more liquidity, she said. "The way to truly hedge is utilizing options, which means that's next," Inskip said. NDAQ YTD mountain Nasdaq year to date All that new activity is beneficial to Nasdaq, she explained. "They generate off of a lot of trades. We have more trades if they start listing the options," she said. "We need that in order to hedge properly. So there's more activity." UnitedHealth Investors should be careful with UnitedHealth , Inskip said. UnitedHealth wound up on her radar when the stock landed in the Schwab Trading Activity Index (STAX), which is an index of the firm's most actively traded securities. "UNH came up with this buy the dip mentality," she said. "From a technical perspective, UNH is in a bearish trading cycle. It is finding support based on levels, so far, even before Covid," she added. "If there is some support that's there, I expect some rallying to at least the 240 level." However, she is not a bull and is warning retail traders to watch out. "Just like GME, we're buying something because we think it's low, buying the dip without any real conviction of earnings follow-through and I don't see that," he said. UnitedHealth shares are down more than 39% year to date.

Stock Researcher Is Bullish on Taiwan Semi (TSM) Stock
Asserting that Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSM) "is very much a beneficiary" of the AI Revolution, stock researcher Jessica Inskip told Schwab Network today that she is upbeat on the long-term outlook of TSM stock. However, because Inskip, the Director of Investor Research at says that the stock is hitting a resistance point, she has adopted a conservative options strategy towards the name. Why Inskip Is Bullish on Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSM) With the developed world "in the early revolutionary stages of AI," TSM "is very much a beneficiary of the AI megatrend, Inskip stated. The stock researcher noted that, like Nvidia (NVDA), TSM is developing the "chips that power AI." The demand for such chips is expected to jump beyond $1 trillion by 2030, and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSM) is "positioning itself" for that surge, she said. And by 2027, chips that will boost AI's computing power by 40 times will be ready for "mass production," the stock researcher said. "Constant innovation" will keep the demand for AI chips strong, according to Inskip. Inskip's Options Strategy The stock researcher has sold a 45-day cash-secured put at the money that gives her an obligation to buy the stock at the strike price if it drops below its current level, she explained. The strike price is "very close" to the shares' current level. The premium she obtains is her maximum possible gain, but she has limited her risk if the shares fall, Inskip stated. While we acknowledge the potential of TSM, our conviction lies in the belief that AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns, and doing so within a shorter timeframe. There is an AI stock that went up since the beginning of 2025, while popular AI stocks lost around 25%. If you are looking for an AI stock that is more promising than TSM but that trades at less than 5 times its earnings, check out our report about this .

Listen and subscribe to Stocks In Translation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you find your favorite podcastIn this episode of Stocks in Translation, Director of Investor Research Jessica Inskip joins Markets and Data Editor Jared Blikre and Producer Sydnee Fried to discuss yield curves and the current state of the economy. Inskip breaks down how the Federal Reserve influences the curve and explains how the slope can indicate things like economic growth, stagflation, or even a recession. To hear more of Inskip's thoughts, watch the full interview here. Twice a week, Stocks In Translation cuts through the market mayhem, noisy numbers and hyperbole to give you the information you need to make the right trade for your portfolio. You can find more episodes here, or watch on your favorite streaming service. This article was written by Lauren Pokedoff What could I say the current yield curve says about the economy right now? Oh, that's good. So, the slope of the curve gives you indications. You've got your normal yield curve. So think about it, if I have a shorter term rate, the Fed influences the front end of the curve. Correct. That's the Fed, and they don't control it, they influence. Mhm. That normally is low, if it's lower, the Fed lowers rates, you expect what? What? Growth in the economy. Growth in the No, no pop quizzes, please. Yes, sorry. Okay, you expect growth in the economy. But so the line should be sloping upwards. Okay. Okay. If it's if it's flat, Yeah. that means we might have the growth expectations are kind of stalled. Okay, I stalled out. That's a stagflation environment. Inverted, yes, we don't love. I just sorry. I know. I like the word, not the term. Yes, yes. Um, but then if it's inverted. Now think about the inversion because a lot of times we will say that the yield curve has inverted. We expect a recession. It takes about 13 months before that happens. The Fed inverts the yield curve because they influence the front end. Mhm. We expect growth to slow down, hence why it starts going down. The front end affects your high-yield savings account, very, very short end. And that's you want to pay attention to the Fed if you've got fluid cash. And it's very prudent if you expect them, especially if we get a dot plot that says we're going to lower rates at this time, you might want to lock in the rates before they do that, if you've got the extra cash. Then it's all the way that the government borrows money is very tied to the way that we borrow money. The three to five year periods is tied to your auto loans. Right. There's prime and there's margins attached to that. And then the 10 year. 10 year housing, right? Interest rates. Yeah. There we go. Exactly. Exactly. Sign in to access your portfolio
