1. H&R Block Inc. (HRB)
H&R Block is a leading tax preparation service provider, offering in-person and digital tax solutions to individuals and small businesses.
Technical Analysis and Investment Rationale:
H&R Block (NYSE: HRB) has emerged as a compelling opportunity in our portfolio. Following a strong earnings report in August and a "Strong Buy" rating from Zacks, we identified a favorable risk-reward setup.
Our analysis revealed a falling wedge pattern, a bullish consolidation indicator. We executed our entry on September 13 as HRB broke out of this formation, implementing a disciplined risk management strategy with a stop-loss at the day's low.
The position's rapid move to profitability allowed us to adjust to a breakeven stop, effectively eliminating downside risk while maintaining upside potential. This tactical approach aligns with our fund's commitment to capital preservation and alpha generation.
Given HRB's strong fundamentals and the approaching tax season catalyst, we anticipate continued outperformance in the financial services sector. We will closely monitor this position for potential allocation adjustments as the market evolves.
