Weekly Highlights with a Personal Touch
Hey there, Stock Region readers!
The stock market is buzzing, and we’re here to give you the inside scoop. Whether you're a cruise fanatic, a Chewy subscriber, or someone eyeing real estate and defense, this week’s watchlist is packed with action. Pour yourself a fresh cup of coffee––we’ve got plenty to share!
🚢 Carnival Corporation ($CCL)
Today is a big day for Carnival Corporation––their Q2 2025 earnings are set to release. Analysts are feeling optimistic, expecting a healthy 7.4% revenue increase to $6.21 billion. And can we talk about that EPS estimate? A projected jump to $0.25 from $0.11 last year is more than impressive; it’s proof the company is cruising along, full steam ahead (pun totally intended).
Carnival hasn’t just been coasting, though. Beating earnings for 10 straight quarters is no small feat. With $1.2 billion in free cash flow projected for the year, they’ve positioned themselves as a leader in the travel sector.
Market buzz: Trading volume surged this week, with nearly $948 million swapping hands. Keep an eye out for movements above $29.56 or dips below $24.37—they could signal more action. If you’ve been sitting on the deck waiting for something exciting, this might be your wave.
Personal Take: This one’s bound to sail through choppy markets with smooth horizons ahead. Higher ticket demand and onboard spending point to consumers willing to splurge on experiences. Could Carnival’s comeback story carry us into 2026? It’s likely.
🐾 Chewy Inc. ($CHWY)
Chewy continues to charm investors and pet lovers alike with its reliable growth story. Fiscal Q1 2025 earnings came through again, beating expectations at $0.35 per share. Revenue? A cozy $3.12 billion, which isn’t shabby at all for the pet e-commerce leader.
Did you catch this? Active customers are up for the second quarter in a row, climbing to a whopping 20.76 million. Clearly, America’s pets (and their owners) can’t resist that autoship goodness. To top it off, Chewy’s recent stock offering at $41.95 per share shows there’s strong demand from investors.
Market buzz: After a slight dip, confidence in Chewy is still solid––especially with an IBD Composite Rating of 98/99 (chef’s kiss). Short-term levels to watch are above $42.88 and below $42.40.
Personal Take: Chewy’s like that dependable friend who always shows up. Sure, there are skeptics, but the active customer growth proves this stock still has some fight in it. If you’re a pet person, this one might tug at your leash in more ways than one.
🏘️ KB Home ($KBH)
Homebuilder KB Home posted steady Q2 2025 results, though revenues fell year-over-year to $1.53 billion. Housing deliveries declined 11%, but they’ve increased their average selling price to $488,700. More importantly, they’re prioritizing shareholder value with $200 million in stock buybacks last quarter.
Even amid housing market uncertainty, KB Home projects full-year revenues between $6.3 billion and $6.5 billion. Scaling back on land purchases while holding $1.19 billion in liquidity feels like the right call. It’s clear they’re focused on playing the long game while keeping investors happy.
Market buzz: Watch for movements above $53.33 or dips under $51.58 for signs of volatility near-term.
Personal Take: I’ve got to admit—KB Home is playing it smart. With housing inventory staying tight and demand strong, their strategy to maintain margins and liquidity makes sense. While it may not be flashy, consistency often wins the race.
✈️ Lockheed Martin ($LMT)
Defense giant Lockheed Martin is flexing its global muscles once again. They’ve inked a new partnership with Korea Aerospace Industries to develop rotorcraft, UAVs, and space systems. This builds on a 30-year history of collaboration, with highlights like producing F-16 fighter jets.
Amid rising geopolitical tensions, Lockheed’s position in the defense sector feels even more secure. Investors rewarded the announcement with a 3% stock bump––outpacing the broader market for the session.
Market buzz: Level indicators point to potential upside above $468.50 or downside below $464.01.
Personal Take: Lockheed’s not just a stock—it’s a statement. With strategic alliances and a reputation for delivering cutting-edge tech, their prospects are as solid as their aircraft. For long-term investors, this is a high-flyer built to last.
What a week, right? From Carnival’s sun-drenched future to Chewy’s customer loyalty, KB Home’s steady vision, and Lockheed’s global armor, it’s those strategic moves that keep the wheels turning.
No matter your focus, this week proves one thing—there’s no “one-size-fits-all” in investing. Whether you’re riding the waves of travel, pet passion, housing steadiness, or defense might, each story offers something uniquely compelling.
Until next time, keep an eye on those key levels, stay curious, and most importantly, invest wisely.
Stay sharp,
