Good morning, traders!
What a week it has been. We've seen some incredible moves, and today's watchlist is packed with companies that are making serious waves. From a shipping giant delivering knockout earnings to a chipmaker's jaw-dropping rally, there's a lot to break down.
Let's get right into the four stocks on my radar for Friday, September 19, 2025.
1. FedEx ($FDX) - Delivering the Goods
FedEx just stepped up to the plate and knocked it out of the park with their latest earnings report. They announced adjusted earnings of $3.83 per share, comfortably beating the $3.59 analysts were hoping for. It’s not just the earnings; their revenue of $22.24 billion also surpassed expectations.
What really catches my eye is their cost-cutting plan. They’re trimming a billion dollars in costs, which is already improving their operating margins. That’s a sign of a company getting lean and mean. Plus, the plan to spin off their freight segment by next June is a potential game-changer. Separating that business could unlock some serious value for shareholders. It’s a bold move, and I love to see it.
Levels I'm watching:
Upside: A break above $229.55 could signal more strength.
Downside: A slip below $227.72 might indicate a pullback.
2. Intel ($INTC) - The Comeback Kid?
Wow. Just… wow. Did anyone see that coming? Intel’s stock surged nearly 30% in a single day. This wasn't just a good day; it was a historic rally, the kind traders talk about for years. The catalyst? A massive partnership with Nvidia, which is investing $5 billion and teaming up to build next-gen AI systems.
This is a monumental shift. For a long time, Intel felt like it was falling behind in the AI race. This partnership, combined with a 10% stake from the U.S. government, catapults them right back into the center of the action. It feels like we could be witnessing the start of a major turnaround story for this legacy tech giant. I’m genuinely excited to see if they can maintain this momentum.
Levels I'm watching:
Upside: Keep an eye on $32.45 for a potential continuation of this rally.
Downside: A fall below $29.74 could see some profit-taking.
3. Lennar ($LEN) - Building on Solid Ground
Even with interest rates causing jitters, the housing market is proving to be incredibly resilient, and Lennar is a perfect example. This homebuilder has been consistently delivering strong results, thanks to a smart focus on more affordable homes and excellent cost management.
Lennar isn’t just building houses; they are building a solid business that can weather economic storms. Their strong land portfolio and ability to adapt to what buyers want make them a standout in the real estate sector. While others worry about the housing market, Lennar just keeps chugging along. It’s a testament to a well-run company.
Levels I'm watching:
Upside: A push above $129.97 could show continued strength.
Downside: Watch for a drop below $128.00 for signs of weakness.
4. Apple ($AAPL) - The Unshakeable Leader
And then there’s Apple. Predictably, the new iPhone models are generating a ton of buzz, and you can bet that will translate into monster sales heading into the holiday season. But the real story for me is the relentless growth of their services division. Apple Music, iCloud, Apple Pay—these are the engines creating a river of recurring revenue.
Apple's brand is more than just a logo; it's a fortress. Their ecosystem keeps customers locked in and loyal. While other companies chase trends, Apple sets them. It remains a titan of the market for a reason, and it’s a stock that you simply can't ignore.
Levels I'm watching:
Upside: A move past $239.69 could signal a new leg up.
Downside: A dip below $234.07 might present a buying opportunity for long-term believers.
That’s all for this morning’s watchlist. Trade smart, stay disciplined, and have a fantastic Friday.
