Partial long entries today.. 43.80 range holding, for now, looking to see if we can get a curl up 30c or so before today's close. Watching for that small descending triangle intraday, We'll be looking for support levels below hold next week. Some decent support was broken, but it's been reclaimed in the past with fakeouts, so am not concerned.
Looking at a weekly close range to gauge potential fakeout. If a close below 44.24 then lowest close in many years. 2 weeks from ex-div, so expecting a bottom to be hit and then some large buying power and short covering in the coming week-2 weeks. 38+-43(mid) range I fully expect to hold. It's a wide range, but strong. Future announcements concerning the merger or regulatory measures can keep some on edge. Get in before 9/13 for that 84c dividend. 1to1 at these prices puts it higher 50's with PM. Investors hopeful of .78 PM to 1 MO, but details, if any, are far out. Negative JUUL news helping shorters, again, expect Short covering.
