Floor & Decor (FND) has been marked down to roughly $60 after a year-long slide from a $95 high. Fundamentals show a profitable, low-debt retailer with meaningful free-cash-flow, but valuation metrics (PE ~31, P/FCF >100) keep the stock expensive on trailing cash generation.

This trade idea targets a mid-term move that cap…

Coherent (COHR) has run hard after a multibillion Nvidia tie-up and product news, but the core fundamental driver is optical component demand and order flow. The setup favors a pullback entry to ride follow-on orders and supply tightness; valuation is rich and execution risk is real, so size positions conservatively and use a defined stop.
