Too many people are focused solely on the #Midterms --- between now and then the damage that will be done will be catastrophic. We need people fighting TODAY and that means reps like #schumer and #jefferies and others who are not fighting and making a stand need to be go.

US Top News and Analysis | Buy these ‘income darlings’ to boost your portfolio, says Jefferies

Jefferies advises investors to offset recent market volatility—sparked by Middle‑East tensions and shifting macro‑economic expectations—by shifting toward “income darlings,” stocks that combine solid fundamentals with reliable dividend payouts and modest payout ratios. The firm’s screen looks for companies with average dividend yields around 4.3%, unstretched payout ratios below 90% and a track record of no dividend cuts in the past five years. Highlighted picks include Target (TGT), which trades at a 3.5% yield, boasts a 50‑year streak of dividend increases and a projected 8% upside to a $140 price target; CVS Health, offering a 3.47% yield and a $98 target implying roughly 28% upside as its cash flow and earnings improve; and Zions Bancorp, yielding 2.85% with a $70 target suggesting an 11% rise, supported by growth in loans, net interest income and fee revenue. Jefferies argues that these dividend‑focused stocks can act as ballast in a “dicey macroeconomic backdrop,” providing both income and potential capital appreciation.

US Top News and Analysis | This beauty stock has been on fire over the past year. Jefferies sees even more upside

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

Ulta Beauty’s stock is poised for further gains after Jefferers upgraded the company to “buy” from “hold” and lifted its price target to $700 (up from $635), implying roughly a 26.5% upside from the latest close. The firm cited stronger revenue durability, a broader beauty backdrop and renewed makeup engagement, noting that Ulta’s new‑merchandise leadership has accelerated the addition of emerging makeup brands and shifted focus from merely filling gaps to launching trend‑driven products. With makeup accounting for about 38% of sales, analysts expect a makeup‑driven cycle to boost traffic, sales frequency, and margin mix, supporting higher‑quality revenue. The upgrade aligns with a consensus view—most analysts already rate Ulta as a buy—while the overall global beauty market is projected to grow about 5% annually through 2030, reinforcing confidence in Ulta’s differentiated strategy amid rising competition from online retailers.
