BROOKFIELD INFRASTRUCTURE PARTNERS L.P. (BIP.UN.TO)

Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. (BIP.UN.TO) is gaining attention as a potential option for advisors seeking dividend-paying, lower-volatility equities in today’s uncertain market. The utilities sector has recently moved up 12 spots in the last quarter to the favored zone at the 7th position in the SIA Sector Report, suggesting possible rotation toward more defensive, income-oriented areas. In this context, Brookfield Infrastructure has shown improving relative strength, a recent technical breakout, and offers a 4.73% dividend yield. It may be a name to watch for risk-conscious income-focused portfolios.

ARCELORMITTAL SA ADR (MT)

ArcelorMittal (MT) shares have surged nearly 70% year to date, climbing the SIA relative strength rankings and breaking out of a decade-long technical base. Momentum indicators like ADX show increasing trend strength as shares push through key resistance levels. As seed capital for Form Energy since mid-2021, MT is committed to ESG goals by investing in iron-air battery technology still in the conceptual phase that could power its steel mills in the future, similar to Xcel Energy’s partnership with Form Energy highlighted last week as a leading “gro-tility” in long-duration energy storage. This commitment is reflected in the hands-on leadership of Lakshmi Mittal, who regularly visits the mills on Sundays, engaging with workers and experiencing the sights and sounds of the plants firsthand, demonstrating a level of involvement uncommon among billionaires.

CATERPILLAR INC. (CAT)

In today’s Daily Stock Report, we are going to highlight Caterpillar Inc. (CAT). The relative strength position chart for CAT in the SIA S&P 500 Index indicates a build of strength. The shares recently entered the favored zone on July 15 at $404.64 while yesterday’s closing price of the shares was $471.26 representing a 16.5% increase since SIA’s favored rating exemplifying the power of the SIA Algorithm.

DYE & DURHAM LTD. (DND.TO)

In today’s edition of the Daily Stock Report we are going to highlight Dye & Durham Ltd (DND.TO), a Canadian Small Cap Computer Software name which has been in the news of late. Dye & Durham entered the unfavored zone in the SIA S&P/TSX Small Cap Index report earlier this year on January 7, 2025, at a price of $17.31. As of Friday’s close, the shares are at $8.90 which represents an almost 50% drop in price. This reinforces SIA’s methodology to not pursue a “contrarian” mindset as names in the unfavored zone are not exhibiting any relative strength as the sellers are in control and not many market participants are looking at the name.

TESLA INC. (TSLA)

Tesla shares are gaining momentum as Elon Musk positions the company’s Optimus humanoid robot as a potential future centerpiece, possibly surpassing the EV business in value. Technically, TSLA has re-entered the favored zone of the SIA S&P 100 Index Report and currently holds the 24th spot in relative strength after a strong recent move. A breakout from a Point and Figure triangle pattern adds further confirmation, with resistance levels now targeted at $423.16 and $486.08.

LUNDIN GOLD INC. (LUG.TO)

The last time we highlighted Lundin Gold Inc. (LUG.TO) in our Daily Stock Report was on April 14, 2025. Since then, the shares have continued to strengthen further as the closing price is now at $79.54 which represents an additional 62% increase since April 11, 2025, closing price. Currently the shares reside in the #11 spot of the favored zone of the SIA S&P/TSX Composite Index report.

ROBLOX CORP. (RBLX)

Roblox (RBLX) shares surged into mid-2025 on the back of strong Q2 results, reaching record highs near $150 before reversing sharply in late July. The pullback coincided with emerging legal and reputational headwinds, including regulatory scrutiny and negative media coverage. Technical indicators reflect a notable shift in trend, with price action breaking below key levels and volatility increasing. The following analysis examines both candlestick and point and figure chart structures in the context of these developments.

APTIV PLC (APTV)

This week’s SIA data reflects early weekly movements that may indicate developing themes in areas such as automotive, health care, and solar. These shifts are preliminary and remain within the context of transitional activity rather than established leadership. Names like Aptiv PLC are appearing in the data, but such signals should be interpreted as early observations rather than confirmed trends. As always, early signals warrant attention, but confirmation over time remains essential before drawing broader conclusions.

CHARTER COMMUNICATIONS INC. (CHTR)

Charter Communications Inc. (CHTR) continues to suffer from the accelerating shift away from traditional cable, losing 117,000 broadband subscribers in Q2 and plunging 18.5% in a single day post-earnings. With a -35.59% quarterly return versus the S&P 100’s +17.44%, the 53.03% opportunity cost underscores why rule-based SIA practitioners exited early, avoiding the damage. Positioned at the bottom of the SIA S&P 100 Index with a 0 SMAX score, CHTR remains in a downtrend with growing bearish momentum.
