⚡️Don't have any stocks in mind? We have an idea!⚡️

Well, Exxon (#XOM) looks extremely oversold. The price fell to the trend line, crossed the lower Bollinger line, and Stochastic indicates it was oversold.

📈 However, Exxon is doing quite well. Exxon Mobil projects an additional $2 billion in earnings from its Low Carbon Solutions business by 2030, driven by advances in hydrogen, carbon capture, and lithium technologies.

#Forecast

🔼 We consider buying #XOM on a bounce from the trend line;
🎯 Target: 122.00;
