With or and not using a nice buying and selling yr, most of us are grateful to be wishing 2020 goodbye and welcoming 2021. That stated, let’s take a look at a number of high inventory trades to ring within the new buying and selling yr on Monday Jan. 4.

Let’s begin with the most important inventory of all of them: Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL).
With its market capitalization of $2.25 trillion, Apple will probably all the time be an “all eyes on me” inventory. Regardless of this, shares had been fairly quiet over the previous few months. Coming into December, I received bullish on this one and though it took some time to ship, Apple actually paid off nicely.InvestorPlace – Inventory Market Information, Inventory Recommendation & Buying and selling Ideas
After hitting new all-time highs this week, shares have given us a “promote the information” response, which isn’t too stunning.
Now engaged on its third-straight each day decline, we now have a pleasant reset right down to the 10-day shifting common. For lively merchants, that’s a possibility. If assist holds, we are able to search for a rotation again up the $138 resistance space. Above that, and the mid-$140s might be in play, with the 123.6% extension coming into play at $146.25.

I actually don’t need to see Apple lose the $130 mark. Beneath $128, and uptrend assist (blue line) places the October excessive in play close to $125, adopted by a attainable take a look at of the 50-day and 100-day shifting averages.
Prime Inventory Trades for Monday No. 2: SPDR Gold Belief ETF (GLD)

Gold has been an fascinating play after the SPDR Gold Belief ETF (NYSEARCA:GLD) ripped laborious off its take a look at of the 50-week and 10-month shifting averages.
Because of this, the GLD has rallied in 4 of the final 5 weeks, nevertheless it’s had a number of false begins in that span. Now hitting its highest degree since early November, bulls need to know if the yellow metallic may have a bit extra upside.
I need to see a stronger rotation, ideally one which takes the GLD over the 21-week shifting common and this pesky VWAP measure. Above that can put the November excessive in play up at $183.53. Over that, and the all-time excessive close to $194.50 is technically attainable, adopted by $200.
I want to attend for the rotation as a result of these present measures — the 21-week shifting common and VWAP — have been resistance. If that continues, we may moderately see a dip down towards the $168 to $170 degree.
Maybe will probably be a buyable dip, however we’ll have to attend and see.
Prime Inventory Trades for Monday No. 3: Moderna (MRNA)

What a painful fall from grace we’ve seen with Moderna (NASDAQ:MRNA). Now down 40% from the all-time excessive on Dec. 1, Moderna has fallen for 3 straight weeks and in 12 of the previous 16 buying and selling periods.
Ouch. However we’re coming into some potential assist.
Moderna is buying and selling down into the 50-day shifting common and filling the final of its main remaining gaps. Admittedly, it did this two days in the past, as Moderna now spends the final buying and selling day of the yr probing this week’s low and threatening to fall even additional.
I need to see a failed breakdown right here — referred to by some within the buying and selling group as a “look beneath and fail” — the place the inventory briefly takes out assist and the current low, earlier than reversing again to the upside.
If it’s a real breakdown, Moderna might be heading down towards $90 and the 100-day shifting common. If it’s false breakdown, I need to see a transfer again up by means of the $115 space, adopted by a take a look at of the 161.8% extension close to $120.50, then this week’s excessive of $122.88.

Above this week’s excessive and the 10-day shifting common, and MRNA inventory may get again to its bullish methods of robust rallies.
Prime Trades for Monday No. 4: Cummins (CMI)

Final however actually not least on our remaining high inventory trades checklist of 2020 is Cummins (NYSE:CMI). Seldom mentioned as a buying and selling automobile, this identify retains itching to maneuver larger.
The ten-week shifting common had been assist for months, however has wavered in December. That was no concern for longer-term bulls, because the 21-week shifting common stepped in as assist.
Final week, CMI inventory gave us a two-times weekly-up rotation (clearing the excessive from the final two weeks) and closed robust on the week. It promptly fell flat on Monday and Tuesday although, earlier than recovering nearly all of these losses because the week attracts to a detailed.
Within the first few weeks of 2021 (and ideally, the primary few days), I need to see Cummins rotate over this week’s excessive at $228.68, opening the door to $238, then the all-time excessive close to $245.
