LEVI -SHORT TERM BEARISH SCENARIOOn Wednesday Levi Strauss & Co. released its 4Q results.
Sales rose 22% to $1.59 billion, also ahead of the $1.55 billion analysts expected and the adjusted earnings came in at 46 cents a share, above the 42-cent consensus estimate.
The company’s 2022 outlook remained intact, as Levi Strauss highlighted strong U.S. sales and ongoing demand in Europe.
Despite the good results, short-term bearish movement is expected into the price channel to the major support of $16.

$LEVI Levis Strauss- Potential Major Trend break
Blow out earnings report resulted in a nice pop afterhours. The stock is
in a zone of huge price history so may find it difficult to break through unless
it gets interest from day traders and some short covering comes into play.
Alert set for break above downtrend and resistance @ $17.00
Upside targets $18.80 - $19.75.

Correcting with respect!Are we ranging for another strong move to the upside? There seems to be a range between the local bottom and the 0.236 (of the local high). After a running flat correction we could enter the triangle correction until the first motive wave, stay tuned!
