Our top 10 things to watch Tuesday, Feb. 10 — Today’s newsletter was written by Jeff Marks . 1. The S & P 500 was headed for a muted open this morning. We’re keeping an eye on chip stocks like Club names Nvidia and Broadcom after Taiwan Semi reported earnings. January sales increased 37% year over year for the company. It’s a good sign of artificial intelligence demand. 2. DuPont shares jumped 2% after posting a better-than-expected fourth quarter. The company beat on net sales, EBITDA, and adjusted earnings per share. Management’s 2026 forecast was above the Street’s expectations, as well. Adjusted EPS at $2.25 to $2.30 vs. the consensus of $2.14. This Club stock has been a horse since spinning off Qnity Electronics , another portfolio name, in November. 3. CVS reported a strong fourth quarter this morning. Adjusted earnings per share came in at $1.09, beating expectations of $0.99. The drugstore chain reiterated its full-year EPS outlook of $7 to $7.20. The stock was down over 2% this morning, however, because the $7.10 midpoint was below the Street’s estimates of $7.17. 4. Club holding Texas Roadhouse was downgraded to hold from buy at Truist on concerns that beef inflation will persist through 2027. Also, in the restaurant space, Wingstop was downgraded to hold at TD Cowen on expectations of a difficult same-store sales setup for 2026. 5. Bernstein raised its price target on Club name Apple to $340 from $325, and kept a buy rating on shares. Analysts pointed to a strong iPhone cycle and argued that rising memory prices shouldn’t be an issue for the tech company in the near term. 6. Coca-Cola stock fell over 3% after the beverage giant missed on the top line, but beat on adjusted earnings per share by 2 cents. Management guided 2026 organic revenue growth to 4% to 5% and EPS growth of 7% to 8%. 7. Raymond James upgraded Take-Two Interactive to a strong buy from outperform. Analysts say the stock’s recent selloff – down 15% since Jan. 29 – is overdone. The weakness, instead, brings a more attractive risk/reward for the stock, given the Grand Theft Auto publisher’s “strong fundamentals.” Still, Raymond James left their price target unchanged at $285. 8. Morgan Stanley loves Tesla ‘s decision to spend more on solar manufacturing. Analysts estimate that Tesla Solar could add $20 billion to $50 billion of equity value to their Tesla Energy valuation, which they think is worth $140 billion 9. Bank of America raised its price target on Caterpillar to $825 from $735. Analysts cited a strong turbine demand for their call. The stock has had a stellar 2026 so far, up roughly 29% year to date. 10. Vistra was upgraded at Jefferies to a buy from a hold, with a price target of $203, up from $191. Analysts like the stock’s risk/reward after a 25% pullback since September. Jefferies says that shares at their current levels aren’t pricing in the company’s future data center contracts.
