AmerisourceBergen (NYSE:ABC):

As a holding company, the AmerisourceBergen Corporation markets pharmaceutical products and health systems on the American market. Since the AmerisourceBergen Corporation does not produce any medicinal products itself, its main tasks consist in the storage and nation-wide distribution of these products. In April of last year, this stock met an early high at approx. $120. After the break of the last point three at $93.60, this stock transitioned into a valid downtrend. The current course low is located at $73.31; the correction zone runs between $80.50 and $92.48. In the last few days, the price came very close to the upper edge of the red box, where it is now forming our DowHow signals. This could definitely be a sign for a renewed trend continuation.

Consumer Goods (VFC):

VF Corporation (NYSE:VFC) is one of the leading global retail companies in the clothing industry. It regularly has its own designers develop new products, which it then manufactures and markets via department stores and specialised trend stores. Among the branded goods produced are, for example, jeans (Wrangler, Lee), lingerie, children's clothing, sporting goods, outdoor clothing (Timberland, Napapijri, The North Face) etc., as well as products for the lines 7 for all Mankind, Ella Moss or splendid. Although the chart for this company was not quite able to withdraw from the current correction, it fared better than several other companies. The price is currently in its last valid correction zone, where it has been forming new DowHow signals over the past couple of days. This makes a trend continuation very probable. However, the price also still has a little more potential for recovery, since the end of the correction box is only at about $70.35. Patience may well pay off here.
