You can feel it, can’t you?

Something big just broke…

Not the stock market, not the banks… something deeper.

The numbers say everything’s fine… but it doesn’t feel fine, does it?

The cost of living keeps rising. The divide keeps widening. The anger keeps building.

Listen, I’ve spent three decades studying financial systems, and I’ve never seen pressure like this. It’s as if the old order of the economy has cracked and something new is forcing its way through.

Most people can’t see it yet. But they sense it. They feel it in their gut.

I’ve pulled on that thread for the past year, and what I’ve uncovered is bigger than anything I’ve ever reported. And it’s happening much faster than anyone imagines.

I explain everything in my new documentary.

Good investing,

Qualcomm’s Sudden Reversal Signal Could Catch the Bears Offside

Reported by Sam Quirke. Published: 2/27/2026. 

Key Points

• After a brutal 30% slide that erased nearly two years of gains, Qualcomm is showing early signs of stabilization.
• A bullish MACD crossover deep below zero suggests downside momentum may be exhausting itself.
• With fresh analyst upgrades starting to land and price action firming above recent lows, a base is starting to take shape.
• Special Report: [Sponsorship-Ad-6-Format3]

After collapsing nearly 30% between the first week of January and the first week of February, tech giantQualcomm Inc (NASDAQ: QCOM) is now trading near $145. It’s been a rough start to the year for investors, with that selloff effectively dragging the stock back to 2020 levels.

Though the stock was already under pressure, the primary catalyst for the selloff was the company’s weak forward guidance in its first report of the year.

What if you could claim a stake in what’s set to be the biggest IPO ever… starting with just $500?

That disappointment accelerated selling in what has long been a frustrating stock for holders, despite Qualcomm’s consistent ability to top earnings and revenue expectations.

Following the selloff, Qualcomm’s relative strength index (RSI) was pushed toward multi-year lows, sentiment collapsed, and many analysts began throwing in the towel.

For a company operating in such a critical part of the semiconductor ecosystem, the capitulation felt definitive. Yet over the past fortnight, something has shifted that’s making investors question whether the worst of the selling is already behind them. Let’s take a closer look.

A MACD Signal That Matters

In mid-February, Qualcomm’s moving average convergence/divergence indicator (MACD) registered a bullish crossover while still deeply in negative territory. That detail matters: a bullish MACD crossover above the zero line can simply confirm ongoing strength, but a crossover from below zero often suggests downside momentum has reached an extreme and is beginning to unwind.

With bears in control throughout January and early February, every bounce was sold into and momentum remained decisively negative. Now, a string of consecutive green sessions suggests short-term control may be starting to tilt back toward the bulls, particularly when viewed alongside the MACD’s bullish crossover.

The last time Qualcomm printed a similar bullish MACD crossover from deep below zero was last April, after the stock had also fallen roughly 30%. That signal marked the low and was followed by a multi-month rally of about 70%. For investors who like a comeback story, it’s a compelling setup.

Price Action Is Quietly Improving

Importantly, the recent signal is not occurring in isolation—price action is beginning to improve. The bears have been unable to push the stock below the immediate post-earnings low, despite the earlier pessimism from analysts. Instead, the stock has turned decisively northward. This doesn’t mean the downtrend is officially broken, but the relentless pressure has eased.

For a stock that surrendered two years of gains in weeks, stabilization is itself notable. When a deeply oversold name rallies in the wake of bad news rather than falling further, it often indicates the worst-case scenario is already priced in.

Analysts Are Starting to Shift

The technical improvement is being accompanied by a subtle change in tone from Wall Street. Earlier this year many analysts downgraded Qualcomm or trimmed price targets after its weak guidance.

In line with stabilizing price action and bullish technicals, that wave of caution now appears to be softening.

This week, Wells Fargo lifted its rating from Underweight to Equal Weight, while Loop Capital went further, upgrading Qualcomm to a Buy. They argued that key near-term headwinds are beginning to ease and that the company’s diversification strategy strengthens its longer-term outlook.

Both Loop Capital and Wells Fargo set fresh price targets of $185, implying roughly 30% upside from current levels and adding to the sense that Qualcomm could be a serious contender for a comeback rally.

What Needs to Happen Next

For this early reversal to develop into something more durable, Qualcomm needs to consolidate recent gains and begin forming a base around $150.

That level is psychologically important and has been a key battleground before. If the stock can hold above the recent lows and start carving out higher lows, confidence should begin to rebuild. A decisive break below $130, however, would likely invite renewed selling.

This remains a stock with real headwinds: handset demand uncertainty persists, and management still needs to restore credibility around forward growth. But markets often turn before fundamentals visibly improve. The bullish MACD crossover deep below zero suggests downside momentum may have already peaked.

Draganfly’s CEO Says Drones Are Becoming Intelligence Platforms—Not Just Hardware

Reported by Bridget Bennett. Published: 2/19/2026. 

Key Points

• Draganfly is positioning drones as intelligence platforms, using real-world data and AI to move beyond airframes.
• Defense demand and “made-here” procurement trends are accelerating adoption and could tighten supply across North America.
• AFSOC-linked training and FPV work underscores a shift toward recurring services and operational integration, not just unit sales.
• Special Report: [Sponsorship-Ad-6-Format3]

The drone industry’s latest rally has been driven by a familiar mix: geopolitical urgency, fast AI adoption, and an accelerating shift toward automation.

In a recent MarketBeat conversation, CEO Cameron Chell explained why Draganfly Inc. (NASDAQ: DPRO) sees the next chapter for drones as being defined less by airframes and more by the data, intelligence, and operational capabilities layered on top of them.

Have $500? Invest in Elon’s AI Masterplan (Ad)

What if you could claim a stake in what’s set to be the biggest IPO ever… starting with just $500?

Everyone is talking about Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO.Click here to get the details and I’ll show you how to claim your stake…

Draganfly recently traded in the mid-$7 range, and Wall Street remains optimistic about its prospects as a small-cap company, with MarketBeat’s consensus target near $16.75.

From “Drone Makers” to Intelligence Platforms

Asked what’s driving investment across the sector, Chell framed drones as an evolution story—similar to the internet era, when early winners outgrew their original labels. His central point: the “endgame” may not be a hardware category at all.

Chell believes drones are uniquely positioned to become the dominant “real-world” data collectors—capturing everything from imaging and environmental monitoring to specialized sensing that can feed into AI systems. That combination, he argued, could separate a few eventual leaders from the pack: the companies that move beyond manufacturing to become information-and-intelligence businesses.

The Pentagon’s “Drone Dominance” Demand Signal

Defense has emerged as the industry’s most visible catalyst, and Chell pointed to the scale of near-term demand as evidence that adoption is still early—despite the sector’s sharp stock moves.

A major signpost: in early December 2025, the Pentagon announced an initiative to deliver 300,000 small drones over the next several years and to strengthen domestic production capacity—an effort publicly described as “drone dominance.”

The takeaway: even one large program can strain North American supply, and the broader re-arming cycle extends beyond a single budget line. In Chell’s view, the competitive moat isn’t just parts availability—it’s the ability to build, certify, scale, and support mission-critical systems.

Why “Made Here” Is Becoming a Requirement, Not a Preference

Another theme from the interview: drones are being “re-regionalized.” Nations increasingly demand domestic or in-country production for cost, supply-chain security, and sovereignty. Chell said Draganfly already operates manufacturing in both the United States and Canada, and he expects that multi-sovereign model to expand as countries prioritize domestic control.

That push aligns with broader policy trends: restrictions on foreign-made drone technology have intensified, and national-security scrutiny has increased.

Canada’s Defense Push: What Chell Says Is at Stake

Chell highlighted a newly announced Canadian “Defence Industrial Strategy” as another example of global re-militarization and sovereign manufacturing priorities. Some figures mentioned in the interview were management commentary rather than independently confirmed program allocations, but the strategic direction is clear: Canada—like many allies—is moving toward deeper domestic capability and faster procurement cycles.

A Concrete Win: Training + FPV Drones for U.S. Air Force Special Operations

One of the most actionable parts of the conversation focused on Draganfly’s recent selection, alongside partner DelMar Aerospace, to provide Flex FPV drones and training to units within U.S. Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC).

The structure matters: this isn’t presented as a simple hardware shipment but as capability delivery—platform plus instruction—conducted at DelMar’s Camp Pendleton UAS training facility.

Chell said Draganfly’s operational experience and battlefield learnings—particularly from Ukraine—are a key differentiator for training and product iteration. For investors, that expands the addressable opportunity beyond unit sales into services, repeat cohorts, and operational integration.

Beyond Defense: The Commercial Use Cases Are Getting Practical

While defense drives headlines, Chell emphasized momentum in public-safety and industrial markets where ROI is often easier to quantify. He cited examples such as:

• robotic solutions for wind-turbine maintenance,
• drones used in cell-tower restoration and emergency response,
• tools deployed on power lines for monitoring and data collection.

The common thread: drones are replacing slow, risky, and expensive workflows that previously required crews, harnesses, helicopters, or complex logistics.

The Investor Question: Has the Run Already Happened?

Draganfly is a reminder of how quickly sentiment can shift in emerging categories—especially when government budgets and policy tailwinds intersect with AI narratives.

Chell argued the “beginning of the beginning” is still unfolding: major militaries spent decades experimenting with drones, but the first large and structured procurement waves are only now appearing at scale.

How smoothly that unfolds will hinge on execution—manufacturing ramps, reliability, regulatory compliance, and the ability to win repeat business in a crowded field.

Still, the combination of a large U.S. demand signal, nationalized supply-chain trends, and concrete contract wins helps explain why analysts remain constructive on the sector.
