Insights: Bullish Hotels & Resort Stocks

Actionable pullback opportunities within Hotels & Resorts; it's time to check in.

We first began highlighting Group CD-20 Hotels & Resorts, Large/Mid-Cap in our 2/20/19 Compass, noting that the Group displayed bottoming price and RS and that it was a timely opportunity to add exposure. The Group has only improved since and, with this sustained price and RS improvement, we have been waiting for an attractive pullback opportunity in order to take advantage of what we believe is just the beginning of a much larger upside move. We believe that attractive pullback opportunity is now. In today's report we highlight four of our favorite setups within the Group -- add exposure. Stocks highlighted include: Marriott International (MAR), Hilton Worldwide (HLT), Wyndham Hotels & Resorts (WH), and Choice Hotels (CHH).
