Stocks Reporter FXStreet

NASDAQ:TTCF has continued to see positive action to start 2021 as the stock recovers from a Kerrisdale short report that came out in November of 2020. That report caused shares to drop below $15 heading into December but on Tuesday, Tattooed Chef closed the trading session up 6.27% at $25.44. The recent surge has brought the stock well above its 50-day and 200-day moving averages and technical analysis fans are noting the recovery is forming a nice classic cup and handle pattern which could translate to increased momentum in the near future.

Tattooed Chef has been capitalizing on the recent COVID-19 quarantine as the popularity of prepared meals and meal kit services has exploded. With many people continuing to work from their homes and the restaurant industry either closed or not widely available, companies like Tattooed Chef and Blue Apron (NYSE:APRN) have taken advantage. Tattooed Chef has recently unveiled new vegan-friendly meals and desserts to accommodate the growing number of people on plant-based diets. Perhaps surprisingly, Tattooed Chef is looking to manufacture its own line of plant-based meat alternatives and not use popular brands like Impossible Foods or Beyond Meat (NASDAQ:BYND).

Tattooed Chef stock forecast

Prepared meals and food services is a tricky business to be in and it could be a while until Tattooed Chef sees profitability. On its recent investor call, the figure of $1 billion in revenue by the year 2026 was floated around, but the company will need to continue to add variety to its meal offerings and products if it wants to stay competitive.

EUR/USD drops to daily lows near 1.1630

EUR/USD now loses some traction and slips back to the area of daily lows around 1.1630 on the back of a mild bounce in the US Dollar. Fresh US data, including the September PCE inflation numbers and the latest read on December consumer sentiment, didn’t really move the needle, so the pair is still on course to finish the week with a respectable gain.

GBP/USD trims gains, recedes toward 1.3320

GBP/USD is struggling to keep its daily advance, coming under fresh pressure and retreating to the 1.3320 zone following a mild bullish attempt in the Greenback. Even though US consumer sentiment surprised to the upside, the US Dollar isn’t getting much love, as traders are far more interested in what the Fed will say next week.

Gold makes a U-turn, back to $4,200

Gold is now losing the grip and receding to the key $4,200 region per troy ounce following some signs of life in the Greenback and a marked bounce in US Treasury yields across the board. The positive outlook for the precious metal, however, remains underpinned by steady bets for extra easing by the Fed.
