The stock is up 93.61% over the past year, 19.48% over the past month.
Let&#8217;s look at what the charts indicate for Dell stock and how the stock currently maps against Wall Street estimates.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Dell Technical Setup Ahead Of Q3 Earnings&nbsp;</h2>
Dell stock is showcasing a strong bullish trend, with its share price at $144.16 comfortably above the five-day, 20-day and 50-day exponential moving averages. 
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent112624&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="628" height="490" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/26084135/Screenshot-2024-11-26-at-6.02.20-PM.png" alt="" class="wp-image-665421" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/26084135/Screenshot-2024-11-26-at-6.02.20-PM.png 628w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/26084135/Screenshot-2024-11-26-at-6.02.20-PM-300x234.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px" /></a></figure>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent112624&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">Chart created using Benzinga Pro</a>
This upward momentum is reinforced by the eight-day simple moving average (SMA) of $137.40, the 20-day SMA at $134.40 and the 50-day SMA at $126.41, all pointing to continued bullish strength. 
Additionally, the stock remains well above its 200-day SMA of $122.23, underscoring long-term upward momentum.
However, while the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) at 4.36 confirms the bullish trend, and the RSI of 66.17 indicates strong buying momentum, the RSI&#8217;s proximity to overbought territory suggests a risk of bearish consolidation. 
Slight selling pressure also hints at potential near-term volatility. While the trend remains firmly bullish, investors should monitor for signs of cooling off as the stock approaches overbought levels.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Analysts See 7% Upside</h2>
Ratings &amp; Consensus Estimates: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/DELL/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The consensus analyst rating</a> on Dell stock stands at a Buy currently with a price target of $121.73. Recent analyst ratings from Evercore ISI Group, Wells Fargo and Morgan Stanley suggest an average price target of $154.67 for Dell stock implying a 7% upside.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">New CEO</h3>
Mongeau, who has over 25 years&#8217; experience as a senior executive, has most recently served as the CEO of North America&#8217;s e-commerce provider for residential and commercial furniture ESolutions Furniture, formerly Bestar-Bush. He previously held the role of president for Weston Foods as well as president of Mars Petcare North America.
Mongeau joined Canopy as an observer in early 2023 and as a board member in Feb. 2024.
The new appointment comes simultaneously with the company's influence extending in the U.S. via Canopy USA, LLC.
The new U.S.-domiciled holding company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/22/10/29418334/this-is-how-its-done-why-is-canopys-us-consolidation-plan-blueprint-for-other-canad">first introduced</a> in 2022, represents Canopy Growth's strategy for capturing the U.S. cannabis market. The business strategy, which included acquisitions of Wana Brands and Jetty, as well as holding a minority stake in TerrAscend Corp. (TSX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSND#TSX">TSND</a>) (OTCQX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSNDF#OTCQX">TSNDF</a>), also includes the acquisition of Acreage Holdings, Inc.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What's Next</h3>
Mongeau will continue serving as a member of the board in his new role as CEO.
To support an efficient transition, Klein will continue in his role as CEO and a director on the board until the effective date of Mongeau&#8217;s appointment as CEO.
On Jan. 6, 2025, Klein will step down as a member of the board and will shift into a special advisor role until Aug. 31, 2025.
&#8220;I am honored to lead Canopy Growth into this exciting next chapter, and I am confident that our vision, dedication to our consumers, and the commitment of our team members will continue to position us for long-term success and value creation,&#8221; Mongeau said.

Xiaomi Corp. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XIACF#OTC">XIACF</a>) is set to launch its own mobile processor for future smartphones, aiming to lessen its dependency on foreign suppliers like Qualcomm Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>) and MediaTek Inc. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MDTKF#OTC">MDTKF</a>). 
What Happened: This strategic move aligns with Beijing&#8217;s push for local firms to minimize reliance on foreign technology. Xiaomi&#8217;s initiative comes amid a broader trend of tech giants investing in semiconductor development, a critical area in the ongoing tech race with the United States, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-26/xiaomi-readies-own-mobile-chip-pressuring-mediatek-and-qualcomm">Bloomberg</a> on Tuesday, the chip&#8217;s mass production is slated for 2025.
Xiaomi&#8217;s chipmaking efforts could potentially challenge its current manufacturing partner, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) especially as the latter faces increasing pressure from U.S. authorities regarding its dealings with Chinese clients.

In addition to mobile processors, Xiaomi&#8217;s investment in research and development is projected to rise to 30 billion yuan in 2025, focusing on artificial intelligence and operating system enhancements. Chairman and CEO&nbsp;Lei Jun&nbsp;announced these plans during a recent company event, emphasizing the importance of core technologies, Bloomberg reported.
Why It Matters: Previously, Xiaomi launched its first in-house chip &#8220;Surge S1,&#8221; a mid-range system-on-chip (SoC) in 2017 for its Mi 5C smartphone. However, the adoption was limited due to competition from Qualcomm and MediaTek.
A reported attempt to develop the &#8220;Surge S2&#8221; chip was halted due to production delays and technical hurdles in 2020, as <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2020/03/18/xiaomis-surge-chip-development-reportedly-abandoned-shifting-focus-to-low-power-bl-rf-chips/">per</a> Gizmochina.
The development of Xiaomi&#8217;s in-house chips is a significant step in China&#8217;s broader strategy to become self-reliant in critical technology sectors. This move is part of a larger trend where <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42153854/apples-future-ventures-huaweis-new-chip-and-googles-antitrust-woes-this-week-in-appleverse">Chinese tech companies are increasingly investing in semiconductor technology</a> to reduce dependence on foreign suppliers. Recently, in a move to challenge the dominance of Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>), Huawei introduced its latest flagship smartphone, the Mate 70, featuring the HarmonyOS Next. This new operating system has been developed entirely in-house, marking a significant step for Huawei in the mobile OS market.

Xiaomi Set To Challenge Qualcomm, MediaTek As It Ventures Into Chipmaking Once Again

Millennials are having fewer children than their parents did. While that might <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/07/39674955/millennials-slated-to-be-the-richest-generation-in-history-but-they-are-very-ill-prepared-how-wi">work for their personal budgets,</a> experts warn it could drag the economy down for decades.
James Pomeroy, a global economist at HSBC, paints a grim picture. &#8220;What you&#8217;re talking about is these birth rates dropping to very, very low levels, which over the course of time has huge impacts on the economy,&#8221; he told Business Insider. The U.S. birthrate has fallen dramatically – <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/vsrr/vsrr028.pdf">just 11.1 births per 1,000 people</a> in 2022, a 53% drop from 1960. And it's still dropping, around 2% each year.
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>Can you guess how many retire with a $5,000,000 nest egg? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/5mil-nest-egg-adv">The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>
<li>Many are using this retirement income calculator to check if they&#8217;re on pace —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-do-i-calculate-my-retirement-income-adv"> here&#8217;s a breakdown on how on what&#8217;s behind this formula.</a></li>
</ul>
Why do fewer kids mean trouble? Lower birthrates mean fewer workers in the economy. That has a ripple effect. Todd Buchholz, a former White House economist, explains the challenges. &#8220;You find it more difficult to find somebody to cut your hair, do your nails, work on, set up the X-ray machines at the hospital,&#8221; he said. &#8220;The sheer decrease in the number of people … becomes a problem.&#8221;
Social Security is another big issue. By 2029, all baby boomers will be 65 or older, putting massive pressure on Medicare and Social Security. Buchholz says the system isn't ready. &#8220;We will have a great deal of trouble … figuring out how to pay the retirements. The promised retirement payments for senior citizens … are going to go in vast deficits.&#8221;
See Also: Inspired by Uber and Airbnb &#8211; Deloitte's fastest-growing software company is transforming 7 billion smartphones into income-generating assets &#8211; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">with $1,000 you can invest at just $0.26/share!</a>
According to Buchholz, in the 1930s, there were 20 workers for every retiree. If trends continue, Buchholz says the ratio could drop to two workers per retiree. &#8220;That is simply not sustainable,&#8221; he warns.
The cost of living is a major factor for millennials. From housing to education, everything is more expensive. Some millennials are opting out of parenthood entirely. Many are part of the DINK (dual income, no kids) lifestyle, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/11/41700720/better-off-redfin-survey-reveals-69-of-millennial-and-gen-z-homeowners-see-wealth-surge-compared-to">choosing to spend their money</a> on vacations, hobbies and luxuries instead of raising children.
Pomeroy says cultural attitudes also play a role. &#8220;I think it&#8217;s a net negative to have fewer children when the choice is between having a child and investing in a new Sony PlayStation,&#8221; he said.
Buchholz agrees, adding that society needs a mindset shift. He suggests reframing the narrative around children. &#8220;People who have children feel that they live more than once,&#8221; he said, highlighting the fulfillment that family can bring.
So what's next? Fixing this problem won't be easy. Government policies like housing reforms or financial incentives could help. But experts say it'll take a long time to see results. America faces a future with fewer kids, fewer workers and tough economic challenges ahead.

Eli Lilly And Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>) shares are trading higher Tuesday after the Biden-Harris Administration proposed a new rule to expand coverage of anti-obesity medications for Americans with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/wiim/24/11/42186510/novo-nordisk-and-eli-lilly-shares-are-trading-higher-after-the-biden-harris-administration-proposed">Medicare and Medicaid</a>.
What Happened: The government has proposed a new rule to expand access to medications for obesity. In a statement released Monday, the Biden-Harris Administration said Medicare coverage would reduce out-of-pocket costs for these prescription drugs by as much as 95% for some enrollees. Approximately 4 million Medicaid enrollees would also gain access to these medications.
&#8220;The President is proud of the fact that the Inflation Reduction Act allows Medicare to negotiate down the price of drugs, a tool that will help Medicare lower the cost of some of the most expensive medications in the program.&nbsp; That power to negotiate drug prices is critical because Americans pay two to three times more than people in other countries for their prescription drugs,&#8221; the White House said in a statement.
The move is part of the Biden-Harris Administration's&nbsp;national strategy on Hunger, Nutrition and Health&nbsp;focused on ending hunger and reducing diet-related diseases such as obesity.&nbsp;
The anti-obesity drug market has expanded in recent years with FDA approval for a new class of drugs like&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/42039286/eli-lillys-zepbound-mounjaro-shows-cardiovascular-benefits-in-patients-with-obesity-related-heart-failure">Eli Lilly's Zepbound</a>, which can cost close to $1,000 per month for those paying out-of-pocket. 
One of the main parts of the Biden-Harris Administration&#8217;s strategy involves recognizing the opportunity within Medicare and Medicaid to support access to nutritious foods, obesity counseling and other nutrition-related services.&nbsp;
&#8220;Obesity is a multi-faceted disease and we need to work on all levels from prevention to treatment to address this persistent challenge,&#8221; the White House said.
Eli Lilly&#8217;s Zepbound generated $1.26 billion in sales for the company in its most recent quarter. Eli Lilly said Mounjaro and Zepbound sales in&nbsp;the third quarter&nbsp;were negatively impacted by inventory decreases in the wholesaler channel.&nbsp;

Tilray Introduces New Indica Strain With 'Potent THC And A Unique Terpene Profile'

Binance founder and former CEO Changpeng Zhao on Tuesday voiced concerns about the current <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/top-meme-coins">state of meme coins</a>, calling their proliferation &#8220;a little weird.&#8221;
What Happened: In a tweet, Zhao clarified he isn't against memes but urged the crypto community to focus on building meaningful blockchain applications.
"Let's build real applications using blockchain," he <a href="https://x.com/cz_binance/status/1861306581758976434">wrote</a>.
Zhao's remarks come amid growing scrutiny of platforms like Pump.fun, which have simplified the process of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42171439/solana-meme-coin-platform-pump-fun-faces-backlash-over-scandalous-livestreams-but-polymarket-traders-arent-convinced-theyll-go-dark">creating and launching meme coins</a>.
These platforms allow anyone to mint tokens in minutes without requiring identity verification, making them a hotbed for scams and exploitation. 
While designed to attract attention through features like live-streamed token launches, these tools have reportedly spiraled into disturbing displays of violence, fraud, and even animal abuse.
With little to no accountability, such platforms have created fertile ground for exploitation, leaving unsuspecting retail investors at the mercy of bad actors.
A recent report by CoinWire shed further light on the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42169183/dont-get-fooled-by-the-success-of-dogecoin-shiba-inu-76-of-x-twitter-influencers-promote-dead-meme-coins-study-reveals"> risks associated with meme coins</a>.
Analyzing over 1,500 meme coins promoted by 377 influencers on X (formerly Twitter), the study found that 76% of these tokens eventually become &#8220;dead,&#8221; meaning they lose 90% or more of their value within three months of promotion.
While established meme coins like Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) and Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) have maintained liquidity and market relevance, the majority of promoted meme coins fail to replicate this success.

Only 3% of tokens managed to deliver the coveted 10x returns often promised by influencers, with larger influencers faring even worse—tokens they promoted delivered an average negative return of 89% within three months.
Zhao's comments align with a growing push within the crypto community for more responsible behavior from platforms and influencers. 
Eric Chen, CEO and co-founder of Injective Labs, noted that influencers in the crypto space span a wide range of strategies, from promoting speculative tokens to offering more qualitative insights.
"While some influencers undoubtedly engage in questionable promotions, it's important not to generalize their actions to the entire community," Chen told Benzinga. 
He emphasized that token performance depends on multiple factors, including broader market sentiment, whale activity, and retail investor participation. 
However, Chen cautioned that influencers wield significant power over market trends and should act responsibly.
