The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. (NYSE:PNC) recently announced an agreement to acquire the U.S. side of BBVA’s business. With this acquisition, PNC Financial Services would become the largest regional bank company in the US and the 5^th biggest largest U.S. retail bank. PNC Financial Services would only be trailing JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Bank of America (BAC), Wells Fargo (WFC), and Citigroup (C).

So far in 2020, PNC has taken a 17% haircut. However, the shares last week cleared their 320-day moving average, a trendline that stifled a rally back in June. In the last six months, the stock has tacked on 25%. 

Using Schaeffer's robust historical database, we conduct extensive research on each underlying equity and determined which of those underlying equities’ options have historically had underpriced or overpriced options. In doing so, each stock is given a Schaeffer's Volatility Scorecard (SVS) ranking. PNC is currently sporting a ranking of 82 out of 100. A high SVS reading indicates that the stock has consistently delivered bigger returns than its options implied volatility (IV) levels have predicted, meaning it may be a strong candidate for premium-buying strategies going forward. 

PNC Financial Services has beat expectations on all of its four most recent earnings reports. In the fourth quarter of 2019, PNC Financial Services beat expectations by $0.04. To kick off 2020, the company beat expectations by a margin of $0.24. PNC Financial Services boosted its EPS to remarkable $8.40 in the second quarter of 2020. beating expectations by an enormous margin of $7.89. In its most recent quarterly report, PNC Financial Services beat its earnings target by a whopping 60% with a reported an EPS of $3.39 instead of the expected EPS of $2.12. As for PNC Financial Services' next earnings report, the company is expected to report an EPS of $2.53.

PNC stock offers a forward dividend of $4.60 and a dividend yield of 3.56%. The last dividend PNC Financial Services paid was for $1.15. The company has paid dividends since 1986.

As would be expected of such a large banking institution, PNC Financial Services' fundamentals are solid. The only negative fundamental mark is the $42.65 billion in debt that the company holds. Nonetheless, the bank's profits are consistent and its revenues continue to grow on an annual basis. Furthermore, PNC currently trades at an unreasonably low price-earnings ratio of 7.83 and offers a fairly high dividend yield. In addition, the company also has a book value of $117.36 and price-to-book value of 1.11, which means the stock trades at nearly the same price as what the company’s equity is worth.

Overall, as an investment, PNC Financial Services has all the security that comes with most of the other big bank stocks. The company's recent acquisition of BBVA USA demonstrates its ambition to grow and compete with the “Big Four Banks." From a risk/reward perspective, PNC stock is perhaps one of the most attractive plays within the banking sector right now.

Below is a brief list of some key market events and a few high-profile earnings releases scheduled for the upcoming week. All earnings and economic dates listed below are tentative and subject to change. Please check with each company's respective website for official reporting dates.

Monday, November 23 kicks the week off with a bang, as the latest Chicago Fed national activity data is due out. Additionally, Markit manufacturing and services PMI will  be reported.

Tuesday, November 24 comes with the Case-Shiller national home price index, as well as the consumer confidence index.

It's an absolutely jam-packed day on Wednesday, November 25, as initial and continuing jobless claims data is slated to be released. Meanwhile, durable goods and core capital goods orders data are on tap, as well, while new home sales will be reported later on. Rounding out the day, personal income, consumer spending, core inflation, and the consumer sentiment index data are all due out.

It's a similarly slow day on Friday, November 27, as no economic data will be released and markets closing at 1 p.m.

The shares of Nasdaq Inc (NASDAQ:NDAQ) are up 3% at $126.43 this morning, following news that the shares exchange operator entered a definitive agreement to purchase anti-financial crime software name Verafin in a $2.75 billion cash deal. Nasdaq said it believes the deal will bolster its current suite of financial security products. 

This pop has NDAQ set to snap a five-day losing streak, bolstered by familiar support at the 150-day moving average -- a trendline that deftly captured a pullback in late October. Though it still has a ways to go before reaching its Nov. 9 all-time-high of $139.50, the equity still sports a 19.6% year-over-year lead. 

While options volume remains subdued, the 799 calls that have crossed the tape so far today are more than double what is typically seen at this point, and over three times the number of puts exchanged. Most popular by far is the monthly December 120 call, where positions are currently being opened, while the November 120 call is trailing behind. 

The brokerage bunch is split on the security, with six of the 13 in question calling it a "strong buy," and seven saying "hold." Meanwhile, the 12-month consensus price target of $143.56 is a 13.4% premium to current levels. 

Restaurant chain Texas Roadhouse Inc (NASDAQ:TXRH) has enjoyed an impressive rally from its mid-March lows, despite the coronavirus pandemic’s weight on the sector. The stock pulled back sharply from its all-time high at the beginning of the week, but its 40-day moving average stepped up as support. This moving average is important; it connects a trendline from those March lows, and has been a key area for both bull and bearish trends. That being said, now looks like an opportune time to bet on TXRH’s next leg higher.

It’s certainly a good time for contrarians to weigh in, considering the equity’s Schaeffer’s put/call open interest ratio (SOIR) of 1.88, which sits in the 97th percentile of its annual range. This means short-term options traders have rarely been more put-biased in the past 12 months. Furthermore, TXRH’s 10-day put/call volume ratio of 2.87 at the International Securities Exchange (ISE), Cboe Options Exchange (CBOE), and NASDAQ OMX PHLX (PHLX) sits higher than 84% of readings from the past year.

Although shorts are in covering mode, short interest still makes up 7.1% of the security’s available float. It would take over five days to buy back those bearish bets, at TXRH’s average pace of trading. Meanwhile, a round of analyst upgrades could act as a tailwind as well. Of the 18 brokerages in coverage, 15 sport a lukewarm “hold” rating on the stock.

The good news for options traders is that the stock’s Schaeffer’s Volatility Index (SVI) of 49% sits higher than just 15% of all other annual readings, meaning options traders are pricing in relatively low volatility expectations at the moment. Plus, Texas Roadhouse stock’s Schaeffer’s Volatility Scorecard (SVS) ranks at a relatively high 73 out of 100, meaning the equity has tended to exceed these expectations.

Processed food giant Campbell Soup Company (NYSE:CPB) operates and owns many popular brands including Prego, Pepperidge Farm, and V8. The company is most well-known for its iconic Campbell Soup brand. Throughout the coronavirus pandemic, CPB has been one of the few stocks that has not seen much volatility as compared to its peers. The stock scored a three-year high of $57.54 on March 17 and fell to an annual low of $40.70 just a week later by March 27. Despite the choppy price action, the shares are holding on to their year-to-date breakeven level.

Using Schaeffer's extensive historical database, we conduct extensive research on each underlying equity and determined which of those underlying equities’ options have historically had underpriced or overpriced options. We rank each equity’s options relative to the others in our database, with scores ranging from zero to 100. Low SVS readings like this one point to CPB stock having consistently realized lower volatility than their options have priced in -- pointing to possible premium-selling candidates. CPB  currently ranks a 5 out of 100 on the Schaeffer's Volatility Scorecard (SVS). 

Campbell Soup Company has beat expectations on all four of its most recent earnings reports. In the fourth quarter of 2019, Campbell Soup Company beat expectations by $0.07. The company reported an earnings per share (EPS) of $0.78. In the following quarter, Campbell Soup Company dropped its reported EPS to $0.72. The company beat expectations by a margin of $0.06. The company boosted an EPS to $0.83 in the second quarter of 2020, beating expectations by $0.08. Most recently, in the company's fiscal third quarter earnings report, Campbell Soup Company beat Its earnings target by 5%.  The company reported an EPS of $0.63 instead of the expected EPS of $0.60, representing a $0.20 decrease in EPS as compared to the previous quarter. For Campbell Soup Company's upcoming earnings report, the company is expected to increase its EPS to $0.91.

Campbell Soup stock has a forward dividend of $1.40 and a dividend yield of 2.84%. The last dividend the company paid was for $0.35. Campbell Soup Company has paid dividends since 1980.

Campbell Soup Company's business model is about as straightforward as a company can get. Over the company’s extensive history, it has managed to gain a sizable market share through heavy product marketing; its brand is one of most recognizable in the United States.

Campbell Soup Company has maintained its steady revenue repeatedly for many years and will likely continue to do so. The company has also managed to pretty regularly increase its dividends for its investors since 1980. Campbell Soup Company's reliable dividend coupled with the stock’s lack of volatility has made CPB stock one of the best dividend stocks in the market. Some dividend-focused investors are probably kicking themselves for not picking the stock up when CPB stock price was in the low $40 range earlier this year.

Stocks fell for a second-straight day yesterday, taking an extended breather after the market's recent rally to record highs on Monday. All three major U.S. stock market indexes fell on Wednesday as investors considered the recent vaccine developments at the same time that coronavirus cases continued to surge. Amazon.com (AMZN), Microsoft (MSFT), Alphabet (GOOG), and Facebook (FB) all backpedaled yesterday, too. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI - 29,438.42) lost 344.9 points on Wednesday, while the S&P 500 Index (SPX - 3,567.79) fell 41.7 points. The Nasdaq Composite (IXIC - 11,801.60) lost 97.74 points during yesterday's trading session. The Cboe Volatility Index (VIX - 23.84) rose 1.1 point for the day yesterday.

Investors can expect that plenty of data is due out today. This data includes jobless claims data, the Philly Fed index, and existing home sales. Also set to be reported on is last month's leading economic indicators. We will, however, see some big retail names entering the earnings confessional, including Macy's (NYSE:M), BJ's Wholesale (NYSE:BJ), Ross Stores (NASDAQ:ROST), and Williams-Sonoma (NYSE:WSM).
