Episode 16 – The Adobe Paradox: Why Stellar Fundamentals Are Being Ignored by Wall Street

Adobe (NASDAQ: ADBE) looks perfect on paper — profit margins near 29%, a return on equity above 28%, and consistent year-over-year growth in both revenue and cash efficiency. Yet, the stock’s technical indicators are flashing red, institutional investors are pulling back, and traders are signaling caution.

In this episode, we dive into the paradox:

• Why Adobe’s internal strength score (6.93) places it among the healthiest software firms on the market
• What’s behind the bearish engulfing pattern and the sudden 33% collapse in trading volume
• The widening gap between institutional outflows and retail inflows
• How China’s manufacturing slowdown and global demand fears are distorting sentiment
• When fundamentals and technicals finally realign — and what signals to watch for before jumping back in

This is a masterclass in investor psychology — how strong businesses can face weak markets, and why timing sometimes matters as much as fundamentals.
