After rebounding from a low at just above $18, JBH quickly jumped into the $30s, but then had a difficult time breaking from an extended right triangle[2]. 

Now, however, heavy buying is driving the stock through resistance[3] at $34 with a likely trading target of $40-plus. 

S&P rates the stock a “four-star buy” with a fundamental target of $39.
