Here are this week’s stocks:

JBS (JBS)– JBS is a global meat producer that supplies beef, pork, and chicken products to retailers and restaurants worldwide. In its latest first-quarter results, the company reported record revenue of $21.6 billion, up 11% year-over-year, driven by strong performance in its Brazil and Seara pork and poultry businesses. Those gains helped offset weakness in its North American beef segment, which continued to face pressure from tight cattle supplies. JBS also increased capital spending during the quarter as it continued investing in production capacity and higher-value food products.

The stock carries a dividend yield of 8.02% and a Smart Score of Nine. Interestingly, six out of the seven Wall Street analysts covering JBS stock have rated it a Buy, with their 12-month consensus price target indicating an upside of about 54%.

Upbound Group (UPBD)– Upbound Group is a rent-to-own and consumer finance company offering flexible payment solutions for household goods. In its latest first-quarter results, the company reported revenue of $1.2 billion, up 3.7% year-over-year. Adjusted earnings per share came in at $1.08, ahead of Wall Street expectations, helped by solid customer demand and disciplined expense management. Upbound also generated $171 million in operating cash flow during the quarter and reaffirmed its full-year 2026 revenue outlook of up to $4.95 billion.

The stock carries a dividend yield of 8.12% and a Smart Score of Nine. In the last three months, all three Wall Street analysts covering UPBD stock have rated it a Buy, with their 12-month consensus price target indicating an upside of about 44%.
