Maintain ABT (Abbott Laboratories) as a Hold given the intact defensive compounder profile ($7.21B FCF, IG balance sheet, 1.6x dividend coverage) and reasonable 17.8x forward P/E, but avoid adding at current ~$107.81 into a descending 200 SMA with the August 12 CPI print approaching; re-engage with a conditional add of 25–33% of intended capital on two consecutive closes above $107.50 with RSI >65.
