The eight-day simple moving average of $65.74 and the 20-day SMA of $65.10 both indicate a bearish signal, while the 50-day SMA of $64.32 offers a slight technical bullish signal.
However, the stock’s price is still below the 200-day SMA of $68.84, which suggests a bearish outlook in the longer term.
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator at 0.4 indicates some positive momentum, while the Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 48.59 shows that the stock is nearing oversold territory but has not yet reached it.
Investors should be cautious, as the stock could see more downside in the near term, though any recovery above key moving averages could trigger a shift toward a bullish trend.
