(Updated on Jul 31, 2026)
The Meta Financial Group stock price gained 0.616% on the last trading day (Friday, 31st Jul 2026), rising from $87.70 to $88.24. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.52% from a day low at $87.22 to a day high of $88.54. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days but is still down by -1.69% for this period. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 88 thousand more shares were traded than the day before.

The stock lies in the middle of a wide and weak rising trend in the short term and a further rise within the trend is signaled. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 9.23% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $90.62 and $103.02 at the end of this 3-month period.
CASH Signals & Forecast
The Meta Financial Group stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock, but the stock has a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $86.95 and $87.27. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. Volume is rising along with the price. This is considered to be a good technical signal. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Wednesday, July 29, 2026, and so far it has fallen -0.709%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). The stock had a Golden Star Signal on Monday, June 22, 2026 in the short-term chart.
Golden Star Signal is when the short-term moving average, the long-term moving average, and price line meet in a special combination. This combination is very rare and often followed by long and strong gains for the stock in question.
