iShares MSCI Pacific ex Japan ETF downgraded from Buy Candidate to Hold/Accumulate after Monday trading session
(Updated on Jun 22, 2026)
The iShares MSCI Pacific ex Japan ETF price fell by -0.185% on the last day (Monday, 22nd Jun 2026) from $53.93 to $53.83. It has now fallen 3 days in a row. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 0.428% from a day low at $53.75 to a day high of $53.98. The price has fallen in 6 of the last 10 days but is still up by 1.3% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 26 thousand shares but on falling prices. This may be an early warning and the risk will be increased slightly over the next couple of days. In total, 182 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $9.81 million.
The ETF is at the lower part of a horizontal trend in the short term, and normally this may pose a good buying opportunity, though a breakdown through the bottom trend line at $53.06 will give a strong sell signal and a trend shift may be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect iShares MSCI Pacific ex Japan ETF with a 90% probability to be traded between $53.44 and $57.50 at the end of this 3-month period. A break of a horizontal trend is often followed by a large increase in the volume, and ETFS seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. ETFS turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners.
EPP Signals & Forecast
A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Wednesday, June 10, 2026, and so far it has risen 1.55%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The iShares MSCI Pacific ex Japan ETF holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the ETF. Also, there is a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $54.19 and $54.93. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the ETF should be followed more closely.
