Gilead Sciences, Inc. stock upgraded from Sell Candidate to Hold/Accumulate after Friday trading session.
(Updated on May 17, 2024)

GIS.F Signals & Forecast

A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Monday, May 06, 2024, and so far it has risen 4.01%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Gilead Sciences, Inc. stock holds a buy signal from the short-term Moving Average; at the same time, however, the long-term average holds a general sell signal. Since the longterm average is above the short-term average there is a general sell signal in the stock giving a more negative forecast for the stock. On further gains, the stock will meet resistance from the long-term Moving Average at 62.90€. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the short-term average at 61.78€. A break-up through the long-term average will give another buy signal, while a fall below the short-term average will add another sell signal and strengthen the general signal. Gilead Sciences, Inc. gained volume on the last day, but on falling prices. In technical terms, this is called divergence and may be an early warning. In some cases, increasing volume on falling prices may be considered positive, but that is mainly in typical "sell-offs". The very low volume increases the risk and reduces the other technical signals issued.
