A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Monday, October 20, 2025, and so far it has risen 1.20%. 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). Volume fell during the last trading day despite gaining prices. This causes a divergence between volume and price and it may be an early warning. The stock should be watched closely.

The Western Asset High Income Fund II Inc stock holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the stock.
