iShares S&P 500 Information Technology ETF Forecast
Red day on Friday for iShares S&P 500 Information Technology
(Updated on May 17, 2024)
The iShares S&P 500 Information Technology ETF price fell by -1.01% on the last day (Friday, 17th May 2024) from £28.80 to £28.51. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 0.91% from a day low at £28.50 to a day high of £28.76. The price has risen in 7 of the last 10 days and is up by 8.53% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 17 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, 168 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately £4.78 million.
The ETFis at the upper part of a wide and horizontal trend and normally this may pose a good selling opportunity but a break-up through the top trend line at £28.80 will give a strong buy signal and a trend shift could be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect iShares S&P 500 Information Technology ETF with a 90% probability to be traded between £25.73 and £28.87 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.

IUIT.L Signals & Forecast
The iShares S&P 500 Information Technology ETF holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general buy signal from the relation between the two signals where the short-term average is above the long-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at £28.08 and £27.27. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. 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.
