Kroger Stock Forecast

Kroger stock downgraded to Sell Candidate
(Updated on Apr 23, 2024)

KR Signals & Forecast

There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The Kroger stock holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the stock. 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 $55.80 and $55.87. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Tuesday, April 02, 2024, and so far it has fallen -3.79%. 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). Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the stock should be followed more closely.
