VanEck Vectors Preferred Securities ex ETF downgraded from Hold/Accumulate to Sell Candidate after Thursday trading session
(Updated on Jun 11, 2026)
The VanEck Vectors Preferred Securities ex ETF price gained 1.05% on the last trading day (Thursday, 11th Jun 2026), rising from $18.18 to $18.37. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 1.29% from a day low at $18.16 to a day high of $18.39. The price has fallen in 6 of the last 10 days and is down by -1.76% for this period. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 146 thousand more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 881 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $16.18 million.
The ETF lies in the lower part of a narrow and weak rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good buying opportunity. If the lower trend floor at $18.20 is broken, it will firstly indicate a slower rate of rising, but may also be an early warning for a trend shift. Given the current short-term trend, the ETF is expected to rise 6.91% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $19.46 and $20.41 at the end of this 3-month period.
PFXF Signals & Forecast
Volume is rising along with the price. This is considered to be a good technical signal. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The VanEck Vectors Preferred Securities ex 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.
