PowerShares S&P SmallCap Financials ETF upgraded from Buy Candidate to Strong Buy Candidate after Tuesday trading session
(Updated on Jun 23, 2026)
The PowerShares S&P SmallCap Financials ETF price gained 1.30% on the last trading day (Tuesday, 23rd Jun 2026), rising from $63.35 to $64.17. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 0.388% from a day low at $63.92 to a day high of $64.17. The price has risen in 7 of the last 10 days and is up by 4.29% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -907 shares and in total, 616 shares were bought and sold for approximately $39.53 thousand. You should take into consideration that falling volume on higher prices causes divergence and may be an early warning about possible changes over the next couple of days.
The ETF lies in the middle of a weak rising trend in the short term and a further rise within the trend is signaled. Given the current short-term trend, the ETF is expected to rise 8.51% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $66.16 and $71.90 at the end of this 3-month period.
PSCF Signals & Forecast
The PowerShares S&P SmallCap Financials ETF holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the ETF. 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 $63.60 and $61.90. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Wednesday, June 03, 2026, and so far it has risen 7.15%. 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. Volume fell during the last trading day while the price increased. This causes a divergence and may be considered as an early warning, but it may not be. The very low volume increases the risk and reduces the other technical signals issued. The ETF had a Golden Star Signal on Thursday, June 04, 2026 in the short-term chart.
Golden Star Signal is when the short-term moving average, the long-term moving average, and price line meet in a special combination. This combination is very rare and often followed by long and strong gains for the ETF in question.
