(Updated on Jun 05, 2026)
The Union Pacific Corporation stock price gained 3.19% on the last trading day (Friday, 5th Jun 2026), rising from $263.90 to $272.32. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 3.64% from a day low at $264.49 to a day high of $274.13. The price has risen in 7 of the last 10 days and is up by 2.59% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -2 million shares and in total, 0 shares were bought and sold for approximately $0 . 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 stock lies in the middle of a strong rising trend in the short term and a further rise within the trend is signaled. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 13.38% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $298.42 and $325.87 at the end of this 3-month period.
UNP Signals & Forecast
The Union Pacific Corporation stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock, but the stock has a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $265.17 and $265.44. 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 3.89%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). 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 stock had a Golden Star Signal on Tuesday, August 19, 2025 in the long-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 stock in question.
