(Updated on Jun 17, 2024)
The WESCO International Inc stock price fell by -0.720% on the last day (Monday, 17th Jun 2024) from $166.59 to $165.39. It has now fallen 3 days in a row. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.97% from a day low at $163.88 to a day high of $167.11. The price has fallen in 6 of the last 10 days and is down by -6.65% for this period. Volume fell on the last day along with the stock, which is actually a good sign as volume should follow the stock.

The stock lies in the lower part of a wide and weak rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good buying opportunity. If the lower trend floor at $161.32 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 stock is expected to rise 9.16% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $176.10 and $212.94 at the end of this 3-month period.

WCC Signals & Forecast
There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The WESCO International Inc 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 $173.70 and $176.25. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Friday, May 24, 2024, and so far it has fallen -13.49%. 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 fell together with the price during the last trading day and this reduces the overall risk as volume should follow the price movements.
