Wells Fargo Stock Forecast
Wells Fargo stock upgraded to Strong Buy Candidate.
(Updated on May 10, 2024)
The Wells Fargo stock price gained 1.00% on the last trading day (Friday, 10th May 2024), rising from $61.28 to $61.89. It has now gained 8 days in a row. It is not often that stocks manage to gain so many days in a row, and falls for a day or two should be expected. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 0.82% from a day low at $61.46 to a day high of $61.97. The price has risen in 8 of the last 10 days and is up by 3.3% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -1 million shares and in total, 13 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $792.95 million. 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 16.21% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $68.52 and $73.32 at the end of this 3-month period.

WFC Signals & Forecast
The Wells Fargo stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock. 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 $60.66 and $58.66. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Tuesday, April 30, 2024, and so far it has risen 4.33%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Volume fell during the last trading day despite gaining prices. This causes a divergence between volume and price and it may be an early warning. The stock should be watched closely. 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).
Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Wells Fargo stock
Wells Fargo finds support from accumulated volume at $60.35 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.
This stock has average movements during the day and with good trading volume, the risk is considered to be medium. During the last day, the stock moved $0.505 between high and low, or 0.82%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 1.43%.
Since the Wells Fargo has been rising for 8 days in a row, the risk over the next couple of days has increased. We don't expect a major reaction as the stock is in very good shape technically, and therefore hold a positive evaluation despite the very short term risk.
Our recommended stop-loss: $59.24 (-4.28%) (This stock has medium daily movements and this gives medium risk. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 8 days ago.)
