Evaluation of THE CONSUMER STAPLES SELECT SECTOR SPDR ETF downgraded after the last trading session
(Updated on Nov 17, 2025)
The THE CONSUMER STAPLES SELECT SECTOR SPDR ETF price fell by -0.634% on the last day (Monday, 17th Nov 2025) from $77.26 to $76.77. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 1.15% from a day low at $76.72 to a day high of $77.60. The price has fallen in 6 of the last 10 days but is still up by 1.39% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 92 thousand shares but on falling prices. This may be an early warning and the risk will be increased slightly over the next couple of days. In total, 13 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $1.01 billion.
The ETF lies in the middle of a narrow and falling trend in the short term and further fall within the trend is signaled. Given the current short-term trend, the ETF is expected to fall -6.21% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $70.37 and $73.42 at the end of this 3-month period. Do note, that if the ETF price manages to stay at current levels or higher, our prediction target will start to change positively over the next few days as the conditions for the current predictions will be broken.
XLP Signals & Forecast
A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, November 06, 2025, and so far it has risen 1.55%. 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. The THE CONSUMER STAPLES SELECT SECTOR SPDR 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. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $77.03 and $77.81. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the ETF should be followed more closely.

For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 18th we expect THE CONSUMER STAPLES SELECT SECTOR SPDR FUND to open at $77.03, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $76.36 and $77.18, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.82 (+/-1.08%) up or down from last closing price.
