Verizon Stock Forecast

Hold candidate since Jul 02, 2026

The Verizon stock price gained 1.36% on the last trading day (Thursday, 2nd Jul 2026), rising from $41.99 to $42.56. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 5.70% from a day low at $40.76 to a day high of $43.08. The price has fallen in 6 of the last 10 days and is down by -7.16% for this period. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 12 million more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 59 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $2.50 billion.

The stock lies in the lower of a wide and falling trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good buying opportunity. If the lower trend floor at $41.96 is broken, it will firstly indicate a stronger fall rate. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to fall -4.23% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $40.18 and $45.64 at the end of this 3-month period.

VZ Signals & Forecast

A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Wednesday, July 01, 2026, and so far it has risen 1.36%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Volume is rising along with the price. This is considered to be a good technical signal. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Verizon 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 $44.18 and $46.41. 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).

Trading Expectations (VZ) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 6th

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 6th we expect Verizon Communications Inc to open at $42.13, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $41.85 and $43.27, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.41 (+/-3.38%) up or down from last closing price. If Verizon Communications Inc takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 3.38% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the support from accumulated volume at $42.34 (0.52%) than the resistance at $44.10 (3.62%), our systems sees the trading risk/reward intra-day as attractive and believe profit can be made before the stock reaches first resistance..
