Did General Electric Just Break Support?
General Electric staggered throughout the course of 2021, and now the bulls may be jumping ship.
The main pattern on today’s chart is the close under $88. The industrial stock bounced around that level in December, January and February. Has it finally lost relevance as support?
Next, consider the lower high last month versus January. That kind of descending triangle is potentially consistent with a downtrend starting.
Third, GE hit a 2-1/2 year high above $115 on November 9 after management formally announced its three-part breakup plan. It then failed to hold that peak, which suggests investors “sold the news.”
Fourth, shortly after the stock broke lower, its 50-day simple moving average (SMA) slid beneath the 200-day SMA: a potentially bearish “death cross.”
