The French biotech company closed the trading session on Friday, October 17, at €78.50, down by 3.21% from the previous day's closing price of €81.10. This decline occurred in a generally pressured Parisian market, with the CAC 40 dropping 0.18% to 8,174.2 points, affected by concerns over American regional banks. Trading volumes remained modest, with only 0.1% of the capital traded, indicating investor caution after several sessions of gains. Over the past week, the stock has shown a slight negative performance of -0.63%, but this correction does not undermine the exceptional momentum of recent months. Since July, Abivax has seen a meteoric rise of 833.4% over three months and 816% over a year, largely driven by the positive Phase 3 results of its drug candidate obefazimod presented in early October.

Technical analysis reveals an ambivalent market situation. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) stands at 72, indicating that the stock has been in an overbought zone for several sessions, which may explain the current pause. This configuration often suggests a consolidation phase following a rapid rise, with investors taking profits before a possible rebound. However, the stock remains comfortably positioned above its moving averages, at €69.99 for the MM50 and €25.37 for the MM200, confirming a fundamentally bullish trend. The Bollinger Bands, currently framing the stock's fluctuations between €64.95 and €84.25, show that the price is approaching the upper limit of its statistical range of movement. The MACD, with a main line at 3.02 and a signal line at 2.04, remains in positive territory with a histogram at 0.99, indicating generally favorable momentum despite the day's decline. The technical support threshold identified at €68.60 provides a safety margin of nearly 13% relative to the current price, while the resistance at €83.60 remains within reach.
