Covivio Shares Jump 3.41% Despite Goldman Sachs Downgrade

Recent Downgrade by Goldman Sachs

The day's momentum should not overshadow the downgrade made last Monday by Goldman Sachs, which lowered its price target from €61.50 to €55.50 while maintaining a neutral recommendation. Compared to the current price of €53.00, this new target suggests a potential upside of about 4.7%, a limited gap indicating the American bank's cautious stance towards the real estate firm. The upcoming financial calendar could provide new elements for assessment. Covivio will publish its first-quarter revenue on April 15, followed by its general meeting on April 16. These two dates will be closely watched to gauge the operational trajectory of the company, especially the resilience of its rental income in an uncertain macroeconomic environment.

Stock Performance Below Key Moving Averages

Despite the significant rise recorded this Wednesday, Covivio's stock price remains well below its main moving averages. The stock is at €53.00, compared to a 50-day moving average of €55.42 and a 200-day moving average of €55.47, indicating that the underlying trend has been downward for several weeks. The gap with these levels will need to significantly narrow before a bullish reversal can be technically considered. The RSI, an indicator measuring the speed and magnitude of price movements, stands at 35, close to the conventionally set oversold zone at 30. This reading suggests that the stock has undergone significant selling pressure in recent sessions, contributing to today's rebound. The support identified at €50.30 held during recent lows, while resistance is at €62.15, a threshold still far from the current price. It is worth noting that the SBF 120, the index to which the stock belongs, is also up 2.14% in the session, somewhat relativizing the individual outperformance of the stock.
