Dassault Aviation Shares Drop 2.21% Approaching Support at €290.60

A Session in the Red Near a Sensitive Technical Threshold

Dassault Aviation's stock falls by 2.21% to €292.00, down from €298.60 the previous day. The stock ranks 115th out of 120 in the SBF 120, at the bottom of the table alongside Thales (-2.46%) and Air France-KLM (-2.92%). The CAC 40 is down 0.77% at 8,139.19 points during the session, while the SBF 120 drops 0.72%.

The price approaches its support at €290.60, a level that had not been tested for several weeks. The Bollinger bands place the lower boundary at €280.23, with the stock moving in the lower part of the channel. The RSI at 39 reflects the erosion observed since mid-April, without entering an oversold zone. The decline is part of a broader dynamic: the stock is down 7.89% over three months and 8.81% over a year. As a reminder, on April 24, the stock had already slipped below €300 while testing its 200-day moving average, now at €296.28.

Heading Towards the General Meeting on May 13

The financial calendar schedules the general meeting of shareholders for May 13, 2026, which is next Wednesday. This statutory meeting comes as the stock has experienced a bumpy ride since reaching a historic high of €339.40 in February. The 50-day moving average, at €325.31, remains more than 11% above the current price, indicating a deterioration in the medium-term trend.

The defense sector shows a negative hue during the session, with Thales (-2.46%) also in the lower zone of the SBF 120. Safran limits its decline to 1.02%. The beta of -0.17 indicates a historical decorrelation of the stock from the market, but this characteristic does not play in its favor this Friday. After the meeting on May 13, the next key dates are the first half 2026 results on July 22, followed by the third quarter publication on October 28. The support at €290.60 remains the short-term technical reference level.
