Imerys stock breaks its support level and erases 6.5% in one week

A 3% decline that breaks support and intensifies pressure below moving averages

Imerys fell 3.07% to €22.72 at Monday's close, as the SBF 120 lost 0.85% at the end of the session. The movement is significant: the stock broke through its support level at €23.14 during the session and failed to recover above it, confirming the breach of this monitored threshold. This level had already been broken on Friday, in a decline that brought the weekly loss to 5.5%; over the rolling week, the decline now reaches 6.58%. The stock is trading below its three moving averages: the 50-day MA at €23.15 and the 200-day MA at €23.19 form a nearby ceiling, with the gap remaining contained at less than 2%.

The 20-day MA, by contrast, is notably further away at €24.06, or 5.57% above the current price. The RSI at 44 does not yet indicate a clear oversold zone, leaving room for further downside before approaching 30. At this stage, the next resistance level stands at €25.02, approximately 10% above the closing price.

A limited monthly decline but a weekly dynamic that weighs on the underlying trend

Over one month, the decline remains relatively contained at 4.54%, and over three months the stock still shows a slight gain of 1.88%, a sign that the recent downturn is erasing part of a rebound built since summer. Over one year, performance remains modest at +2.34%. The market context is not helping: the CAC 40 and SBF 120 both close down 0.85%, in a session marked by geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and the prospect of major monetary decisions this week, with the Federal Reserve meeting on Wednesday and the Bank of Japan on Friday.

Brent, at $107.65 per barrel on Monday, rose nearly 3% during the session, an energy context that indirectly increases operating costs in the industrial mining sector. When publishing first-half 2026 results on July 30, Imerys communicated an EBITDA target of €565 million for the fiscal year. The current price remains below the 50-day MA at €23.15, which constitutes the first level to recapture for any stabilization attempt.
