Ipsos Stock Drops 2.83% and Breaks Its Support at €36.08
The stock of the polling institute accelerates its decline mid-morning in a sluggish Parisian market. The stock is among the largest declines in the SBF 120, breaking a new technical level closely watched by traders, after an already challenging session the day before.
The Stock Breaks Its Support at €36.08 and Increases Its Weekly Decline
Ipsos stock drops 2.83% to €35.06 during the session, after touching a low of €35.24. The stock broke its support at €36.08 during the session, already under pressure the previous day when it had dropped 2.5%. The decline in the session brings the weekly drop to 9.5%, reducing the still positive three-month gain to +3.5%. Over one year, the decline remains significant at -20%.
The technical setup has deteriorated: the price is now 8.4% below the MM20 (€38.27) and 5.4% below the MM50 (€37.05), while the MM200 at €34.84 is dangerously close, only 0.6% below the current price. The RSI at 36 indicates seller exhaustion for the week without having tipped into the oversold zone. The MACD remains below its signal line, extending the short-term bearish momentum.
Valuation Compressed as the Stock Ranks at the Bottom of the SBF 120
The stock posts a 2.83% decline and ranks at the bottom of the SBF 120, which is stable, and the CAC 40 barely advances by 0.08%. The session occurs in a context of a more cautious market, marked by a surge in the VIX (+11%) against a backdrop of tougher stances by major central banks and persistent tensions around the Strait of Hormuz. The contrast is stark with the bullish movement observed at the beginning of June, when the stock had broken a resistance following announcements related to the Horizons plan.
In terms of valuation, the stock is trading at approximately 6.8 times the earnings expected for the current fiscal year and 6.2 times those of 2027 according to the consensus of analysts surveyed, with an expected EPS growth of nearly 10% from one year to the next. Governance was strengthened last week with the appointment of Alexandre Guerin as Deputy CEO for Performance. The next technical level to watch is the MM200 at €34.84, whose potential break could pave the way for a new phase of consolidation.
