New Record High for Louis Hachette at €1.779
Louis Hachette today sets a new all-time high at €1.779, surpassing the previous peak of €1.7765 reached on July 10, 2025. This performance is particularly notable as it occurs amidst a decline in the CAC 40, which is down 0.52% during the session, and the SBF 120, which falls by 0.47%. Over a week, the stock has gained 7.17%, while its three-month progress reaches 10.91%. Over a year, the increase amounts to 34.62%. This movement occurs as the financial calendar of the group schedules the publication of the first quarter 2026 revenue for tomorrow, Thursday, April 16. The general assembly is also planned for May 5. Among European comparables, RELX is up 0.88% while UMG remains almost stable (+0.08%).
Technical Perspective: Stock Surpasses Upper Bollinger Band
Technically, the price of €1.779 now exceeds the upper limit of the Bollinger Bands, set at €1.76, placing the stock in a potential overbought zone (105% of the band). This breach indicates that the stock is moving beyond the usual standard deviation relative to its 20-day moving average (€1.58), signifying a marked acceleration of the trend. Furthermore, all moving averages are significantly below the current price: the MM50 at €1.62 and the MM200 at €1.59 confirm the medium and long-term upward trajectory. The former resistance threshold identified at €1.76 was crossed during the session, with the stock moving more than a cent beyond it. The next relevant support is located at €1.43, representing a significant gap of nearly 20% from the current level.
