SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC Stock: Up 2.01% at Close
SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC ended higher on Monday, October 27, 2025, marking its third consecutive session of gains. The stock rose by 2.01% at close. Morgan Stanley raised its price target from 240 to 280 euros and upgraded from 'equal-weight' to 'overweight', providing significant support to the stock.
Market Performance and Technical Indicators
SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC closed at 258.75 euros, up 2.01% from 253.65 euros. The stock is on an upward trend: it has shown a weekly performance of 5.14%, quarterly of 9.52%, and annual of 6.77%. The CAC 40 index itself rose by 0.16%, reaching 8,239.18 points, with an annual gain of 9.89%. SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC significantly outperforms its benchmark index. However, activity remained low with only 0.12% of the capital traded, suggesting limited participation in price movements. The stock is approaching its highs since February, nearing 259.60 euros and remaining within 5% of that level. The technical context shows the stock well anchored above its main moving averages, providing a solid base for short-term prospects.
Analyst Support and Future Projections
The bullish movement is primarily supported by Morgan Stanley's analyst revision, who foresee an inflection in operating margins starting from 2026-2027. Acknowledging slower margin progression at SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC compared to its competitors this year, the bank sees a reversal thanks to several catalysts: productivity gains, a rebound in profitable activities particularly in construction, and notably the completion of the transition to the SaaS model scheduled for 2027. This shift to subscription, which has been penalizing so far, is expected to stop weighing on margins by 2027. Morgan Stanley projects an earnings per share growth of 17% in 2027, driven by an organic expansion of 8% and a one percentage point margin improvement. In the longer term, the group has a competitive offering in the data center equipment market, particularly in liquid cooling, strengthened by its collaboration with NVIDIA.
Technical Analysis
From a technical standpoint, SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC is trading above its 50-day (232.29 euros) and 200-day (226.85 euros) moving averages, confirming a bullish structure. The Relative Strength Index stands at 54, indicating a neutral positioning. The MACD shows a slightly negative histogram of -0.19. The technical support is positioned at 226.95 euros. The one-month volatility is set at 6.45, reflecting moderate nervousness.
