Verallia Shares Break New Support, Down 9.5% Over a Month
The French glass packaging manufacturer continues its slide mid-session, while the SBF 120 remains slightly positive. The stock has been breaking through technical thresholds since the beginning of the month, amid a multi-week retreat.
The Stock Breaks a New Technical Support and Moves Away from Its Moving Averages
Verallia's stock fell by 2.66% to €18.27, down from the previous close of €18.77, which served as an immediate support. This threshold gave way during the session, extending a series of breaks already observed since the beginning of the month, following the technical break on Friday, June 21, and the break of €19.50 a few days earlier. The price is now significantly below its three moving averages: the MM20 at €19.70 is 7.26% above the current price, the MM200 at €21.32 shows a gap of 14.31%. The RSI at 39 indicates seller fatigue without tipping into oversold territory, while the MACD remains below its signal line, consistent with the deterioration of the short-term trend.
The decline today brings the weekly loss to 6.5% and the monthly drop to 9.2%, erasing part of the rebound observed in May. Over three months, the performance remains positive (+11%), reflecting the recovery that began after the spring lows. However, over a year, the stock is still down by 35.21%.
A Decline Isolated in a Slightly Positive SBF 120, with No Corporate News Relay
The drop occurs in a context of a generally well-oriented index: the SBF 120 is up by 0.24% and the CAC 40 gains 0.35% during the session. Air France-KLM leads the sector with a +6.87% increase, followed by Forvia and Interparfums. Verallia, on the other hand, finds itself in the lower half of the rankings, distant from the day's biggest losers (Exosens, SES, Exail Technologies), which isolates its movement from a potential broad sectoral downturn.
The market context remains marked by a VIX that has risen to 18.83 (+8.97%), reflecting a resurgence of caution in the United States with the Nasdaq down by 2.21%. In the background, the more restrictive tone of major central banks mentioned at the beginning of the week continues to fuel volatility in risky assets, without specifically targeting the glass packaging sector. The next technical milestone is now at the contact of the spring lows, the downward test of the former support at €18.77, now broken, could pave the way for a test of the spring lows.
