Air Liquide shares hit a record high of €184.84 and extend their rally

The industrial and medical gases group reached a new all-time intraday high, a few days after publishing its quarterly business update. It is advancing in a CAC 40 that is up sharply, while a target price increase from Citi dated the previous day adds to the context.


Air Liquide shares hit a record high of €184.84 and extend their rally

A peak at €184.84 that places the stock well above its moving averages

Air Liquide touched €184.84 intraday, a new all-time record after the €182.66 reached on Tuesday. The stock is trading at €184.74 and gains 1.19% over the session, while the CAC 40 rises 1.52%.

Over one week, the gain reaches 5.91%, and the price is 5.84% above its 20-day moving average (MM20) of €174.55, a gap that has widened with this rally.

The RSI at 78 reflects an overbought configuration. The round level of €185 is the next reference point above the price: no prior technical resistance exists, as the stock is trading in uncharted territory.
