Aperam share abandons the 42.98 € threshold and joins the lower end of the SBF 120

A support breached during the session, below the three moving averages

Aperam share loses 3.16% to 41.62 € in early afternoon, while the CAC 40 and SBF 120 gain around 0.4%. The security breached its support level at 42.98 € during the session, the previous day's closing level, and remains below it. It ranks among the sharpest declines of the SBF 120.

The breakdown places it below its three moving averages: the MA20 (45.43 €) is 8.4% above the price, the MA200 (42.85 €) is 2.9% above. The RSI at 35 remains close to the oversold zone, after a 11.4% decline over one month. Brent crude falls 2.2% to 100.08 $ per barrel during the same session.

Cautious outlook for the third quarter following half-year results

When publishing its first-half 2026 results on July 30, the group had anticipated adjusted Ebitda down in the third quarter compared to the second, due to a seasonal pattern. The security nonetheless retains a gain of nearly 35% over one year. The next reference point is the support at 41.62 €, the current price level: its holding or breakdown will set the tone for the upcoming sessions.
