Arkema stock breaks through the 56 € level intraday before rebounding
Specialty chemicals closed Tuesday's session with sharp gains, after the stock touched a low below the 56 € threshold during the trading day before making a strong recovery. Resistance at 62.35 € remains the next key level, as the Paris market itself ended in positive territory.
An intraday rebound that erases a breach of the 56 € support level
Arkema closed at 57.50 €, up 2.04% from the previous close (56.35 €). The session started on a negative note, however: the stock breached its 56 € support level during the day, falling to a low of 55.90 €, before recovering and moving well above this threshold. This type of breach followed by a quick return illustrates the tension between recent selling pressure and buyer resistance around this level.
Over the week, gains are more modest at 0.97%, following a difficult month that remains in negative territory (-2.87%). Today's market context remains favorable: the CAC 40 and SBF 120 closed slightly higher, with the VIX falling to 14.27, indicating an overall calm session.

From a technical indicators perspective, today's rebound is not enough to establish a favorable technical setup. The stock remains below its 20-day MA at 58.26 € (gap of -1.30%) and its 50-day MA at 58.59 € (gap of -1.86%), two levels that constitute obstacles to clear to confirm a reversal. One caveat: the price is practically touching the 200-day MA at 57.45 €, with a positive gap of +0.09%, which signals that the long-term average is serving as a dynamic floor for now.
The RSI at 36, close to the oversold zone, reflects the accumulated pressure on the stock since the start of the month. In the background, the industrial property dispute initiated by Arkema against HighChem in Japan concerning patents related to HFO-1233zd(E) underscores the group's active defense strategy of its patent portfolio. Resistance at 62.35 € remains the next significant technical zone to monitor.
