AXA stock falls over 2% and breaks its support level at €43.53

AXA breaks through its support level at €43.53 and retreats below its two first moving averages

AXA loses 2.24% to €42.73 in session, after breaching downward its support threshold at €43.53. The stock remains below this level, which represents a notable technical deterioration compared to the previous session, when it closed at €43.71. The price is now trading below the MA20 (€44.51, gap of -4.00%) and below the MA50 (€44.22, gap of -3.37%), two benchmarks that confirm medium-term selling pressure.

Only the MA200 at €40.79 remains below the current price, offering a floor at approximately 4.76% distance. The RSI at 42 is in a neutral-low zone, consistent with a pullback movement without extreme oversold signal for now. Over the week, the stock is down 2.84%, and 4.68% over one month, in a context where the CAC 40 is also declining 1.14% in session.

This morning, Citi raised its price target on AXA from €46.82 to €50.40, while maintaining its buy rating. This new target represents upside potential of nearly 18% compared to the current price of €42.73. This revision comes following the publication at the end of July of solid half-year results: operating earnings per share had increased by 8% in the first half of 2026, within the upper end of the group's target range.

Despite this positive view, the stock is losing ground on Thursday in a generally cautious market, with the VIX stabilizing at 14.93, showing a slight decline from the previous day. The next resistance level to overcome is at €45.57, more than 6% above the current price.
