Imerys stock breaks through its 30-session floor at 21.86 €
The industrial minerals specialist is declining mid-morning in a sharply lower Paris market. The session extends a series of pullbacks and brings the stock below several technical benchmarks, one week before its quarterly earnings.
The stock retreats below a former support now acting as resistance
The price of Imerys stock is down 1.82% at 21.56 €, below the lowest point of the last 30 sessions (21.86 €) which it has just broken through and which now acts as resistance. The decline reaches 2.8% over seven days, and the stock is trading below its three moving averages, at 3.01% below the 20-day MA and at 6.50% below the 50-day MA. The RSI at 36 remains above the oversold zone.
The next identified benchmark is the support level at 19.84 €. This movement extends a pullback phase that began several weeks ago: the stock had already abandoned the 21.92 € threshold on October 20. The session is taking place in a CAC 40 that is declining 1.51% and while the yield on the 10-year OAT, at 4.99% according to the latest reading from the Banque de France on October 21, remains close to its highest level since 2004.
A quantified guidance from summer and earnings expected on October 29
When publishing the first half of 2026 results on July 29, Imerys had set expected EBITDA at 565 million euros for the remainder of the fiscal year. Since then, the stock has mostly moved in the opposite direction of this benchmark: it shows -3.66% over one month, but -0.92% over three months, which indicates that most of the decline is recent. The next event is the publication of third quarter 2026 results, scheduled for October 29.
