Nexans share falls below its 20-day moving average and loses nearly 2.5% on Wednesday

Nexans below its 20-day moving average in an SBF 120 declining more than 1.8% during the session

Nexans is down 2.34% to €138.00 during the session, as the SBF 120 falls 1.81% at the same time. The decline places the security below its 20-day moving average at €139.95, a threshold that had served as a pivot point during Monday's rebound. The 50-day moving average at €136.86 remains below the price, as does the 200-day moving average at €135.62, which maintains positive medium-term momentum, even though today's session erodes the gains accumulated since the start of the week.

The security had rebounded nearly 2% on Monday, September 7, following several consolidation sessions. Today's decline places it back in the indecision zone between the 20-day and 50-day moving averages, in a market context unfavorable where selling pressure affects a large majority of SBF 120 securities. The RSI at 54 remains neutral, without exhaustion signals in either direction.

A quarter under pressure and a support level at €124.10 as a medium-term reference

Over three months, Nexans posts a decline of 10.33%, which is part of an overall difficult dynamic for the European industrial sector. Performance over one year remains positive at 7.73%, which tempers the reading of the recent movement. On the fundamental side, during the publication of Q1 2026 results on April 28, the company had highlighted the acquisition of Republic Wire as a means of strengthening in North America, while citing declining Chinese demand among the risks weighing on activity.

These two elements remain current in an environment that remains geopolitically tense. The resistance at €144.70, briefly crossed at the end of August before being lost, continues to mark the nearby technical ceiling. The support at €124.10 represents the reference level on which the security relied during larger pullbacks observed earlier in the year.
