The aerospace engine manufacturer continues its recovery in mid-session this Friday, within a significantly bullish CAC 40. The stock extends the rebound that began earlier in the week, supported by a target price upgrade issued yesterday by a French broker.
Safran climbs 2.18% to €309.60 at midday, among the strongest gains in the CAC 40, which is up nearly 1%. This movement comes after the target upgrade published by CIC Market Solutions, which has set its target at €355 and confirms its buy rating. The implied theoretical potential is nearly 15% relative to the current price. The stock thus continues the momentum started earlier this week, as illustrated by Wednesday's rebound. Over the week, the stock has gained nearly 11%, erasing a good part of the decline accumulated over three months (-8.94%).

At €309.60, the price is above its three reference moving averages, with a 9% gap from the MM20 (€284.02) and 3.3% from the MM200 (€299.68). This configuration reflects the magnitude of the weekly rebound, after a difficult period that had led the stock to test the €275 zone in mid-May. The RSI at 59 remains in neutral territory, without particular tension. The next technical step plays out at the resistance identified at €316.30, about 2% from the current price. Over one year, the stock now shows a progression of 19.3%.
