AstraZeneca’s Share Price Reaches A New Resistance Level

$AZN share price reached a new resistance at $60.87 in July 2021, after millions of doses were rolled out across the world. As of yesterday, 40.6% of the world population has received at least one dose of a Covid-19 vaccine. There have been several cases of countries halting the use of the $AZN vaccine as a result of rare cases of blood clots. The share price of major vaccine companies like Moderna, BioNTech-Pfizer, Sinovac had a shortfall. As many companies are making it mandatory for their workers to be vaccinated, more of these vaccines will be rolled out. As many companies are beginning to return to the office, incentives were given to the workers for receiving the Covid-19 jab. Workers who fail to receive the jab might risk termination.

Companies like American Airlines, Bolthouse Farms, Dollar General, Instacart are paying workers after being vaccinated. The price of $AZN went as low as $46.38 in February of this year as several issues were raised across all vaccine manufacturing companies, majorly for blot clots. Since July, $AZN has been consolidating around the resistance at $60.83. The price might drop in the coming weeks as some workers of companies might tender resignation because the vaccines are made mandatory, which deprives them of their human rights. Since May 2021, RSI has shown three indications of the price being overbought.

Netflix’s Price Has Been Consolidating

The first half of 2020 started so well for Netflix investors as the price remained bullish. The lockdown must have aided the bull run as many countries were on lockdown, getting on Netflix was one of the ways to maximize the lockdown. Before the lockdown, between January 2018 and January 2020, the price of $NFLX was ranging between $228.51 and $421.60. But in May 2020, a breakout to the upside occurred as price brokeout the then $421.60 resistance level. The highest price level $NFLX reached this year was at $591.89, resulting in major resistance. The resistance level at $591.89 was last reached in July 2015 when $NFLX had a stock split at 7 for 1, as the price moved from $662.25 to $110.69.

A head and shoulder pattern is being formed as price retraces back to $569.19. RSI has indicated at two different times of price being overbought between July and August 2021. A reversal might occur, which might result in a sell-off. $NFLX might lose about 160points from the current price at $569.19. Price is currently maintaining the upper region of the Bollinger bands. This year’s support stands at $479.57. As sell-off begins to occur, the year’s gain might be wiped out, as the price might reverse to $409.96.

Goldman Share Price Might Drop

Goldman Sachs’s share price reached an all-time high at $418.27 on the 12th of August, that’s about two weeks ago. This could have happened as a result of $GS’s deal with Fiserv. Towards the last week in July 2021, Goldman Sachs boosted the transaction banking business with the Fiserv tie-up. This innovation has attracted more than 250 clients, which was over $35billion in deposits and trillions of dollars in the system since June. The all-time high of $GS in June was at $392.71.

Just recently, Goldman Sachs demands proof of vaccine status for US office entry. This may not go well with some clients as there are many controversies around the administered vaccine. The return-to-work policy is accompanied by mandatory once-a-week testing for employees and enforced mask-wearing in shared office spaces to contain the rapid spread of the Delta variant in the US.

In August, $GS had the most recent all-time high at $418.27, after which the price began to fall, there was a retracement that brought the price to $416.69 just yesterday. Indications are showing of a possible reversal, which might be due to the new work policy in $GS, for the mandatory vaccine for both staff and visitors. A drop in price might occur, which might bring the price to $361.95.  This might be unfavorable for $GS investors. The new work policy might not stand as there are rising cases of vaccinated persons contracting covid again. RSI has shown since May the price being overbought at three different instances.

SPX Might Lose Its Bullish Strength Temporarily

SPX is an American index based on 500 large companies listed on NYSE and NASDAQ exchanges. Many regard it as a haven. Many of the stocks in the SPX have reached new all-time highs in the last decade.

Dow Jones Fails to Breakout of Resistance

Dow Jones, being the index of the 30 top-performing U.S. companies, has been in range in the past few months, with the all-time high at $35,260. In January 2021, the Dow Jones passed the psychological level at $30,000 for the first time.

Prices of many stocks in the US have reached new all-time highs after the pandemic. There have been rising cases of covid-19 across the world, and especially with the USA having an average of over 100,000 new cases per day.

If covid-19 cases cannot be controlled in the next few months despite vaccines being administered, stock prices might begin to fall across the world and lockdown might be re-imposed. The next major support of $DJI could be around $26,900 if the price falls. As the price of $DJI crosses $33,000, RSI indicated that the price has been overbought, though the bulls still pushed the price higher to reach $35,000. The last time RSI showed that price has been overbought, the price of $DJI was below $30,000 which resulted in about a 40% dip in price.

Price still maintained the higher part of the Bollinger bands, though, in June, there was an indication of a reversal in price, as the price fell to $33,100 from $34,900. Companies in Dow Jones with the highest losses in July were Verizon with 5.9%, Walt Disney 2.5%, and Merck 3.1%. If the price of $DJI fails to break the resistance level at $35,260, the price might fall and might be catastrophic for the investors.
