Hewlett Packard Enterprise Pulls Back
Hewlett Packard Enterprise jumped to a new record high last week, and some traders may see opportunities in this week’s pullback.
The first pattern on today’s chart is the surge on December 6 after earnings and revenue beat estimates. HPE has retraced all the move and is now trying to make a higher weekly low. That may suggest an uptrend is in place.
Second is the price zone between roughly $21 and $21.62, matching peaks in July and October. The stock fought this resistance area for a month but could now be turning it into support.
Third, the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) recently crossed above the 100-day SMA. Both are above the 200-day SMA. That configuration may be consistent with a longer-term uptrend.
Finally, HPE’s last quarterly report triggered several price-target hikes from analysts but it still trades at relatively low valuations compared with other technology companies. It’s also starting to enter the AI market. Could it be a “cheap AI play” for the New Year?
