Has Block Bottomed?
Block was a prominent growth stock before and during the pandemic. Like most companies of that type, it fell sharply between late-2021 and late-2022 as interest rates rose. But now it may be showing signs of bottoming and potentially turning higher.
The first pattern on today’s chart is last November’s high of $75.77. SQ broke above that level in late January and held it this week. Has old resistance become new support?
Second, the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) is back above the 200-day SMA for the first time in over a year. That kind of “golden cross” may suggest the longer-term uptrend has grown more bullish.
Third, the lower study features our 2 MA Ratio custom script. It uses the default settings of the 8- and 21-day exponential moving averages (EMAs). Notice how the fast EMA remained above the slower EMA during the latest pullback.
Finally, SQ jumped on November 4 after earnings and revenue beat estimates. That may keep traders focused on the fintech with the next set of numbers due after the closing bell this coming Thursday, February 23.
