Transocean Stock Slumps 9% Last Week, Outlook For This Week?
Share on facebook

Transocean Ltd. stock price slumped 9.80% in the last week showing signs of weakness over the daily chart. The RIG stock fell below the 50-day EMA indicating early signs of short-term bearishness.

The price trend analysis demonstrates that the Transocean stock price has been in a consolidation of over 80 days near the recent swing high. The stock price has been delivering a bullish outlook for the last three quarters and surged to gain over a 100% return into the RIG investors in the last three quarters.

However, the current quarter illustrates a consolidation near the swing high. Recently, the RIG stock price fell nearly 10% last week and made a breakdown below the 50-day EMA and the lower range of consolidation. However, the bulls showed participation in the last 2 sessions, and the price managed to re-enter the range. 

The short-term trend is indecisive at the moment. The breakdown of the recent low may tilt the short-term trend on the bearish side and the stock price may decline to test the 200-day EMA. 

Moreover, the breakout above the 50-day EMA may again invite buyers to enter the market and the price may surge higher.

The overall technical indicators including RSI and MACD opinion rating for the RIG stock is a 40% “buy” with a weakest short-term outlook on maintaining the current trend.  

Conclusion

Transocean Ltd. stock price has gained over 5% in the past three sessions after falling to a three-year low. The price trend is bearish in the short and long term but the recent strength may indicate a reversal. October could be a game-changer for the stock but investors must try to surpass the upper supply zone and accumulate more buying volume at the lower demand zone to turn the trend in their favor. The average analyst price target for Transocean stock in 2023 is $49.26, with a wide range of targets between $43.00 to $54.00.
