Zoom Shares Battling Heavy Resistance
Gary S. Morrow | Feb 05, 2021 12:59PM ET
Shares of Zoom Video Communications (NASDAQ:ZM) have been battling heavy resistance near its 50-day moving average since Nov. 30. The stock took a nasty post earnings spill (-15%) the next day leaving behind a huge breakdown gap. ZM trended lower over the next six weeks extending the pullback from October’s all-time high to 42%. This deep selloff retraced nearly half of the stock’s entire 2020 range. We highlighted this major support zone here . ZM fell within $5.00 of hitting $326.00.
In mid-January ZM had returned to its declining 50D but was unable to punch through . Until today. ZM is closing out the week with a 6% gain as it begins to put some distance on the January high. We expect more upside in the near term. Initial target is the $478.00 area (12/1 breakdown gap). On the downside, a close back below this week’s low ($368.00) would indicate more choppy action ahead.
Note: We are long ZM in our Tactical Opportunity Portfolio.
