The decline returns hard, but conviction keeps fading
Our view last week
Ballard Power closes the week up 7.4%, its first breather after two heavy double-digit weeks. The bounce comes off a double bottom in the 2.7 area, with an intermediate rebound of 22% from the lows. But sellers still dominate volume, at 53%, and cash flow keeps worsening: a divergence that matters more than the bounce itself. The weekly ADX has been sliding for a third straight week, a sign the trend is losing conviction.
This week's summary
Last week's breather lasted exactly one week: Ballard Power stock falls back 7.9% and sellers regain control of volume, at 64%. Cash flow keeps worsening, hitting its most negative reading in four weeks, while the weekly ADX slides for a third straight week — a sign this decline keeps losing conviction even as price falls. Quarterly earnings land today too, a possible volatility catalyst.
