Caterpillar: the decline continues
Our view last week
Caterpillar closes the week up 1% and confirms a clean double bottom in the 854 area, recovering 28% off the lows. Caterpillar stock stays inside a fresh sell signal, now in its second week of observation: against last week's plunge, signal strength drops to 41, an isolated dip rather than a renewed downside push. The quality band flags trading as not recommended.
This week's summary
Caterpillar stock drops 8.3% in a rough week and slides back into the 838 area, already touched in prior weeks, but no session has defended it yet: for now the down move stays in play. The Sell signal is in its third week, 9th among the 138 US sell signals, with sellers still in control of the flow. Earnings due Thursday add extra volatility to an already delicate technical picture.
