HP Inc. drops 6% and closes below the Inversion Point: buy signal on the line

October 09, 2026

Our view last week

After last week's 9% drop, HP Inc. stock gained 2.6% and, on the daily chart, broke the run of 3 lower highs in place since Sep 11. Price action turns constructive again, but momentum is cooling: the weekly MACD histogram has been falling for 3 weeks and money flow, positive for 8, has been weakening for 3. HP Inc. stays among our weekly buy signals on tech stocks, up 24.7% from entry: technical analysis of a mature, volatile swing trading setup.

This week's summary

HP Inc. stock wiped out last week's rebound, dropping 6% on contracting volumes and losing its 50-day average. Momentum keeps cooling on one of our weekly buy signals: the MACD histogram has been falling for 4 weeks. Price closed below the first stop level (SL1) flagged in last week's card (30.25 area): for anyone following that level the trade is closed. The close and the Inversion Point, in the 30 area, have already crossed with no change of sign declared: one to watch in the coming sessions.
