Mps drops 3.8% as sellers return, trend holds firm

August 21, 2026

Our view last week

Monte dei Paschi stock keeps climbing: +1.1% this week, with 96% of trading on the buy side and the ADX rising again, above 38 — the trend keeps gaining conviction. Price is still squeezed into a tight band between the 11.98 and 12.08 areas, though, and overall volume is contracting. The trade, under management for 17 weeks, is now running at +31.3% since entry.

This week's summary

After weeks of near-uninterrupted push, Mps slows down: the week closes at -3.8% as sellers take back the lead, with 84% of volume on the sell side. The bigger picture doesn't break, though: the ADX keeps climbing, now in its 13th straight week, and on the daily chart price keeps carving higher lows from the 11 area toward the 12 area. The trade, open for 18 weeks, is running at +26.3%.
