Sanofi rallies 4.5% and closes out 15 weeks of selling with a fresh buy signal

August 21, 2026

Our view last week

Sanofi's rebound is losing steam: after last week's 1.1% gain, the stock adds just 0.3% this week, with sellers turning slightly prevalent on the last bar again. Price stays boxed between a floor in the 75 area and a ceiling in the 75.6 area, the sell signal has been under management for 15 weeks, and the trade currently sits at a 3.3% loss.

This week's summary

Sanofi jumps 4.5% in a week marked by a bullish engulfing bar on the daily chart and buyers controlling 93% of volume: the stock leaves behind 15 weeks under a sell signal and opens a fresh buy signal. Price hasn't broken the 7-day high yet, in the 79 area, and stays below its own 50-week average. The weekly picture is bullish, but a few warnings are still open.
