Texas Instruments stock slides 5.4% as sellers take control near the 265 area

August 21, 2026

Our view last week

Texas Instruments stock slips 2.3% for the week, giving back part of last week's 3.7% bounce, and tightens again inside the range between its nearest support and resistance. This week's paradox: 91% of daily volume sits on the buy side, yet cash flow stays in distribution and the latest weekly bar still shows sellers slightly ahead. The weekly ADX is sliding, the decline is losing conviction, and the sell signal, now in its fourth week, remains unconfirmed by the market.

This week's summary

Texas Instruments stock slides 5.4% this week, with sellers commanding 89% of volume — the sharpest imbalance of the last four weeks — and returns to a level already touched in the 265 area, still undefended. Money flow, positive just last week, has turned negative again: the Sell signal, under management since its fifth week and already above 5% in gains, picks up pace after a two-week pause.
