More Weakness For CSL

Technicals | Jul 12 2011

By Rudi Filapek-Vandyck

The TechWizard confessed yesterday he had been keeping a close eye on CSL ((CSL)) shares, as his gutfeel was telling him support was likely not strong enough to keep the shares in the mid-30s. It turns out, the Wizard's gutfeel was correct.

CSL shares have joined the broader market in a pronounced sell-off this week and from a technical point of view, the shares have now broken below the 20 moving average (M/A). This, predicts the Wizard, will simply attract more selling.

The Wizard believes a retest of the low point at $30.57 is not out of the question. He reports only a weekly close back above $33 will turn the M/A bullish and reduce the selling pressure.

The TechWizard has informed us he at present does not own any shares in the company.
