Lastly, since July 2021, the company’s stock has been establishing higher lows, and the earnings might solidly improve the firm’s stock price.

Notably, the business is trading above its 20, 50, and 200-day simple moving averages, typically utilized by stock investors as uptrend indications. As a result of recent performance and a price above the 20-day SMA, it appears that the firm’s short-term positive momentum might push it above the current level. Furthermore, CAN does present a nice setup opportunity since prices have been consolidating lately for those looking for an entry point. A support zone ranging from $8.88 to $9.05 is formed by multiple trend lines and important moving averages in various time frames. On the other hand, resistance at $9.27 from a trend line in the daily time frame, but the stock may break beyond that at market open in that case, a resistance zone ranging from $9.88 to $9.99is formed by a combination of multiple trend lines.
