Home Depot Tries to Get Constructive Before CPI
Few sectors are more sensitive to interest rates (and therefore inflation) than housing. With the major consumer price index due on Thursday, it’s a good time to consider industry heavyweight Home Depot.
First, the home-improvement chain rallied after the last two CPI reports were lower than feared. Will it react similarly to another positive number?
Next, you have the tight consolidation zone between roughly $310 and $322. Notice how prices attempted to break free of this range on Wednesday.
Third, the bounce followed a test of the 50-day simple moving average (SMA). That same moving average had a potential “golden cross” above the 200-day SMA about a month ago.
Finally, this chart includes our 2 MA Ratio custom script. It keeps the default settings of the 8- and 21-day exponential moving averages (EMAs). The most recent rally pulled the fast EMA above the slow EMA, a potential sign of short-term direction turning more positive.
