Bank Bounce (C)

by | Aug 6, 2024

Yikes.

That escalated in a hurry.

As you know, the market sold off huge last Friday and did it again yesterday. It made a lot of people nervous and no stock was immune.

But there’s something interesting about quick crashes: they sometimes bounce right back.

A breakout after a crash can be a very good thing. 

And a breakout on a stock that hasn’t reported any bad news is even more enticing.

We see that possibility in Citigroup.

Here’s the chart:

Despite the knee-jerk drop, the breakout level is still nicely in place. And, as you can see, the market is roaring back today.

If the bounce-back continues, a breakout above $65 on C could lead to a powerful move.

We’ll keep an eye on it.

Happy trading,
