Its cyclical component, the economic deterioration with lower demand and the dizzying prices of electricity make up the panorama that could be seen as headwinds or almost a perfect storm for what is coming. But the truth is that Acerinox, for example, It has just presented the best results in its history in the first nine months of the year.

His analyst, Alan Spence, adjusts his estimates for the sector and the value in particular downwards
From a technical point of view, for the market analyst of Investment Strategies José Antonio Gonzálezin ArcelorMittal “the tertiary or short-term bullish rebound gains integers after the Exceeding the area of technical relevance comprised of around €22.47 / €22.205 per shareas well as from the downward guideline that starts at €25.20 per share. In this sense, a potential throwback movement can be seen at the previously proposed levels, which allows us to propose an update of the next bullish targets towards €25.20 per share, a level that is an approximation of its simple moving average of 200 periods or long term”.

And about Acerinox, José Antonio González highlights that, “Despite the registration of a new annual minimum of €7,938 per share, the accumulation of (1) falling primary supports and (2) the appearance of large secondary positive divergences, invite a buying reaction that avoids further technical deterioration until the next support of €7.108 per share. In the short term, thanks to the overcoming of the bearish guideline that starts from €9,786 and the overcoming of the last decreasing maximum that left us the price at the height of €8.65, the rebound is taking shape towards the next intermediate high of €9.30 per share”.
