F&C Investment Trust PLC: FCIT Stock Strongly Rejects £877 Level 
  • FCIT stock has been in a solid downtrend throughout the year.
  • F&C Investment Trust released its H1-2023 financial report on 3 August 2023.
  • FCIT stock slid 0.23% and is trading at £869 during the intraday session.

FCIT stock has been falling since the start of 2023, indicating a downtrend trajectory throughout the year. The stock experienced a consolidation between £922 and £881 from March to May 2023. The stock price then broke out and formed a support level of £651 on 27 June 2023. 

After a slight pullback rally, FCIT stock price dropped further toward the £840 support level. Furthermore, the bullish trend caused the price to surge by 6% and retested the £895 level. Due to the heavy presence of bears at that level, the price fell again, breaking the previous support of £840 and forming an annual low of £834.

The bulls are currently marching in full force with a desire to conquer the £899 mark again. However, the ongoing downtrend represents the price constantly forming lower lows and lower highs. If the bulls succeed in their mission and retest the £899 level, this would be the first time that the downtrend gets rejected. 

On the contrary, if this spike represents only a short-term pullback and does not break the significant psychological level of £899, the FCIT stock price will fall back towards the annual low or maybe even lower towards the £820 mark.
