Airbnb Could Be Planning a Trip NorthLike millions of Americans, Airbnb has been cooped up for a long time. But now the room-sharing stock could be planning a trip north.
The first pattern on today’s chart is the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) climbing toward the 200-day SMA. At its current pace, a “golden cross” could take place within a week. That may suggest that the longer-term trend is turning positive. The 8-day exponential moving average (EMA) has also remained above the 21-day EMA for the last month.
Next is the downward-sloping trendline that’s held ABNB in place since November. Prices are now squeezing between this resistance and the 50- and 200-day SMAs below. Is a breakout coming?
Speaking of a potential breakout, Bollinger band width has narrowed to its tightest reading in three months. Such compression could be followed by price expansion.
That could be especially true when you consider conditions in the travel industry. Delta Air Lines jumped after issuing strong with strong guidance on April 13. (Notice ABNB’s high-volume candle the same day.) Yesterday also featured breakouts in hotel stocks like Marriott and Hilton , which saw heavy call activity on March 29 .
ABNB's earnings are due May 3 – four weeks before Memorial Day kicks off the summer holiday season.
