Twitter Stock Forecast
This move corrects a lot of the recent fall and brings Twitter's stock back to where it was trading in November of last year. Now Twitter is near resistance at $52, a high volume area shown by the large volume bars to the right of our chart below. Also, this is where the 200-day moving average stands and so adds to the resistance profile. This may stall the move for now until further clarity on what Elon Musk intends to do with the stake if anything. Support is at $40.
