Our ALGO engine triggered a sell signal for JHX on December 27th at 22.40
It took several sessions for this trade to develop as the share price traded up to 22.80 on January 9th.
However, JHX shares have dropped over 6% this week and posted a low of $21.32 in early trade today.
A sharp drop in US Housing starts overnight has added to the potential downside pressure on the share price.
Single family housing starts declined by 8.2% in December to 1.19 million units. This is the largest monthly decline in 2 years and could further soften the JHX share price.
We see the next level of support at $21.00 followed by the mid-November low of $20.55.
