JD Chart
JD data by YCharts
Weak Technicals
The chart shows the stock is approaching technical support of around $22.80. Should the price fall below that level, the stock may drop to around $20.
The relative strength index (RSI) is sending warning signals, too. It's been trending lower since peaking in the spring of 2017. Even with the RSI now at oversold levels around 30, the trend has not changed. It suggests that bullish momentum is leaving the stock.
Bearish Options Bets
The $24 puts for expiration on March 15 suggest the stock will drop to around $21. At that strike price, the number of bearish puts outweighs the bullish calls by a ratio of almost 4 to 1.
Reducing Estimates
Analysts have lowered third-quarter earnings estimates by about 4% over the past month and now see earnings falling by more than 32%. Revenue estimates have also dropped.
