Bias

BUY

Catalysts

  • Structural downtrend intact — MDT remains below both the 50- and 200-day SMAs, and both averages are declining. The path of least resistance on a multi-month horizon is still downward until proven otherwise.
  • Near-term momentum has improved — The RSI has recovered from oversold to neutral, and the MACD is positive for the first time since early 2026. This suggests selling exhaustion, at least temporarily.
  • Critical test at the 50-day SMA (~$78.40) — The stock ended June essentially right at this level. A decisive break above with follow-through would target the $80–$82 zone (Bollinger upper band). A rejection would risk retesting the June lows near $73.

Risks

  • Event-driven repricing risk if expectations diverge from incoming evidence.
