Many technology stocks have been in a bear market since last fall, but On Semiconductor seems to have missed the memo.
Notice how the maker of automotive chips barely fell below its 200-day simple moving average (SMA) in April and May. That’s a potential sign of relative strength when you consider that the Nasdaq-100 and Philadelphia Semiconductor Index were about 30 percent off their highs.
Second is the bullish gap from November 1. ON tested and successfully bounced at this zone around $51.33 in late January, late April and early May. That suggests new support has been established above the previous highs.
Third is the mid-May high around $59. Prices held that level last week. Has old resistance become new support at an even higher point?
Next, MACD has been steadily rising since the beginning of last month.
Finally, Bollinger band width is inching higher after tightening. That could mean prices are getting ready to expand again.
