Not a good buy right now for an impatient trader. Despite a longer-term bullish moving-average structure, near-term momentum is weakening (negative/expanding MACD histogram) and price is trading below the key pivot (15.795) and close to support (S1 15.42). With no Intellectia buy signals today and a modestly negative 1-month pattern-based edge (-1.57%), the higher-probability setup is to wait for strength (reclaim/hold above ~15.80 and push toward 16.17+) rather than buy into a soft tape near support.
Intellectia Proprietary Trading Signals
Trend/Momentum: The broader trend reads constructive (SMA_5 > SMA_20 > SMA_200), but short-term momentum is deteriorating: MACD histogram is negative (-0.0948) and expanding lower, which often precedes further downside/sideways chop.
RSI: RSI_6 at ~43.96 is neutral-to-soft (not oversold), so there isn’t a strong mean-reversion “buy-the-dip” trigger yet.
Levels: Price 15.51 sits below the pivot (15.795). Immediate support is S1 15.42 (then S2 15.189). Resistance is R1 16.169 then R2 16.4. Near-term, the chart is in a vulnerable zone: a clean break under 15.42 increases odds of a move toward ~15.19; a reclaim above 15.80 improves the long entry quality.
Pattern-based odds: Model indicates small positive drift next day/week (+0.75% / +0.82%) but negative over the next month (-1.57%), reinforcing a “not urgent to buy today” stance.
Latest reported quarter: 2025/Q4. Revenue rose to 32.633M (+31.05% YoY), indicating strong top-line growth. However, profitability did not follow through: net income slipped to 5.204M (-1.23% YoY) and EPS fell to 0.16 (-20% YoY), implying margin/expense headwinds. Commentary from coverage also notes solid loan growth (~20% YoY) and a slight NIM improvement (up 4 bps QoQ) helped by lower deposit costs, but higher non-interest expense weighed on EPS.
Recent changes are mixed-to-positive on targets but split on stance: Roth Capital (2025-12-11) raised PT to $13 from $10 yet maintained Neutral, and its PT sits below the current price (15.51), which is a cautionary signal. Keefe Bruyette (2025-12-11) raised PT to C$20 from C$19 and kept Outperform, reflecting a more bullish fundamental view. Wall Street pros view: the bull case centers on loan growth, incremental NIM improvement, and digital-asset/stablecoin custody optionality; the bear case centers on expense pressure translating into weaker EPS and the stock’s current near-term momentum softness. Politicians/congress: no recent congress trading data available (no identifiable influential buying/selling signal from that channel).
