Not a good buy right now for an impatient investor. Despite upbeat analyst commentary around the Google AI glasses catalyst and very call-skewed options positioning, WRBY’s near-term technicals are weakening (bearish MACD expansion, price breaking down toward support) and insider selling has accelerated. I would wait for a clear reversal/hold above support before buying; at current levels it’s a “do not chase” setup.
Trend/price action: WRBY closed at 25.90 (-5.03% regular session) and is trading down into/near first support (S1 ~25.312). Momentum: MACD histogram is negative (-0.336) and expanding lower, indicating downside momentum is strengthening. RSI(6) ~39.8 (neutral-to-weak), consistent with a stock drifting toward oversold but not yet showing a reversal signal. Moving averages are converging (no strong trend support from MAs). Levels: Immediate support 25.31 then 24.48; resistance/pivot 26.66, then 28.01. With price below the pivot and MACD deteriorating, the technical setup favors more chop-to-down unless support holds and momentum improves.
Intellectia Proprietary Trading Signals
Analyst upgrades/target hikes in December point to a stronger 2026 backdrop and improved growth outlook.
Event-driven catalyst highlighted by Citizens: Google AI glasses launch on Warby’s platform, with Google reportedly committing $75M to cover launch expenses—could lift estimates and sentiment.
Revenue still growing (Q3 +15.19% YoY), supporting the long-term growth narrative.
Near-term technical breakdown risk: strong down day and bearish MACD expansion while approaching support (25.31/24.48).
Insider activity: insiders are selling and selling amount increased 248.24% over the last month (negative signal for near-term confidence).
Profitability volatility: Q3 net income and EPS fell sharply YoY, and gross margin edged down.
Pattern-based forward probabilities in the dataset lean slightly negative over the next week/month (-2.44% / -2.11%).
Latest quarter: 2025/Q3. Revenue rose to $221.68M (+15.19% YoY), showing continued topline growth. However, net income dropped to $5.87M (-244.25% YoY) and EPS fell to $0.05 (-266.67% YoY), indicating profits are not scaling consistently. Gross margin slipped to 54.11% (-0.70% YoY), a mild but unfavorable trend for operating leverage.
Recent trend: After several price-target cuts in early November following a noted slowdown in revenue trends (e.g., UBS to $20 Neutral; Goldman still Buy but cut to $27; multiple firms citing uncertainty), sentiment improved meaningfully in December with an upgrade and multiple target increases (Citizens upgrade to Outperform $30; Baird to $35 Outperform; Telsey to $32 Outperform; Stifel raised to $25 Hold). Wall Street ‘pro’ view: a credible 2026 catalyst (AI glasses) and potential re-acceleration in growth. ‘Con’ view: recent demand softness and questions on sustaining mid-teens growth look-through, plus valuation/retail economics risk and choppy profitability. Influential/political trading: no congress trading data available in the last 90 days; no politician activity provided.
