☆ Rallying Microsoft shares could be forming the troubling 'bear flag' chart pattern
▼ + stars: | 2024-09-19 | by ( David Keller | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

The foundation of Dow's work was based on the analysis of price trends, comparing swing highs and swing lows to define and track the trends over time. An initial look at the chart of Microsoft (MSFT) may suggest a consistent uptrend of higher highs and higher lows. And while this short-term uptrend is a valid observation, this also means Microsoft may be forming the dreaded "bear flag" pattern, which often precedes a major downdraft. A bear flag pattern occurs when you have an initial downtrend, in this case, the drop from $470 to $385 from early July to early August of this year. If MSFT would drop below $410 in the coming weeks, that would complete the bear flag pattern, and would also push the price back below the 200-day moving average.

That list includes Vertiv , GE Vernova, Trane and Eaton , which Jim Cramer described as "all very clear winners" of the increased spending on the fast-growing technology. GE Vernova, for example, creates power solutions to help data centers operate in a more environmentally friendly and sustainable way. That's because data centers require an immense amount of electricity usage to run properly, and that need is expected to intensify as more facilities are built. "That's almost a pure play on the data center," Cramer said of GE Vernova, describing shares as "one of the great horses of the year." It's a similar story for Trane, Vertiv and Eaton, which all sell products that service data centers.

Google won a legal challenge Wednesday against a €1.49 billion ($1.66 billion) antitrust fine from the European Union, while chipmaker Qualcomm failed to repeal a penalty. She scored two major wins last week: against Google in a separate case and against Apple’s tax deal with Irish authorities. The AdSense fine, one of a trio of fines that have cost Google a total of €8.25 billion ($9.18 billion), was triggered by a complaint from Microsoft in 2010. In Qualcomm’s case, the US chipmaker only managed to convince the General Court to trim its EU antitrust fine to €238.7 million from €242 million. Qualcomm, which can appeal to the European Court of Justice on points of law, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
