askSlim Technical Briefing:
The weekly cycle analysis suggests that DPZ is likely in the late stages of a rising phase and due to form an intermediate-term high. Weekly momentum is positive.
On the upside, there is an intermediate-term Fibonacci resistance zone from 328.54 – 341.12. On the downside, there is a Fibonacci support zone from 294.00 – 270.08. Our analysis suggests that for the bulls to regain control of the intermediate-term, we would likely need to see a weekly close above 359.04.
askSlim Sum of the Evidence:
DPZ is in the late stages of a rising phase with positive weekly momentum. Given these relatively strong conditions, we would expect the stock to fail in the upper short-term resistance zone beginning at 328.54. There is a likelihood the stock tests the intermediate-term support zone beginning at 294.00 by June.
