Canaan Inc. (CAN) is not a strong buy at the moment for a beginner investor with a long-term strategy. Despite positive revenue growth and strong Q4 performance, the stock exhibits bearish technical indicators, declining analyst price targets, and weak sentiment in options data. The company's financials also show declining net income and gross margin, which raises concerns about profitability. A hold is recommended until clearer positive trends emerge.
The technical indicators for CAN are bearish. The MACD histogram is negative and expanding downward, RSI is at 26.203 indicating oversold conditions but not a clear buy signal, and the moving averages show a bearish trend (SMA_200 > SMA_20 > SMA_5). The stock is trading near its support level (S1: 0.517), but resistance levels (R1: 0.657) are far above the current price, suggesting limited upward momentum.

Canaan Inc. reported strong revenue growth in Q4 2025, with a 121.1% YoY increase to $196.3 million. However, net income dropped to -$85 million (-8.47% YoY), and gross margin declined sharply to 7.43% (-203.77% YoY). EPS also fell by 50% YoY to -$0.01, reflecting profitability challenges despite revenue growth.
Analysts maintain 'Buy' ratings on Canaan but have significantly lowered price targets due to concerns about Bitcoin price volatility and subdued forecasts. Recent target cuts include $2 from $4 (Benchmark) and $1.50 from $3 (H.C. Wainwright).
